Hi, I am new to the game, but played old MW games MW 1-3.

I was playing for the first time and I notice that I don't fire at my cross hair. I am use to getting lock to fire my missile but it doesn't seem to fire at the locked target. But what really thros me is when I fire my Medium Laser and it doesn't shoot at where I place my cross hair. One time I shoot in like a 45 degree line, no where near my cross hair..

In MW Online, is all weapon fire based on lock/target? Is there a way to active dumb fire mode for lasers and other LOS weapons (like AC, PPC, and Guass)?

On another fireing weapon note, in the other MW I play I can group what weapon fire what, how do I do that here? How about a chain fire group where it will cycle through the chain?

Thanks for any info.

It depends on where the weapons are. You have TWO crosshairs - a + and an o
The + is the cross hair for the torso mounted weapons, the o is the cross hair for arm mounted weapons.

It can also be a bit confusing because the o crosshair always has the seeking weapon (LRM, SSRM) reticule on it, even if the seeking weapon is torso mounted.
