Blind aim is when the player is hiding behind something (either crouching or standing) and they fire their weapon while at the edge of that cover. While it is more effective with protecting one-selves blind aim is less accurate as the reticule increases in size faster than with standard aim. With blind aim enemies mainly can only shoot at the player's arm. The only weapons that maintain effectiveness is explosives (e.g. molotovs, grenades, and the rocket launcher). Shooting accurately can be ''sometimes'' annoying, though. If you are at the middle of a row of boxes and are trying to shoot, sometimes the game forces you to shoot from the edges of the boxes. | Blind aim is when the player is hiding behind something (either crouching or standing) and they fire their weapon while at the edge of that cover.
