What if you pick up a dead left handed soldiers weapon and his side mounted sight is on the wrong side? ---

I was referring to [http://cloud-4.steamusercontent.com/ugc/3298070082171185779/75FA4970CA26E6C1489BA070C46DAD89EE8D6C99/](http://cloud-4.steamusercontent.com/ugc/3298070082171185779/75FA4970CA26E6C1489BA070C46DAD89EE8D6C99/) and the normal user is [http://cloud-4.steamusercontent.com/ugc/3298070082171182745/467419135EC72672A3961E2D43AD9251005AD56B/](http://cloud-4.steamusercontent.com/ugc/3298070082171182745/467419135EC72672A3961E2D43AD9251005AD56B/) Also, people seem to think that this is a less used feature , but I don’t believe that and the most of the people I know who play cs use the left hand. In fact, if you are talking about things then half the bf4 players are just infantry , even after being 140 they don’t no how to ride a tank imo > [@Loqtrall](#): > > It takes up programming and coding time that could be used elsewhere (on more important aspects of the game) to cater to an infinitesimally small number of people that would actually use that feature. It would not take much extra coding but possibly just some small stuff because the gun is just being rendered at a different position. Also playing games does nothing at all, why play at all? > [@Jihad\_Jockey](#): > > What if you pick up a dead left handed soldiers weapon and his side mounted sight is on the wrong side? It is just a render for your player, spectators and other players will see the gun with the setup they have > [@zePokar1](#): > > Go in CS GO and play with your gun model on the left if you are right-handed, it’s disturbing really. It does not matter if you are left or right, they say it has something to do with eye dominance imo. I don’t know but left feels good ---

Talking from a technical side, if there’s mom option already, it would introduce a lot of possible bugs due to how the engine manages animations and other stuff So, while I’m all in in being inclusive, I think right now we wish for a near perfect game, or as close as bug-free as possible, not something that could undermine dev time for a only-esthetic option (since a lefty can play the game properly right now) [Previous page](https://battlefieldforum.co/t/left-handed-mode/101500.md?page=1)
