You could have saved testing time and just ask
Of course, cover does work in OG, OXC and OXCE.
As an OXCE dev, I can 100% confirm that cover works as designed and as expected.
The whole misunderstanding is just who considers what being "cover", who considers what being "realistic", and so on...
It's all just definitions and terminology.
Thank you. But it was really interesting for me to check for myself.
jnarical was very persistent and convincing when he came to my Discord server and began to prove that "shelters don't work." He gave formulas, drew diagrams on pieces of paper and sent photos. Although this contradicted my personal experience and the experience of people from the Russian-language chat on the game. jnarical argued that it only seems to us that shelters work, that this is cognitive bias and self-persuasion. If I had asked you, I would have received two contradictory statements. You would say that they work, jnarical - that they do not work. Both you and he would be referring to the game code. I thought the only sure way to find out the truth was to take the test myself. I conducted it and made sure that the shelters really work. It's harder to hit a fighter behind cover. The fact that not all bullets fly into the shelter itself seems to me quite reasonable. If you aim at an ear sticking out from behind a tree, it is logical that some of the bullets will fly not into the tree, but in the other direction from this ear, i.e. past.
I apologize if I write with mistakes or use the wrong words - English is not my native language.
