Secondly, grab an assault rifle, hug a wall, now lean out while aiming down the sights. Now fire that assault rifle while leaning. Think about it. That is far from realistic and physically not possible without getting your face blown off or your back ****ed up. The view you get while leaning in games is more of a head peak and would only be realistic if your character puts his gun down and takes a look briefly to get his bearings on his enemies' location. Any maneuver that a marine performs that requires him to shoot is not performed while leaning. That is just bad gun use. Marines look, spot their target, pop-up then shoot. I'm sure any trained military does the same. Al Qaeda can do whatever they want. Half the time they don't even look at what they are shooting at. Maybe when there is an Al Qaeda point of view, to be more realistic, they can randomly jump the impact reticle around and not give you sights at all allowing you to only fire from your hip. Hey at least it's realism ... amiright?
If you've reached the area where you have to reach the sub in 2 minutes ... doing that on veteran ... lean just gives you a bullet to your face.
Also, lean in multiplayer using halfway decent people also gets you a bullet to your face.
