Ballistics CPU - Black Ops 2 Attachment Guide

Facebook: http://facebook.com/XboxAhoy Twitter: http://twitter.com/xboxahoy In this episode we're covering the Ballistics CPU. Black Ops 2 marks this attachment's first entry to the Call of Duty series - although its effects are similar to Modern Warfare 3's Stability weapon proficiency. In-real life, bullets can be unpredictable things: once they leave a weapon's barrel, they're subject to gravity, altitude, wind speed and drag - and the longer the shot, the more variables that will prove significant. In recent years, military snipers have started to make use of handheld PDA ballistic units to provide some assistance on the targeting front: automatically accounting for atmospheric conditions and the local windspeed to help nail a very long range shot the very first time. As snipers often rely on first-shot precision, this enhancement to accuracy is often worth the investment: and it's likely that in the future we'll see such electronics fully integrated into a sniper rifle system. The Ballistics CPU is available exclusively to the Sniper Rifle category - no other weapon class may equip it. It is incompatible with the close-range optics available for the sniper rifles: you cannot pair the CPU with either the ACOG scope, nor the Ballista's Iron Sight. The attachment's effect is very straightforward, with no downsides whatsoever: your rifle's idle sway while scoped in will be reduced by 30%. This will make it easier to wrest your crosshairs onto target without the need to hold your breath, and as such can prove useful for uninterrupted coverage of a sightline with your one-shot rifle. One nice touch is the LCD display on the CPU - it shows not only the calibre of the weapon you're currently using, but also comes equipped with a digital rangefinder, indicating the distance in feet to the target ahead. The Ballistics CPU is a universally beneficial attachment that will make your sniper rifle easier to handle. Its sway-reducing effect
