im not really sure what has changed, but it seems like when you fire your gun in VR, your bullets are interacting with the invisible wall that keeps us out of the firing range, this also happens when firing off of the platform at other targets
Invisible wall bug is not just in VR but on continents as well. Test at the Warp Gate for example. Seems like a recent phenomenon, no doubt just one more thing SOE broke while squashing other bugs.
True, It makes test shooting alomst useless because bullet hit effect covers large part of the targeting scope/RDS. Not to mention testign things like Comet, that seem to explode right after leaving the gun.
