Agreed. Accuracy is too high in this system, since we can’t dodge or duck and combat ranges are very close. If the aiming reticle is about the size of a head, crouching behind cover just means you’ll get hit in the head instead of the chest.
I talk about this in more detail in this topic:
You make excellent points about cover and its short comings. My suggestion is to reduce accuracy, and make aimed shots a thing.
