* Weapons in The Darkness 2 are really precise, even automatic ones. 
* The problem, however, is that the built-in game crosshair is imprecise.
* The solution? Install a third-party crosshair overlay!

That brings us to the second issue. In Windows 10 and 11 most crosshair overlays 
fail to draw over games, but there is one that works for the vast majority of 
games. It's name is Crosshair V2, it's completely free and minimalistic, has an
imperceptibly small impact on your computer resources, and it can be found in 
the Microsoft Store and it's a small app, which you can then pin to the taskbar
after launching in through Microsoft Store.

Follow the instructions on the top-right window that opens with the app to 
configure desired shape, color and size of the crosshair, and then press F2 to 
hide the helper window. To exit the crosshair, either press F2 to make the 
helper window reappear then press F3, or right-click on its icon in the tray 
and click Exit.

Using this crosshair overlay you'll find the game much easier to play with 
guns, as wherever you point your crosshair, even with automatic weapons and
even if the enemies are far away, you will hit them reliably as your shots 
arrive dead-on where the crosshair points. Much better and precise than the
wide and approximate game's crosshair.

Enjoy!
