Benching is only used in gunfights, gunfights only happen when all chances of rp has gone. With this in mind, how does bench sniping stop roleplay?

A) You're basically invulnerable benching - just fly away from the danger. On foot sniping, there's terrain restrictions on firing positions allowing targets to deduce and locate shots, possibly sending a party to sneak up to you etc.

B) Helicopters are heavy machinery, they vibrate, they move, this is the very reason weapons on attack helicopters have fire control systems. The sway simply replicates this to an extent rather than arma's flawed simulation.

C) The change didn't prevent bench sniping, it simply made it harder. It simply requires a higher level of skill to hit your shots correctly.

D) The change has been live for 3+ months with no complaints until now, to me that says the implementation felt like a natural mechanic - only being noticed when compared directly with the base-game's flawed simulation.

D) bench sniping is rare hence why it took us 3 months to realise you sneaked it in.

D) Then where's the issue if you personally don't do it anyway?

I mean benching is the type of thing thats very useful in certain situations but certainly not every situation , i do it from time to time and i dont mind the change to add a bit of sway in like you said it now requires some skill which for me is fine. Just wish this change was actually in the change log when it got added that is all.

Ive noticed it some time, but just thought the pilot was bad (ask ACC DAVE). But when it happens with like 5 different pilots over time, you know something is wrong, and its rarely used. But now thats another thing getting removed/changed without even be put in the log...

"Helicopters are heavy machinery, they vibrate, they move, this is the very reason weapons on attack helicopters have fire control systems. The sway simply replicates this to an extent rather than arma's flawed simulation." Thats just bs, i've personally shot from helicopter while hunting, and a good pilot can hold her way steadier than this crappy sway. Vibrations, sure, but sway like you've been running full speed for 30 minutes? Hell no

"You're basically invulnerable benching - just fly away from the danger. On foot sniping, there's terrain restrictions on firing positions allowing targets to deduce and locate shots, possibly sending a party to sneak up to you etc."

Thats not true either. As soon as you know there's a bench and call it out, not even 1 minute later position of the bench is located, called out and shot at.
