Re: Refex sight up grade. Poll
Pros use irons/reflex. Same accuracy with greater speed. You just need to learn to aim.
Chuc, your proto is somewhat good, but might that not be a bit too much? Some kind of middle ground could be nice.

you have got me interested[R-DEV]MAINERROR wrote:I'm always glad to be allowed to take the medic kit because I like the ironsight more than the ACOG. I also shoot enemies far out with the iron sight too.
To fix the widescreen distortion just play in window mode with your favorite resolution.
What exactly have you done?, how Did you get widescreen with out the distortion? And the correct field of view?. Can you tell me what to do?.
Iv been playing around with the PR properties, at first i did not get any good results.
but then i changed it to read/ +menu 1 +widescreen 1 +szx 1440 +szy 900,
But im still suspect im still getting distortions or the correct FOV.

Re: Refex sight up grade. Poll
The iron sights/red dots lack the presicion adjustment needed for long range. Plus the enemy troops start to look like a few pixels past 200 meters or so for me, and this really messes up long range shooting. However i can still use the irons (preffered) and red dot at 200 meters but not much longer. I find i'm always hitting the target more with the irons than the ACOG, since i'm more of a fire-and-manuever player, rather than stand there for 10 seconds and fire.

Dont blame the game, blame the player
I have no trouble hitting enemies with irons, as long as i can see them. They are effective up to 100m, and its not even hard to kill someone from +250m. And it is just as accurate as scope, u just cant see enemies so well. I use usually irons, and there is nothing wrong with them.

Could we get a comparison photo? To me it looks the same as the old one, but then again I don't use it that much so theres a high probability I don't know wtf I'm talking about.

Awesome 
I know Chuc that you personally preferred the HUD-type Red dot, but I think this way looks and in more cases performs better than it's current counterpart.

Re: Refex sight up grade. Poll
IMHO it's wrong all the way. When using red-dot IRL you keep your both eyes open so pretty much all you see is the dot, not the scope.
As for the ironsights - there should be slight zoom when aiming, after all IRL you focus your eyes on the target so I don't see any reason why it should still be still as hard to see/hit when not aiming at all.

Re: Refex sight up grade. Poll
But then you turn around slower. What makes ironsights very good on close range is the fact that your movement isn't suffering as much when zoomed in. (Ingame, I mean)
You're right about that eye stuff, but that's just impossible while still having 3D ironsights/reddots. You could move it closer to the eye though.

All we need is a red dot in the middle of the screen when aiming with red-dot sights. Or you don't want it to be realistic?Spec_Operator wrote: You're right about that eye stuff, but that's just impossible while still having 3D ironsights/reddots. You could move it closer to the eye though.

Re: Refex sight up grade. Poll
I wish the iron sights of normal weapons would be more like the enfield one.
Its very thin so its easier to hit a target at 100+ meters.

Re: Refex sight up grade. Poll
The sights should recieve a little zoom (1.5x?) to help improve resolution at range. I think this would help.

Re: Refex sight up grade. Poll
it would be good to put in especially for people who dont have huge screens or can run the game and OMG resolutions
just bring the sights closer to the screen
or a bit of a zoom in
just bring the sights closer to the screen

Re: Refex sight up grade. Poll
damn necroes. if brought closer to the screen the cqb would be hindered. the biggest problem is that we can never approach the details that the eye can capture (272 megapixels of detail)

Locked for necro.
The key to modernising any weapon is covering them in glue and tossing them in a barrel of M1913 rails until they look "Modern" enough.
