woa woa. hold it lol. NO iron sights on mounted support weapons??? WTF this cant be true. Why not. every support weapon has a form of aiming reticle thus so should the ones in PR. I would like a dev to explain why they will not be implementing this in to the game.

Also id like to add. Either default is blind shooting and right click is the reticle or its ONLY using the reticle. I dont want any support weapons to ONLY have blind shooting. Its not common practice in the forces because its a waste of ammo and not to mention somtimes the first shot is the only shot you get.

Im an idiot who replyed about the wrong topic because i did not read the post correctly.

what you gonna dooo :shock:

Look it guys. We are going to be adding sights and such when we get to it. So there really is no reason to be adding this poll. You'll just have to wait a bit. PRMM probably won't have them, but once we get to making our own graphics and so forth, everything should be cool. Please let us get the bulk of stuff taken care of so we can work on the details you guys seem to be grilling us on...

In reply to all concerning mounted mg crosshairs, we have heard the complaints about the lack of crosshairs/iron sights on mounted MGs We are in the works of implementing an easier way to aim, if not we'll put crosshairs back(but only when zoomed).

Iron sights, although won't be implemented in the MINI-MOD, will be implemented sometime in the future of PR. We can't do everything at once. I mean, we could always close BETA PR for about a year or so until it's done, but I don't think that'd be fair to the community. ;)

Please be patient.

Leave it as it is now. I find it relatively easy to point the centre of my screen at targets quite easy even on longer distances.
Especially when zoomed.
So there is no need to bring back the crosshairs for mounted machineguns.
An exception might be the firingports on the APCs.

Iron Sights yes, crosshairs no, and yes, some sort off reticle for firing ports on APCs, Personally, I'd like to see you using your personal weapon for well in the APCs, and be looking out the port.
