Should SAW kits get a ACOG or Aimpoint Scope?

CanuckCommander · Post by **CanuckCommander** » 2008-03-19 03:27

It is most realistic to have a scope for SAW (Squad Automatic Weapons) kits for all modern armies. Though maybe on some maps that stress CQB, the scope can be removed. Some of you might argue that this poses as a balancing issue since SAW guns are already too powerful. There are disadvantages that come with scopes. Namely, the increased recoil while looking through a magnified image.

Opionions? P.S. this is my first post here! Saying hello from Canada EH!

WOOT!canadian C9 with scope. Note that most Canadian issued rifles come with standard scopes. GO CANADA!

Wow, scoped SAWs do look great, but I'd see more SAW snipers personally. :/

you're going to get people crying about balance, when really PR should be where the coalition forces should win unless totally over-ran by better strategies.

Aimpoint yes, should have same magnification as ironsights. Acog no.

Too much work for something people on the receiving end will ***** about IMHO. Already suggested too.

no, because the saw gunner's challange is now no longer one. He is with a scope and automatic sniper. At least now it takes skill and it is really balanced as of now.

well the canadian forces should get a scope on the saw and most other weapons, but for the other armys i am not sure. i will be some what angry if the canadian forces dont get a scope on the c9, if i can remember right eggman said everything should be made as real as possible and the mappers should balance it out and i agree 100%.

If they get any type of scope, the deviation should be extreme as they are meant to suppress the enemy, in-game atleast.

I would like to see a scope, it might make them less effective at CQB. But wouldn't they have to reskin the m249 and type ?? for the chinese? I think it isn't really a priority since the SAW does its job well already.
