PLA and UK, light AT optics.

Dose anyone else think the PLA and UK got a bit gimped with their light AT optical sights? Both just have a big circle to aim with, this is incredibly useless when you're try to hit a small/moving/distant target. The USMC and MEC have nice small cross hairs which give you pin point accuracy.
What do you think?

Agreed, they need a smaller reticle, maybe something for a future release.

See THIS thread for the correct optics.

Do you know what the LAW 80 sight looks like or the SRAW?
I don't mind if they're not perfectly accurate, I'm just concerned about balance.

I detest the AT-4 sights. Not a big fan of the LAW80's, either.

I like the PLA's LAW, and the RPG-7 is fine.

With the LAW I tend to overshoot because of the reticle (unless really close)

AT4 sights are horrible to use.

The AT4 sights are realistic, even though the way they are modelled now you would hit a bit to the right if Im not wrong...

To be honest, i find the current optics fine, if you are trying to hit a small target 500+ metres away.....hang on, why the hell are you firing anti tank weapons at infantry?, heathen!!!! :P

Unless they either supprise me, or are in a bunker, I don't fire the Light AT stuff at infantry -- normally I fire it into the back of the light transports, or smack a chopper with them.

I agree though, the light AT with the circle is jsut not good at longer ranges.

An update on this: I was playing today and had 2 situations where the optics on the PLA light AT ruined my plan. First I had to kill an APC that was down 50% so I get my AT out and start aiming. Before I could decide that the APC was in the middle of the sight (it was far away) it shot me!. Then later I had a shot at an enemy rally point but due to the optics I missed! This never happens with the USMC and MEC optics and the UK optics are even worse!
