ive notice that when you put your cross hairs of your binoculars on a target you can hit it with no problem you should make it shaky when you look threw your binoculars

I've noticed that too, if you are using ironsights and you center the binoculars on a target - since you fire the gun in BF2 engine from the center of your screen...
Ends up being a near perfect shot...
Don't think you could make binos sway though.... any sort of sway seems very very hard to code and or hardcoded
Though I agree centering a shot with binos is a bit unrealistic

Removing the crosshair in the binos could solve this exploit. Then again, that will make it harder to accuratly Q spot enemies. Do people really do this? That's sad.

I like this idea, simple solutions are the best

because IRL u cant line the lines up on the binos. then wip ur rifle out and without aiming shoot perfectly accurate at the target

Just put the crosshair a bit lower or higher. Doesnt look unrealistic, but makes these shots impossible.

You mean you didn't check to see if it'd been posted before posting another? Odd! Anyways, have deleted the duplicate.
And yeah, it's the same with SOFLAMs too...

Common guys.
Is it really that hard?
Instead of removing the binos corsshair, just put it a little off center.

actually u can use your binoculars as scopes in RL. U just put the binocular on top of the rifle(or other firearm eg rocket launcher) and fire. Ofcourse u cant get a close to perfect shot in but its at least "supported" in RL.

Yep, good luck trying that in real life. Have you ever fired a gun?

1. that would fail...... hard...
2. in bf2 the binos are not support on the weapon r they?
3. in bf2 u can get a perfect shot from doing it which is HIGHLY un realistic
