MEC G3A3 Grenadier scope is bugged

The MEC grenadier ^ reticule is incorrect, the rounds are actually hitting slightly below the crest of the ^
I'm sure the DEV's know about it, this is more to let people know why they're missing with this rifle as I am constantly having to tell people in my squad that it's bugged after they ask "why are my bullets not hitting at the top of the ^ ?"
Pants out.

is this the rifle part (that shoots bullets) or the UGL part cos they are really 2 different weapons, code wise. take it you mean the rifle but just checking.

Yeah, he's right. I just checked.
All other G3's are fine, it's just the UGL variant.
Good find, will fix for 0.85.

Wow...thought the DEV's knew about this already... I knew about this from day 1 and mentioned it several times in my .8 rants. Glad to see that it's being fixed though.
I should get some un-ban points for finding this, or at least some positive infraction points as I will inevitably be banned again sometime in the future.

Oh really? did you think we may not tend to look for possible bugs in rant topics when everybodys rants are more or less the same thing ie, deviation, sprint etc it dose kinda get pointless reading them all when the difference between them are marginal...
if you have a bug, make a new topic and post it in here, makes a huge difference.

Why are you coming at me with such an attitude? I'm trying to make this game better and you diss me for tellin' it like it is....
I mentioned it SEVERAL times, NOBODY picked up on it, its the MOD's fault for not kicking that info up to you, not mine. You're lucky I even bothered to make a thread because I can't BELIEVE that this slipped through the cracks.....

Is there a similar problem with the MEC marksman?
Or maybe im just that bad, but i couldnt hit shizzle at more than 70m (except a friendly, who i tested it out on in frustration).
...mongol...

if only we had £1 for every useless argument on the internet, world hunger, poverty etc would be gone forever.

sorry I didn't notice you where the original poster of this topic. From the sounds of your other post it sounds like you said "I said this ages ago and you are all nubs for not reading though my huge topic to find this little bug" and I was saying you should make a topic in here about it if you have a bug to report, not include it in a rant, which you evntually did.

We have almost 23k members on this forum, god knows how many posts and topics are being posted every day and its very hard to read all of them, try it.

thread fulfilled its purpose and it straying off-topic. Locked.
Chuc, that was in the repo. Make sure you're checking the UGL version.
