ya ya , 3d scopes are hardcoded because you cant have more than 1 level of zoom on screen yada yada....
but i was thinking, what would it look like (if possible) to have 3d scope and all screen zoomed to 4x (or what ever the scope is) but have around scope slightly blurred to bring the attention away from the fact its zoomed in.
might be slightly better looking than all black screen.

I thought about it once, I dunno though. Would be cool to try it out and get some comparison shots.

guess so, then add the 4x zoom inside the 3d scope along with zoom outside and that ^^ or a blur like it to detract from the fact your avatar has uber zoom eyes.

Yea, REad, he's talking more about taking an ACOG, turning into a 3d sights, then adding the 4x zoom to it, even though you'd see the rest of your screen as 4x.

Yeah, I believe they explain why they won't be using that shader in that thread, which had something to do with the gunner views in bombers & helos..

But the rest of the screen is blurred like with the FH2 motion blur.
I'm all for this, anything to get over the black screen scopes that really become boring...
Motion blur on ironsights would be good too.
What do DEVs think?

i wouldn't mind having the area around the scope zoomed and blurred. would be nicer than to have all of your screen black.
i photoshopped some porn btw

And let's not forget to zoom in on the weapon, too.

Does anyone have a picture of the m68 aimpoint as it is ingame (full screenshot, 4:3, HUD and everything)? Give that to me, and I can put out an image exactly like what OP is trying to get across.

I see your point, I thought about it before and it would be more realistic.

Its nicer then the black screen it would add alot on the cosmetics even if you cant see much with the blur.

That's what I was trying to draw attention to.

you mean you cant just replace the black screen around the scope with a blur or something to that effect?
