i dont know if people still do this but ive seen it and some times done it where you put your cross hairs on a target and then take out your iron sights and snipe a guy
maybe it might be more realistic just to move it to the bottom right
i heard they dont even work so right now its just being used to take advantage of the dead center cross hairs

I saw it was removed during the brief beta test, at least for insurgents. *gets a stone cold look from octo*

anyway you can still aim with your commo rose, it is perfectly centered

I'm totally for it if you remove the prejudice of no scopes for insurgent.
With only 1 worthless enfield sniper and 1 poorly scoped marksman, I think it would be unfair to remove the only way insurgents have of hitting a non-moving target long range.
Atleast make Dragunov the sniper and remove the enfield, I've never seen nothing but afghan farmers use enfields.
They'd rather use their hunting rifles before that. Iraqi Resistance that is.
Marksman kit could be something like a long barrel AK with a scope
Hows that. Could be semi auto al quds, even tho its not exactly what they use. (its really just a moded AK47 with a long barrel and a scope)

Please do remove the binoculars being used for scopes.

But wait, we are going to have to take away the gamers' monitors, and their sharpies too! I understand that it is exploitable and to some degree unrealistic, in the context that real soldiers don't have a center of their screen to measure their sights. Crosshairs in the middle of the screen are just as realistic as on the side and bottom. And gamers can always just mark the center of their screens with a sharpie and use that while zoomed in with the binoculars. It's one of those things that just can't be realistic in a game that is exploitable. I think it's best to just wink and forget.
I disagree completely Anything that can be exploited should if possible be fixed.
