Hey,


Regarding the SAWs "4x zoom," I don't understand what this means.. I only get a fully scoped zoom and a zoom that brings the gun up to my shoulder. Can someone clarify all of this for me?


Thanks

The deployed mode will give you a 4x zoom when you sight in.

The undeployed mode will bring it to your shoulder.

All LMGs have a 4x zoom when you use the mode that uses the 4x zoom, except for the insurgent PKM because having such a zoom would push insurgents towards the type of gameplay that is unintended.

It is magnification level, in this case it is 4x (times). Correct me if I am wrong.

4x zoom refers to the amount the full zoom...zooms. If something is 100m away when you are looking normally, it'll look like it's 25m away through the scope, or 4 times closer. If it were a 10x zoom, it'd look like it was 10m away.

AFAIK all Rifle scopes in-game are 4x, while snipers are higher, not sure of the scale though.

must be confused by the "4x" instead of "x4" I guess

...my head hurts now

when in deployed mode can you fire without sighting in?

This post totally put 2 and 2 together for me. Thanks waldo ii!

Also thanks to everyone else who replied.






P.S., waldo ii, your Blackshark video is a good one.
