    Optical sights preview (see before you buy)

    Alright so, ashamed to see there isn't any proper way to get a preview of sight reticles before purchase, I thought of a list of screenshots where people could check what a particular sight looks like, so here it is:

    M21 Reflex 1x
    Reflex Small 1x
    Reflex Full 1x
    Reflex Open 1x
    Assault 1.5x
    Assault 3.5x
    4x PSO-1
    4x SUSAT
    Phantom 1-4x
    Sniper 4x / 3-9x / 2.5-12x
    Sniper 6x



    Side note to Ubi: the Sniper 2.5-12x would actually be worth its price tag if it used the same reticle as the Sniper 6x.

    Actually, there sort of is for the 1x scopes and ironsights.You simply rotate the gun and adjust the focal point in buy mode. It's not as pretty as you'd like, but the 3rd person sight models of the ironsights and aimpoints are fully functional. I'll grab some irons today.

    It doesn't work for all sights, and the only one that has the correct scale is the Reflex Open 1x. All others appear proportionally smaller than they truly are in first-person view. And I don't need ironsight pictures, but thanks for the offer.

    I was referring to the sight picture :P

    Try Mk 16 CQC sights, and feel my pain, for example <_<

    Literally, the rear sight post is less than half a centimeter in diameter, and they expect us to aim with it =_=

    Hell, I just checked that out, dаmn it's small. It is its real-life size, but military people that designed it deserve a slap to the face. Unless the eye is supposed to be enough close to it so both rear and front sights appear proportionally the same size, which is definitely not the case in GRO.

    But still, I would grab another gun and rack up enough RP until I could afford a Reflex Open for it. It's definitely the best type of gun to use that sight with.

    a very very faint version of this

    I'll take a SS nexttime i hop into a game

    I've manually edited the settings down, as I care only for gameplay and not graphics (oh and something about my computer being really bad)

    I would really like to get a screenshot of the Phantom 1-4x, if anyone reading this has it.
