Hey guys
So with Hotfix Charlie we trialed changing the sniper rifle crosshair. Please leave your feedback on the change in this thread.
Initial impressions point us to people not liking the change other than on the Tactical series of sniper rifles. At this stage, we would be looking to revert to the old crosshair on all sniper rifles other than the Tactical snipers, which would retain the new crosshair.

So uh, I decided to do a bit more messing around and I think I might have found our option C.
(I'll update the OP to include these)
So now here's the question. Keep the current one on any variants, use this new one on certain variants, or revert to the old one on some variants.
(For those wondering, the dot in the centre is smaller than the old dot, and the crosshair only lights up when the dot in the middle is over a target)

Love that it fixes the circle's "false positive" problem (red crosshairs, missed shot). Can you by chance show us what it looks like at 200+ meters?

Smaller dot would allow for even more precision..
However..
You might lose track of it on daytime maps easier.. With the additional lines you may end up cluttering up your view from long range..
(It looks nice this time I'll give you that)
I'm still on board for selling multiple variants for each sniper rifle with the different reticles.
This would make EVERYONE HAPPY.
It's easy enough to push the extra lines on the crosshair further away from the dot. if that's a concern. Losing track of the dot on daytime maps is also a concern I have, but hopefully the extra lines should help point you to where it should be.

Symbioticforks wrote:Like again, it looks good..
Just imagine tracking a target moving on a rooftop.. from left to right.. you line up for a head shot..
but the horizontal lines are partially obscuring your view..
(or imagine "more lines" when you're trying to focus one guy surrounded by his buddies.. think 1 logi 3 heavies)
I really don't like clutter.
Thanks for the reply.
How about offering multiple variations of the guns for sale with each of the reticles?
Is this not a possibility?
Technically a possibility, but it would seriously clutter up the market. I'm fine with having different crosshair types for the different variants of sniper rifles (as they need to be different guns anyway) but adding different types just for the crosshair is something I'm not a real fan of doing.
On another note, how does this look? Like I was saying, I can push out the size a bit for the extra lines

Also would it be possible to increase the zoom's for all snipers to the thale's zoom?
Sniper Zoom is a discussion best left to a different topic that will be appearing later on.

No, the two can not be combined. It's one or the other.

No, the Thales is based off the standard Sniper Rifle. The Balac's Sniper is based off the Tactical variant.
