DUST Search - Scopes

Maybe make the scopes like militia items, need no skills and don't disappear if you die. Just can be selected from different styles for personal preference, with the same zoom. So if you liked the style of one ar scope, but another ar, they could be swapped.

Maybe have skill for this(weapon optics?), unlock scope changing at lv1, other levels allow +1 to zoom each. Allow reducing scope zoom if desired. This would be done in fitting screen for each weapon. Or, it could be unlocked by sharpshooting skills.

Weapon upgrades is for modules that add to damage/range/accuracy. It would be nice if there was a number of weapon upgrades applied to the weapons themselves, rather then taking slots in suit. They would have to share stacking penalties with the suit modules though.

I think the maps, some at least, will be much larger with release. CCP also keeps adding to games after release, instead of making a dust 2 they will just add features and upgrades to dust. EvE gets a free expansion twice a year, some of these expansions added more to the game engine then some sequals to other games added. So, at some point the draw distances and map sizes will be high enough to see enemies out of sniper range, but it could be years away.

Zach Shanna Algintal Core Gallente Federation 77	Posted - 2012.07.01 22:54:00 - [1] - Quote As far as I can see, the only scope you get is the default scope and Id quite like there to be a range you can choose from and buy. The current scope for the assult rifle is annoying as it zooms in too much and isnt really my style. When im up close to an enemy, I dont know whether to zoom in and keep missing or no scope and spray everywhere

When im up close to an enemy, I dont know whether to zoom in and keep missing or no scope and spray everywhere you might be surprised at how accurate the assault rifles are without 'scoping in' games these days take it to a bit of an extreme, and there really isn't much choice of wether you should (other than the OSHITOSHITOSHITOSHIT moments) in dust, you actually have two options that will work reasonably well don't just zoom in for every kill. assess each kill seperately.

Not enough so that it becomexs like CoD or all these other MMOFPS but something to help. I dont want this to turn into a debate about how good the scope is but Im getting annoyed by some of these scopes, that's all

We'll just have to wait ...one can hope they add a more advanced sniper scope aswell, being able to zoom in a few levels.

I love the idea of wierd sci-fi sniper scopes and CCP could do so much with weapons customizations and upgrades. Hopefully, we shouldnt wait too long as scopes are going to be import for the functionality of the game

I'm not personally a fan of varying scopes, but I have to agree there needs to be some better options for snipers As is, I can only hit people at medium ranges, and even then I can usually only get head shots if the target is running in a straight line, or stops to capture an objective point. I think BF3s options were perfect, having access to 8x and 12x ballistic scopes.

I like the level system for those type of benefits, and not upgrade purchases.

Riggs Tank Bragian Order Amarr Empire 25	Posted - 2012.07.10 15:36:00 - [9] - Quote the tech. of this universe should produce a scope system more advanced then battlefield, i would hope. maybe a scope that can pinpoint weak points on dropsuits, than sniper has to hit that point for 1 shot kill. not just head shots.

This. Where how many years into the future are we? My scope should be giving me zoom options, night vision, infra-red, range finding, targeting ID, etc etc.
