Bipods And Scope Zoom How To?

[archangelalien 0]

Found a m24 sniper riffle with a bipod. I never played Arma 2 much. I noticed some players were able to place their bipod to stabilize their aim, and also able to zoom in and out.

Also I am hunting animals and using it to scout out buildings and not player kill, so don't be afraid to share some info. Friendly :)

The bipod goes down when you prone, as for the extra zoom, the M24 doesn't have that. You CAN zero for higher ranges, and there is also a chart somewhere explaining how to properly range targets with the scope and mildots.

Also, don't shoot animals with your sniper. It's ammo isn't all the common :P

Okay. How do you adjust the zero in game?

PGUP/PGDOWN keys.

I'm unaware if the M24 has extra zoom, but it is + and - on the numpad. Simply holding right mouse to steady your breathing should also zoom in if possible.
