Remove crosshair for all non-melee weapons

Remove it. I don't mind if hip-spread and ads-spread are the same. Arma operates on the assumption that you are firing with your weapon properly shouldered, but with both eyes open and not looking down the sight. This is totally plausible, but you shouldn't get a dot showing you exactly where. You know where the middle of your screen is, roughly, that should be enough. I remove crosshair or lower the opacity in every game that allows me to. It certainly makes STALKER and Metro more immersive.

And that damn dot is messing up my beautiful screenshots.

yeah, making good screenshots sux hard at the moment, you always have to turn your head around for not having the dot on your screen.

Great idea honestly.  Remove it all together.  Frankly, this could be the balancer between 1PP and 3PP - those guys trying to shoot in 3PP would have a heck of a time and would need to sight in (which is fine, it's not hard to do, but they'd have to learn to shoot that way is what I'm getting at).  3PP can be an advantage in combat, this would negate it.  Maybe keep it when zoomed in without a weapon equipped simply for looting items.  At the minimum, this should be added to the Hardcore Servers but it would be nice to see all around.

Yes, hope they will remove it, at least for hardcore

I voted remove all, but I'd like to see the dot replaced by a four cornered triangle.

Most of the people that complain about 3P just hate that you can see over/around your character at all. 

While I'm all for removing the crosshair (not necessarily 3P, but that's a different story) I'd rather just have it be a server option than game-wide, so people who really wanted to play the easy way could.

 

It's much better to compromise and give people the choice rather than choose one side or the other, otherwise the other side comes in and complains equally as much. Of course, this can't be the solution for all issues, but it's a much better model to work off of than just getting rid of (or adding) everything that stirs up controversy in the game.

i would suggest to remove it at all ,or just in hardcore servers

Really no point if aiming deadzone can be set to zero so the gun will always be aiming at the center. Anyone with even minimal FPS experience can tell where the exact center is.

Now if it was like Red Orchestra where the deadzone cannot be changed, then removing the crosshair would make change something
