Best place to find an ACOG ?

Recommended Posts

Im just wondering what everyone's experience is as far as best places to find an ACOG.. its the one thing I cant seem to find really anywhere. I've seen doubles of so many other rare items back to back in buildings... but no ACOG. (btw, the 3 door small garages 'garaz' I think is the placeholder name is the best place to find PU scopes from what I have seen) 

 

So any helpful advice?.. I know where they spawn, and will just keep checking all the spots. But maybe someone can say they routinely find them here. Maybe not. Worth a shot

Try the improvised 2 story bunkers near airstrips, they tend to get passed over by server hoppers, aside from hitting up hangars after a server reset its your best bet.

 

Its also in my experience a lot less dangerous to take a pass at them and run like hell than to search the hangars. Good cover for approach and exit, as apposed to being totally exposed to every Tom, Dick and Harry who wants to take a pot shot at anyone who steps on the tarmac.

I've found a couple in the tents by Balota. Last I heard though, the loot spawns for those tents aren't working currently. I could be wrong though.

 

I've also found a couple at the very top of the ATC tower on the airfields. It's pretty high risk standing on the roof though.

 

Good luck.

I think that it is partly just luck whether you find the more rare items.  I have seen several ACOG's but until last night I had never seen a long range scope.  Then last night I saw three of them at NWAF.  I had seriously gone over 100hrs without seeing a single one.  It took everything I had not to be a greedy bastard and take all of them for myself!  I really shouldnt have even taken the one I did since I dont actually plan on using it.  I was just so excited  :blush:

Never leave a LRS behind, it will only fall into the hands of a recently deceased server hopping KOS sniper who upon finding it will immediately head back to the coast to kill freshspawns to work of his/her rage at being killed by a freshspawn so he/she can get back to the business of killing freshspawns while clear headed.

 

I know that's not always true, but it is true often enough that I refuse to leave them behind, hence my collection across hardcore and regular of 7 or is it 8 LRSs, I really need to run up north and dump them in a bush again.

I find the Military Hangars at all the airfields are extremely good places to find Weapon Attachments for the M4.

Same here.. they seem to be the best so far.

 

Truth is I dont really need an ACOG, but its literally the one thing I dont have. Fully geared to the teeth.. but its like my end game now, LOL :)

haha. I reached that point and said "well.. this is boring". So I went down to the coast and gave some newspawn my stuff. I later found out he was killing newspawns with it, so I cut his head off with a hatchet and took it all back :/

You are probably right.  But I dont want to deny someone the chance of finding there first LRS.

In the tent camps north of the NWAF and at Balota, bunkers with a top floor draped in camo net, they still spawn loot. As many as 3 military loot items per spawn including LRS's M4's and all M4 components. The only weapons attachments I have never found in them are the sights and suppressor for the FNX tho I believe they can spawn there as well. Spawns may also be occupied by high end clothing, food/drink, ammo or ammo boxes

I have yet to find me some rice.. but Ive got extra protector cases for certain. Id be willing to trade under your terms and circumstances as long as I feel safe about it.

I am on a hardcore server though if you are to ask advent from the unofficial trade thread we made a meet n greet and trade we both walked away happy ...

I have participated in this activity, not as a shooter tho, set up with 1-3 friends, find a LRS set it on the  walk way of the ATC, set all doors in their spawn position. 1-3 snipers, one guy in close (me), I watch the player list, if anyone joins the server and gets to the bait to fast we consider server hopper and treat accordingly if someone has been on the server for long enough and gets there he will never even know we where there.

 

Its beautiful the way they all stop to see if its pristine, allowing the snipers a perfect shot.

Tent still empty of loot after the recent patch. If you want the LRS, you can find one in barracks or hangar and it take some luck to get one. As it is rare now.
