Katana67 2907 Posted March 17, 2014 With most weapons having a fixed "zoom" when ADS unlike ARMA II, and the amount of recon needed just to enter an area safely, I think that binoculars are even more useful nowadays. Yes please. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gibonez 3633 Posted March 17, 2014 You're welcome.That looks terrible seriously. Finding that ancient binoculars would be far harder to find in real life than finding any modern pair of binoculars. I would also like to see hunting and golf laser range finders. These usually have a max range of 1000m and have no magnification or low magnification.

makomachine 263 Posted March 17, 2014 Yes, must have in my opinion. I'd have no reason to carry a LRS equipped Mosin if they were in game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sav112g 114 Posted March 17, 2014 The argument is simple you can buy them everywhere in real life and considering you can find rare sniper rifles this really is a basic thing to have. Its one of the first things I’d pick up after a weapon in real life if such a far out non fictional situation happened. Not played the game in any form it has to be said so dont know if such kills the game play. If you want people to do more basic surviving like cooking food drying cloths and even taking shelter than you want to encourage them. Having a way to check out your surrounding for a distance will help. Granted someone could spawn right on you and I don’t know how you get round that as lets face it appearing out of thin air is not realistic but has to be done.

gadyuka 99 Posted March 17, 2014 I don't what it is but it sure sounds funny... binoculars... [giggles] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gadyuka 99 Posted March 17, 2014 Ummm... we can already zoom-in within the game without using an item to justify it... I don't know about y'all but my vision doesn't work like that in real life. Seems like we already have some form of binoculars as a default. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The default view is actually "zoomed out" less than 1x in order to give you a larger FOV. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
w00kie 42 Posted March 17, 2014 Yes this is a good idea, might also work well with the field of view problem at the moment which then can be total disabled have a set view. Only when you get a gun, then it be changed to show the different views options, like x2, x4 zoom etc. Yes good idea as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gibonez 3633 Posted March 17, 2014 Do some research, Chernarus is USSR in the 80s.If that were true there wouldn't be any red dot sights or m4s.Gsme takes place in modern day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
