Thread: Multi-optics support?

  1. #1

    Multi-optics support?

    I seem to remember seeing somewhere (maybe the OLD Arma3 website) mentioning this cool feature. Seeing as it has just appeared in VBS2 and that the whole catagorizing of weapons is now indipendant of their varying attachments I was wondering if anyone else has spotted this or not.

    They mean multi optic feature from OA (for example - Acog with Doctor sight) - for VBS2 it is new feature ,because it didn't have it until 1.50 version

    There's one place for One Snake and for One BigBoss !!!

    attaching multiple scopes onto the rail of a gun so that they work together.

    Stacking may be going too far:

    Alright, isn´t anything exceptional but it looks too much.

    Stacking optics won't add anything to the gameplay that OA doesn't offer already (and ArmA3 will allow you to attach multirole scopes, both fit for CQB and mid-range combat) - it will be just an eye-candy - meaning BIS has other things to spend the time on.

    nonononoo. Thats NOT what im saying I mean you put one scope INFRONT of another so they work SIMULTANIOULSY LIKE AN ACOG AND A TWS so you get the enhanced zoom along with thermal vision. Just look at the VBS2 1.5 features list to know what im talking about.



    Edit: Nice pic smurf, made me lol

    Wouldn't simply modelling the TI/NV scope as though it's an ACOG with a clip-on sight on the front, achieve this result so long as you also have an option for the ACOG without the clip-on sight?

    I've not seen anything in the VBS2 1.5 features that suggests you can clip electro-optics to any weapon sight you like - only that some of the weapons have an option to switch to the combined PVS-14+ACOG.
