Iron Sights?

Post » Wed Oct 05, 2011 6:53 pm

Is there no way to use iron sights? It seems like the target reticle is not an accurate way to determine where shots actually occur, even at medium range.

I thought that I saw iron sights in a gameplay vid, but can't find any mention in the control settings or manual.

I've not been able to find them through experimentation so far, either. I just find it hard to believe that they would not be an included feature.

I have the PS3 version.

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

So I had to actually sell the binos back to the vendor in order to unequip them.

Even better, you can't hotkey the binos like other usable items, and they auto equip every time you press the zoom key.

In short; no iron sights if you have binos in inventory.

That's odd. Are the bino's worth keeping?

Schnakers:

Not if you have any intentions of using iron sights.

I'm hoping this is just a bug, because they could be useful until acquiring a sniper rifle.

The option to hotkey them like wingsticks or 'nades should be a proper fix.

This obviously isn't a game breaker, but it is frustrating that something like this should slip through the cracks.

Worth keeping if you prefer long range engagements, useless when you want to zoom for close quarters.
