Scope

Why is it so far away from your head?

Most scopes IRL are like that. Scopes you hold to your eye are of old tech. Long eye relief scopes have all the advantages of predating scopes, but without the risk of injury from recoil.

Uhh... no, quite the opposite: long eye-relief scopes are thing of a past, mostly used by people who refuse to leave the 1980s and believe in Cooper's scout rifle concept, or are using them on pistols in lieu of modern red dots. Normal, short eye-relief, scopes are still used for when you need an actual "scope" that present large image of a target.

Both Elcan and Nightforce scopes present in RoN are shown too far from the eye (especially Elcan), which probably stems from the fact that devs want to use same animations as with red dots/holos.

The one map good for scopes is ruined by the fact you also need night vision and the scopes don't work with NV :D.

Ah, you see I was bunching long and short eye relief scopes into one category. While technically wrong, it fulfilled my point regardless. They both have the same concept, which is neither make contact with your eye socket.

I hate a lot of modern games that clearly have eye relief scopes, yet they bring the camera all the way up to it simulating that you are putting your eye socket against it. This game at least gets eye relief scopes somewhat right, even if they do pull them farther away than would be normal for said scope. I do believe that higher FOV may also visually change how far the scope appears.

This is flat wrong.

Why are people using a scope in a CQB game where literally everything is within pissing range.

Some maps like Greased Palms have large open areas

we need more vanilla scopes/sights.

this one i had as a MOD back in EA and i cant run mods since 1.0 as i have to run in safe-mode so i dont crash on startup.
