The Laser Sight

[Tuuka]

why cant you attach it to the other hand guns?

[BaLuX]

As the description says, you can attach it to:
SG-09R, Punisher and Sentinel Nine.

But if you ask if you can attack it to multiple pistols simultaneously, you can't.

[Coffee Addict]

because the game says no thats why

But why only 3 Pistols?

Red 9 has the stock what gun do you want it on?

Because that would remove the randomness factor from the gunplay.

And randomness to gunplay either came straight outta RE2 Remake and they never bothered to change it due to cutting corners... or, more likely, it simply exists to force resource management on you, countering the fact you might be a good shot and end up with much more resources than you've got any business to.

One of the mods on Nexus suggests they originally planned the Blacktail to support laser sight as well, but that was likely deemed too powerful of a weapon for their vision of the game.

I guess devs wanted guns to have their own distinct attachments. So R9 got stock. Blacktail was supposed to get laser sight too, but they cut it out.

Since the game has a paid to win DLC wich i have nothing against with, whats the point only to attach it to 3 Pistols who get outperformed by the others? is it to "balance" random spread is just a bad stupid mechanic, the laser sight is just satisfying gunplay

[Pure Mind Games]

What's all the fuss over the Laser Sight anyway? I use the Red9 so I've never used it.

Original RE4 already had random damage.

a little nitpick i have is that the blacktail has a visible rail for a laser yet cannot use it

Disingenuous. You wouldn't bring it up from nowhere if it didn't bother you. It's not related to the topic at hand.
The Laser Sight was put in the game long before the tickets DLC. Yes, it's limited to balance the pistols out. I don't know how you came to this conclusion on your own, then decided nah. Deliberately stupid.

No

Your point being?

In the original, you hit the head = the enemy staggers. It's consistent. It's predictable.

In the remake, it might stagger, it might not. And it'll take up to 4 headshots to die.

But back to the point - damage is not what I meant there.

I meant the very thing of landing a hit is random in the remake. Try the shooting range with a TMP and then tell me gunplay is not RNG.

If you can't hit with every shot reliably - you need more shots. You need more treasures and more backtracking. Not to mention more microtransactions.

It's a subtle system, rooted in game design. Something you're likely to not even notice at a glance. But it's there under the hood.

Their point was simply disproving your assertion that "And randomness to gunplay came straight outta RE2 Remake" ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ are you being obtuse on purpose?
