FN-FAL 4x scope, is it really necessary?

Personnaly I don't mind it since I rarely use scopes outside the sharpshooter perk, but I know some people use them a lot, wouldn't it be a bit unconfortable for them? While the 4x scope would be good for long range battle and not a problem in close battle, this may be an issue in mid ranged combat, and since most of maps tend to be confined; having such a big scope may be problematic and probably unusable in the heat of combat.

I know the weapon is a crossperk commando / sharpshooter, but here is the thing : is the FN-FAL really necessary as sharp and is the 4x scope really necessary as commando?

I find that the hip fire is mostly pin point accurate anyway so I don't use the scope that much on some semi and automatic weapons.

how about we make the fackenfnafle a sharps. weapon only.....the gun is a battlerifle after all just like the m14

[Revalopod]

I never really even use the scope on m14 because I hate it so +1 for fn fal for being scopeless

[Nuca de Dolj]

......o snap....the m14 is a marksman rifle .....my bad

Considering the tiny size of maps already and the fact that most of the time there is no point in scoping with existing weapons already since zeds are thrown at players right in the face propably no one will use that scope, both on ss and commando, existing scopes are already enough to aim for heads at enemies on the oposite side of the map, 4x scope will make it harder than easier to aim.

It is not necessary at all, why would it be? However, it's what you're going to get. Learn to love it.

Red dot for com.
Scope for sharp.
And make it swappable - this is much better way to implement upgrade system instead lame damage buff

[HiTmAn]

i wish more dot sight is way more useful...zoom in this game i really dont like especially on hoe where u must be very mobile after recent changes..sight on scar i like

[Lore?]

The x4 scope on the M14ERB sucks and it'll likely suck on the FAL as well.
If there was an option to remove them (or at least lessen the zoom) people would be less pissed about it.

Yeah I got this problem with the M14, having big zoom on small map is meh.

Indeed, this would make the upgrade system useful.

Or just add option to remove the visual of scope and zoom on all gun.

I totally agree with this.
Red dot sight is best in this game. Whoever decided to put it on KRISS Vector, I love you
Official maps in KF2 aren't made for long range combat. And even in large custom maps, you rarely snipe Zeds and you focus on the closest ones instead.
Scopes with high zoom are good in military games where you fight against other people over long distances, but in game like KF where most of the time you shoot Zeds at only few meters away they're not very good.
I'm afraid that a lot of people will prefer SCAR and AK over FN-FAL just because of scope.
Having multiple varians of it would make more people want to use it.

I’d much rather see it have the same scope as it had back in KF1.

The FAL in KF1 had the same 4x ACOG it had in the render they showed us in the KF2 render. Since people voted for this "old favorite" I'm sure they wanted to leave it looking the same.

Carry another rifle for short range engagements. I highly doubt that it will weigh more than 8, 7 at least.
