Some questions about visors

[Saikx]

R6S is the first shooter I'm playing on a regular base, so I don't really know about the differences between all those visors. As exampel whats the difference between a holo-, reflex- and lightpoint (are they called so in the english language?) visor? I do understand that some other types are increasing the zoom, but besides from this I have no idea about this topic.

They are called sights and the Holo aimpoint and reflex all do the same thing but just look different its all about how they feel to you on those but the ACOG is a 2.5x so it gives you some zoom but its not very good for rushing its better to use that sight and take it a little slow

I suggest to use holo or reflex on the very starting and when are you used to it switch to ACOG might take a lil practice to get used to it but trust me once you are used to it its EZ PZ kills

the ACOG sights (the ones with the 2.5x zoom) are considered 'the best' for medium-long range engagements, and for good reason, because they are

the red dots (1x zoom circular sight with a red dot in the middle) are good for medium-close range on most weapons

the reflex (1x zoom box sight with a green triangle) are great all around

the holographic (0x zoom box sight with a red open circle in the middle) is the best one for close-quarters, so use it on shotguns or high-recoil weapons like a light machine gun

personally, my favourite is the holographic because the sight is unobtrusive, but it all comes down to personal choice
