ADD CUSTOM SIGHTS

[Sir. Ian]

Rainbow Six Siege should include a new update that gives players the availability to make custom sights. When I mean custom sights I don't mean the physical metal piece connecting to the gun but the holographic target you aim down in. I realize there are times when people could meme around and draw inappropriate images on it which wouldn't be good for younger players to spectate. The solution to this problem could be anyone spectating the sights will only see a blank sight or the spectator could turn on an option in the settings where they can see any players sights or switch it to friends only. Not only would an update such as this be beneficial to players to fit their liking when aiming down on an enemy but this can open an opportunity for developers to have players buy slots for custom sights with R6 credits or Renown to bring in some extra income for the dev team. I hope you guys (the developer team) considers this idea and put this plan into play some day.

the problem is that the reticle of each sight is a balancing point. of the 1x sights, red dot has the best reticle, holo has the second best and reflex has the worst. to compensate for this, they have largest. medium and smallest sight housing respectively. if you could change the reticle then there would be no reason to use anything other than the reflex sight with a changed reticle. I do think they should allow players to customise the colour of the sights though as I know some players have difficulty seeing their reticle in certain situations due to a visual condition they have such as colour blindness

The reason why I would really enjoy something like this is because making custom sights would add something new to the game that would give players a type of uniqueness. I understand where you are coming from, thanks for commenting!

It really will take away a big competitive edge. That's why all the cool looking bright yellow hazmats from Outbreak don't fly either.

The skins would be a hit except you're this bright yellow ball with a white helmet in a map of brown and grey tones.

For sights, people would just pick the most precise reticule with the least obstructive housing. Think holo with reflex frame. If you picked differently you'd just get roasted for being noob.

Dude, you are clearly copper IV if you say that dot is best sight and reflex worst.

did you even read what i wrote dumbass? i said the red dot has the best reticle and the reflex has the worst. i almost exclusively use reflex as my 1x sight because the housing is smaller.

Dude, are you like retarded or something? You say that dot sight is the best and reflex is the worst and then you say that you use only reflex. What the ♥♥♥♥ man

what im saying is that red dot has the best actual sight. the bit in the middle that is the red dot. i never said it was best overall.

Yeah except dot sight is only used on shotguns or in copper, literally every pro uses reflex or halo

yeah because the housing is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ massive. as i said. i use the reflex because it has the smallest housing so i can actually see ♥♥♥♥

No I dont want Ubi decreasing the chances of me getting operator skins from a loot pack because of new custom sites

Then stop saying that dot sight is the best when you clearly think its not

i never said it was the best. i said it had the best sight picture, not the best overall.

Y'all gotta chill but he's not wrong. The red dot sight is actually the odd one out, the reticule is ridiculously fat and really limits using it to hold long angles to single-tap some guy's head.

Reflex shoots at the tippy tip of the triangle. Holo is a clean dot. You only see red dots in REALLY low ranks.

fair enough. i never bothered with red dot in the first place cos of that fat housing.

Agreed. The argument for red dot is more vertical lens space, which really doesn't compare to the fact that is also has less horizontal space than the holo and equal amounts with the reflex. I choose the holo mostly these days, mostly it just feels cleaner and you get a slightly wider horizontal.

If I'm being honest, I don't get why red dot sight has remained like this for 4 years. Nobody uses it and ubi knows this. If anything, just make it a CoD style red dot with an even fatter dot + bloom and a very thin futuristic housing. I'd use it for sidearms.
