Disabling new Depth Of Field

[Jakey]

Does anyone know how to force disable the new depth of field effect that was added to the game with the new 6.0 update? There is no way to disable it in game but I'd assume there is an .ini (config file) tweak that can be made to disable it?

So you want to induce cheating meta? Better snuff it out out now than later I guess

What are you talking about? How is it cheating when you dont want your weapon blurry all the time?

No. It is unrealistic to look at something other than your scope while your weapon is shouldered. The left eye ceases to function when the right is in proximity to a magnified optic. This is a biological fact. Go play unreal tournament.

Weapon visuals now remind me of those in Delta Force Landwarrior, minus that they were 2d in Landwarrior. It's the look and feel element that counts.

Depth of field is a movie and photography thing remove that ♥♥♥♥ from games.

tell me how having your weapon not be blurry is going to affect game-play in any way in terms of having a competitive advantage...

i too noticed the depth of field on scopes is complete trash. i do a lot of sport shooting and the only part i like about it is the newly added wobble and having your scope black out when you're leaning or moving. but now that scopes are rendered only useful for long range it's probably necessary to add a option to aim over your scope as a toggle. or atleast iron sights mounted onto scopes or rails like in arma

It's also unrealistic to see things at an FPS that resembles a powerpoint presentation slideshow, but that is the way the game is heading...

I was actually thinking the same thing yesterday when I tried out the new update, about a toggle to aim over your scope or an additional iron sight.

i'll let my own eyes to blur out stuff that i'm not looking at

Damn, opinions are really mixed on this...
Keep posting your opinions guys, it only increases the likelihood of someone sharing how to disable the DOF effect here ;)

This is the stupidest thing I've ever read. There are many cases where using both eyes open with magnified optics partially or during fire is actually trained.

Regardless of this, it is completely irrelevant to the weapon Depth of field in many places of this game. When you are just walking around, your gun is blurry towards the buttstock. If you are looking at your gun on your screen, it is presumed that you are looking at the gun, therefore it should be in focus.


You can keep the blur for suppression, you can even make the view outside PIP scopes etc. anyway, this discussion is about the Depth of field on WEAPONS.

Using fictional statements about stuff that isn't about looking at the weapon is just pointless.

Funny really but i need a new sarcasm detector, also sorry to revive this sort of old thread but im a new player and doing the tutorial i noticed that no matter the visual options i changed the scopes looked awful but when i tried the binoculars it looked great... so is that a feature like the blurry weapons and not a bug?
