The M16 sights need to be fixed

[Peanut Butter & Pork]

The in game front sight looks like a hypodermic needle whereas in real life it is about a quarter inch thick at the base and a about an eighth inch thick at the tip.

The rear sights are from 1982, but the game should use the sights used between 1959-1981. This means the peep sights are the wrong shape and do a horrible job replicating the picture of an actual M16A1.

I don't think any of you developers have actually held held an M16A1, or looked through the upper receiver, but you should know your version is garbage.

Fix it.

I too, would like my vision mostly obstructed even moreso while trying to aim, especially for where I'm trying to make the bullets hit

actually the sight picture is much clearer IRL than in game because the way the peep sight amplifies your field of view, not that I would expect you to know that

It does not help if only the sound guys handled the guns. The 3D artists and researchers should have caught this mistake early on.

That they do. There's definitely some things in the beta that were better, one of which was the sounds, at least in my opinion.

And the field of view through these is actually closer to the old sights pictured above. It is wide, the picture is clear (a product of the way the front of the sight collects light) and even serves to slight "magnify" the target.

Fixing these sights is critical and that it still has not happened it a huge emberassment for AMG.
