BUG:Scope optics are not correct
with many of the optics with the exception of the holo sight, if you move your eyes around the sight then the center point also moves, this is a huge problem especially for sniping in that you have to be looking perfectly down the center of the scope for the bullets to hit precisely, which is very hard to do. please fix this problem sometime, it takes away many advantages of long range shooting.
EDIT:absolutely not
i use a scope multiple times a week in real life ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ it i dont play call of duty. i just put my rifle in a vice and tested what some of you have been saying and it appears that there is a SLIGHT deviation if you move your eye all the way to where you almost cant see the crosshairs. but in the game the deviation is insane. at 20 meters you can deviate the crosshairs nearly a foot off target which is ridiculous. im no sniper but i promise you i can hit a human target at 200 meters 10 times easier in real life with a rifle than in this game. which is a problem. THIS IS A SIMULATION GAME RIGHT. im just trying to give my helpful feedback. be advised i have spent much time testing the optics in onward and also use a gun rig

No, the Scope optics actually are correct. With a real scope if you are not aiming directly down the center you will have the same issue.

You are used to video game scopes with incorrect optics.

Holosights work like they do in real life as well where you can see them properly from any angle.

But that is how it realy is.
The dev modeled it as close to real as he could.

I agree, it sucks, but it does feel very real.

Perfect, the game makes the barrier of entry for marksmanship higher. I'm okay with this.
Hi all,
It's à good thing that it's very hard to snipe in this game as it is in Real life

Just too bad the controllers are too light and can't be layed down on something or so. Its near impossible to hit somebody 24x zoom. imo I cant get a good view in the scope. The scope is small and far away. Controllers constantly colliding the HMD. Of course the resolution is too low as well. Gotta wait 4 years or so to really have that fixed.
absolutely not

All feedback is good and I agree I can't hit anything in game with the scope but I can get some good groupings with my 308

I agree that sniping should be hard, but I too felt something must be off because my bullets were not going ANYWHERE near the targets despite the crosshairs being pretty close to/on target. I guess I buy the whole scope 'realism' since I'm not a hunter nor a sniper to say otherwise. I suppose I just need more practice.

So if the scope is ACCURATELY modeled, the way to be hitting your shots is what? Make sure the crosshairs are dead center in the scope body? Any deviation to dead center in the scope body WILL change the bullet impact?

if the scope is accurately modeled the crosshairs will only deviate very slightly depending on where you move your eye, and not the exaggerated amount that they do now

But oh boy is it satisfying if you pull off a headshot with a sniper in this game. So much more than any other FPS I've played!
