having troubles seeing enemies at all.

[neizvestniy3113]

now, i dont suffer such issues in arma armed assault and arma 2, but i do in this game. before i keep going, i do realize that the game is set in the 80s and my suggestion can be overblown or op, and also, i do realize that camouflage also plays a big role in this game.

also, i only recently reinstalled the whole game so that its all vanilla. i didnt change any of my screen ratios or my fov (higher fov kinda makes things even worse, from what i learned recenty (obviously)).

the thing is, i wish the timeline of the story was a bit more fictional, so that the game would let me use g36 instead of m16 and maybe have some sort of scope on the m60 (at least let me attach it). i can't see sh.it in the distance, like the enemies blend in so much that they look almost invisible to me, and its just small dots on my screen. now, not only do they looks like dots to me, but also shooting at them from the distance is a complete waste of my damn bullets, i have to literally put my face insanely close to my screen so that i could see a little bit of what seems to be the enemy. its just annoying as hell. that reason pretty much makes me not wanna play even the campaign. for reference, try playing the "battlefields" single mission, when you defeat the russians defending the blockade, youll see a second wave coming and if you try aiming at them, youll understand what im talking about.

overall, i dont hate the game at all, i got 170 something hours afterall and the combat if pretty fun in general.

Some tips:

- always use scoped weapons, preferably snipers, when that's possible. Outside the G36 which is better for closer ranges, the M21 is easily the best weapon in the game.

- if you must use weapons with iron sights, try to get closer to the target, but keep in mind that this will also make your chances of survival smaller (you are playing "the Dark Souls of tactical shooters" after all).

- this is one of those classic games that benefits from good anti-aliasing, high screen resolution and/or high pixel density. You can try to enable anti-aliasing in your graphics card settings and if that doesn't work then you can try ReShade, which offers FXAA (blurrier but more performance friendly) and SMAA (higher quality but a little slower). 4K resolution is supported by the game, but I suggest 2.01 patch to get the correct aspect ratio and you can use Nvidia's DSR to have 4K quality image on a 1080p screen if you own a compatible Nvidia card.

- try some modern themed mods like FFUR 2007, which have more scoped weapons.

- if you're still having trouble, enable "Enemy TAG" option in the difficulty settings ("Cadet" setting only).

- lastly, you could mod the game yourself and adjust the zoom of weapons as well as many other things. It's a very moddable game, but you must get down to it if you want to make something.


Hope this helps.
