Add Variable-Zoom Optics and More Sight Options
Under considerationby RockedLele · 29 Aug
EOTech Vudu 1-6x24 | LPVO | 1–6×
Vortex Razor HD Gen II 1-6x24 | LPVO | 1–6×
SIG Sauer TANGO6T 1-6x24 | LPVO | 1–6×
Schmidt & Bender PM II 1-8x24 | LPVO | 1–8×
Trijicon SRO | Reflex sight | 1×
EOTech EXPS3-0 | Holographic sight | 1×
Hello! These are some sights I would absolutely love to see added. :)
My suggestion is related to the attachments planned for future updates. I have always been a big fan of optics, especially after using them in games like Tarkov and ARMA, and there are a few sights from other games that really stood out to me.
LPVOs are probably my favourite type of optic because of how versatile they are. I’m not sure which variable-power optics are already available in the game, so I put together a small selection of sights I think would look great and would love to see added.
My personal favourite is the EOTech Vudu 1-6x24 (first focal plane). I think it would fit the game particularly well.
If there currently aren’t any LPVOs in the game, one possible way to handle the different magnification levels could be to hold a key while scrolling the mouse wheel, for example ALT + Mouse Wheel. The magnification could then smoothly transition between levels, potentially with an animation similar to this one (not my content):

Thank you for taking the time to read my suggestion! :)
P.S. I haven’t actually been able to play the game yet because I’m still away on vacation. I’ve had it wishlisted for quite a while, though, and my friends and I decided we’re finally going to get it once I’m back home in less than a week.
So I don’t know everything that’s currently available in the game yet. I got the idea for this suggestion after seeing that customizable attachments are planned for the upcoming September 2nd update, and I thought this would be a great opportunity to share some optics I’d personally love to see. 🙂

they have longer range scopes including one titled, "superscope" that appears to have the lpvo zoom-in function but it appears to just be a fixed scope unfortunatley

They have lpvo's there's just no way to change magnification 1 through six, as it's stuck at the max magnification level.

LPVO/MPVO for snipers, 4-8x , 2-6x etc.

LPVO scopes with their variable zoom mechanisms are rather difficult to model, but It would be amazing if hey had their IRL variable zoom. However, just variable zoom is rather horrible, therefore the following stats should be modeled:
LPVO scopes have very little fisheye effect, especially at low zoom. Currently the lens distortion is way too exaggerated and should get a change.
LPVO scopes also have a slight chromatic aberration effect at the edges (only at high magnifications)
LPVOs at low zoom should be almost crystal clear with very little darkening and soft boardering when firing.
Additionally, current scopes have too much reflection from light sources behind the optic. You're the person looking into the optic, you're shielding light from the back, therefore there should not be that much reflections in the scope.

Please, add possibitity to switch zoom in optics where it is possible. I mean like in LPVO or some prismatic optical sights

Definitely! I would love to have this in the game. LPVOs that don't zoomy-zoom is a CRIME!
Jokes aside, LPVOs being in the game makes me think they want zoomable scopes.
However, I imagine this would be very tedious to implement, with their new 'hybrid-PiP/shader' scopes (I really don't know what to call this alien tech).
Not to mention that their priority list is probably filled with other stuff that will have more of an impact on gameplay and flow. This sounds like more of a nicety.
Other than that this would be a no-brainer, canted red dots are cool and all but zoomable scopes are cooler. If they do implement this, I'm wondering if the zoom will be manually adjusted by the operator by taking hands off the weapon and include a sort of Scopeswitch™ on upperbarrel to replace a laser, or it just magically change zoom. I'm betting on the former.

I would love to see them add the HOLOSUN HE510C-GR+HM3X. As its is a fairly common entry level hybrid optic.
