Mosin-Nagant scope and reticle

Bakimaster91 · 08-16-2008, 07:47 AM

Firstly, I just wanted to say Hello to everybody

I have been playing PR since 0.4 but this is my first post on these forums. I think that it is pretty important.

I love the militia faction. When possible I try to get their sniper rifle - the M91 Mosin-Nagant. However the thing that is one of the most important in the sniper rifle - the scope - here is completely wrong!! The reticle is awful, I wanna puke everytime I see it

As far as I am concerned, I think that it should look like this one:

.

The other thing which is wrong ,I think, is that this scope does not have the two times magnification as other sniper rifles. Of course I know that this is impossible in real life on the M91 scope, but.... for balance reasons it would be good my dear DEV`s

That is all for now. Thanks for listening. You do a great, GREAT job up here DEV`s.

Youre pretty, pretty BADASS

What I don't understand is why these arms dealers would only arm themselves with WWII-era weapons in an age where their clients would demand newer firearms.

Anyway, the Mosin is here to stay, and I agree that the scope needs to be changed, but the zoom factor level has to be realistic, not balanced. I assume that's why the Militia use the Mosin in the first place.

+1 on not having enough Zoom. Doesn't look like I can see any further with the M91 than with a standard British Rifle.

Would also be great to have a different reticle, since the current one will completely hide a enemy soldier at 350M. This makes headshots very very hard.

Offtopic-ish - 1 gold star to the DEV who got the sound effect for the M91, Sends a shiver down my spine when I hear it...even when I shoot it. By far the best sound you can hear as an insurgent on Al Basrah, because when you hear it you know that a brit just got a bloody big hole in him.

Funny you should say that. The SUSAT on the L85A2/L86A2 LSW is 4x zoom. The PU scope on the Mosin is 3.5x zoom.

Ok, I understand that there shouldn`t be balance but please do something with the reticle. Once it was very good and it was in the 0.6 version I think. I`ve seen it in the promo video. Why have you thrown it out and put the other, horrible one??

Always had the feeling I could see further by squinting my eyes than looking through that scope.

	Mad-Mike - Good photo's but why do u have 2 threads that are the same? [R-CON]ReadMenace - Are you referring to the obvious double-post or the less obvious, high-resolution military photographs thread?
