HAT kit Zoom Capable

[Redamare]

the HAT kit should have the ability to Zoom 2X or 4x since it already has a small zoom to give it a greater persision attack on farther targets..
since at farther distances it makes it incresingly more difficult to keep a straight target on a small object espeiclay when all you see is a couple of pixels instead of a detailed object it is sometimes very hard to not Hit the ground 30 feet infront of the target instead of the intended target.

sources to your claims, if something do not have zoom irl, it most likely wont get it in PR
and overall, any sources highly increase weight of your suggestion

is it possible AT missile can lock to lazed targets? (irl too?)

Standard AT missile, no. But they can be tweaked, so it is possible(irl). I think a HAT(like Javelin) does have the abillity to lock on targets(standard kits - irl), but it will be a nightmare for armor in PR....

yes the ability to lock on would have to come with a differnt type of weapon ... the SRAW doesnt lock on

well..if it is irl I support it. of course the its effect on the gameplay can be discussed but at the end isn't that pr?

the only ingame surface based AT missile i can remember, which might have lock on features is LAHAT

of course the its effect on the gameplay can be discussed but at the end isn't that pr?

there are lots of compromises with reality to benefit gameplay

But they can be tweaked, so it is possible(irl)

do you mind to list them?

things like this starts straying in to Javelin territory :P

Personally I'd prefer javelins to TOWs, but then again the stationary tradeoff is probably for the best.

Orally?

Here.

It is in-fact a guided weapon.. Just not in-game.

well, Read, its not exactly a lock-on and not even guided, it flies straight to calculated point and if target changes direction or speed it will miss and there is no way to correct it in-flight
