it runs AMAZINGLY compared to A3 and can handle way more but this needs a lot, MASSIVE zeus changes, UI changes, control changes, and the overall feel is just weird

Anyone here having audio issues on the Xbox version of Reforger?

wary field
#

depends on what audio issues XD I play on pc, I didn't have sounds for when my gun shot, but had sounds for everything else like bullet impacts, enemy and friendly fire, etc.

#

it seems like the longer you spend in-game the more bugs pop up

sour idol
#

I'm having a very specific audio issue that seems pretty common, at least according to many reddit posts, for the XB version.

Basically, I have no in-game audio.

wary field
#

at all? wow

#

If you use a headset while playing Reforger on XB, and your audio is set up to go through your TV/surround sound instead of your headset, there is NO in-game audio. At all.

#

So, I can either play Reforger without a headset and have audio and be unable to talk to anyone, or I can talk to people and be a deaf soldier.

#

Just a little bit inconvenient.

if we're comparing max graphics on both, reforger obv looks much better but it performs worse overall... the nice thing is that at least it's somewhat stable and doesn't turn into a slideshow when someone starts shooting at you lol

#

on a3 I got around 100-300 fps without firefights, here it's ~60

playable framerates nonetheless so I can't complain

So, you can inspect your weapon, and fire while inspecting it, which will shoot, on your side, it's a bit of an interesting "workaround" for blind firing an angle and gave me the thought that, beeing able to blind fire angles would be an interesting addition to the game.

Also am i the only one who despises death animations instead of just realistic ragdolls

No, I'm not a giant fan of the animations either

i stg the death animations are so cartoony and unrealistic they should be replaced by something like what Squad or insurgency do

#

My dead horse is pulp at this point so I can't beat it any more but if you want to hear my tirade about the UI design, check it out: #reforger_feedback message

#

The rest of the game is pretty placeholder so I'm not worried about it. I am worried about the very polished and non-buggy UI that is probably great on console but is awful for PC players

#

Perfect example of PC getting screwed by console support

waxen holly
#

This is every PC players exact thoughts

#

Why tf should the unit selection menu take up your ENTIRE SCREEN

rich fractal
#

The one thing I do like about the Game Master is the composition areas, but not having lists is painful

tepid stream
#

slowmode sucks, so big post here we go.
The UI fekin sucks

  • I shouldnt have to enter a menu that completely removes my ability to move the camera to spawn a single unit or group, then have to re enter it again to make one more spawn.
  • Why on gods green earth can i not copy paste units
    -Why did they completely remove the standard, hold right click to swivel, scroll wheel to zoom in and out, mode, and replace it with a speed slider
#

Its entirely because they have to conform to people using controllers, thats literally the only reason its like that

#

maybe this isnt too popular of an opinion, but A4 shouldnt be crossplay, and if it is, only KaM console users

waxen holly
#

They said "forget our main playerbase who have been playing for decades. let's make a UI for casual console players who will probably not play the game for more than 70 hours"

tepid stream
lyric wedge
#

I wrote this while arguing with someone on reddit who thought the new GM UI was great, may as well paste it here as well:

Rapidly selecting and placing units is at least 3-4x slower than in A3. This isn't a "get used to it" difference, this is an intrinsic limitation of the UI. Adjusting filters incurs a 1+ second delay before the results populate. The results only displays up to 15 entities at a time and occludes the whole screen (killing situational awareness). A3 Zeus displays 50 entities in a list that can be instantly scanned from top to bottom and takes up less than 15% of the width of my screen.

I can identify squads from a list, place and orient them at a rate of 1 per second in A3. In A3 Zeus, the menu tree's state is cached per-category, so I can have the relevant ones expanded in every category and switch between them instantly, e.g. closing everything but the NATO > Infantry menu open in the BLUFOR groups tab at the same time as the CSAT > Infantry menu isolated in the OPFOR groups tab, and switch between factions instantly without needing to check and uncheck multiple filter options to hide the extraneous categories and then wait a whole second for the results to populate. This needs to be done every time you need access to a different set of units.

Maybe it's fine for people just causally plopping down units to play with, but for use as an actual game master let alone as a scenario editor it's a massive productivity killer.

now I don't have to read a list

This is the first time I've ever heard anyone imply that lists are bad. You would rather read a bunch of text, 15 chunks at a time, interspersed with unhelpful pictures and uniformly distributed over the entire screen, and have to scroll before you can start reading the next 15? Reading a fixed-width vertical list is among if not the single most efficient way for human eyes to scan text, I really don't understand where this notion is coming from.

Reforger is just like worse squad except you can go in 3rd person, doesnt feel at all like arma

slow cradle

# slow cradle the worse part is that, i have a 32:9 monitor in arma 3 the UI takes up the same...

Yep that sucks. Fortunately it seems to be pretty unanimously agreed upon that PC needs a separate GM UI at the very least, except for the troglodytes on reddit who called me "old man" over the argument I pasted above (I'm less than 30). I almost feel bad for the devs who designed the current UI and are facing all this backlash, because they're super polished and I'm sure they work great on console, but they're just not fit for use with a mouse and keyboard.

#

yah and you know what else you can do with A3's menu open? move the damn camera

waxen holly
#

yep

waxen holly
tepid stream
#

which by the way can i point out, i cant even swivel the camera and zoom out at the same time anymore because of the stupid as hell decision to bind scrollwheel + right click to camera zpeed

lyric wedge
#

I did the same thing with the game and graphics settings windows yesterday, the new ones contain less information and are over twice as fluffy, gotta move your mouse way more and scroll to find things that would ordinarily be instantly available in a fixed location on the screen by clicking straight to the appropriate tab

#

Are you talking about Workbench or GM? GM supports WASDRF motion just like A3

#

Or whatever the controls are, I don't remember what they are but my muscle memory was able to take over in the normal way

tepid stream

GM

waxen holly
tepid stream

go into it rn and try to rotate and zoom in or out

Workbench has the problem you're describing but in Reforger GM WASD + RMB should let you fly around just as you can in A3 Zeus/3DEN

waxen holly

#

yah i can fly around fine, but i cant zoom in or out

#

unless i outright stop holding right click

waxen holly
#

Also i think it was completely pointless to make the character have an animation of putting the gun on safety before he can holster his gun, its just a waste of time and makes the animation longer for no reason

sudden coral

I want realistic death screams kinda like insurgency sandstorm

tepid stream

ahhh yes because I, a soldier in an active combat situation, would put my gun on safety at any fucking point in time

rustic merlin

Yes you would

waxen holly

Yes, actually, you do
You'd get reemed out if you point it at the ground without the safety on

#

The safety comes off when it's pointed at the enemy

waxen holly

#

yah my point was it takes so damn long im sure people playing reforger have died because of it

lyric wedge
#

That's certainly a good point, it should be manual imo. And even if not, it shouldn't take long enough that it requires an additional animation step

waxen holly
#

i dont even think its necessary to add at all but if youre gonna do it then do it right

rustic merlin
#

Because that's what you do when you holster your gun

waxen holly

Switching the safety on takes zero seconds IRL since you do it at the same time you do something else

rustic merlin

I dont even notice it, not really a big issue imo

Yeah, I'm not commenting on how long it takes

waxen holly
rich fractal
#

I just simply commented on the "you don't turn you're safety on" thing

tepid stream
#

maybe im just ignorant since i havent had any actual training, but if youre quick swapping from rifle to pistol, in a life or death scenario, you safety it?

waxen holly
#

that would be the last thing on my mind if im life or death scenario

rich fractal
#

No, if the rifle is not in a combat stance, i.e. pointed, low ready, or high ready, the safety is getting turned on

Its purely an academic discussion, because you can't be killed by a bad safety animation if you can't even join a server šŸ™„

They have to remake that entire system from scratch, which making a weapon mounting system that conforms to terrain in a believable way consistently on large open maps with varied terrain angles and such is not an easy or quick task

# waxen holly arma was never meant to be super easy to learn its not a game for low iq casuals...

They want to tap that tactical console market, which could potentially be gold mine.

Iā€™m all for Arma being put on more platforms, but if it sacrifices basic things like weapon mounting and stances that all had their uses, especially when some maps/buildings have keyholes that require advanced stances to actually use, then I would rather sacrifice availability instead of getting rid of what made Arma unique.

This isn't a main line Arma game... you guys realise this, no?

slow cradle

the point is to ditch arma 3 for a new game thats built on a new technical foundation without changing the essence of the game, reforger does that currently to an extent, atleast with UI design

sudden coral

#

its not so much being an "elitist", its that arma was suppost to be a game that was grity, that was hard, that wasnt accessable with the button layout of a controller, that was built ground up for people who like the difficult and tough demeanor of milsim, and i fear that BI is straying away from that, we got 12 months to see improvement before they stop support

you can also refund and play something else if you dont like the essence of the game - which isnt even a main part of the series.

#

you are complaining that its not arma 3 basically. Which is nonsensical

waxen holly

There's probably more controls in arma 3's "common" controls section than there are controls in all of reforger

tall rampart

and movement, driving and gunplay has never felt better lol

The game is a testing ground, a way to get feedback on certain features so when arma 4 starts development and is released it wont take years to get it to a stable and good point that the community will like.

Its a platform for testing and giving feedback so when arma 4 is released it isnt a buggy mess with features that nobody likes. so many hyped up games now release buggy and broken and with features nobody likes, with reforger its pretty much going through that first year of improvements and feedback but on a seperte game made for that purpose

# sudden coral Elaborate on get rid of stuff? What would they get rid of that console couldn't ...

So, for example, advanced stances like mentioned previously. I donā€™t know if they will put them in, or if it will just be a hold ctrl+mm to change between them, however things like weapon mounting, I canā€™t see it being viable on console. At least not in my opinion.

So I will say the new Bohemia workshop is weird. I donā€™t know how it will work in the long run, but to me it looks like how the Fallout workshop is, clunky and not good in general. Of course not many mods on the workshop but things like Modpacks, how will that work. If I have a group of mods for a unit, then I have a group of mods for another, how will that work out?

We have no idea in this current time, but these are some things I can see being sacrificed. However I could be completely wrong, but this is just speculation.

New engine looks promising, gunplay looks very nice and visuals are great

death animations look absolutely silly and cartoony, should be replaced with something similar to squad or insurgency

UI and controls need to be unbutchered for PC players, they've been simplified to an unacceptable extreme, advanced stances need to be added back like they were in arma 3, then this will create the perfect arma game

and of course extra content like maps and units and vehicles and eden editor but im sure thats all planned already

If the direction they're trying to take arma in is going to be universally console oriented then arma is done for as a series

for now at least

it's been out for like what 3 days

I shall cut it some slack for a while but if they keep updating the game without actually improving it then we gotta dillema

Are you playing in 1st or 3rd person?
Just guessing, but in Arma 3 your framerate would limit gun's fire rate. So in theory switching to 1st person could change your field of view, which would change the number of things rendered and raise your framerate.
Then again it could just be arma'd šŸ˜›

ok, so it's a feature arma šŸ˜„

Quick thoughts:

  • New player controller is awesome (very responsive, clunkiness of A2/A3 is finally gone), but I think that movement speed should be toned down to at least 70-80% from current value. Š”urrent speed of character movement fits DayZ (game basically about running from point A to B), but Arma is a different beast and I think that movement quickness that sometimes can compete with Quake 3 Arena and UT should gone, especially bunnyhopping and other tricks
  • I hope that item condition and mag repack system from DayZ will make it's way back to Arma in some lightweight implementation as the ability to fill your mags with any rounds pattern and ability to damage scopes mid-firefight would be nice to have
  • Contextual hotkeys should somewhat steamlined to "if you have selected item and hold it in your hands, then left mouse click should activate/use it" instead of pressing X/R/L or other keys to use it which differs from item to item. I get why this was made (many items are used by left hand while holding the rifle in the right), maybe the solutiton could be something like "put it in the right hand and use CTRL+left click to put it in the left hand"
  • Animation-ragdoll transition on death is very abrupt

I can't put my finger on it, it might be Everon, it might be navigational and communication problems, but from what I noticed almost all combat takes place at point blank? 100m distance engagements are rare, 200m distance ones only happen against the AI.

Opening and closing doors/windows
When opening/closing doors and windows, I think it would be nice if we would be able to open/close them with some F+mouseWheel up or down, by which we would be opening or closing them slowly/progressively and only by a portion we need. A sniper/spotter often needs just a very small gap to see through, instead of opening whole window/door wide open. Could be a more quieter option too.

Simply opening/closing mechanics like the already existing mechanics of progressive changing running speed of our character.

Would love to see a team map feature similar to RUST located in command posts. Would allow players to add/grab map markers and intel from the command post in their MOB/FOB and share enemy expected locations etc. Something that combines Arma 3 map drawing with Arma Reforger's lack thereof. Players would still need to return to a FOB to get the information from their friendlies, but it would also give teams the ability to communicate infantry/cavalry movements around the map.

#

For example, player at FOB Indiana says "There's a platoon element located outside our FOB to the east. They place a marker on their map with that intel, go to the command post, interact with an "intel map" inside, and then players at other FOBs could go to the map in their closest FOB and pull those markers that others have placed.

#

This would give players the ability to communicate locations and put a visual to it rather than only being able to communicate through long ranged radios, but also keep a bit more of the realism you get from Reforger compared to Arma 3's drawing on the map and everyone getting that info in real-time.

#

Hot take: I dislike Reforger because it doesnt even feel like Arma.

thin garnet
#

Reforger needs its own section in the official forums especially the modding part. Discord is nice for fast help and the mods are great but all the work is lost as you wont find it via google. And even if you come hre and use the search its hard to read through all the messages that are unrelated to the discussion you try to follow. People ask the same stuff every 5 minutes at least in a forum you can merge posts to keep it clean.

From what I've seen in the world builder, the default gravity is -9.81 m/sĀ² (which is the case in reality as well). Maybe the apparent heightened gravity is because we're used to the jank of Arma 3?

I've compiled a list of issues and suggestions from both myself and friends that also bought the game to try it out. We've refunded the game for now, as I found my computer can't run it, and the others would rather wait for everyone in our unit to have upgraded computers before switching from A3.

Props:
AMD FSR is a great addition, especially in a game like this where distant object recognition is a big part of it.
The animations, movement, etc. are fantastic. Everything feels fluid and the gunplay has a lot of 'kick'.
Sound design is top notch - huge props to the teams behind those. Big step up from 3 and its DLCs for sure.

Issues:
Building stuff in Conflict/Tutorial can lead to players getting stuck inside the structures, not sure how to fix this - perhaps an unstuck button that TPs players slightly if they get stuck, like Sven Coop
Player can easily get stuck in the M113 wreck model by crouching in the open hatch - again, unstuck button would help a lot, either that or widening the opening
Lots of pop-in around village areas - sometimes interior furniture appears before the buildings themselves. Something to do with streaming speeds? The houses take longer than furniture?
No in-game scenario editor is a huge, huge bummer and will massively slow down mission creation and debugging.

Suggestions:
Openable windows like we had in A1QG Sahrani would be pretty great, especially now that we can vault over stuff.
Cooking grenades by hitting right click while holding it in throwing position, like in Insurgency Sandstorm, would be good. Basically, hold left click, pin's off, hit right click, spoon flies off, now you're cooking it.
Vulkan version for non DX12 cards, if possible. If not, understandable.

Dumb Suggestions (AKA things that would be nice but are definitely not worth development time):
Animals and women would be nice. We had them both introduced in Arma 2, but have never made a real appearance since, outside of some small critters in A3.

Hello, I bought this game a couple nights ago but haven't played yet due to work. I was going to sit down and play tonight, but I heard there were some issues with server connection for a lot of people.

#

and sorry if this is the wrong channel

I'm actually a very big fan of Arma, but a game that doesn't work shouldn't be sold for 30ā‚¬ (in my case).
Ever since I bought this game, I've had the problem that I get a 5000 ping when I try to join a conflict game. I spent 90 minutes in the game with this bug alone. If that happens with Arma 4 then it will be a second Battlefield 2042.

I still love Arma but this game doesn't get any love from me

As for console version, I think aiming could be more smooth and fluid, don't know how other fellow xbox players feel, but for me it's one of those games where I can't really set up the sensitivity to be able to aim more precise and something maybe with the response curve ? It's kind of hard to explain, it feels hard for me to do the micro adjustments when using ads, I think CoD and Halo are perfect examples imho how it should look like and feel across all games

#

Leaning needs to be done like other games. Set angle and move around is too clunky. Anyone without a brand new controller with perfect rb that works without fail itā€™s tough. Also the right stick to free look is never a good one in my opinion. Put so much pressure on the analog sticks. Stick drifts already bad enough

#

Right stick would be okay if it was a toggle feature rather than hold

#

leaning feels super robotic in dayz and reforger

#

it should be more slow and smooth

#

well now that i think about it that mechanic is in the game i think

Tbh I wouldn't mind an option on consoles for automatic leaning, just like in other games when you're close to the edge of a wall/whatever, it automatically leans you when using ads. But I can see why people wouldn't want that

#

Thereā€™s plenty of good options tbf. Not sure if this one is the best. Feels slow and only useful when setting up a position rather than off the cuff. On console that is I might add

Here is my feedback from the gameplay (I have played Arma for 12 years and have 4000+ hrs in arma 2/arma 3):

The bad:

  • Combat and movement feel smooth at some points but extremely clunky and awkward most of the time. Vaulting and better animations are an upgrade.
  • Movement speed feels too fast and character feels like he has floppy arms when aiming/shooting.
  • Most combat feels like I'm playing PUBG and not an Arma game. At worst, it feels clunkier than combat in Arma 3.
  • I don't like that the devs are trying to reinvent the weapon handling, their attempts to make it more "modern" makes it feel cartoony (it feels like they are pandering to consoles here). The weapon handling in Arma 3 was pretty solid, bring this back.
  • Shooting the weapons and shooting other people feels uneventful, weapons don't feel powerful and there is little feedback when hitting someone (ragdolls look cartoony)
  • Game master UI is terrible and obviously is pandering to consoles and not PC, feels clunky on PC. Bring back Arma 3 UI and Zeus features. Very bad downgrade from the previous game.
  • Workbench is great, but also very complicated. Bring back 3DEN, I just want to mess around scripting and making random things. The workbench is simply too complicated for this. I spent most of my past 1000 hours in Arma 3 just in 3DEN making scripts for fun, I can't do this in Reforger.

The good:

  • Improve graphics and visual fidelity is amazing. Houses that actually have furniture? Also amazing.
  • Improved performance from Arma 3, you can actually have a firefight without constant stuttering.
  • Built-in workshop and being able to instantly download and join modded servers without restarting the game is a great quality of life improvement
  • Foliage density and distant shadows is great.

tl;dr:
graphics and visual fidelity is good, movement and combat are not. Combine the graphics and animations of Reforger with the combat and weapon handling of Arma 3 for best Arma 4.

I was wondering if intense dust graphics are gonna be a thing? in most combat footage a lot of dust is kicked up from weapon fire, explosions, vehicles, helicopters and everything else. Are there plans to integrate this more realistic level of dust or is that just graphically impossible?

waxen holly
#

but i think youre commenting this at the wrong time, reforger only has everon and everon has no sand whatsoever

#

maybe when they add a desert map

#

there are patches, but dust settles on pretty much everything, more dust should be kicked up on the dirt roads, and (of course they're not in the game yet) but when artillery gets added (or at small scale grenades already) should kick up a lot of dust

just looking at recent war footage outside of deserts explosions even without large sandy terrain kick up massive amounts of dust that really lingers

Of course, Iā€™m glad console players can now have an arma experience. Especially when you see what we do with our mods.

But the devs said themselves that they had to implement limitations etc for that and the game really does feel like an arma lite. If they could bring a full arma experience to consoles then great but I canā€™t imagine it happening.

#

Thereā€™s a lot of simulations in Arma 3 that are missing in Reforger probably so consoles can manage. I think even the ai got dumbed down a bit for consoles. Previous AI did a lot of logic and was quite performance heavy.

The default zeroing for the AK shouldn't be 440m (lol) and it's a bug that you have to press PageUP to DECREASE the zeroing to 100m after which it starts to increase to 200m again.
Generally, every weapon should have its zeroing to be set to 100m (or the lowest setting) at Respawn. It's ridiculous to aim half a mile over the target if you just spawned and have to spawn fight.

And, please, remove that awful Support Truck "feature" from Control. Nobody plays your game for a logistics simulation experience.

How do you feel about voice proximity chat, more specifically the distance before it begins to fade away? I personally find players can be relatively close to your player character, but nearly impossible to hear. Iā€™ve found it rather frustrating.

#

I also want to mention that with regards to proximity voice chat, there are some very nice effects being utilized when players are outside a vehicle vs. inside a vehicle. Listening to another player talk to you from inside, say, the BTR while you stand outside sounds quite nice. However that being said, there is an issue(?) occurring where if there are two players in a vehicle. While in first person view mode, you can hear them in proximity chat quite easily. When switched to third person view mode, they become very hard to hear. It can be frustrating to try and communicate with your mates in a vehicle, especially if you are using 3rd person view.

#

Other than that I really am enjoying the communications systems in-game so far. The radio system is very fun and speaking personally, intuitive. The platoon channel adds a new layer of depth and strategy, and I enjoy that players can create their own groups and communicate within them, while also having a method to communicate team-wide

Feed back is leaving a brief summary of how the game is currently running, not having a argument, there's a general channel for that.

Now as for the Logi system in place it is a very welcomed system by most of the veterans of the arma series, the main reason you may see it not working is due to the fact player count is hindered due to the improper way the server are currently working, Now stop bitching crimson, Go to the damn general if you want to continue....

Now as for the rest of the game currently the Ai is a large improvement from previous iterations, they move more fluid like and take tactical advances to over run there enemy, They also ajust the way they run, run and gun and make many attempts to kill the player at all costs.

The graphics are also well done and a nice improvement from arma 3 and its ilk.

Well, you may call yourself veterans and you may very well do so (even though I'm entitled to find that cringe, because a true veteran would very well find anything to improve to increase the player base of the game very positive).
Logistics being "hindered" by the buggy servers is just an obviously untrue statement by yourself (why would "veterans" suddenly have more server problems than avg players?).

# dapper snow <@451891348451098624> what is a way to implement logistics without it hampering ...

Again, please read my previous posts.
It's annoying because essential gameplay resources (like the armory/vehicle station) aren't available to points when people aren't doing the logistics. Of course, in public servers, nobody does that, because the vast majority of the player base wants to play the game, meaning fighting other players.
Without logistics, you could e.g. have a timer for those resources.

@past marsh it also has multiple ways of transporting supplies, such as air transport. But youā€™re right, it exists as a core mechanic and works just fine. It doesnā€™t affect things like vehicle spawn in a way it does for this game though.

but that's also only a problem in that game mode. There'll be game modes where supply won't matter at all

#

For example, I believe it doesn't matter in GM modes

dapper snow
#

I think helicopters are surely going to be added, there was someone scrounging the game files that found unused models. Air transport of supplies will mean much quicker and faster logistics, and seeing as they will also be used to transport players all over the map, Iā€™m sure it will also mean supplies constantly spread across the map.

And that's alright, but you must admit that the vast majority of players are playing reforger for the PVP-elements, and the way the game is marketed is clearly aiming at this.

Which means that they already have to be part of the community. Please realise that you are reversing the "hen & egg"-order here.
Clearly, Reforger is set as a entry-level MP-focused streamlined tactical shooter (which already is very very much "tactical/realistic" for the vast majority of players = where the money lies).
If you later, in A4, want to do logistics, you then can very well do so, but currently it collides with the sentiment of this small game and it hinders the growth of the player base. And, frankly, you should be most happy with a change, since a small percentage of anyone learning about Arma will also join you "Veterans" and be as enthusiastic about realism and stuff as you are, but without those new players, you Veterans will not keep Arma alive in the long run.
Games will be more expensive to program by the year and it's a smart decision for BIS to try and convince a fraction of players that e.g. are disappointed by larger game series like BF or whatever.

But don't diminish the overall game for what will undoubtedly be the significant minority of players overall.

The sight settings can be modded quite easily, so I personally don't think it is worth much discussion to be honest.

All of your suggestions thus far are like adding guns to minecraft. Some people will like it, but most don't care for the change in trajectory from what they expect from the series.

#

Also, if you're aiming above a target 100m away while zeroed at 440m, you're doing it wrong.

This sight configuration for AK is very much similar to how burst memory is affecting handling of M16. It can be detrimental in some situation, but advantageous in other. It is part of the game basically.

Flowerpot takes hits

Just a detail, but as the player shoots through the window, there seems to be the dirt hit VFX on the flowerpots with each round despite the player didn't fire specifically at them, not even near/low enough.

A feature you could mod out...

Holy fuck @white hamlet go play Call of Duty. Your attitude has been so dismissive and petulant that even an official employee has been curt with you. Youā€™re getting dragged through the mud. Just fuckin stop my guy.

Currently, your game clearly aims a more streamlined approach. Overboard and weird realism priorities are contrary to that.
I honestly do not think that you should claim that.
And please stay on topic, I didn't talk about the fire mode. I explicitly talked about weird zeroing options and the default settings they are set to.
We talk about approach to realism. You gave us example of a AK sight quirk, I gave you example of a M16 quirk that may be found annoying by casual playerbase. I did not stray off topic.

Personally while I'm one for people having their own feelings and think that for some that's a valid drawback to realism....please do not say that your speaking for a majority, tide. Cause chances are...you don't speak for the majority. Certainky don't speak for me, that's for sure,

In short. "I don't wanna press buttons when I play a game. Delete that feature that only I have voiced displeasure with".

Graphics (even on max settings) come nowhere close to the smooth fluid fidelity shown in the showcase trailer.
