It would be kind of op if used i think. But im thinking would be great for finding snipers safely. What do yall think? To make less op only make have like 10x zoom. And only add this if scope glare is removed.
#Add periscope to game.

Yaman. Is it camera? Whats the name of it
balmy raptor
use the modern one then
Still dont think it really fits BBR

Still dont think it really fits BBR
Oh, it's more of a funny thing we can have, though it could be useful for spotters and people who would want to use them for spotting or looking for snipers from a position.

lots of versions. many are digital, though olds chool optical sights are still used in some cases. many are even thermal nowadays

bro we have binos if you wanna larp
junior kettle
bro we have binos if you wanna larp
and these would be another thing
also, avoid being sniped
which bino's don't do
junior kettle
yeah that totally works when you are defending
so lets add this and have another option
chilly flame
bro its just more bloat like the game doesnt need more options for spotting snipers
use the map use target detector use ur scope us a drone use binos
thats more than enough options beyond that its just cope for skill issue
junior kettle
lol
junior kettle
thats more than enough options beyond that its just cope for skill issue
sounds like you are just salty
chilly flame
ok lol
junior kettle
anyway, its a good option to add. happens to add a larp tool that is actually useful if you take the time to not be a zoomer like goose.
chilly flame

sounds like you are just salty
junior kettle
the only things people say bad about it are currently "just move" and "just use drone".
junior kettle
sounds like you are just salty
says the guy who's only response is that other things exist
chilly flame
valid response no?
junior kettle
might as well only have one of everything
junior kettle
valid response no?
fails as soon as you see that other things exist that do similar jobs
chilly flame
im sorry but ive never been in a situation sniping in this game where i thought 'a periscope would be helpful right about now '
junior kettle
yeah, and how often have you said the same for binos? or weapon sights for the sniper that aren't optimal?
its an option
you don't want to use it, don't. just stick to TD/RF and your prefered scope then
chilly flame
ok but whats the point in adding smth thats just not gonna get used other than by the 2 players who cant find a sniper through their scope
junior kettle
Like you are actively fighting for fewer options in-game.
chilly flame
yep
junior kettle

like Binos, its an option
chilly flame
jiggles are we arguing to much?
chilly flame
like Binos, its an option
tbh i dont see binos sticking around after the update
junior kettle
tbh i dont see binos sticking around after the update
and once again, fighting for less options.
its optics.
its not a new system.
chilly flame
and once again, fighting for less options.
how often do you require all these options?
junior kettle
how often do you require all these options?
whenever I want to use something that isn't optimal all the time
like i said, might as well have two scope for all weapon types
chilly flame
ok bro i run stuff that isnt optimal very regularly
junior kettle
close range and mid, or mid and long for dmr and sniper.
take away all options for every class and weapon. leave only the one type of everything.
we don't need all those options for sights and weapons
they all do the same thing
chilly flame
bro i dont see ur point lmao
all i said was we dont need to add in more options
ur just taking what i said to an extreme
junior kettle
if your argument fails on other parts of the same game, its a bad argument.
balmy raptor

This basically
chilly flame
theres no good reason for adding a periscope like tell me one other than "more options"
chilly flame
This basically
exactly
junior kettle
bloat, for a single modle and no change to optic systems
tell me you know nothing about dev without telling me
chilly flame
okay but if we apply ur argument to everything else in the game it would cause a lot of bloat
and if ur argument fails on other parts of the same game, its a bad argument
junior kettle
lol
so please tell me how a single model is adding bloat?
that has no or few moving parts, no stats to track, and nothing other than being attached to the optic system?
chilly flame

jiggles are we arguing to much?
Wouldnt say "too much", yall are on the suggestion topic and not being belligerent towards each other. Was just droppin into see what was so active

this is probably my first and only time replying to a thread doesnt seem to actually go anywhere
junior kettle
Animations are already done. UI needs a 2D image. Same for the menu (why do we track items like these again?) Sounds... for optics. I guess they could be added? And coding is just an optic system/camera system. same as Bino.
balmy raptor
Imo periscope would be bloat cause it just seems too niche
junior kettle
did we hear that if the soflam was coming back?
chilly flame
idk
balmy raptor
We are getting binos with a rangefinder
It was on the playtest
junior kettle
So SOFLAM comes back
chilly flame
We are getting binos with a rangefinder
It was on the playtest
there was a memory leak in the way lol
balmy raptor
Its not the SOFLAM binos, but it basically has the same function as them
Models different iirc
balmy raptor
there was a memory leak in the way lol
Fair enough
junior kettle
SOFLAM would be thermal capablem, so they decide to make the new one just a rangefinder pair of binos I guess
balmy raptor
Hell we could replace binos with it
Id still rather buff binos than replace them
junior kettle
Id still rather buff binos than replace them
We are going to have 3 different binos and two of them are essentially the same.
balmy raptor
We are going to have 3 different binos and two of them are essentially the same.
We could have one bino have longer spots/ have it mark enemies and vehicles as long as you can see them
Other one can auto mark enemy gadgets or have it be remote controled
Another can just be thermal
We are already getting rangefiner binos
And different binos can have different zoom levels, or just not have the option to change it
Not hard to make each one have an actual niche at least
junior kettle
and you have an issue with this?
just replace basic binos with this, and then the special ones can be unlocked later
balmy raptor

Basic binos can have longer spots/mark enemies as long as they are in view
I am more in favor of that
Add functionality of something that is already there
winter valley
we should add a 200x scope

Wait we have binos!!
Lets gooo
How do u get them? Wat class?
Oh recon..... prob. But if only one class can counter snipers is other recons. Thats just sad.
