SCOPES UPDATE ( IMPORTANT )

[solar crest]

OWI did have them before as part of a playtest but they haven't said anything about them since: https://youtu.be/IfhHASD4_GY?si=zTG7FrwArf12ksvB&t=19

I think you should split up your dislike of pipsights from back up sights as i think people are against the first part(And dislike because of it) but support the idea of backup sights

[muted cobalt]

I'm pretty sure they still plan on releasing this just not soon

[versed mason]

What can they be against in the first part? It's not really a question whether PiP reduces performance, because it does.

[grim belfry]

I think more the idea that they were a mistake and i think it why the post is being disliked while most other saying add back-up sights get upvoted

[versed mason]

I mean.... They were a mistake. You can't sack people's performance like that in a game that was full released 4 years ago.

Especially when it's for eye candy you can't even opt out of in settings

[marble latch]

they can also just add removing the scope from your weapon

It was a requested feature for years, better to have a game that evolves than having to buy a sequel every couple of years

[versed mason]

I would personally rather have a game that I paid good money for still playable on the hardware I bought it on

Let them make a sequel, god knows they should with all the spaghetti

[grim belfry]

Well then your just in the minority most people seem to want Squad to advance and expand. When someone tried to say they shouldnt update a map(Think it was Al-Basrah) to a higher standard he got downvoted because most people prefeers not having to buy an entirely new game for what is just a graphics update

[versed mason]

Most people want shiny new things without considering the side effects.

Doesn't mean it's actually the right choice for the game

This is the same discussion that was had about the 2.12 lighting update

[grim belfry]

Or maybe they just dont have issues with it, like I can play perfectly fine all id like is balance changes and more content

[versed mason]

I have a high end rig and am still dropping 30+ fps and stuttering below 60 when using PiP scopes... That is not acceptable for a game 4 yrs into full release. You can have low standards that's your prerogative.

[grim belfry]

Well i dont drop bellow 80 unless we are talking bunch of assets in a superfob being blown up, and that has nothing to with pip sights

[versed mason]

Cool. Considering I was getting 100+ fps minimum before ICO I would consider this a massive drop in performance. And to see the devs say "we won't talk any more about rollbacks or significant ICO changes" is so incredibly stupid and frustrating for people in my position. I literally dropped 1k+ CAD on a new rig to play Squad better and less than 6 months later ICO is out and my performance had regressed almost back to where I started.

[grim belfry]

Well thats to bad but that not the game fault, fact is its a live game that has always recived updates and some having issues shouldnt sabotage everybody else and considering the play base has grown id say OWI made the right choice

[tranquil flicker]

🤣

[tranquil flicker]

80% positive reviews, people buying goyslop anyway

IMO game will not be fixed soon, so i assume it's better to play something else or touch some grass.
