I just hate how they replaced some weapons reticles with a giant X

Apparently it’s to make each weapon “more accurate”.

Because your shot will go where the reticle says it goes, instead of just ‘somewhere’ inside the rectangle, the reticles did need an upgrade to be able to visually show you where the bullet will go.

Unless you want others to win just because RNG favored them.

Thank you Srylain, second of his name, for that clarification. Silly me for not being able to understand such neolithic logic. :unamused: I knew fine well what they are trying to do.

I’ve known exactly where my bullets were going for the past 13 years, it’s not difficult. Also you’ll find that when “RNG” is favouring the less competent player it’s commonly a matter of their poor connection strength i.e. players from countries with a higher ping (:mexico:) who tend to survive frag grenades tagged to their chin while they can simply breath on you and you’re DBNO.

Exactly. Tho im not a fan of that game in enjoy the system. Its taking some use to but i see it being better in the long run.

I only really dislike the Sniper one.

I can relate, I feel it (ironic as it is) is less accurate than its predecessor. Seems unlikely but it just felt off in the few matches I played there.

I couldn’t see most of them. I’m not an esports kid so I don’t sit 1-2ft from a 4K monitor. I sit in my old man rocking chair 12ft away from a 60" screen and that pencil eraser sized reticle is just barely visible from that distance for me.

I may have officially aged-out of gears.

Ha! I know the feeling, but as long as I keep fighting off these colourblast creatures with my walking stick, I’ll be around.
