I stopped playing. I dont want to level up, all it does is downgrade your weapons, and theres no way to revert back. How broken.
Kar98 non-hooded sights screenshots
- Thread starter DarkestEvil
- Start date
This is why I think some of the vets did it to make it more like their older rifles
Not wanting to prolong this point, but:
I find that very hard to believe and I never heard of it either. Doesn't make sense at all, some warped feeling of "nostalgia" would hardly be reason enough to decrease your combat effectiveness, if only by a little.
especially not in that hellhole
That sight hood removal made me much less accurate on k98k. Don't ask me why. It's just so awkward to aim without that little piece of metal. Also i imagined that as i lvl up my weapon it would start looking older, i don't know maybe with some cuts on its stock showing how awesome i am in shooting this beast...
Time to loot dead buddies
Time to loot dead buddies
I guess I'll have to start looting corpses if I want a k98 with a hood on it
Might be a bit hard with everyone jumping to level 80 after a few kills haha..

still people like to do it.
And in retrospect its not that weird that players that have been playing the longest get weapons from the early war. It kinda resembles as if they had been fighting from the beginning. Hence their torn and rugged clothing.
Personally I like it without sighthood more than with.

can you 2x zoom please?I disagree. the sighthood's metal itself is thin enough to not have any impact on sight picture, especially not at normal (200-500) ranges.

Sorry for not having aligned it properly, was not easy to keep steady with my knees.
Well, from what I've read on the Eastern Front, many Germans removed the sight guards because if the rifle end was shoved in the snow, it would often end up filled with snow. Obviously that wouldn't be a mechanic in a game but I personally think no sight guard is better in game just because it gives a better view of what you are targeting.
Navigate to:
C:\Users\(user name)\Documents\My Games\RedOrchestra2\ROGame\Config
Open the 'ROEngine' .ini file with Notepad or whatever then hit Ctrl+F and search for "depthoffield" without the quotes, then change "Depthoffield=True" to "Depthoffield=False" and hit save. :IS2:
From that file you can also change a few other graphical options such as motion blur and shadow resolution, they're all in there!

I thought the sight hood was meant to protect the front post of the iron sights from getting knocked out of alignment, bent or broken. All weapons tend to have at least something that protrudes on the sides of the front sight. Some go all the way around. The screenshot rifle has nothing at all and would easily made into a hip-shootster.
