Does anyone even use aperture sights?

Battlefield V General Discussion

For just an extra 0.5x magnification than the iron sights they give a darkened and limited view and to add an insult to injury the middle of the sights has a circle instead of a pin which is both obstructive and is not precise enough when one tries to go for headshots.

Is there even a single person who actually prefers using aperture sights over scopes or iron sights? I feel they need a major revamp to become something worth using?

If yes, do you think it is not unsuitable for precision weapons that need to go for the head to work well.?

No, it makes aiming much worse. I miss the kobra sight and visibility from BF4.

I use iron sight or 3 x zoom. I hate 3 x zoom, but the game forces you to use it in some way.

3

Nope, hate them.

4

Occasionally I’ll use it on an AR, but apart from that not really. Actually I might have it equipped on my Model 8 when I use that.
But yeah, making it so the reticle is more like a pin than a circle would make it much more usable, and making the outlines much sharper with less of a dark tint.

5

Just me or does it seem that the sights and lack of visibility is made for “hide and seek” meaning firestorm and not the core game.

6

I do not know but it is ironic that it is supposedly an “rare” upgrade to the iron sights as far as Randomstorm is concerned, when it is actually a downgrade

7

It is too bad that they do not have the Lyman Peep Site as it features a pin on the barrel of the weapon seen through the rear site.

8

Blergh. Nope.

9

I don’t. Normally I just use the old standard iron sights as most of them are pretty good.

Recon’s Selbstlader 1906 has a 2X sight called “Standard sight” which is a great sight and how 2X sights should be on all guns.

I proposed this here

11

That would had been a major quality of life improvement

12

Those things suck big time.

13

I use them on bolt action rifles from time to time because I find the forced TAA leads to the iron sights blurring into the terrain too much on certain maps.

14

I am currently trying, it still has some issues darkness is a major issue for .5x extra over ironsight which has less obstruction. To me it seem quicker to ADS than x3 scope.

The dish aperture on STG and G43 I have found to be pretty good for medium range.

15

No, I don’t care for them at all. I usually use irons on everything but snipers.

16

Currently using them on my Ross. Trying something different to eliminate scope glare. Love the 2x scope on 1906 Selbstlader.

17

Only use them on SLR’s due to scope glint on 3x. Really wish all REcon SLR’s got the same 2x as the sebby 1906.

18

I’ve only liked them with the STG-44. I don’t know if it’s a bug or by design, but with the STG they don’t darken the area around the sight so you can still see your periphery.

19

I used it on my ZH for a bit but there’s no point if you can kill the dude in 2 or 3 bullets. Even if you miss two, if he’s facing you then he’ll know where you are anyway and if he’s not facing you then he wouldn’t be able to see a x3’s scope glint. A x3’s scope glint makes it easier for them to fire back but if you’re killing everyone with 2-3 rounds then that shouldn’t matter

So ultimately I switched back to the x3

If anyone is on the fence about the apature use it on the ribby. Bet you dont go back.
