    Ok, so you know how in Call of Duty you can attach a red dot sign/ACOG scope to your gun for better aiming and zoom? How about we take this idea and simply put it into war and make the game even more similar to its counterpart. The coding is simple, and this idea would be easy to implement, so why not?

    For the scope, a re-texture pumpkin head can be used to "aim down" the red dot. The texture can be similar to this:
    http://m.imgur.com/36ckmkz
    To re-enact the zoom, the slowness effect can be used, similar to that of the current aiming system, but with a higher effect. Also, this aim could increase the accuracy of all guns it is added on by twice the original value (with the exception of snipers) when aimed down, making it worth the donation. This sight would not be available for any donator guns except the LAW.

    EDIT:
    All pistols with ACOG scope do not have a higher zoom than default but do retain a higher accuracy variable. The USP and M9 are excluded from having the sight because of their lower caliber and that they do not have sights in any of the Call of Duty games.

    Finally, because this sight may seem somewhat overpowered, I recommend putting on an extremely high slowness effect. That being said, it would be harder to abuse the sight by jumping to and fro to cover while shooting in order to pick off players.

    Well, I hope you guys like this idea. Comment if you have any further suggestions.

    Why would I use this if I could simply download the mcwar mod?

    This.

    I don't think it's really necesarry. And also, why not Hybrid, Red Dot or any other sights?

    Maybe ask Phantamanta to edit some more scopes into the War-client?

    The thing that makes sights in COD useful is that they make the area around the sight more clear, as the ironsights are pretty "hard to see through" on certain guns. As there aren't any ironsights in war, this would just give them a disadvantage, and if they still want it, they could just download the war mod.

    Ok, I see. We can just call it variable zoom (like the sight in COD: Ghosts) and just give it the ability to have better accuracy. Also, this could reduce the recoil of guns with a stronger aim. The reason why this isn't hybrid or red dot is because those sights don't have zoom.

    It has been already suggested, but has been denied. This is because non texture pack users will be utterly confused about people with pumpkins. If you want scopes, try Phanta's McWar client: http://mods.io/mods/1077-mc-war-client

    Read my most recent comment about it, and I changed my plans @Endercow_3 . Also, @diamondf , I don't think that it would confuse players any more in a game that appears like snowballs firing from a hoe. Since perks are donated for, people who play the game more frequently (those who use texture likely, not first timers) will not have a pumpkin texture.

    They would have to make everybody download a mod so no.

    Just as everyone said this could be used in the MC-War client. But it would be cool if the sights were something else unique different from scopes.

    We can't retexture the scope because the scope is just zooming your camera view in.

    I'll simplify what he is saying, you know the pumpkin head? You can re-texture it to make look like a scope. Boom done. Pretty easy for a scope.

    It would look weird having players have a pumpkin on their head.

    Plus a new scope would actually be a disadvantage to the player because it blocks their view of their sides and the courser serves as a good aiming point already.

    The ACOG is just in the famas and other guns in the mc-war client. Nothing else.

    This is why this suggestion has been denied countless times before. Also, why is a scope a perk...?

    I think attachments are due to come for War 2.0, this is much more like an attachment not a perk, this is a possibility I would assume (as an attachment). :smile:
