View Full Version : Scope/Zoom=Graphic corruption
When you zoom in and or use any scope why does the detail/graphics completely get killed. It looks horrible...... Bug???
What would be the point of having such a view distance only to use it with such low end graphics etc....heh......

Can you be more specific? Which team/weapon?

I think he's referring to the pixelized effect using the zoom on strogg weapons. I hate it too.

I tend to agree that it's not very cool. It might be there by design to limit the sniper's effectiveness, but it kind of gives me a headache.

It's intentional, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't state your opinion. The teams are asymmetric, and that is one of the strogg limitations...

Also if you prone and zoom in then move quickly on the x axis it is jerky.

yup, its pretty well a balancing thing, but they could make the imaging a tad bit smoother.

It's pretty bad ... but I can deal with it. I like the visual distortion when getting shot at as Strogg though. Makes me feel like a robot. :p
Even when being on the human side, when using a scope like the sniper rifle. When you zoom the level of detail in the distance goes away. This is not a case of balancing anything its a case of the graphics changing.
A slight blur effect etc like there is on the strogg would be fine as long as the geometry detail could stay the same etc...

i agrea its horrid
after playing more i dont think it matters too much when firing fast and going in out of zoom i didnt even notice it id prefer the higher fps

I second that. I hate it too.
