Would be nice if everything that was destroyed, dead, or a "coffin" would not show up as a red reticle. Just a though but to destinguishing an enemy from 12x range can be a pain :)

No seriously, this would be a nice change.

To be honest think this is only a problem with the Adv Targetting implant, basically all the targets I mentioned show up as a red reticle, where friendlies are green reticles. Not sure if that is as intended or if only living enemies should be red reticles.

Snipers have it easy enough as it is.
Learning the difference between a coffin and a person is a lesson you will quickly learn.

lol "lesson" is learned, however, just wondering if this is as intended or a bug?

yeah, same thing happened with me and my cycler and zoom, reticle went red, shot the guy, got grief, turned green, and i said sorry. think its a bug, somebody should log it when they next see it or something.

If you can't see enough of them to know they are friend or foe, there is a chance there really was a bad guy you were aiming at. There was just some unhappy chap fighting him that you shot instead.

Don't fire until you see the white of their eyes.

What if they have a visor on?

I agree that corpses and reckage shouldnt come up as red, especially since aircraft still show up as yellow (why not green and red? why?)

The aircraft would only be yellow if you knew they were enemy but pretty much out of range of your weapon. They will be red when in range.
