Not one to claim credit often.

I think the visual evidence helped the "too bright" side of the argument.

Hexagons are still part of the sights, and I never once said crosshair anywhere.

And about the not not making sense part, does it make sense to have a bright sight on your gun that dims when you bring it up to aim?

No, it doesn't, it does however make sense to have a sight that stays the same brightness at all times.

The difference between whether or not you can see with the holographic sight when it's at hip level is so small it really makes little to no difference. Here:

That's the iron sights. In all honestly, let's take this to a different route: Why have the hexagons there at all?

So, what are you actually trying to say?

Fuck VS, they don't need cool sights and only get their standard ironsights?

Because at the moment I don't quite follow.

I kinda like that version.

All I am saying is a re-design might actually be better. The Holographic sights SHOULD stay, (I actually am planning to play as VS) but this should clear it up:

I never said take away the holographic sights, that's just an assumption.

Also- If you're familiar with Halo's Plasma Rifle, an example (JUST an example mind you) could be those sights with a circle surrounding it. A windmill could also somehow be incorporated. There are a lot of different ways to do it, and it would be easy to do so because of how blocky those hexes are. They can be improved easily.

Jesus guys... This is the future! To put it simply, as long as the idea is cool then we can make up whatever functional reality we like... USING SCIENCE FICTION!!!

Don't forget, we have...

You had me until "...like in COD Black Ops".

I'm going to go take a shower.
