Replace 1x Holo with improved iron sights attachment.

I know this sound weird at first but i think this will do more than you think. Many people dislike both the iron sights and the look of the optics for a gun. Giving them alternative/improved iron sights would help with that a lot. It would also appeal to players who like iron sights more than an optic. 

Not to mention that there are legendaries that can be count as either pay to win or pay to lose, the attachment would help both.

The 1x Holo would be replaced as no one likes it for being obstructive.

For example, the Wingman would get conventional handgun sights line the P2020, the Flatline would get iron sights more similar to the AK, G7 would get some that resemble the G3 or M14 sights etc.

  • I know what you mean about this, but is you have 1 iron-sight optic that is good, their will always be that 1 quarter of the players that hate and start complaining. The flatline iron-sight is so bad you basically cannot see the whole middle section of the screen if you don't use a scope, I guess this could work but it will be ages before they actually start working on this.

  • I actually prefer running iron sights on most CQC weapons so i'd be all for this.

    I'd decrease the possibilty of 1x holo spawning and slightly increase the possibility to find 1x HCOG. Especially in KC where you can find tons of holos. For the iron sights, i highly doubt they will do something about it, only thing i can see coming is more skins with better iron sights maybe ;P

  • @Cro_Pittt Nah they won't be doing that.

    A while back one of the legendary longbow skins had a really good iron sight, and they amended it due to players who didn't have the skin complaining it was an unfair advantage.

    (Despite the fact that anybody using a sniper efficiently at close range is more to do with their skill than any iron sight...but hey, whiners gonna whine)

    @MandatoryIDtag Well i would not be surprised though if they do that. But i hope you're right 🙂 

    P.S. I always love when i pick up a longbow early game and i no scope people getting them killed, very satisfying 👿

    for the iron sights, if we want to compare the factory issue skins. some are really bad and hard to use. Flatline, G7, L-star, sentinel, longbow, and some are awesome better than the x1 optics.

    wingman, r-45, r-301, havoc. r-99, triple take. I guess just need to balance the iron sight, so it's clear at least for the basic weapons

  • @Zeues-1992 I actually dislike the Wingman iron sights and despise optics ob the handguns because they look goofy and mallninja like. Its actually what inspired me to make this thread.

    Agreed, although the wingman ironsight would be good with a little more enhanced visibility ADS
