Hitmarkers Optional?
I hope we will be able to modify the HUD to turn off the COD hitmarkers. Or even turn off the crosshairs totally. I’ve played too many modern games these days where Hitmarkers are so hard coded int...

@Alphariuz-II most likely but i wouldnt turn it off since you don't know if you are hitting them and if the drop looks weird

This is standard in hardcore mode, so absolutely no problem to play without those 'artificial aids'. It is just another gameplay experience.
@YT_Positive Hopefully drop is a little more realistic in this game. we used to zero rifle iron sights for 300m with the real thing. In some previous BF games, it feels as if you have to aim six feet above someones head with a sniper rifle to hit them at that sort of range.

Nice observation @Rusty Rat ,
But dont you think then that the real root cause problem here with our aka bolt action rifles in the game was they had a too slow muzzle velocity? As actually thought that the gravity drop was calculated correctly in the game? (all of course apart from the weird exceptions as aka the SSR-61, which i think they put at just 6m/s2 at BF4 game launch? :o)
Been a while I have played around in the field, but wasn't it something like 15 inches drop out at 300 yards when using ballistic tip 30-06 ammo (so not round nose), so aka maybe a 4 MOA drop at that range? So yes, 4 times higher drop in the game versus quite ordinary rifles and ammo in 'real life'. But from seeing all predominant outcry against snipers in the game, don't think making them even more powerful would make it any better, despite also assault rifles and all might get beefed up also?
They mentioned being able to tweak a whole bunch of different settings that allowed players to create the HC servers of their dreams so I'm inclined to believe hit markers/damage indicators will be a part of the options in some capacity.
