    IM sure some ppl knew about it but i never told anyone. Alot of ppl were not aware that the binocs came with the sniper kit in assualt. I was fning deadly with this combo because u can hide behind a bush and use the bonics to look through the bush and pick up every1.

    If any1 was standing still you could just pull out the binocs, find a target not moving and zoom right in so the name shows up, scroll to sniper and u dont have to zoom in. Shoot and you got a kill and they cant even see you.

    I think this is the reason y they have messed with binocs cause they knew this was happening and wanted to make the change subtle so no one would really understand y they tweaked with it except the ppl that used this trick.

    I thought i could talk about it now seeing as its now useless. But yer good job on the tweaking of the binocs... reall good work there.... :P

    My vote was to keep it with the sniper kit. Im sure theres more important issues to be dealt with rather then trying to stop this rare exploit.

    Thanks for reading.

    I always get a kick out of people complaining about things that would happen and be in a real war.u want realism but dont want it.complaining about binocs and rls,grenade launcher are all elements u would find in a real war.so go complain there.

    I think everyone should get binocs, and that in multiplayer, the motion sensors should be disabled. Make it an even playing field, and a bit more real.

    In a "Real War," no one is going to carry 500 pounds of HE for any grenade launcher.

    Yeah I like the idea of removing motion sensors.

    I have been trying to figure out a way to dissable the bino's "at least the tracker function" for quite awhile now. Yes they are usually placed out in the open on a map where it makes it a little harder to get to..but..once someone gets them they can rack up lots of "very easy" kills. No skills needed. You cannot hide from them. Why else does that dumb *** with the sniper rifle grab them before crossing the water on his way up the mountains on monekybay. Everyone else becomes a target...no matter how good you are.

    You hit the nail on the head ,you use good tactics to take a 5 min walk to take him out and because of the radar he knows you are coming and can ambush you .
    Clever thinking and tactical awareness should be rewarded in this game and the binocs take this away ,a sniper has all the advantages anyway ,make his job a bit harder.
