So I've been playing tarkov on and off over the past years, never really diving deep. That's what I've changed this season and I'm getting way better at it.
What I've come to realize is that only a handful optics are worth using.
For example: Why do reflex sights jiggle so much while shooting? To me they are completely beaten by holos, especially the eotechs. These are so stable while aiming, there is no contest between them. There shouldn't be that much of a difference right?
Or some of the schmidt & bender optics that literally cut your sensitivity by 90% so that you cant shoot a moving target, hence you must use the vudu or something similar.
Are these intentional changes? I can't remember reflex sights being this bad when I played in the past.
So many times I pick up an optic my teammates just say: "Ditch it, it completely sucks."
And they're right.
