Red Dot vs Holographic Sight

Alan — Tue, 19 Jan 2010 19:04:20 +0000

So I’ve been trying to figure out what the difference is between the two sights in mw2. I really suck so I do pretty badly with all weapons in general. Still I just had to know what the difference was beyond cosmetic. There are a lot of misleading forum posts that are based on nothing but hunches so I decided to link some videos that demonstrate the differences between the sights. Read on for my findings.

Firstly There is no difference in zoom between all of the sights you can see this is true in the following video.

Secondly The Holographic seems to increase the accuracy of some weapons to some degree. The M-16 is one example. This doesn’t necessarily hold true for all weapons though. See the following video for a better explanation.

How to PWN with an RPD

The RPD is a beast of a gun as this video will demonstrate. This is done on Highrise so it is pretty easy to spawn kill your opponents when playing domination. The difference is that this guy gets 2 nukes in one match.

I thought I would give this a go so I stood on top where this guy did with the same setup and guess what? I got killed. A lot. I can’t aim at all though so your mileage may vary.

M16 vs FAMAS Comparison

So now that the handy MW2 weapon calculator is out we can answer that nagging question about which is better. M16 or FAMAS. From the numbers it seems like they are exactly the same. So pick which ever one tickles your fancy. The only real difference boils down to iron sights. See the FAMAS and M16 sights.

I would have to give the edge to the FAMAS if you don’t want to take a RDS or Holo sight as your attachment. If you do use RDS or Holo pick the one that looks better since the difference is purely aesthetic.

Lets not make any mistake. I’m really bad at Modern Warfare 2. I die a lot, I miss a lot, I curse a lot but at least I can say I’ve never had my own missile lock onto me and blow me up.
