How a Controversial Gunsight is Redefining Rainbow Six Siege | OverExplained

by devaccess



Over the years, customizable weaponry has become increasingly common in video games.

From barrels and sights to flashy skins or decorative charms, gun load-outs have become a fully-garnished, smorgasbord of destruction.

But in Rainbow Six Siege, weapon attachments have become a point of contention for its fanbase, and no other has drawn more debate than the ACOG.

I dont see why should Doc and Rook lose their Acog. its harder for them to spawn peek and rush out as they are 1-speed operator so its really risky.

Theres a few operators with slow firing weapons that could benefit with and acog on defense, e.g. FBI ops, frost just more thought about how many acogs are on defense need to be overviewed

I don't like the idea of smaller maps just to nerf acogs. Why not nerf the sight and make map design more dynamic instead? You can make the scope more obscure for example.

Is it just me or does it feel like the Acog adds a bit of recoil(maybe at least just visual recoil, but that still affects you all the same) to a gun. Whereas if you had a 1x scope on the same scope there would be less recoil

Hmm? Will be there a possibility of twitch losing acog? Or not I mean her gun it's pretty overpowered (don't @ me just personal opinion)

This is a perfect summary of Siege. A "tactical" game in which nobody cares about the tactical gadgets, all that matters is the guns.

Tell me why after this video launched ubisoft already planning on taking away docs acog rip

While it is true that attackers can hold angles, good roamers can shut down any attacking team no problem. I think it is balanced and having heavy slow guys with ACOGs make sense so they can hold LOS on obj to counter attackers

In my opinion all acog sights should be removed I feel like it would cut down a small amount of spawn peeking and I feel like it would take more skill to have to use a 1x shight
