    The radium sights are actually my favorite in the game, especially with the martini Henry. It’s got softer angles which makes it easier to see far away enemies, and it makes it easier to zoom in at close quarters.

      3 year old comment and i just had to put in my two cents about those sights ..i have no opinion about them in game, the fact i find insanely interesting is that these things were actually a real thing, and actually made of radium! Lol that means each time u aim down sights, ur staring down a radioactive sight, loading ur eye with mini cancer bursts each time....it blew my mind to find that out, although i definitely exaggerated them a bit because they were technically a "safe" level of radium, but it would sure as hell make me think twice about using these in real life, tho i dont suppose they had a choice back then...

    In terms of bad iron sights, *nothing* beats BF3 famas. Gigantic block of metal with tiny hole to peak though - on a gun with 1000 rpm, lots of muzzle flash and crazy recoil. Ugh....Thank god, acog scope was unlocked just after first 10 kills.

    • @GSixFiveFourThreeFourDashTwo

      The Madsens magazine might be a bit more obstructive, but the front sight is much clearer for lining up with a target in a gunfight than the BARs (especially when you don't have much time to react in closer ranges) just my honest opinion, I really don't like the BARs standard iron sight

      I was honestly surprised to hear how many people hate them. They remind me a lot of my No. 4 Lee-Enfield and personally, I find ring sights way more intuitive than post and notch sights. I also really like the radium sights in the game because the contrast makes it really quick for me to pick my shots.
      I guess everyone just has different preferences and eye relief, I suppose.

    • @jrapcdaikari
      @jrapcdaikari 6 ปีที่แล้ว +11

      I guess in video game logic, its bad cause it covers up a lot of the screen. In real life tho, it was considered the best iron sight optic of the Great War. The Americans kept using that sight, even until today. The M16 has features similar to those iron sights

    • @Xerxes1688
      @Xerxes1688 6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      And the WWI M1918 BAR shares the same sights, and it was considered much better by many than the WWII era BAR. Honestly, the WWII BAR while still effective, was a subpar compared to other LMGs. Even the europeans improved the BAR much better than the americans did, by adding things like a pistol grip (in America you only saw that on commercial Colt Monitor rifles, not on USGI BARs), quick change barrels, less clunky bipods, they kept the semi and fullauto modes instead of adding that complicated slow and fast fullauto modes.

      I really like the AAs on the Howell compared to the irons. While have the whole gun take up the right side of your view is really frustrating, the circle center of the AA sights is pretty nice for close to medium ranges in my opinion. The irons are terrible though haha

  • @XVIIRelentless
    @XVIIRelentless 6 ปีที่แล้ว +19

    I personally dislike the Radium sights because of how the central needle is squared off at the tip. It's quite a slap in the face for snipers because the weapons it is used on are medium to long range and squared sights are not ideal for those ranges.

    • @zirconalian
      @zirconalian ปีที่แล้ว

      i think iron sights aren't meant for snipers in the first place

      using the iron sights for long range sniping is purely a test of skill

  • @Britisher11
    @Britisher11 6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I agree with most of the stuff on this list, but the one big one that's missing IMO is the default Carcano sights. They are absolutely terrible because they basically don't exist. You get one tiny front blade, which is normally nice, but there's almost nothing at all around it - just two ears that are really far away from that centre blade. This just means that the blade gets lost in anything of a similar colour, or in shadow - I hate it. The radium sights are a must, but are also terrible even moreso than normal - because the rear sights of the Carcano are so far forward, and the rifle itself is very short, it means the peephole on the raidum sights is even more tiny than usual. Added on that the rifle fires very quickly and the bolt is always getting in the way and in your face when cycling, I'd personally put both those sights on the Carcano above even the Enfield on a personal rating.

    Honestly, I'd put the perino lower in my list. I would frequently mistake the left nonfunctioning sight as the primary sight and end up missing several shots before I realized I was using the wrong sight. I instantly know where to aim with the madsen despite more clutter.
    Anyone have any opinions on the howell irons? It was improved but I always used the aa. Is it worth using the irons at all?

    I always never liked the radium sights but testing them with the lebel and it definitely changed my mind just for that gun. The smle I have gotten used to because aiming through an actual wood and metal replica of the MK III and I can attest the BF1 version is easier to aim than the real life counterpart especially the zoom. I was interested in the chauchaut AA sight but you convinced me that it seems too cluttered for intense infantry use. The perino however, was a personal favorite, I have no idea why other than the thin post sight. If they fix the Luger Artillery and swap the standard Luger sights with the post adjustable rear sight like in Verdun, I'd definitely use it more.

      @alecingram4669 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Overcomers Counseling exactly. In a video game, sight radius doesn’t matter and your eyes blur out the front sight completely when looking at a target in the distance or the front sight, especially when the front sight is further away. However video games factor in none of these so that’s why they’re so obstructive.

      Yo Chocolate yes! Very good on the Gewehr 98. Also I suggest you try the radium sights on the Arisaka specifically. It's not like radium sights on other guns. It comes up to a nice crisp point that is really good for popping medium range head shots

    Personally I'd put the chachaut's AA sight at number one. It's not useless, it's just obnoxious. I think that's why I hate it so much.

    @morgonfr33m4n1337z 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    as far as the SMLE's sights are concerned, its because DICE made the rear sight post VERY open (not just for the SMLE, but for EVERY gun)
    normally the SMLE sight picture doesnt show the side prongs
    also the BAR's rear sight is incorrect to the period, as the WW1 BAR had nearly the exact same sight picture as the American Enfield (which was a ring-shaped peep hole)

  • @arandomperson5434

  • @tastynoi7952

    The Pederson device in real life has a much wider rear sight window, so much to the point that you can see the normal iron sights in their entirety. So how did they manage to fuck that up?

  • @Ba11leFieldAce
    @Ba11leFieldAce 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The iron sights really make the vetterli infantry useless. It's a tricky gun to use as is, but with the horrible sights the gun becomes more of a useless curiosity than a viable means of attack.

  • @connordent3560

    I like the SMLE sights because if you know the bullet dynamics and ranges, you can use the forks on either side of the sight for moving targets

    It's interesting; this is the opposite stance of actual militaries. Because the ring site of the M1917 became beloved and is the basis for the sites of the M1 Garand, M14, AR-15 and more.

    I like the vetterli-vitali, It's other guns that have other stuff near the middle that makes it hard to tell where center is that drive me insane like the SMLE, I swear the first few respawns when I select that gun is me shooting using the left pillar instead of the center one.

    LMG's aren't meant to be used in the way shown above. You're supposed to take a position where you can set up a nest, mount the bipod, and lock down lanes and flanks. Not run around trying to use it like an assualt rifle or submachine gun. The sights on the Lewis Gun for example, they're made for mid-range engagements, not CQC.

  • @BDNeon
    @BDNeon 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    The entire point of the AA sights is for... AA. Those lines help you account for the many directions an aircraft might be moving in, at various speeds and distances. I often engage aircraft with machineguns, and did so well before the challenge for one of the gun unlocks was added. It's impressive how much a single infantryman with an LMG can inconvenience a pilot by constantly shaving enough damage off him to force him to disengage and waste time repairing.

  • @ElChubaNibre
    @ElChubaNibre 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Somehow I knew what was going to be no.1. From recent experience with LE1917 it seems to do pretty well, if you use the highish RoF to your advantage and forget the 100-> sweetspot. But still there are better rifles in the game.
    Personally I agree but might swap the smle to mosin.
    Keep up the good work

    • @YouCaughtCzars
      @YouCaughtCzars 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Trick with AA sights is to use them similarly to how you'd use the post and beam scopes with the side bars to aim at moving targets; you kind of line them up in the corner of your eye and use the entirety of the sight to kind of work in your favour. I have an open X reflex sight on one of my rifles and while the X becomes larger than the target past 200 meters, I'm used to what parts of the X you line up and center at different ranges.
