Black Ops Iron Sights

[redstorm_05]

Ive been looking at all of the trailers and gameplay and im a bit worried about somthing...

Why do quite a few guns have the same iron sights?

They seem to have the famas sights but i never liked them anyway, im confused because the guns are from different companys and stuff so why are they the same?

this is my first post so please dont eat me :? :lol:

Because the game is so much about customization, no one will care about iron sights

Welcome to the site :D

I think you can buy different iron sights, so maybe everybody just likes those. Or maybe its just laziness. I noticed it too, in a video of gun game I saw, like every gun had the FAMAS sights. Could be some sort of balancing feature too. Though I don't know why they would do that.

yeah i heard somewhere that you can actually buy different iron sights for your weapon. But all we have seen so far is the standard "Famas iron sight".

a lot of guns have those irl. and only the famas and commando have those so far from what i have seen

the g11 and some other gun i saw in some leaked game play had those and the hk21 and mp5k have the same ones but those are from the same maker so its understandable

Helps balance the guns? I dont know...

I dont think they are customizable, they would have shown us already...right? :?

because that type of iron sight is really good its the Diamond iron Sights And they Are very Famous plus like they say it wont matter with all the costomization

-You can't customize your iron sights. People are probably getting this confused with how you can use the "Upgraded Iron Sights" Attachment on pistols.

-A TON of guns have these iron sights.

-Famas

-G11

-Enfield

-Aug

-Commando

-M60

And dont be surprised if the FAL's iron sights are the same too (We havent seen the FAL's iron sights yet)

Most of the guns in this time period that are experienced in the game were prototypes. They had no specific features, parts, mechanisms etc. Treyarch is going off military advisory and general creativity to design and implement these guns into real situations. Designing Iron Sights could not be seen as a main focus because they will eventually be cut off by Scopes, Red Dot Sights, etc etc... That is why the FAMAS has the same iron sight as an LMG. :lol:

Those sights are great anyway. I will be using some form of optic on the guns anyway, so i wont really be worrying about that.

Also, lol at your avatar StopDropnKill :D

yeh you can buy your iron sights so its personal preference!

those iron sights shouldn't be called famas iron sights, the sights on the famas in mw2 weren't the famas' real-life sights: they're special precision sights, the famas' origional sights can be seen folded down.

my guess is since so many weapons were prototypes, the military wanted some standardization so all the prototypes had the same sights.

in the case of the g11, that gun has no iron sights in real life, an acog is permenantly attached. so treyarch literally had to make them.
