Why are there no 8x scopes on DMRs like the P8-AR and S71, no 4x scopes on the Coda, and why does the P8-AR have a delayed recoil feel? Also, will the railgun be able to take a sight?asked by ZerekMasters

TL;DR8x scopes on rifles don't fit the intended FPS direction (though one was approved for the LMG), pistols only take size 1 optics, the P8-AR recoil delay is a deliberate feel choice, and railgun sights may come later.

- why no 8x scopes on DMRs like p8-ar or the s71
Not wanted in terms of FPS direction, last time I spoke to my boss about it, just wasn't inline with what was wanted for rifles
I asked very politely for it on the LMG and it was approved, maybe something that can be re-visited.
- why no 4x scopes on the coda?
As above, pistols only use size 1 optics
- P8-AR has a weird delayed recoil am i the only one who thinks this?
This is just a feel thing, the time between shots has a short delay so you get a consistent climb, it feels worse if you have it constantly 'recoiling' during the pause and it more inline with more recent recoils having less visual recoil to massage the focus on tracking vs controlling the gun.
- being able to put a sight on the railgun would be a nice QOL too
Not this but some bits further down the line for this
