Scopes
Just a question, does anyone truly know which scopes are the best in what order? I'm not entirely sure but I think they go from shortest to longest like so: Red dot (not really a scope), Low Scope, 4X scope, 12X scope, high scope. (This is not including the unlockable med. scope or the thermal)

I don't think there is a best scope. It all depends on the map, and how close you will be to the enemy. Having to much scope, or too little will screw you up though.
But if you ment "best" by magnifacation, then your right. And the thermal is 4x's, and the medium scope is 3x and 8x.

Yes but remember. Each scope in that order is also heavier. Them theres the very heavy thermal scope

Red dot is nice because not only does it provide scope clarity, but it also tightens your crosshairs a great deal, about as much as the laser sight, maybe a little more.

I love using the thermal scope, especially at night.
The other night I got 15 kills in one game using this scope.
I found a highly traveled area, got behind some cover and BOOM HEADSHOT!
It was a lot of fun!
