bf3: kobra vs holographic sight

This is a quick video over why i personally choose the kobra sight over holographic and other sights. It all boils down to personal preference but there are a few characteristics that make the kobra better for an aggressive play-style.

Kobra
• 1.0 zoom
• allows for fast movement side to side up and down
• larger field of view. allows for better side angle views

Holo
•1.5 zoom
• slower scoped in speed
• smaller field of view

If you like to sit back or have a harder time seeing players go ahead with the Holographic sight.

QUESTION!

what sight to you recommend for LMG's? I use the holographic sight because of the bullet spread. The RDS is too accurate and unrealistic to be successful with an LMG. You recommend Kobra as a nice middleground?

@jmxbox i run kobra on all guns

Just wondering; do you prefer the Kobra over the US RDS? And if so, why?

Personally, I seem to prefer the US RDS, but I see a lot of tourney players like yourself play with the Kobra.

@wrongwayup you can simply see more... the red dot covers too much..

Wow, I never noticed the zooming in holo. I guess that's why I don't like it. Critical point here (other than speed) is that the Kobra doesn't 'crop' your screen when you go into scope view. The white bars help to get the idea across, but based on comments here I think some folks are missing that point. I'm assuming RDS is also 1x / not cropping the screen. In your opinion, is it parallel in quality to kobra? (I feel better with a dot than a cross, which I think varies per player...)

@lmuellerjr trying to show the FIELD OF VIEW YOU LOSE while using holo...

[PersianPrideTime]

Awesome video! I always look forward to your new videos

[RageQuitFan]

@hanphilip red dot occupies more screen space, it has "thicker housing"

[kodytube]

for some retarded reason i cannot use any sight BUT the reflex

i used to be good with all sights took a week break and now that is all i can use

lol but its wierd

i do better with that sight than i did when i could use all the sights better ;/

so kinda wierd and nice

[Tyjamicar]

what is your sensitive speed on?

[Waystedtsg]

So the difference then is Reflex/RDS compared to Cobra is only the reticle and the fact the reflex dot blocks your view making it harder to judge headshots? thats what i was thinking when choosing between the two i dont really see any advantage in using the higher magnification scopes on anything but sniper rifles and maybe the 3.4x on a LMG if using a bipod.

[MisterTwister2015]

very nice videos you do about bf3, best i viewed THX

@rivaLxfactor sniper Rifel?

[Bigthingreg]

I'm colourblind so HOLO is a must for me. The only time I used KOBRA is when I'm using a shotgun.

[Matt2501]

Reflex and Kobra are basically the same so it doesn't make any difference which one I use, that right?

[rapistmurderer]

I like the holographic better because of the smaller dot. Kobra jumps around too much during shooting and the thick lines covers the enemy further away.
