    Why are the sights dull?

    In BF2 the red dot sights and a bit of a shine to them, but now in 2142 they're just a red dot that looks like it could have been made in MS Paint.

    I welcome the smaller dot - it hides less of your target and lets you track your target's movement better.

      Not just the shine effect, but the center of the dot was a bit brighter than the edges, not all one color.

        The BF2 style dots would get lost in the snow and bloom, so we reworked them to be visible in all lights and against all backgrounds. Remember the how vehicle HUDs would disappear against some backgrounds in BF2? Its a similar problem that we fixed for vehicles in 2142 as well.

                Yep but the default white sights are now lost against the snow, and certain skies e.g. Verdun.

                Hence changing mine to Green.
