both should be the same in my opinion, why would one have more recoil then the other if they are the same weapon?

The "No" vote isn't clear enough, as deadfast said.
I also think that all each weapon should have equal recoil when used with or without optic. |

The amount of perceived recoil when zoomed in on a scoped weapon would by the law of physics be more than the amount of perceived recoil from iron sights. Much like the movement from x2 zoom in a Tank is much more than the perceived movement at x1 zoom in a Tank.
If you view a horizontal line as your pre-fire angle (X) and then demonstrate the angle of the weapon at the greatest height at recoil (A1) and then the variable distance of view as the (Y) side of the triangle then the (Z) distance will be greater between the two. Optical Zoom (Y1) will be longer than iron sight zoom (Y2) and hence you will have a (Z1) and (Z2) distance in the third side. Draw it out for yourself. Put a straight line on a piece of paper and then draw another line out about 25 degrees up from that straight line. Make the line about 2 inches long now draw a dotted line from the end of that about 2 more inches long. From the horizontal line draw a vertical line up to the first 2 inch end section and the another vertical line down the straight line up to the end of the dotted line. The distance of the vertical line is Z1 for the solid line and Z2 for the dotted line. Hence your viewing distance is greater when zoomed in with optics than with iron sight. The end result should be two triangles one within the other but sharing two sides. Simple physics really. Hence the recoil when zoomed in optically should be perceived to be greater than when zoomed in with iron sights with the naked eye. The actual recoil of the gun doesn't change but the perceived recoil does change. So taking the question, "Should Scoped Weapons have more recoil that Iron sights?" and rewriting it to say more clearly, "Should Scoped Weapons, when viewing through the Optical Zoom, have more perceived or visual recoil than Iron sight weapons when also zoomed?". The answer to that would be Yes. |

Why not lower the ironsight recoil as well, so they could be the same without the scope recoil going insane? I guess gameplay reason. Such a change would probably have quite some effect on infantry combat. | |

The both weapons should have the same recoil.
When you're looking through the scope it looks like the recoil i much bigger but it's just an illusion. |
