Scoped weapons can be equipped with varying levels of magnification, such as 2x, 5x, 10x, etc. I'm pretty sure that only a handful of zoom levels will work without causing Exception, which is why we don't have any 50x scopes. Does anyone know the highest acceptable level of magnification, and any other numbers that might work?

50x? thats pretty powerful.... trying to see an amoeba? might be okay for coldsnap or extinction though. i havent tried going that high, so i didnt know it exceptioned...


Well, the 50x was just for example. But I've seen similar things happen to peoples' scopes when they try inserting a random integer, so I think there are only a few that will work.

I got to about 15 before I got problems. I tried it on Halo PC with the Pistol. It would eventually zoom in and look weird and then as it went higher, exceptions became prevalent.

Well, I tried, and 9001 is sure as hell out of range.
Though giving a weapon 9001 Force interestingly leads to the creation of what I like to call the Delete-on-Click Tool.

Well then. I suppose another question would be whether or not there's any way around the zoom limitations.

Using it on a player will send them out of the map, then they'll start to kind of peel apart.... don't ask me why, it just happens :O
