ZoomOut Function resets in some Occasions.
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

As with ArmA2, we're able to zoom out and stay zoomed out by doubletapping the zoom out key.

That basically still works fine, except that this zoomed out state is reset in certain occasions.

  1. When you aim down your sights (even Aimpoint or Holosights).

The zoomed out view when using sights was very useful for close quarter engagements, allowing for a better situational awareness while still beeing able to react quickly without having to bring up the sights. This will be especially helpful in combination with the new combat walk.

  1. In Vehicles.

Here the zoom out basically works (by holding the zoom out button) but it isn't triggerable. It always zooms back in unless you keep the button pressed.

Please make this function consistent so it works in all those cases.
Alternately (if the above isn't possible), make sure it remembers the last state.

Agreed. I'll mark that off of the list to report.. My thoughts exactly... I should be able to have the zoom out stick AT LEAST when not using a scope. Honestly I think I should be able to keep the zoom out toggle on in all vehicles, and with all weapons, given that Im in FIRST PERSON.

Closing due to lack of activity for over 5 months. If this issue/request is still valid in the latest dev build, please create a new ticket or ask for this one to be re-opened.
