Can anyone tell me how to use the markings on the dragonuv scope to a good effect, cos im sure it adds something to the snipey, snipey, catchy commie, aspect of the game but its no fun if i dont know how to use it.

Read your manual that came with the game. Tells you all about both sniper rifles.

yes thank you very much but i didnt say i couldnt read i said i didnt know how to interpret the markings on the dragonuv scope and the manual is not totally clear to me and in practise it does not seem to work in the manner it leads me to beleive that was why i started this topic.

Quote from manual - "Each chevron is approximate to 250m distance from your position."

Look at the pics on the left.  That explains the curved line to find the distance.

And from the horizontal 10-10 lines.  After finding the range with the curved lines, if the target is moving, count that many lines over and fire.

The manual DOES explain it all.

How does it not explain the Markings?

i don't think this is much of an issue since the usefull view-distance being used in most maps (MP) is 600 metres. as long as you aim the top chevron to the head you should have no problem making a hit, unless the guy is prone that is, a shot like that separates the men from the boys hehe.
