Hi,

I unlocked Advanced Zoom for 5,000 XP and then purchased it for 2,000,000 CBills, added it to my mech and clicked save. Shows as equiped to my Mech and the 2,000,000 CBills are gone. But when I go in game and use the "Z" (zoom) key, it still only does 1.5x and 3.0x. Where is the 4.0x zoom?

Thanks

V

Z activates the standard zoom levels. V activates your module vision mode.

Thanks, was just about to post that it used the "V" key.
As for the zoom itself, it is kind of a disapointment, it is just a blurry little box,
Why can't they just make it use the "Z" key and change the max zoom from 3.0x to 4.0x?

I guess we forgot to put up a giant post for the new guys to avoid the zoom module. Sorry bub. It may change in the future; but until then, it is rather pointless.

The zoom module is pointless until you run a Gauss or PPC setup then it is worth it.

Although lackluster in appearance, I make great use of the PiP zoom when in thermal mode at 1k out.

So The Advance Zoom is a complete waste of money and time. You guys need to fix this, or repay GXP and money. Its completely broken, its like looking threw a 1.0 mp camera.

Please fix. Thx

So I just got the Advanced zoom Talent, I push "V" and nothing happens.

I have restarted my client a few times. Anyone know whats up?

Uninstalled and reinstalled, still a no go

you need to add the module to a mech for one.
The other is the Cryengine does not handle PIP well and it really slowed the system down by basically rendering things twice. PGI knows this and is trying to figure out something.

Add the module? I guess I had no clue about this. I will see if I know how to do this.

So, how do you add the module? I just tried and tried but saw no way how to add it.
