Accessories | Weapons Battlefield 4 Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
Accessories are the weapon attachments that you unlock by using a given piece of equipment, or with "Battle Packs". It is thanks to them that you can make your favorite weapons suit your needs and liking. They can be used either to alleviate, or completely eliminate the unwanted side-effects to the using of a given weapon, or to reinforce their strong points. Every attachment, save the optics, the flashlight and the flash hider has a real bearing on the weapon's statistics. Some of the unlocked gadgets differ only in terms of their looks but their effect is the same - e.g. suppressors, which come in multitude, offer precisely the same results and the differences are only cosmetic.
When it comes to the optics, apart from the difference in the magnification scope, the rest also remains a matter of taste. Things are a bit different in the case of collimators - they do not offer any magnification of the target and the differences concern only the size and the color of the reticle but, their construction itself may have an key meaning to the user. The matter here is, mainly the range of viewing, limited by the collimator's housing, as well as they are visible through the lens itself.
Below, you can find descriptions of each of the accessories, as well as a screen printed for the purposes of comparison.
