Weapons range problem (F2 but probably in F1 also)

First time out of the vault
Is there any way to scroll screen in combat further? For instance, im using scoped Hunting rifle (Range45) and fighting raider using FN FAL (R 35) but i just cant aim him at all on more than 35 hexes so if i come any closer he can shoot back, what is a problem for END 2 char. if you know what i mean :oops: .
So range advantage is screwed up. Why would anybody use Laser rifle (R 45) instead of Plasma Rifle (R 25) if its not for range?
Am i missing something? Please help :!:
 
It's perfectly possible to shoot up to the 50 hexes a Sniper Rifle allows... To scroll the screen just drag the cursor to the edge of the screen.
 
Actually, weapon ranges are greater than maximum scrolling range - I recall being hit by Shi from outside scrolling range.

My point exactly! Maybe its because so PC couldn't scout NPC's and to give Motion sensor a purpose, but it sux! I want to shoot 50 hexes like any other coward! :evil:
 
You could use the resolution patch to extend your line of sight, but since it's pretty unstable, you'd better be off with using cover to approach your enemies.
 
I can't recall having that problem. Not that I've ever counted hexes... At Sierra Army Depot, outside the base there are those turrets, it's perfectly safe to shoot down 'em with the Sniper Rifle from near the shack with the Howitzer, I wager the range is around 40-50 hexes...
