Why nerf the snipers?

[SparklingNugs]

Wait so your crying that you can't quick scope? Really?

How dare he!!!!!!!!

God forbid they get rid of a glitchy mechanic in most FPS's.

Quick scoping has been on the fix list for a while now.

If that's true I really would like to know why. I could see how maybe it could be an issue on PC, but on console it makes the snipers pieces of ****. Instead of focusing on clearly overpowered weapons like the jackhammer they choose to go after lesser and more skill requiring weapons like the snipers?

Yeah, doesn't make too much sense to me.

Glitch mechanic really? You sir are an idiot, just dont reply because i can clearly see that you have an insanely biased opinion based on other games that have nothing to do with this game.

LOL at the post above, I'm next for namecalling huh? Awesome.

Quick Scoping takes skill?

Okay.

Snipers are skill with aimming, not pressing one button and aimming at a body.

Also, see Skaar's post for other reasons.

This is probably the first thread I've come across that has the consensus that quick-scoping doesn't take any skill. I never knew aiming down the sights takes more skill.....thanks for the newsflash guys!

Some people just don't deserve opinions...

It's not like when i hit the left trigger it activates an aim bot that automatically drags the scope to someones head. You still have to line up the shot just instead of using the giant needle reticle you can use the hipfire crosshairs to line up a shot on the nimble or speedy's on rollerskates.

wait, so firing from the hip only does half damage? why would they do this? was it that much easier to kill from firing at the hip?

Firing from the hip with snipers was fixed since the beta i guess it was to easy to line up a shot on pc with a dot, but now they made it so you have to wait a bit after scoping in to do full damage.
