I honestly had high hopes for this game when there was an interview stating that "Quickscoping isn't in the game, we don't want it" yet here I am, getting into lobbies with nothing but parties of snipers that are once again ruining a COD title with their stupidity.
How the hell can you make a statement like this claiming the eradication of quickscoping? Oh wait, it is the "F'UCK YOU LAST STAND" fiasco all over again. This game is built on lies and false promises.
Please don't ruin another title, I actually enjoy playing this game when people aren't running around with 1hk shotguns that work at any range. Make snipers a 1hk only when the scope is zoomed in and the "Hold Breath" is initiated (why put this in the game if it is never needed?) The hit detection on snipers is ludicrous, I can be shot in the foot or even 2 feet above my character and for some reason I get instantly killed. The amount of times I have had a 1on1 encounter with a sniper and lost because of them quickly scoping in and shoot the air around my character is infuriating, I just don't get the developers reasoning behind it.
Like I said, make snipers used as snipers by needing to have to completely zoom in and hold their breath when they aim and also only a 100% damage when either hit in the head or torso. You can't just give someone a 1hk weapon that is so exploitable an be happy, it just isn't fair. I can not take a shotgun and kill someone 30m away let alone 20 with a single burst, I see no reason why snipers get this amount of leniency every year without a counter.
Another balance could be to give us a perk like Juggernaut (included in ICU perk?) because I can tell you right now that wearing a ballistic vest still allows the snipers to deal out 1hk shots even at full vest health. Hell, even make a playlist for snipers only so they can fight each other instead of infecting normal playlists and ignoring objectives.
Please just get this sorted, I don't want to hate the game but it is hard not to at this point in time.
