Sniper rifle zoom should be variable. Sniping at 550m, while certainly possible, involves adjustments of 1-5 pixels, with the dot covering the enemy and then some. I'd like my future tech dropsuit and sniper rifle to have a variable zoom scope, either continuous or with 3-5 different settings. The current zoom works great for 150-300m shots, and while anywhere outside that range is completely doable, it feels wrong based on the scope's magnification.
If this is an unacceptable change, just decrease the size of the sniper reticle by about 50% so it doesn't completely obscure long-range targets. |

I would be up for Variable sniper zoom, I would also like a longer range for my rifle. 600m does not seem enough for a sniper rifle. I would like a 1500m range and then you would need the Variable Zoom.... And for having that extra range I would gladly have Bullet travel time and Bullet drop as well.... don't want to make it to easy for us snipers now do we
How do you like the sound of that or would that just be to much?

So using a sniper from 500m far on the redline is tactical gameplay?

guess it depends on how the game is going and how people communicate ..... be it 500m or 5m you still use tactics

I am literally dying to get variable zoom, ccp could leave the sniper alone for the next 20 years if they just gave us variable zoom on snipers

the worst thing that could happen is for snipers to begin sniping from one redzone. to the other redzone....again....on majority of the maps.....
unless u plan on giving ur self a balancing feature like appearing on every1s sensors for 10secs. every time u fire...
when u spawn in your own mcc or redzone at the beginning of the match only to get killed by a sniper from the other redzone.
something is wrong. |

As far as the zoom issue goes . I think that they tried to do that by giving us ( snipers ) the tactical rifles with the increase in zoom ( so it says ) and the Thales . Sure it would be nice to have increased range and changeable zoom but , this could be asking for too much and something of a unfair advantage .
The Forge Gun is a prime example of that to me . They claimed that they decreased the radius but this guy was tagging me from more than fifty and probably it was a little more than eighty meters , while I was riding in my tank . Yeah you say it's not true but it happened to me and the crap was still effective .

More range and zoom is useless as long as long distance rendering isn't fixed.
Or at least the reticule, so it will only turn red once you can actually hit your target, not when there's an invisible wall between your rifle and the target. |

Personally being a sniper, I think that is too much. The scope zoom does need to be addressed, but 600 meters is fine. I would rather see them fix the rendering. It's a pain in the but to have your target disappear and reappear. I would also like them to not have the target dot go red, and the information tell you a percentage of hit damage when they are behind something and cannot be shot.
Male or female, noob or pro, my SR is steady, and my trigger ready.
Walk or run, if you're in my scope, you will die!

Greater zoom past say 500-800 meters maybe not. But the ability to magnify what your looking at within your range yes!

No, sniping is too damn easy already.

"I get killed a lot by snipers", is NOT the same thing as "sniping is too damn easy already"
That's about logically equivalent to
"I see a lot of proto suits" therefore "getting proto suits is too damn easy"

Hideous. Absolutely hideous.
There are enough problems with hit detection, for weapons acting within *10 feet*
Having that kind of mess across a distance of 400m, means you'd never actually hit anything except by pure luck.

You, sir, have made the most sense I've seen in a long time in this AR spam hellhole. A shame I can only +1 you once.
Back to the topic, fix our X-ray vision when sniping (As in walls not rendering while players do), then give us adjustable zoom.

I've been playing this game for over a year and in that time I've seen the maps improve greatly. Better visual effects, but mostly getting bigger. But at no point in that time has the sniper scope issue been fixed. When the maps were smaller it didn't really matter that the scopes were unrealistically poor. But now the maps are much bigger the sights need to catch up. I know that snipers in the game are not well liked but we do serve a very real tactical purpose.
Yes as mentioned before there is the Thales but that's one rifle that you can't buy.
I'm in the military and I can hit a target with my standard issue rifle and standard issue scope at 800m but in this game that shot is impossible with a sniper scope.
If you don't want snipers in the game anymore then remove the weapons and return our skill points.
If you do then increase the scope zoom out to at least a 1000m. |
