Rattati talked a bit about this recently. They're going to be more styled around like a marksman rifle....you're not going to lay prone or sit in one place for a long time. It's going to be more...move, line up the shot, fire, keep moving. More of a long range support style of weapon.
Also no quick scoping, woot.

But that's how it was in Dust if you wanted to be effective. Hate to keep sounding like the one hating everything about Nova, but if they try to make it more pronounced, it essentially will be quickscoping arcade ****.
Already been confirmed that it's not possible to quick scope. Even the gameplay footage shows an accuracy indicator that requires you to remain scoped in for a second or two before it's reached full accuracy.

He's probably speaking more to the more mobile marksman gameplay as opposed to sitting in one spot for a long period of time like a sniper.
They've been pretty clear this far that quick scoping will not be in Nova.

Just seems counter intuitive and a general push towards more generic twitch based gameplay. Guess we'll have to see.
Unless you're outside their range, which is kinda the point right?
You watched the sniper rifle gameplay video right?

Here you go Fiend.
You can see how quickly the accuracy dials in by the red marks on the edges of the scope that slide to the center when he scopes in.
