Well, as annoying as they can be, I'm sure neither of us wants to be getting quick-scoped at point blank range either, so the balancing for something like this gets to be quite tricky. |

Stop that train of thought right there. Quick-scoping is the single most ******** mechanic to have been introduced into modern shooters. It isn't skillful, its just stupid.
You also have to keep in mind that sniping is stupidly overpowered right now thanks to a graphical glitch in the LOD mechanic. Right now anyone outside of a certain range shows up as a solid black silhouette up against the terrain. Long-range sniping is easier than closer range, right now. |

It isn't skillful, its just stupid. As stupid as it, is its even stupider to say it doesn't take skill. It takes some serious reflexes. I can't do it tbh.
It takes being able to pull the trigger when the dot lights up, which is the same thing long-range sniping currently requires because of the graphical glitch I edited my post to mention. One of the best snipers in my Corp has given it up for this build because he feels ****** killing people who can't even see him. |

Graphical glitch or not.
Oh, no, I was talking about extreme range with that glitch. If you can counter the scope sway in this game and pull off such a shot, more power to you. |
