Currently Being ModeratedWanna know why Quickscoping needs to be in CoD?
lmao! ok..so to prove how much aim assist does NOT make quickscoping easy Im going to post another vid later on. I was sniping on Convoy yesterday and I was trying to quickscope this one guy and I swear I wasted between 5-8 shots on the guy before someone else shot and killed me.. aim assist does not help snipers with quickscoping.. I feel really sorry for you if you think think that.
@LewsTherinKinslayer - have you read any of my posts? Ive explained several times why shotguns and sniper rifles shouldnt be compared. #1. Just because a sniper rifle can perform at close range doesnt mean it can take the place of a shotgun. It has slower ADS, atrocious accuracy, and slower RoF. #2. Sniper rifles cant avoid close range combat because enemies will rush at them throughout the match while shotgunners can easily avoid going into wide open/long range areas. Therefore sniper rifles need to be capable at close ranges and shotguns dont need to be capable at long rang.
Even with quickscoping snipers will still dominate long range and SMGs, ARs, Shotguns will still dominate close range. SMGs can fire accross the map and kill a sniper from 1000yards away so why cant a sniper scope in and kill an SMG from 20 yards away? Sure its a OHK, but its slower ADS, shot has to be to upper chest or head for a OHK, semi-auto at best and the SMG guy will probably just hip spray anyways. The sniper is completely outclassed in all areas, theres no reason he shouldnt be granted the oppertunity to quickscope an incoming enemy.

Notice that there's nothing about running around the map expecting your sniper rifle to be just as effective as a shotgun or assult rifle in CQC.

Anyone still believing you need an insanely quick ADS time to use the sniper rifle needs to come back to reality.

It doesnt need insanely quick ADS. Just fast enough for a sniper to defend themselves at close range if they are good enough. Its not like anyone can pick up a sniper and do good at close range, it takes practice and it takes skill, unlike an AR or SMG which anyone can do well from pretty much any range.
@justinsanev2 - that is a neat little definition that you posted up there about sniping. Was there a definition about how to use an AK-47? Because I doubt it said anything like "separate from your team and run around aimlessly attempting to kill any enemies that cross your field of view". No, didnt think so. All Im sayin is, if you're going to apply real life rules and definitions to the sniper rifles then you must do the same for ARs. Do you think AR soldiers in real life are running around like they do in CoD? The answer is no. Real soldiers stick with their squad. They kill from a distance and do their best to avoid close range combat. So dont try to bring any type of realism arguments into a CoD debate because it really holds no merit.

Well since your asking questions about real life... Post me a link where a guy has a Sniper rifle on the move and shooting. I have seen plenty of shooting on the run with ARs, not a full sprint, but a methodical jog.
Where is Major when you need him?

Some one needs to learn to read and comprehed..let me help you
First off, vileself is simply replying to a comment that was posted by justinsanev2 saying that the definition of sniper was to sit back and pick people off and he went into further detail by mentioning real life by saying real soldiers don't run with snipers..and vileself just replied saying that people with ak47 don't just rush the battlefield aimlessly looking for kills then he explained how It's a game by posting this "So dont try to bring any type of realism arguments into a CoD debate because it really holds no merit."
So he actually ment that real life situations hold no ground In a debate about COD video game...
Anyway back on topic: the sniper class is the most difficult to use / underused,and outclassed weapon in every way, there is still no viable reason that can support a nerfing of any kind to the sniper class...
Sniping/Quickscoping is here to stay no matter how much you complain about it...
Have fun getting quickscoped in mw3 :)

There is no need to "soften" it. All they have to do is lower the mobility of the Sniper Rifle and that could possibly be a decent fix. As a matter of speaking about that I believe that Condrey has already said that they lowered the mobility of it. So you are basically forced to use EC to have better mobility.
I'm not worried about getting Hope Scoped. I have at least 90,000 more kills that any full time Hope Scoper.

Why would they mess with the mobility when the weapon people are going to be sniping with(L118A, MSR) weigh as much as an AR around 12-14lbs ... The only sniper I would agree on making the mobility slower is the Barrett .50cal because that's a 30lb gun.
