I can NO LONGER zoom in/out with binoculars & sniper rifle.. BUG?!

[WheresMyPants]

I'm just about to complete the main objective in the Atlantic Wall mission and my zoom is no longer working. Worked as intended earlier but the scroll button on my mouse no longer zooms in/out as intended. Here's a short YT video I uploaded demonstrating the problem. Any advice on how to remedy this issue?

Sounds like you may have set the difficulty to Authentic.

Did you reboot? Sounds like an issue with the mouse to be honest. The binocs have greater zoom than x2 in authentic so that definitely isn’t it.

I just finished SE4 and started SE5 on hard difficulty.

I'll try switching mouses but I'm currently using a Razer Basilisk Pro 35k I bought a few months ago.

This happens here sometimes too. And is not only the zoom, sometimes the rifle won't shoot as well. My guess is that the character get stuck on some animation or action, because here it usually fixes itself after doing some other action like getting a firearm from the ground or doing a takedown.
