Sniper rifle and scope

[Mara]

Devs... What you have done to scope is awful, sorry.

I have no idea who accepted that but how the &@! can you zoom in EVERYTHING outside the scope? I click the right mouse button and whole screen zooms in. Why? It is so stupid. This is not CS.

And now - one want to zoom in to see clearly where to place the shot. BUT everything inside the scope is blurred and dark (!) Why, oh good God, Satan and Thommy Iommi... WHY!?

Can't see anything through that scope. Can't set the distance either so I have no idea if I am shooting at 200m, 500m or 1000m. No way train that.

My suggestion.
1. Just black out all outside the scope or blur the left side (where you can open your eye to see the surroundings) BUT NOT ZOOM IT :D
2. Make all inside the scope SHARP and not dark! What is the point of making scope dirty? Snipers clean the scope etc. How can you use dirty scope?!
3. Remove the blur inside the scope. Everything is shaky like in MAFIA when you are drunk.
4. Tell us to what range is this scope set up to.

Thank you and sorry for a bit of rage.

WOW. really? ;D Here it won't get lost. that's why.
P.S. 10 minutes of playing and FPS dropped to 15 from 60... ALT+F4 again today.

I agree. The new scope is just eye cancer. I mean, come on: You can see see better looking at the sides of the screen, past the scope, not through it. Like, the actual scope is just a malus, you want to look away from it, not through it!

Also, it's vibrating... why the hell is it vibrating so much? Not just movement due to the character breathing, but, like, shivering. Not fun to play with.

[Mara]

Yes it is better to look outside the scope. Zoomed in anyway lol

[CAЯИØLØGΞ]

Oh my...i thought it's just a texture bug or something. It is not impossible to hit people but looking through that scope gives you eyecancer

[Strahlentod]

Oh god... i thought my game is broken.
It's really horrible and i get headache from this blurry, shaking, laggy scope.
I hope there will be an hotfix for this. Even with holding your breath it's nearly unpossible to aime small targets 'cause of the shaking and blur.

Please (!) bring back the old scope size and vision!

I Agree. I have better optics on a bb gun at home. These new optics look like your watching the heat rise off of a hot road in Arizona while looking through a piece of glass you just pulled out of a fire. Plus, you can't hold breath to steady the shot either. I hate being so negative here recently, but damn...

As someone who has never played sniper, this sounds like a good change ;)

It's PIP now, so making zoom only apply inside the scope should be possible.

That's what I expected after watching the sneak-preview-videos! I mean, it's totally okay for me if the sights are not crystal clear. A bit of dust, totally okay. But this is way too much... And the fact that the outside regions of the screen are zoomed in just as much as the scope makes your eyes (or well, at least mine) wander away from the zoom. Why should I look through it if the outsides are so much clearer? Oh wait, the crosshair, damn....

The scope should be designed in a way that you *want* to look *through* it, even if it's not perfect. But currently I just want to look away...

I completely agree! Played sniper today and was shocked at how bad it was. Did we drink 10 energy drinks before going into battle? Did this particular scope accidentally get made with blown glass? Also, time after time I put the cross hairs center mass on a stationary target who was well within range for bullet drop not to be a factor whatsoever and when I shot, I missed. Over and over again. It wasn't a lag issue either. It was just straight up broken and I went the entire match getting an embarrassing three kills...o e of which was with my sidearm because the Springfield hit detection was non existent. Yes ...that is how close to the enemy I was. Is it just broken now?

Yeah I got to use it myself last night and it's atrocious lol. The way leaves are rendered makes' fuzzy trails all over the place and it's almost impossible to see anything above ground level. I highly doubt they intend it to stay like this but oooff. It sure ain't pretty.

I think that was a nerfing of the sniper class. Recon units are not fun to play anymore.

[Mara]

I think I have the solution.

I was always (ok, most of the time) using simple trick to have a sharper graphics:

Go to graphic options (right away when you are logged into the main menu or anytime) and just click ACCEPT. That's it.
Now check your character is way more sharper and not so smugged. Worsk when you have anti-aliasig like high or ultra. I have no idea why it is like this.

AND NOW. If you click ACCEPT in graphics (without changing ANYTHING) the scope looses this blur, smudge and ♥♥♥♥. It is cristal clear :D
