Do you think hard scoping is cheap?
I've been seeing a lot of people say that hard scoping is cheap lately and I have been getting hate mail for so called "hard scoping" so I wanted to see if this is what everyone thinks
Personally I don't think it is. There isn't a hip fire reticule meaning...guess what...YOU HAVE TO AIM. Also think of it as reality. How many times do you hear on the news some guy just wiped out an army quick scoping them. Never. The scope isn't there for style or looks, you are supposed to use it and be more stationary/immobile. If someone is camping in the back of the map with only their sniper then go flank them, you already know exactly where they are. If you get sniped from that angle multiple times that's your fault. After the second time you should pretty much realist they are gonna be camping there the entire time. So please quit saying it's cheap/cheating/cowardly etc cause it's not at all that. They are simply using the sniper the way it should be used. I feel that the only reason people hate it is because with the large shotgun nerf and the high aa yd stare, people can simply camp in the back of the map with their buddies and rack up a portion of kills. This also slows the games multiplayer down which makes the experience boring and even dreadful for some players.
Also please explain why you have your opinion, I'd love to see why people think it is/isn't cheap.

There is a difference with moving, searching a surprise spot, killing and moving to a new spot..... ......Aaaand with looking at the same wall for 10 minutes straight.

It's been there since the game started and NOW it's complained about...people are just looking for things to complain about

That's what snipers do… why else do you have a -blam!-ing long range scope.

[b]Hard scoping a doorway at head level is the same thing as camping a doorway with a shotgun while crouched and kneecapping people.[/b] It's the same concept. Just camping and waiting for an unsuspecting victim. If you don't think either of these things are cheap, good for you.

Hard scope, quick scope, no scope, any scope, it just doesn't matter. If you're consistently getting killed the same way then you're doing the same thing wrong over and over.

The shotgun nerf and fusion rifle nerf from way back when has left crucible in a slow state. I was a day 1 player back when shotguns were good and crucible was much more hectic. Combined with the larger taken king maps, it is much harder to shotgun now. Havoc Pigeon has replaced my shotgun.

It's how snipers are supposed to be used. I blame the CoD community from the MW2 days.

Not cheap. It's called dominance over a lane. Imagine this, you're playing paintball and there's a wide open lane between you and the next bunker. Someone on the opposing team is posted on that lane, but you really need to get in that bunker so you can take guns off the other side of the field. If you can't take that gun off the lane then you can't get in the spot. Noobs will run right through the lane and get pieced up. More skilled players will wait until his/her teammates can make something happen, or try to snap him out. It's really simple everyone, don't blindly run into a lane. Have a sniper gain dominance on the lane and then move up.

That's what actual sniping is. The only thing that annoys me are ppl that camp and do it

Honestly people are using the sniper how it is supposed to be used, at a long distance. Try no-scoping from that distance.
-
Camping/hard scoping is cheap. People use cheap moves to get kills. Get over it and play on.
-
I really hate the term "hard scoping". You're supposed to aim with a sniper.
-
completely fair why? because it's the way the gun is supposed to be used
-
Hard scoping is the way a sniper is used! Wtf The casual player can't quick- or noscope! What is wrong with this kiddies fcking around how you aim with a sniper ftw

Honestly cant believe this is actually a topic but it actually is. Ive filed away the "hard scope issue" after the "aim assist" file and before the "nerf mida" file in my new "Things That Have Not Changed Since Day 1 and are Suddenly Being Complained About Now" drawer.

Sniping stops the people who are offensive
-
Why would it be? It's a long distance weapon with a precision sight. It's not cheap to use the technology as it's intended.
-
A good sniper hard scoping can control a good part of the map on their own. A bad sniper hard scoping is easily flanked and killed.
-
I'm a sniper but cmon if your going to the exact same areas on the map how could you not want to kill the opposing team
-
Dude everyone knows real pro snipers close their eyes and never ADS.
-
I don't like campers. However, there is a difference between hard scoping and camping.
-
M9 I'll hardscope you with my shotgun GG rekt

Here's something for everyone to into consideration when has a real sniper quick scoped never exactly.
