Please don't increase sniper zoom. The reason that I use these scopes is because I like mobile sniping and I do it in pretty much all games that have a sniper. If I wanted to use a long range scope I would use one. Short range sniping requires thumb skill, and increasing scope zoom not going to be a good way of solving this issue of many people using this style of sniping. Maybe decreasing aim assist and accuracy on snipers across the board would be a better way of approaching this problem. Update: I've noticed that many people are saying that snipers are not supposed to be used in close range. This is definitely true, however, just because it is not supposed to be used in close range doesn't mean that nobody should. Also, both short range and long range sniping will be affected. This will be like going from a short range scope such as ambush or shortgaze, to the longview or the tacsys. The different zoom will be hard to adjust to. Updade #2: Many people are saying that close range sniping is abusing the sniper. To this I will ask on rhetorical question to all of you people: which is more difficult, hardscoping or mobile sniping?
