Re: BF2042 ADS Slowed down after 3.2 Update

Hey all,

I merged a couple of threads as they are about the same topic.

Just to be aware, this is not a bug, but a change that went live with Update 3.2.

Thanks for the feedback on this.

    @EA_LeeuwMight I recommend the updating of the patch notes so that they mention this change in more detail?

    Thanks in advance

  • @EA_Leeuw  I understand the change and as I stated I am having this issue with every mag, my fastest gun ADS is the LMG. You have responded to several other users but have completely ignored my original post! I have been a LOYAL BF player since BF2 and this is honestly the first time I have had an issue I felt the need to complain about but with this issue I am only hip firing or sniping  because F2F is a lost cause with this aiming issue. I have tried many mags and they all have the same effect as described in my original post video!

    I got some curious news about the ADS speed nerf

    Apparently it is so half baked that it is only visual while the gun actually starts to fire at ADS accuracy before the animation is even finished!

    Here is a link to the video segment that shows it. Credit to Catalyst HD

    Maybe they should add the fast aim perk like they did in BF HL

    @EA_Leeuw "Just to be aware, this is not a bug, but a change that went live with Update 3.2."

    Fine. If they increased the animation time for drum mags, then why is the animation faster when double-clicking the aim button? Don't you think that DICE has forgotten how to do anything? Now DICE will be in second place in the category "spaghetti code" after Riot Games.

    "If you quickly press, and then hold down the sight, then aiming will occur almost 2 times faster [with drum mags] (0.27 seconds vs 0.17 seconds)."

    @pecmeserp
    Bloody hell!
    This change seems more broken by the day.
    This is why Battlefield needs open public testing for its patches.
