    Yeah happens to me too with the first sniper and undervarrel stand. Switching for another scope and back fixes this but not optimal in a firefoght

    Same on PC. Doesn't matter which optic I'm using, about half of my ADS turns into 1x zoom.

    Seems to also happen when throwing a grenade, or as others have pointed out really anything you do.

    @EA_Blueberry This has been happening to me since still and it does get annoying as there is no way around to get it to work in game again. Have you gotten any insight on when this will get fixed?

    @LBCdirtyD 

    The team is still aware of this. Specific time and date of a fix is not really known, but we're hopeful they'll get this addressed. Experienced this myself at random times so I know it can be frustrating if it causes death. Thanks for sticking it out for us.

    The current workaround to avoid this: Don't use the bipod attachment

    @EA_Blueberry Just played a game and didn't even have Bipod active in inventory and still does it from new match even starting and just no option to zoom. Not sure but don't think Bipod is culprit something else is triggering it.
