SWS-10 Sniper Rifle Optic Change

I am playing on the PS5. 

This occurs when switching between the x6 optic and a lower optic (e.g. iron sights or red dot). When switching back to x6 optic, the x6 zoom does not occur but rather the x4 or x1.25(?) zoom of the other optics. In other words, the x6 optic will be on the gun, but the x6 scope only zooms in x4 or x1.25(?) of the previous optic used.

This does not occur 100% of the time. I have found that I can resolve this issue by switching back to the lower zoom optic and back to the x6 optic. I have a theory that this might happen if the optics are changed too quickly without allowing the animation to finish but I am not sure if this is the case.

  • Seems to be broken. Also stops working when using the Falck heal gun and then trying to zoom.

  • To further elaborate on this, I've noticed that it switches the optic's zoom to 1.25x every time the gun is unequipped, including after getting revived, throwing grenade, dropping an ammo box etc. Just switching the sights doesn't always help, but switching and aiming down sights with other sights then switching back to the optics worked every time.
