[BF6] Please bring back variable optic toggling outside of ADS (Like in BF4)

Hi everyone and devs,

I really miss a specific mechanical feature from Battlefield 4: the ability to change the magnification of variable scopes (like the 1-4x / SU-230) outside of ADS (hipfire).

Currently, you can only toggle your zoom level while actively aiming down sights. This slows down the gameplay flow. In BF4, you could easily pre-set your magnification to 1x or 4x before entering a gunfight, which allowed for much better tactical preparation.

I even rebound my optic toggle key to 'Q' for quick access, but it feels clunky having to quick-scope just to change my zoom level.

Please consider decoupling the "Modify Optic" action from the active ADS state, just like it used to be. It would make high-level gunplay feel so much smoother and more responsive!

What do you guys think? Anyone else missing this from the older games?
