How it ended with that bad glint on all scopes for sniper rifles?

The developers quickly made an adjustment to scope glint. The information I'm sure we'll be posted in greater detail on this thread fairly soon. But thanks for asking. It is an important issue.

Apologies for the length of this cut-and-paste but Google AI provided a very good answer to my question.

Google AI stated:

Yes, after the Battlefield 6 open beta, developers stated they would reduce and "tone down" the intensity of the sniper scope glint based on player feedback, though the feature itself would not be removed.

Why the developers made the change:
Player feedback during the beta: Players heavily criticized the original scope glint for being too bright and conspicuous. They felt it gave snipers away too easily, was not realistic, and was almost impossible to hide. Some described it as a "massive spotlight" or a "bullseye" that drew immediate fire.
Developers acknowledged the problem: Following the beta, Principal Game Designer Florian Le Bihan confirmed on social media that the development team was listening to the community's concerns and would be scaling the feature down.

Balancing the recon class: The developers explained that while the glint would be toned down, it needed to remain as an important balancing mechanic. The Recon class has unique features, and the glint is intended to prevent snipers from being overpowered by making their position known when aiming down sights.

Lessons from past games: Some players noted that developer DICE had a similar history with scope glare in Battlefield 2042, going back and forth on its implementation before finding a reasonable compromise. This history suggested that adjustments would be made for the final release of Battlefield 6.

Thank you sir for the information.

So the result is they only toned it down for sniper rifles but all scopes still have glint right ?  They did not go the old BF3 or BF4 or BF2042  way and scopes below 4x do not hav glint at all.  

Pitty.  I think they should remove the glint from those low scopes.  You can not snipe with those lower scopes from 2km away at ll. Those are more for medium and short distance sniping that I like. To be close to the action and not sit on some hill 2km+ away with 20x scope.

So I really hope they will look at it in near future and do the same as in previous games give 0 glint to 4x or even 3x and lower sniper scopes.

Whiners like you made them practically eliminate glint.  Why cant you sniping losers just stfu.  Everyone was complaining about stuff that not an issue. Thanks for ruining the game **bleep** 

I really hope this is a bug, having glint on 1x, 2x, and 3x is so dumb...

if the devs say i'ts because the sweet spot mechanic, that's one more reason to remove this pathetic mechanic

Snipers truly need fear nothing except other snipers now and it shows.  I think the new scope glint is fine, but coupled with the new spotting mechanics good luck getting the snipers on your team to notice the guy who's been pinning you down.

Over the years they have made sniping easier so that it wasn't a 'wastes' class, but they made it's so easy that on some maps half the team would be snipers. The glint is there to deter every person and his dog from picking up a sniper rifle and taking (mostly) useless pot shots. I agree the scope glint is a bad mechanic, but unless they make sniping actually hard again, it needs to stay 

I don’t think having glint is bad for mid to high range scopes, but having glint on iron sights and 1x scopes is ridiculous (and yes I tested this with a friend and even iron sights, literally no scope attached has a glint)

I’m certain this must be a bug, but I haven’t seen any devs mention or comment on this, it really makes aggressive sniping impossible tbh.

Sniping for me is dead in this game.. glint on red dot sight, 2x and 3x ? what kind of players are Dice trying to protect with this ?
