The new Battlefield needs the old Sniping mechanics back.

For the last few Battlefield snipers have just started to boil down to quick scoping and pointing and clicking, it would be awesome if in this new Battlefield would return to what we had back in BF4, where snipers are much less quick-scopey and require a lot more skill and patience than in the last few games. It would also be nice to see the return of higher magnification scopes that were missing from more recent games like 2042, I'm talking the 20x and the 40x scopes and the rangefinders because why not, along with that I would really like to see the ability to adjust the ranging of your rifle so players can more accurately hit those super far shots that are clip worthy.

  • Hello OMEN_K_1-6,

    Definitely a great idea. I’ve always preferred the older sniping mechanics from Battlefield 3 and Battlefield 4.

    Forgot to mention but I would also like to see bi-pods work like they used to, how you had to plant it down which would balance out how it reduced recoil for guns and completely eliminate sway for sniper rifles. and before you got up there was a small amount of time before you could start running which I thought was a fair bit of balancing that made snipers and machine-gunners commit to their play and could be punishing if it was a bad idea.
