No quick-scoping in Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare, promises SH

4.4
Sledgehammer’s Michael Condry is promising no quick-scoping in Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare.

Speaking to 3 News, he said that the development team has worked hard to balance classes, leaving less room to exploit auto-aim and diminish the semi-realistic nature of the shooter.

“Let me put it this way, sniper classes are not going to be overpowered relative to their peers,” he said. “The ability to master a sniper rifle and be great at it will be equal to the ability to master any other class.

“We’ve done some things to make sure snipers are not able to take advantage of their properties – for example, there are attachments based on weapon classes that are specific. The ability to quick-draw with an assault rifle is important, but you don’t want to have the ability to quick-draw with a sniper rifle because that lends itself to being a faster, quick-scope model.

“We spent a lot of time trying to focus on it so I think sniper class players will find that it’s a really rewarding experience, but it won’t be over-powered relative to their peers.”

Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare is out November 3 for Day Zero pre-orders.

What they say and what they do are two different things to be honest, they will make it harder and less convenient to quickscope, it will still be possible, just as it was on Call of Duty: Ghosts. I do not see the big problem with quickscoping, it is a rather fun element of the game as it gives you a fun way to play when you get bored of taking it too seriously leveling up, completing challenges and unlocking camouflages.

DeluxeHazard That's what Treyarch said in BO1, but people can still quickscope in it.


There will always be quickscoping. No matter what, you can't stop someone from clicking LT and RT real fast.

Good. I'm fed up of kids complaining about being killed by an AR, claiming "you suck, you can't even snipe, noob, omg, ughh". The game will probably still be awful though.

Ages Well there goes half of their sales! He promised No quickscoping and says "it will be as hard as any other class" Half of the people that play CoD Snipe so there goes money on different Games. Stupid Creators

Maybe because of a large majority of the CoD community complained about qs.
Honestly, I think they should just have a separate gametype for quickscopers like MW3 promised.
I loved BO1 sniping system though.

It really doesn't bother me if they have quick-scoping in the game or not.

SmurfsPosted:

It doesn't really affect me because I never snipe, but I can see how this could anger some people.

gtapro151 quick scopeing is better then somone just camping laying down somware snipeing the whole game thats what ruines it at least the quick scopers move around.


Thats what snipers do? You wouldnt see a real sniper running around a battlefield spinning around in circles and firing randomly. CoD is nowhere near realistic but at least its trying to be.

Trying to be realistic? I'm sorry what? Have you seen those exo-suits dude?

Good. I'm sick of going ham on a 50 gun streak on any game to just get some little 10 year old 1 hit me randomly for no reason because he missed his shot but the sniper bullet hit me anyway because he's running around quickscoping like a little FaZe wannabe.

All the little sniper fanboys will be upset but people who were actually good at the game and wanted to run around with gun skill and be able to have gun fights without being 1 hit will be happy.
