Ngl boys.. I’m struggling to have fun with the Sniping on Modern Warfare 4 rn :/ I genuinely feel like I’m holding a walrus. The snipers are so janky and clunky that it feels like my character is struggling just to hold the weapon. Follow-up shots are frustratingly difficult because of how much the scope and gun wobble around, aka the “rechamber accuracy”, a problem that’s already been addressed in the last three CODs. The slower ADS speeds only makes things worse. I understand wanting to balance snipers, but there are ways to do that without ruining the overall feel of the class. The “rechamber accuracy” stat needs to be removed entirely or toned down significantly. Learning to center your shots and stay consistent with a sniper while managing recoil is already a skill in itself. Having the gun, scope, and reticle shake all over the screen on top of that is excessive and makes sniping feel unnecessarily clunky and inconsistent. It doesn’t add meaningful balance.. it just makes the class frustrating to use As for the Mosin, other than the rechamber accuracy it feels great. But 55 RPM? Why would I want to use a rifle that gets twice as many hitmarkers for only a 3 RPM difference compared to the Vulcan? Marksman rifles should stand out for their speed, with the trade-off being lower damage. That’s what gives them their identity. Hope to see some changes soon
