Call of Duty Ghosts: quick-scoping may be gone completely, says Rubin
Speaking on Twitter at the weekend, Rubin penned a statement on the matter to fans:
Update/Clarification regarding Sniper Rifles:
One of the areas that is getting lot of love in Call of Duty: Ghosts is the Sniper Rifle. By creating the Marksman class we were able to focus the Sniper class on really powerful high-caliber weapon systems. We feel, and many of the pro players who have played would agree, that sniping has never been better.
The changes we’ve made, like dual render scopes and increased damage really make snipers a great competitive class to use. We’ve also done a lot with map design (sight lines and cover) to ensure that all classes are viably effective. Both short range and long range classes will be effective on the same maps.
However in re-envisioning sniper rifles some aspects, such as sway timing, have changed the way sniper rifles function and so traditional “quick-scoping” has been affected. Is it gone completely? Maybe. It certainly won’t be viable in the way it previously was. Can’t wait for you snipers out there to get your hands on these new sniper rifles and try them out for yourselves.
See you in game!
-Mark
Personally, sniper rifles are powerful because they demand skill at long range. That’s where the balancing kicks in. Using a sniper rifle to the same effect at point blank range is a balance-breaker in my book, but then again everyone’s different so there’s no right or wrong answers here.
That said, what do you feel about the possibility of quick-scoping disappearing? Let us know below.

bigchukka Great news! It NEVER took any skill it only took a little practice "to get the hang of it". It ruined most game modes, you would unload half a mag then get "quickscoped".
I wouldn't mind a sniping only playlist that let them do all their setting up in it..but having no quickscoping is also amazing news
Careful a quickscoper but talk down to saying "it does take skill". psh if i had a nickel for every time i heard that excuse i'd be rich.

Holy shit, people are getting so **** frustrated over this. It's a bullshit tactic anyways. If you want to Qs, go play MW2/3, no one's stopping you.

IllustratedDestroyedWoobie I am so glad, this just made my day.
Amen woobie! I'm tired of all these kids thinking that they will get into FaZe and it also ruined Search and Destroy.
That's ******** and you know it. You can quickscope in any game mode. The annoying trick shotters ruined SnD, not all quickscopers in general. Quickscoping is the ONLY fun way to play call of duty and the ONLY way that involves any skill.
How cute. You totally don't need skill to play CoD right? Just spray and pray and if you die, blame it on hacks and lag.

You and everyone else is saying "I'm glad it's gone" because you get killed by them, and you suck too bad to kill a sniper.
No offense but you just sound like a complete nerd.
