This is getting ridiculous. Im sick of people using quick scope. It is not part of the game in any way. You have to tweek scripts in order to be able to do that. It is not a standard part of the game or else valve woul dhave made the quick scope natural. I beleive this clan should not allow people to use this exploit/script tweeking because first of all, not everyone who plays has quick scope and therefor it is a disadvantage to those who do not have it, much like a hack if you will. I am not trying to start a debate here, I am just tired of seeing people hog up the sniper rifle and go 200 kills and 24 deaths because they jsut run around quick scoping basically having a one-hit-kill semi-auto rifle. House leaders, Clan founders, Coucil members.....What do you think? Do I have a point?
 
Can someone explain maybe the process of quick scoping? does it mean the iron site come out faster.
 
It is absolutely not an exploit, and yes anyone can do it without any scripts. All it is is hitting the sprint key as you scope, which makes the scope come up slightly faster than normal. Calling it cheating is just wrong. Its a skill that takes time and practice to master, you can't call that cheating any more than you can call a jump shot in basketball cheating just because you can't make one. Its how every single sniper in competition uses the rifle, so I would just suggest you learn how to do it instead of trying to get it labeled as an exploit.
 
its not an exploit, it is just an edge, i dont use it, but i dont care, i can beat them anyway i think, but thats what i think, and what fry said, you could learn/get better with it
 
I agree with Fry. You don't need to "tweek any scripts" to do it. All it is, is pressing forward + sprinting right before you scope. This brings the scope in a little quicker than normal, and it also works with iron sights.

Any sniper in CAL will quick scope. I don't consider it an "exploit" either.
 
Take it easy fry. You responded to this thread like a personal attack on you. Were all brothers here remember? No need to get hostile.
 
Personally, I hate quick scoping. However it IS part of the game and I have learned to deal with it by nading first and asking questions later. I kill a lot of people that think they will have the drop on me by priming a nade and jump thowing it as I a round the corner. Doing it right depends on knowing the map you are playing on but when you do it's "Bye bye snipers." Of course I die too, but that's called "Taking one for the team."

As everybody already said, it's just part of the game. It's hard to learn but train yourself in stead of annoy the hell out of yourself because you get killed by it all the time.

Or another thing, learn to be smarter then the sniper. If you know that he will pop up in the same spot all the time. Get around him and kill him up close. Never try to shoot a sniper with a Support or Assault...
 
I haven't encountered this yet, but I have to go and try it :P
Besides, if you don't want to spark a debate why post in the general forums...?
@ Alias: In beta you can shoot a sniper with an assault, it's way more accurate and lethal :)

If that is so, then they messed up the game. Nobody should be able to kill a sniper with assault on long distances. That just cannot happen.

I hope the change it when the real update comes out...
 
I can never get quick scoping down myself. I just have to rely on the one skill I have...dancing.
I can run around like a chicken with it's head cut off, and then make one shot while they're aiming for me.
I have seen quick-scope scripts, but it is doubtful that anyone that plays here uses them.
 
I don't see it as a cheat either, buy I accidently put yes >.< But yea, it's an advantage and it's not a cheat, if you're annoyed with it then learn how to do it and get "Payback"
 
sorry guys im with zerg on this one to me quick scoping is like being able to hop up ontop of the shed in field in donner its something that everyone can do that we all accept but something i have a feeling that when the developers made the game it was something they didnt realize they did and never addressed it otherwise why wouldnt they just lower the time to scoping all together? if we dont allow the shed tho easy to get up to and so on why allow quick scoping

thank you for seeing my point pipboy. Pipboy put it well guys. If valve wanted the scope to come up quicker they would have made it like that to begin with. Think about it. did valve say to themselves, "Lets make the scope open this fast this way, but if players sprint right before they open the scope it will open faster." I dont think so. Quick scoping is not a natural part of the game and is indeed an exploit. Also, you cant justify things just because of the way people play in CAL. CAL does not decide whats legal in the world of DoD and what is not legal. The people who run each server decides whats legal and whats not. In this case, Council should decide whether or not to allowe quickscoping in our servers, not CAL.
 
This argument is totally redundant. I won't even TRY to jump in here.

No one ever said CAL decides whats "legal" and what's not in the game. However, CAL rules is a very nice outline to follow, and they allow quickscoping, which most people agree with. Also, if council ever said "no quickscoping allowed" how would they possibly enforce this? You can't prove anyone's quickscoping. It's ridiculous to say "no quickscoping!" in the first place, I'm just wondering how they'd enforce this if they implemented this rule.

Quickscoping isn't considered an exploit, and never has been.. if it was considered one, CAL wouldn't allow it.
