Why are snipers not one hit kills at close range? It's realistic that they would kill and it's just a nuicance that they don't kill if you get jumped by some guy with an SMG.
Would making the sniper damage 72-70 with a shotgun range produce any other balance issues in the game?
It just seems like it makes sense :/

Would removing the sniper rifle's potential close range weakness and making the shotgun obsolete produce any other balance issues in the game? Gonna hav'ta say.............................................................................. Yes.

OWNED. Horrible idea. WWII rifles had enough range that a point blank shot to the leg wouldn't be that different from a 75 yard shot to the leg.

Hardly Den... What are the odds that a sniper bullet is going to hit anyway.
And shotguns are already obsolete, they were half decent in COD4 (still needed a buff) but in COD5 they flat out suck cos of the clip size and reload time.
And with the sniper double fire all over the place... they need at least a buff against people that shoot at them.

And with the sniper double fire all over the place... they need at least a buff against people that shoot at them. Switch to your other weapon.

Well, if they are to make sniper rifles a one-shot kill are close ranges, then they should probably make sniper rifles not have crosshairs. Who shoots sniper rifles from the hip in real life? Besides, that is what M40 + ACOG is for.

72-70 is probably ok for bolt rifles imo since it has uber slow rate of fire by nature (even if you swapshot it). For Semi's ability to perform close range spam, just keep it as 70-70.
