Have you tried Blops2 yet? Not sure if I was just getting lucky, but it actually seems easier to quick scope and no scope . But again, it might have just been luck

This exploit has ruined the game. It is funny that IW has always succumbed to fan's complaints and nerfed every weapon but will never fix the exploit that the sniper ladies enjoy.

The only reason I can come up with is marketshare........IW wants the ladies who like to quickscope. When you find yourself in a lobby with alot of prestige level 20's...take notice now how many of them are quickscopers......the majority.

I love the game....but it is so disappointing that this has become IW's decision...

If it's so cheap why aren't those garbage MOAB spawn trapping campers using it huh? Also I hate to break it to I took aim assist completely off on Black Ops including my aim assist on my xbox live account and I was able to quickscope better lol so yea jokes on you.

If they remove it from snipers then I want it removed from the game seriously it's like saying aiming the the sight and instantly shooting with an assault rifle or smg is an exploit of aim assist. Its a simple trick with the physics stop crying seriously lag compensation is a way bigger issue. Oh here is a saying you campers use all the time since it's in the game use it. Stop complaining already I get killed by lag compensation and spawn campers way more then I do quickscopers I always own them. Also if it's an exploit of aim assist why don't you use it and show proof of you exploiting aim assist.

the reason Aim assist should be removed from snipers is easy, its been abused. Plain and simple, it was meant to help those poor of aim but douche bags with youtube accounts made it popular to exploit it. I will never buy another IW game again if they incorporate sh*t like this. IW has officially ruined the Modern Warfare series for me. MW is hacked to death, MW2 is over run quickscoper and commando users, and MW3 is infested with stalkered up, quickscopin' d bags. I wont tolerate it so, when Nov 14th rolls around....... it's off to Gamestop to trade in these monuments to greed and gamer stupidity.

And as a side note people, the petition is for removal of aim assist on sniper rifles. People keep mentioning AR's and he's not talking about that. The developers can remove it just on snipers if they want but as some have already said they won't.

And also, you turn aim assist off on your assault rifle and you will also have a hard time killing your opponent. It goes both ways. Aim assist is there for a reason. It is hard to be accurate with thumb sticks, which is why on many PC shooters, there is no aim assist since they use a mouse.

Lol, it is a game, you want realistic? Go join the army. When you watch a killcam and it appears that the shot wasnt on you, keep in mind that you are playing online. In a killcam it does not show what actually happens, and i can assure you, that shot was on you. Quickscoping is something that takes lots of practice, and the players that quickscope you are (most likely) usually lucky to hit you, very few players can produce high scores through sniping, and when you see a player who does, they have practiced for a LONG time. I myslef have been quickscoping since CoD4, and im very good at, but i still have a hard time getting amaing scores every game like players who constantly use regular guns. So next time you complain about being quickscoped, look at that players score/k.d. You will never be able to stop quickscoping. And since i know that no matter what they do to prevent "quickscoping" that i will still be an amazing sniper, ill sign your pointless petition.

Signed Qsing is cheap and should have never made final release of this game.

@TIvincent4 The aim assist is mechanic that auto aims for you. Best way to see it is lay prone and when an enemy comes close to your sights you will see your gun auto adjust onto the enemy.

Lol @ the people who want QS removed because it's unrealistic.

You're playing the wrong game if you want that. Go play Battlefield.

Can someone please explain to me exactly what "aim assist" is, I am playing on PS3 and I see nothing in the options to set aim assist on or off????

For me the bottom line is I don't mind getting killed by anyone who is better than me, more skilled then me, etc but with QS in MW3 just like some of the OP guns this isn't happening. I'm not against quickscoping but I want it to be a skill, not an easy ride.

It's a joke. I played a match last night and the entire opposition was running around QSing.

I found myself open mouthed watching the killcams.

Seriously - a OHK anywhere, other than a foot, with an assist. Are you kidding me?

Black ops had snipers right.

I, like many others, have Elite for a year and it's not going to last that long unless something is done about this. But Treyarch's after sale support is so much better than IW's that I'm not holding my breath (a bit like 99% of the snipers in MW3 obviously.)

Quick scoping is extremely easy in this game, I have nvr quickscoped before but I decided try it yday and It was so easy >.> They really should tone that down little.

Also type 95 is annoying too

You're right. This is a simulation game, not real life.

But the overwhelming majority of players enjoy the fact that they can RELATE to most everything in the game. For example, a portable auto-turret that magically knows the difference between a good guy and a bad guy isn't REALISTIC but knowing there are auto-turret style canons on ships, people can relate to a sentry gun.

I'd ask if you can see the difference, but even if you could, you'd say it doesn't matter.

Up until now I have kind of put up with quick scopers in all forms of C.O.D I will just leave that lobby and find another, one that hasn't got any q.scopers, but, it has become increasingly hard to do so.the last two times I have been killed in MW3 by a quick scoper have been whilst they have been RUNNING, then came accross me from a distance no greater than aprox. 50 metres, quick scoped and I'm dead, nowthen, on the killcam, it appeared that the shot had missed me, I can't explain that, and I don't want to go down the road of guesses or assumptions.

What I do want, is for these guys to at least stop quick scoping in close combat, it is totally unrealistic, and I think that it is those situations that are perhaps making guys a little more angry each time, I mean, try it in real life, you cannot possibly run around, pick up that sniper rifle, aim (properly, in the right spot) on a moving object, in those battle environments, i.e 50 metres away and both of you running, it's just not possible.

The sniper rifle was invented for, and is used for, middle to long distance "Sniping" not quick scoping like it was an UMP .45 or an M16
