    Bandit and Jager losing ACOGs?

    Not sure if my friend is just an idiot and read this somewhere random and maybe its totally false. However if this is true ouch. Not so much ouch to bandit because I at least love his iron sights but Jager losing the ACOG (Which doesn't even make sense as he's using an AR just like all the attackers)... either way

    Opinions?
    Thoughts?


    Personally I feel like this isn't going to change much other than Jager/Ash mains will become OtherOP/Ash mains...

    All the attackers have ACOGs on their primary weapons, so all defenders should have ACOGs for their primary weapons. I hate not having an ACOG on my weapon it makes me feel blind at mid range, and makes going for heashots so much easier. Balance the game some other way Ubisoft, don't you dare take the ACOG away from my Jager and Bandito.

    Its controversial for sure and will shake up the meta quite a bit. I guess im on the fence here, i can see where they're coming from in terms of balancing but like Sparky said if all the attackers have acogs then why cant the defenders?

    If it was a 4x sight like the real ACOG I could understand but it's only a 2.5x zoom so all the SMGs should be able to have it.

    All defenders should have ACOG, removing ACOG from ops is just a lazy way to try and balance their ranged capability. Recoil, damage and spread are much better ways to balance weapons. Look at the C8 that has been balanced so as it is bad at range with the ACOG, removing the ACOG from Bandit and Jager would be the wrong call.

    Most people defending a 70 square foot room aren't going to get a ranged sight on their weapons....

    It is a 2.5x sight.............. Nothing ranged about that, also it's a video game. In Battlefield 4 you can put a 3x scope on an M1911A1. This is clearly just a lazy attempt at balance and meta change, I don't think it will do much. People will just lower their FOV and use HOLO on Jager and Bandit.

    I'm all for this. The fatties in the room should have acogs to hold long angles in the objective, and make up for their lack of speed. Having an acog and super speed was op, not to mention they both have great gadgets and barbwire.
    We might finally see all batteries and ADS's placed down for a change.
