User blog:N7/Quickscoping isn't in Black Ops. (Plus some other MP info)

Treyarch has now confirmed that players will not be able to quickscope in the final version of the game.

Some footage of a player quickscoping was taken from the closed beta of the game, but during a Q&A session on Twitter, Treyarch’s community manger Josh Olin answered some direct questions about whether or not quickscoping will be included in the game.

When simply asked if quickscoping will be possible in Black Ops, Olin replied
 * "No. Quickscoping is a cheap way to play. We’re specifically going to gimp Quickscoping, sorry. Play straight-up!”

A few other users asked if he was ‘joking’ about the above comment, he later replied


 * ”Nope. Quickscoping is way more annoying to a way larger group of people than the quickscoping community who loves to do it. #cheap”.

He later added that players will now need to wait a brief moment until the sniper sight is centered before they take a shot, and confirmed that no sniper rifles in the game are useful for quickscoping.

So what do you think? Is this a good or bad idea by Treyarch?
