It\u2019s hard to spend any time at all in Modern Warfare 2 or Warzone 2 without running into that dreaded sniper scope glint. while it\u2019s particularly terrifying for anyone caught in the open, it\u2019s enough to strike fear in a player\u2019s heart no matter where they run into it. While the white light does a good job of giving teammates an idea of where to shoot, the shining beacon reflecting off the game\u2019s biggest scopes are so big that it might actually be saving enemy marksmen more often than not. Modern Warfare 2 players call sniper scope glint \u201ca headache\u201d in multiplayer As noted on the game\u2019s subreddit, the different scopes have varying levels of glint. The light is smaller and less pronounced for the weaker magnifications but as the strength goes up so does the reflection. When compared to the types of glint in the series\u2019 past, many think that it\u2019s simply too much this time around. \u201cIn the beginning, it was a disadvantage to use a scope with glint, now it\u2019s an advantage,\u201d one player complained. A second person backed them up by joking that it\u2019s a \u201csniper scope with flashbang upgrade\u201d and that the Modern Warfare 2 devs \u201chave thought of everything.\u201d Others were not so quick to joke about the situation, calling these blinders \u201cso obstructive\u201d and \u201can absolute headache\u201d to deal with. A few people also acknowledged that the problem is the same over on Warzone 2, where the more open map size of Al-Mazrah makes it much more viable to run the bigger scopes. There\u2019s no telling if Infinity Ward (or Warzone 2\u2019s Raven Software) will take notice of these complaints, but for now, it\u2019s best to either run far away or aim in the center of the light and say a quick prayer when shooting back.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Modern Warfare 2 players slam devs over \u201cblinding\u201d sniper scope glint ActivisionModern Warfare 2\u2019s sniper glint feature is meant to reveal the position of enemy sharpshooters around the map but some players believe that it\u2019s so blinding it\u2019s actually helping the opposition.
