Now you're speaking my language! Especially the high caliber rounds part. I could deal with that idea, but I'd rather not see the descope happen period. I'm not even trying to defend snipers with that point, it's a matter of input/output and feedback. If I press and hold a button, I really don't want a game mechanic to rip that away. Especially in a game that has formed muscle memory habits in users. It's a little bit of a stretch, but imagine a bird hitting the cockpit of a plane and suddenly the engines shut off, forcing you to throttle up again, except there's 4 more birds coming in quick succession. That is much worse than what happened to shotguns in my opinion. I'm a-okay with flinch forcing aim down, because I absolutely agree that it's broken the way it is now. What if the body shots forced aim down, and crits forced aim upwards and more violently?
