Treyarch deliberately buffed sniper rifles for the alpha in order to evaluate their performance, and has already promised a nerf for the upcoming beta. It turns out the current sniper rifle experience in the alpha is not what we should expect from the launch game. The video below, from Call of Duty YouTuber Drift0r, gives you an idea of how snipers work in Black Ops Cold War: The ADS on snipers is so quick - near instant in some cases - that snipers are outperforming assault rifles even at ranges ARs should dominate. They're super powerful, as you'd expect, but also have an extremely quick aim down sights (ADS) speed - much faster than the kind of sniper rifle ADS speed we're used to from recent games in the series. I spent most of yesterday evening playing the alpha, getting a feel for the multiplayer portion of the game, its weapons and potential loadouts, and it quickly became apparent that snipers were the go-to weapon. If you, like me, have been playing the Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War alpha on PlayStation 4 this weekend, you may have noticed sniper rifles are pretty handy.
