the AWP, Scout and the other snipers that I know in the original Counter Strike can zoom very far.
In cs2d is actually only possible to see players near, can on the next version of CS2D be possible to get away to see from your location?
As for example, if I zoom once I can see half a screen away by only "touching" the crosshair pointer on top of the screen and leave a little.
And when I zoom twice I can see 1,5 screens away by the same method.
When I zoom the third time (to zoom out) the sight back to normal.
It's a good idea, right?
I edited now, let's see what people think about it now.

I was gonna post a forum about this but i saw this one first. My idea is if you right click, it has a scope thing that limits the sight and the range would be like the one from Gang Garrison, where the scope follows the mouse for a determined range but still give sniper an edge on how far they can see. This would dramatically increase the realism and importance of snipers. If you don't know what I'm saying, play Gang Garrison and use the sniper class. @K-tronic We could put FOG OF WAR! Or prohibit a sniper from seeing through walls.

1. DC doesn't accept any suggestions at the moment! It has been said gazillions of times...
2. The version will be 0.1.1.8 not "1.0.0.8".

ok if DC doesn't accept any suggestions at the moment this will come on version 0.1.1.9

this has been suggested (and declined) several times already. it's an obvious thing which comes to really EVERBODY's mind when thinking about ways to change the sniper zooming.

most people only think about how cool it would if they would be the one with this zoom/scroll feature. they don't consider the (truly crappy) situation that they are shot by an invisible force - namely a guy who snipers with zoom and can see them before they can see him!

it would be very bad, very unfair, very imbalanced if enemies would be able to see you without you being able to see them. maximum frustration. horribly lame gameplay. extremely annoying sniper rifle lamers. it would be a reason to leave the server and to stop playing this game.

so as you see: no, it's very far away from being a good or witty idea!

moreover your poll is not fair. there is no "no" as an option?!

then can I make a better and a little realistic suggestion?
how about instead of a scope like that the sniper could make a little viewpoint in which everything could be seen but outside it would be black
I think a picture describes it best

As you can see that my image editing skill sucks but notice the secondary point too(yes the sucking part was main)
you see I am carrying a scout so my suggestion means that when I snipe to full the screen goes like this and I can see things in front of me but not sides and nor back

Well, if player zoom, he cannot will see her own position and he can be fired too. and a cool thing (off-topicing (?)) is add more damage to the weapons like the deagle 'cause on 3D CS with 3 shots at enemies u can kill them.
hummmm I'm seeing that someone who will curse me ...
