I don't like the "zoom level" option

Games Halo Infinite

Really wish there was a way to set zooming to how it was in older halo games.

sniper rifle:

1 click = 1 zoom
2 click = 2 zoom
3 click = out of zoom

1 click hold + release = 1 zoom (then upon release) subtract 1 zoom
for example
2 click hold + release = 2 zoom (then upon release) subtract 1 zoom to take you into the 1 zoom mode

This made all of these functions possible with the click and or click hold of a single button/key. Now with zoom and zoom level being 2 different options, I have to change up my keyboard/mouse layout completely. The default zoom level option is middle mouse button, but I use that to throw grenades and all of the other buttons on my mouse are already per-occupied.

Edit:

A fix to this would be to simply allow users to choose how they want to zoom in. You can, for example, have the current setup be designated as “Zoom Option A” and then give us a “Zoom Option B” that mimics the old system of zooming in. Everyone wins.

I agree. I don’t like it being 2 different options. I play on console and have all my other buttons preset. I can’t change zoom level…

I don’t understand why it’s this way. I’m used to always picking up a zooming weapon and holding the zoom button so that I can release it to turn off zoom. I simply don’t enjoy having to always click multiple times. As of now I don’t even have “zoom levels” attached to any key, so I can’t even double zoom with a sniper.

I get that some people might like this set-up, but it would be a really nice quality of life change to give users multiple options for this feature.

this needs to be added for sure. I usually like toggle zoom, but having the option to hold zoom, without having to go to the pause menu to change it is really nice for certain situations. it’s a little puzzling this control setup didn’t make it into infinite considering it was in MCC.

My same thought. It was included back in the original games as well. Now I don’t know how the sniping is in H5 since I haven’t played it, but with MCC being the most recent… I guess actively updated Halo release, I don’t see how they skipped taking that into consideration.
In this instance, they went out of their way to not only have a zoom button, but to introduce a zoom level button. That, plus the intro of marking locations and ai scan, 343 is bringing a lot more key bindings than any other halo game.

I’m using keyboard/mouse. Is it still like that when using a controller (holding the zoom and then releasing it to zoom out)
