ADS Focus Zoom

Does anyone know why the focus zoom feature from RO2/RS1 was removed? I really liked that feature since it allowed me to be effective in close quarters by setting IronSightZoomScale=0, and having the ability to still engage long distance targets by using the focus feature.

I did some testing and it seems that the feature is only available on deployed light machine guns (M60, RPD), and mounted heavy machine guns (Huey M60, DShK). Furthermore, the focus zoom feature is still possible when not aiming down the sights of your weapon.

Could the developers please re-implement a focus zoom system for all weapons in RS2? If its removal was due to a gameplay consideration, at least add an option to have a manual focus zoom that only zooms as much as IronSightZoomScale=1. This would be a really accommodating feature for RO2/RS1 veterans, as well as those coming in from other FPS games. Squad, Insurgency, Day of Infamy, ARMA 3, and PLAYERUNKNOWN’S BATTLEGROUNDS all have the same focus zoom feature.
