Many players, however, felt the removal of flinch made snipers rifles overpowered – a sniper could take a couple of hits and still land a one-shot kill on an attacker thanks to Black Ops Cold War's longer TTK. The feature has been missing from Black Ops Cold War since launch (it was present in past Call of Duty games), because the developer thought it would help balance snipers in the multiplayer shooter.
