IDK if it’s an issue or not but was there a reason for it acting this way?
Hides your position because there’s no trail on the unscoped shot

If you’re hip firing you’re probably under attack by someone fast and near you though right?
That’s what it does, but not why.

Just an extra element of choice for Ana, I suppose. Choose to trade instant hit for visible trail and lower movement speed, or not.
Also making her unscoped weapon do McCree damage but with no falloff would be pretty ridiculous without the projectile part.
Why use scope if hip fire is hitscan?
It’s just a tradeoff. You really have 3 options:
No-Scope. Mobility and Fire Rate but less consistent at a longer range.
Hard-Scope. Less mobility, but a good Fire Rate and long range consistency.
Quick-Scope. Good mobility and long range consistency, but a slower Fire Rate.

Zoomed view right?
I agree that it’s simply to give the Ana player more options.

That isn’t at all worth the slow.

What if the projectile were a bit faster than now though? It feels kind of slow. It’s 10 m/s slower than Hanzo’s arrows right now.
Ana’s projectiles are some of the fastest in the game. I believe they’re tied for first with Hanzo’s Arrows (I’ll double-check tho).
Correction: Ana’s projectiles are 90m/s, Hanzo’s max arrow speed is 100m/s.

Hip fire is projectile. Scoped in is hitscan.

Hanzo’s are 100 m/s hers are 90 m/s
Yep. They were the same before Hanzo 2.0.
Just to make more sense of this, Pharah’s Rockets travel at 35m/s, Helix goes at 50m/s and Sleep Dart is 60m/s.
90m/s is still the second fastest in the game.
Read the OP’s suggestion.
his were 85 before though?
It’s to artificially give value to her scope, so that we all can pretend Ana is a sniper somehow.

Ah, so hers were the fastest in the game before. My bad.
Regardless, her darts don’t need a speed increase.
If it was hitscan, there would be no point of having her scope.

Ana would be overpowered if they were hitscan. She’d be incredibly deadly at midrange, easily stronger than S76 or McCree.
