Just to know about sniper

[hotfranc]

Hi everyone,

I just want to know who are the snipers and where do you play because i get bored having no spotter or sniper.I am playing on CIA and TG. I want to know if you like to operate in sniper/spotter team because every time i create a snip/spot squad a noob come, take a marksman and go away with it or another sniper come in.

Thanks

Sorry for my english

I imagine most snipers work within an infantry squad? well my squad sniper does... Am I right in thinking you can only have one sniper & spotter per 6 man squad?

[Cheditor]

There is no spotter class, people just use a SL or medic or something. Sniper is only requestable once per squad, and it can be requested by 2 or more people with a total of 2 snipers.
@OP most snipers i know work with friends, they either dont like or trust other people or they just want to have fun with their friends.

IMO, snipers are for kids, that's why I don't take them... If you're not a kid, remember, every time you pick a sniper kit, you made a kid cry.

Very very rare, situation comes when having a good sniper (in a different squad) would be useful, but of course, it's not there...
Like, if you're calling for a CAS attack on FoB with AA placement manned - if you have a good sniper to headshoot that guy just before the hydra-huey moves in, that's something a sniper can do great... thou, probably your AR can do it just the same...
Or, if an APC filled with inf is making a move over open ground, one sniper shot on a HAT can save the day... thou, your AR can probably do it...

Rounds when I felt victory/defeat was influenced by a sniper are... well I remember ONE round on Ejod... hm... that's about it... I think...

Snipers never make a game worse, they can just be useless if they are not very good. My team sniper actually finds sniping really boring but I make him do it anyway because he is very good at it... I think he gets jealious because all he hears over comms is me and my squad in firefights while he is tasked with sitting on a high rise taking out enemies out across the water at the docks(beirut) as they spawn on an FB.

I am not a kid...
Althought I like sniping on certain maps (They are currently removed)

My ingame name is =[BF]= Rudy_PR so you might find me sometimes either flying or sniping or tank gunning...
Anyway I do play on TG sometimes althought I have pretty high ping of 220 there! But still, I like the teamwork there!

How are snipers for kids....
To be a sniper and do it propper you need to know what your doing and have comman sense.
pfff

Snipers are hardly for kids if used properly can be a great addition to squad/team.

I do take the Sniper/Recon role from time to time, mostly on Insurgency maps (whore out and rape Caches). Indeed, it does take skill and the minute that child can't make the shot, cause hes standing and believes no-scoping is possible at 500 meters, he'll rage. Normally, I will snipe with a willing, and skilled partner that I know, and we both get Sniper kits. (Second guy goes into another squad and asks nicely if he/she can take a sniper kit.) Then we both end up sniping and spotting for each other.

Seriously, snipers aren't for kids, Especially in PR as they Require patience and maturity to be used effectively.
And Kids lack for all the things listed above.
