Snipers:Real use

[Arnoldio]

Sniper is really pointless... it should be 1 shot 1 unrevivable kill, so you actually do something, right now its pointless, you can do recon with SL kit, or any other kit wich has binoculars...

Then put a second bullet in him...there is nothing that can t be solved by the proper amount of lead.

Im never playing as sniper but i rather have m249 and put heavy fire on his head than preform a fail shot at enemy SL plus he has a medic 1m away so tis a waste of bullet. If you shoot again from same location, the next second you're eating lead...

Being under sniper fire has a HUGE psychological effect on a squad, one of them has just gone down, the medic doesn't really want to move out of cover in case he get's hit, they shouldn't know where you are. That squad isn't moving for a while.

Oh yeah - if the medic can revive the guy you shot - YOU CAN SHOOT THE MEDIC. Simples.

exactly! Or better, shoot the medic first! Kill the medic than the officer, without them the squad is useless. Or hold your fire and take better targets like .50 gunners or people building a FOB .

Well , i hate when i wait 4-5 seconds and then shoot and miss to a standing still target , i dont know how is that posible , and i think wating few second while Prone is usless , since when your prone your gun dosent more or nothing . Maby im not right but if your got your rifle steady while prone theres no point to waste another 4 seconds waiting . Alot of stuff can go wrong in 4 seconds . But As i said , maby im wrong.

i like it only when i kill the enemy sniper and take his kit its more sweet than ever to use it , sniper is more elegant more finesse

Snipers are useless. A lot of times, you would have to shoot someone twice to kill them. Very CoD4ish. Especially since headshots don't kill, you would have to constantly shoot them down, by which point, they would have revived and move out or found out your position and started mowing you down.

If you want to shoot people from long range, the SAW is a much more attractive choice of weaponry to piss people off or if you want to lase, the officer kit is your friend. I personally use the sniper kit to fool around or when I am bored.

By anti-material, do you mean glass? I shot a guy through the logi truck glass window about 600 meters away once.

On Kashan, the difference between a sniper and an officer is that sniper can eliminate threads to his own CAS. 99% of the time, I am on the recieving end mostly as a medic and believe me, a good sniper is not useless. Infantry often has to call some sort of support to in order to eliminate him.

Well SAW is my Favorite Weapon definetly better then sniper , it can kill enemy fast and pin them down . But if you like camping , slow action, then sniper suits you
