Sniper VS Scoped MG

NyteMyre · 06-21-2009, 02:47 PM

Ah few times now when I got my hands on a sniper, I seem to get raped by the new Scoped MG's, who shoot far more accurate then me.

I'm not someone who snipes very often, but I know the drill how to hit someone, but because of the suppression effect, MG's are able to keep me pinned down and even kill me with far more ease then I can kill them.

Anyone else noticed this?

I have the same.

I think that new AR are good, but giving to them 4x scoup was bad idea(now you dont need marksman in your SQ).

You shold give as a spawnable kit AR without scoup. And mabey AR with scoup but you must request it.

well depending on the combat ranges your talking about here, sounds like lmgs are performing exactly as they should, laying down massive suppressive fire which makes the enemy keep their heads down.

That being said, i do personally believe snipers and other 'ranged' rifles in pr are nerfed a bit much and not really as effective over great (and i mean great) distances as they should be...but thats getting a bit off topic

One huge advantage that the sniper has over the AR is that you can be sneaky with it. When the AR opens up, you -will- know where it is

you people are never satisfied. everyone was begging for scopes on the AR kits in the earlier versions. now that they are there, everyones complaining about them.

It's simple. Get more distance. You shouldn't be within x4 scope range when you are using a sniper. Keep your distance and sneak around, only taking kills that you are confident you can make and still stay hidden.

Keep in mind that a SAW and the other LMG's does give away your position very easy. but the Marksman and sniper doesn't make so much noise as the AR.

AR = Making the enemy **** themselves

Marksman/Sniper = Killing the enemy, without themselves know where it's coming from

Hehheh, I had few great rounds yestersday on Al Basrah with the scoped enfield.
I took out few squads, first I shot the Saw gunners who were standing still trying to cover the rest of their squad, then the medic came up and shot him right after. Then took out the rest of the squad members.

Now this is why I love this mod so much.

And your point is....?

i believe his point is that a sniper still holds its own and is more than effective in it role.
