Entertaining. I'd just recommend changing "quater" to "quarter."

ha, knew there'd be a spelling mistake in there somewhere, oh well, can't really change it as it's all saved on putfile and I can't be bothered to upload it again.
Thanks for the positive comment though

Excellent. I loved the part of the rapid kills boom boom boom. BUT.....as with all sniper vids, some kills looked a bit fishy...

all in all 10 / 10

Well as with most videos that anyone makes it doesn't tell the whole truth, a couple were second shot kills, would have shown the first hit but the editing didn't allow for it. Thanks to you as well

Kind of a habit from long range shooting, always aim at the top of the head, that way if bullet drop does come into play you still get the 1 hit kill.

Nice vid man...some of those shots were awesome...and you're right...don't underestimate the sniper up close...I can dominate with an SVD up close...can't wait to get the L96A1 though...only another 6000 points...at any rate nice work man...

Nice shots, the L96A1 is byfar the easiest sniper to snipe with, i dont have it yet lol. im pretty good with m95, i always use it over m24 cuz of glass penetration.

Your stats dont really reflect your uber sniping vid :S

Good watch though.

Pretty cool. Me likes.

You know I see lots and lots of sniper videos. Why not any spec ops carbine action? Would that be to boring? Or how come nobody makes any shock paddle kills video. I wouldn't mind seeing something different for a change. How about a video on Grenade launching post 1.22. Don't get me wrong I like seeing sniping videos, they're cool.

Firstly, yes the 2nd shot was my favourite as well, just looked quite cool
Second yea the sniper is an underestimated CQC kit, I mean it takes skill (that most of the time I don't have) but you can take out anyone in one shot if you do it right
Third, my stats awful for 1 reason, when I first started playing BF2 I played sniper (the camping type) got owned, and coz my old PC was shit, I had my view distance set to like 50%, bit of a no no.

Thanks to all of you as well

I dunno about cocky? I was going more for a funny angle

But yea the L9 was overdone, next video will have more M95 action, maybe even 100% if I get round to it. I just figured if you can have the best use it.

I kinda figured that he was going for the "funny angle" more than the "cocky," as well. The L96 is a fine weapon, IMO, but I agree that it'd be interesting to see more angles to the sniper kit also. Maybe a bit of M95 cockpit assassination, or SVD squad hunting would be entertaining. Personally, I'm also a fan of those shots that save a teammate, and they don't even realize it!

Any jackass can make himself appear better than he actually is with fraps. He only recorded the few lucky shots and kills he has gotten on his account. The stats do not lie:

Just another mediocre sniper recording a handful of lucky kills over a long period of time.

You are just one of the many tools in this thread fooled by clever usage of fraps.

I'd like to see the FULL video, not just a bunch of 5 second clips where he gets a finishing shot. But noone makes videos showing them getting owned.

Hmm, I do agree slightly, but you can't say that about my video because mine was all done in ONE round, I see myself as a little above mediocre

In order for me to take any video seriously you must at least show an un-interrupted video, and for fucks sake, have a kill to death ratio of at least 1:1 with the weapon you're using!!! All of his shots were just the killing shots. Judging by his stats, he probably spent 5 minutes spraying and missing the person and then finally fraps'd the killing shot (notice how a shot to the arm kills someone). You people are sheep for buying into such bullshit so easily.
