Now I know youv probably seen a whole lot of snipers running around with their rifles shooting at a tank or something stupid like that.
But those arnt the snipers that check these forums, the snipers here KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING.
Now if you call us noobs, dont make that judgement on our lack of strength and options in close combat. Make a good argument. Dont just put in "snipers are still noobs!!".

I'd like to see this guy in a kark server with me sometime... although i'd probably have a shit round and then he would be like ahahahaha nub!! and i would just like be FUCK OFF YOU FAT SHIT GET A FUCKING LIFE and then it would be full on gang warfare and shit... yeah maybe i went too far.
The round after that i got bronze the a 3.5 k/d ratio
You have to learn the rules of the game and then you have to play better than anyone else.
and u have a sexy sig
I dont think Sniper's effectiveness was ever questionned. What is questionned is what they bring for the team. Snipers are useful to take out campers, unsuspecting infantry or gunners and of course ennemy snipers. However their first priority is defence and when you have less flags than the ennemy they are the ones to go and take them since a sniper suck in close range.
Medics are the second best in offence however, after assault and its grenade launcher, and the reason why people love playing medic or/and having medics playing near them is the healing and revive. So if a pack of four guys go and take a control point and they are killed by a claymore (damn things) then the medic can come and revive them all no problem.
Medic or Sniper, both of them are great but they need each other to win. Sniper only or medic only is extremly difficult. But I will personally put my bet on medics.

Why medics are better than snipers
1. We have automatic weapons, one with a scope. Both good at medium/long range and short range shooting
Snipers however have only long range effective weapons, most are bolt action.
2. We can revive when we like and heal when we like. SNipers can lay TWO claymores...
3. Everybody on the team likes a good medic, as we save people and heal the team.
Snipers on the other hand are solitary, the ones that do play for the team are annoying and bunny hop, dolphin dive everywhere (apart from The ss bros as far as i know) Thus making snipers the most annoying assholes alive.
4. I am a medic
5. Ever soldier can call for a medic because they want to be one "i need a medic here"
do they ever say " i need a sniper " the answer is no because they are hardly ever needed
6. Medics dont usually fly around we are ground pounders. Snipers are always tking for jets with there M95
7. Medics FTW snipers In the bin

1. they are NOT good at long range, long range being considered over 200m. Sniper rifles are not only long range effective weapons you should have learnt that by playing with me and towelly by now beefy.pure_beef_69 wrote:

2. Yes, that is because you knobs started complaining.. if we complained about you having unlimited revives + heals they would limit them, we just put up with it you have to complain.
3. So no1 likes snipers eh? How many times have you got shot from 300 yards away and how many times do you reckon you have been saved by a sniper taking out another one? And medics and their stuck up bitches arent? You do more bunny hopping than a fucking rabbit on a trampoline ahhh run away someone shot at me..yay medi pack lets drop it in front of me!!
4. jeez, this reinforces the point "stuck up bitches"
5. Read no. 3
6. I think someone may have TK'd beefy thats not usually a sniper but just uses the m95 for its abilities. How many people use a m95 on a big map that jets would be on anyway?! No, most use the l96.
7. Yes, well done you can rhyme! Now lets not get TOO stuck up before the comp eh??
Why would u think he was in a tank? Those are horrible scores.
lol, true!
You know it's about time we put this to rest once and for all so welcome to my little addition to the snipers are not useless argument.
Sometimes you just have to do the best you can, and snipers can be the one to do the best in that situation:
But you can outscore the entire opposition being sniper, like here:
And here:
And here (lower player loads and a sniper can really shine):
How about Sharqi, outscoring everyone but the MEC chooper gunner, including those in tanks and the APC and everyone using automatic weapons... that impossible too? No, I don't think so:
Now some of you might doubt that this was mostly due to sniping (I went as medic in a pinch a couple of times) so here's a little evidence:
You can actually get the most kills (this is the game I got expert sniper combat in):
Anyone as good or better than I am (and EntertaineR_06 is better than I am) could do it too.

I presume this is your first account, the one with 18,000 points? You'll forgive me, if it is but you don't know enough to judge; it's a circular argument but there you go, since it's certainly possible.genius_man16 wrote:

thats alot of ss why are some names blurred anyway thats what im on aobut
umm... your first like 10 pictures showed nothing to reinforce that you were a sniper. and half of them were like barely above a 1 KD.. Gj you proved to us all.
and you are greater than us all?
yep....oh sorry wrong personEntertaineR_06 wrote:

who cares, we all play the same game on the same team. Snipers may be useless but posting about it is moronic

Bolt-action rifles are deadly at any range other than very short. The advantages of full-auto and burst fire is unquestioned by anyone with a brain; the AK-101 may be the best assault rifle in BF2.pure_beef_69 wrote:

snipers are effective.. But the thing with the sniper kit to be effective is to have a very good kdr.. as in 3.0 and above. Since your not really front lines, and you can defend yourself ie claymore. Your job is to not die yet still get kills giving your team a ticket advantage. I would rather have a sniper go 20-2 then 40-20. To myself global score doesnt really mean much. Snipers that can defend a position, or give cover fire and not be decteted or die will help the team.. Being a sniper is all about not dying not global score. knocking of 20 tickets at the cost of 2 is a great advantage. But to get 40 kills at the loss of 20 tickets, altough it did help was not as great of a showing. And in my opinion your screen shots does not really "prove" that snipers are effective as you want it to seem.
