Well there is something named: Freedom of speech.
Which in terms gives me the rights to say my opinion about a certain thing or person and nobody can do something about it. Just as you gave your opinion on me saying that ''you shouldn't buy BF2142'' and thats your right. But you should not start saying ''shut up'' Unless you give me 50 dollars and then you won't hear me saying about BF2142
If you give me $300 ill give you $50

Sniper tip: aim for a chest and with a sway you'll hit head. I know there are upgrades but has anyone remember any rifles are moving when you're in prone position?

The main problem with the sniper is the combination of a bad excuse for a crosshair, the bob and the addition of a slight bullet travel/drop. I actually thing it would be alright if both rifles had a decent crosshair (you know, an actually crosshair rather than the existing pointy line). With the current crosshair it's nigh on impossible to get a headshot at range.

I can't say I noticed the bob getting any weaker/less when proned or crouched. Also, what sort of sniper would want to aim for the chest, a two shot kill shot... a sniper in DICE world.

Nope, they are an unlock.

Sniping feels so fucked up in the demo but maybe it will be better with the unlocks and upgrades.
If the unlocks are like the beta then you're going to be disappointed.

I realy like sniping in 2142, now you have to have some level of skill to get some decent kills.
I found it took less skill, I was just aiming for the chest/anywhere on the body for a two shot kill... not much skill needed there.

If a slight sway in your shot angers you, just wait until BF2142 patch 1.81 comes out and they still dont have the game running right, that'lll piss ya off even more!

I can almost garentee they wont do anything about the sway apart from maybe make it less of an issue when proned/crouch. Also, it's not exactly a sway, it's just a linear bob which never deviated from a strict up and down motion.

(Maybe that's what you were getting at anyway...)

Of course they won't do anything about it. It's fine the way it is. The only thing they may change, like you said, is less sway in crouch/prone. Other than that it's fine.

The "crosshairs" could do with a change too but that wont happen.

So u can defuse my claymore V2.0s in BF2142 full version or what? oh crap n0000000000000..... 

"The APM (Anti Personal Mine) is a directional fragmentation mine generating a fan-shaped explosion pattern. The mine is highly lethal to infantry who approach its front at speed, though it can be defused or circumvented by careful soldiers."

Personally, I love sniping in 2142. Mainly because I have played games with the more realistic sight-sway and know how to deal with it. The rifles are nice, too! Honestly, though. Whenever I go up against one of you people who just sits there and whines about how hard it is to snipe, you die. Funny stuff. Oh, and, just so you know, if you think sniping is hard, there is an unlock to help, and *GASP* a whole THREE other classes.

you all must be the retardeds.

Ever fire at a small target at 500+ yards in real life? That makes 2142 look like a cakewalk.

*The snipers arent bolt action, they have to de-heat themselves after each shot.

I dont see why you hate the sniper rifles, I never get head bob, and when I do its nothing I can't counter. I love the new sniper rifles, no unscoping every shot, extremely accurate and powerful.  BUT the whole, offset to this is that, vehicles GALORE, in BF2, thered be a tank, APC, 2 jets, 2 transport copters, except now its 6 tanks per team, 6 apcs, 6 scout cars, 2 walkers etc etc, everyone is either in a vehicle, or dead.

The Sniper rifles of 2142:
They're shit. Sniping is not as fun as it was in BF2, but hey, at least people will stop abusing us saying that "Oh Em Gee, Sniping is for n00bs"
Once unlocks come about you get some nifty tools for the Sniper, such as the zoom on the scope, (when you're scoped in you use the mouse wheel to zoom in and out,) and the stabiliser which isn't a bad toy, and the Claymores are handy too, as is active camo when moving to or from a position, (or moving behind someone to knife 'em.)
The Sniper Rifle unlock hopefully will be improved rom the Beta and Alpha tests, but remember, it has a handy function where you can destroy Mines, Det packs and Claymores by shooting them with the rifle.

The rifles arn't bolt action, nor are they semi-auto, they have a mechanism inside which empties the spent shell and puts in a new one. It basicly does the work of moving a manual bolt, but you can remain zoomed in. Personally I find it annoying as I never know when I can fire again, but I'm sure I'll get used to it.

If there's anything else you want to know, just ask, 'cause I can reveal the secrets of the Alpha test now that the demo is out.

Seeing as how the infantry maps are the most popular in BF2, you can be certain that we'll see some sort of equivalent in 2142. Hopefully.

I wish they would keep the upgraded sniper rifle the same as in Beta 1. I loved the no-scope zoom in...

The Freedom of Speech is Limited:  In other words no you can't say anything you want and no one can do anything about it.  To let you know here is a list of things it doesn't protect:

1. Obscenity
2. Pornography
3. Libel and Slander
4. Fighting Words
5. Clear and Present Danger (Shooting "FIRE" in a crowded theater when there is none)


I took me awhile to get use to the sniping 2142, but I'm slowly getting the hang of things.  I like it a lot more than in previous games where it was point and shoot kind of.  I still loved it but it was that great.  Mainly noticing, that I have to stay calm when firing.  Can't think I'm using a SVD.

actually I believe the guys in the sniper squad of my platoon are taught to aim at the chest, it's an increased probability of a hit and with the .50 cal or the 7.62 from the m40 it's pretty much going to suck to be the target.

You think by this time they'd be able to fix the guns and make it so they wouldn't be bolt action or they'd have thermal immaging or could zoom farther, you know kinda like the guns we have today.
