I just found out that the M95 Barett sniper in BF2 is WAAAAAAAY more underpowered than I though!

I saw a program on Discovery on the top 10 best guns of all time, the M95 was #5, an guess what...

They use it to shoot down AIRPLANES and penetrate APCs from 2000m (6500 feet)!

If you shoot one bullet at the tracks of a tank it would become completely imobilized!


I seriously think EA just picked the wrong gun... it's just stupid the way it's used in the game...

It's a .50 cal sniper rifle. Upon hitting someone in-game they should fly 1/2 way across the map since there's no gore. You should be able to stop a Hummve dead in it's tracks, along with all the other mild-armor vehicles. A shot to the engine should knock a chopper out of the sky. Yet, it takes multiple hits to kill someone.

And because it takes multiple hits to kill someone this topic as to rehashed again and again?

I think not.

I understand that its 'underpowered' but if they change it so an m95 take out apc's and humvees it would totally unbalance the game. Should of had a non 50 cal be an unlock,
i like it thats just me though

that's the real problem - not that it's underpowered, but that they decided to go with it instead of picking a more conventional rifle to base the unlock on. btw, m24 pwns all.

Well, they wanted something that could penetrate cockpit glass I guess.

Agreed, I'm getting REAL tired of you people starting this topic over, and over, and over. Learn the search, or just use some common fucking sense and realize that any oneshot weapon would be whored out worse than the GL is, so DUH.
