oh you people just iritate me...i put up my interpretation of a sniper guide and you just tare through it

im tired of arguing with what probably is a bunch of 12 year olds...learn the meaning of the term constructive criticism first before you rant along....bunch of kids

Well actually..
I'm 28 and fully understand the term constructive criticism. However, you do not seem to understand that your opinions on how to play are exactly that. They are not fact. That is all before we take into consideration your 'Expert Statistics'...

well the simple reason behind 8 rounds of Kubra, 6 rounds of Zatar, 7 rounds of Dalian and 10 rounds of Wake is that those are all vehicle maps...and everyone is out and about in vehicles or planes...you can wait till your old and grey to find a decent shot at anyone without being called a baseraper...

so its no use sniping there, dont you think?

also...finding a server that runs this kind of rotation isnt that easy....and i have to say, i never ever play with germans...for reasons that are out of place here

but i have to say...you people are a myserable bunch of sour gamers....all you can come up with is pickery and mocking
i cant see where i mocked anyone here...

Wake is a sniper heaven....  If you are actually any good. And ignore all of this "guide".

Oh, and finally.... Before you whinge about people not understanding words... Here's one for you..............   Spelling.

i agree with syndicat.

An effective guide will go through every style of sniping, not just one type. allthough there is alot wrong with the guide it is still a good effort.. people cant really say they are a great sniper unless they can be effective on a veriety of maps, regardless of weather theres vehicles

+1 for the not to helpfull guide

Syndicat makes excellent points +1 for him.

People try and make all snipers play the same, people play it differently, people play every kit differently.
Me, personally when sniping I like to stay close-ish to the action, but not on top of the enemy or a building, I find staying 20m+ behind my squad (full squad, some medics, support, other classes that don't get played much in IO) yields plenty of opportunities to gain kills and help my squad out.

What is wrong with the Germans? Now the Japanese . . .

Sorry man, but that was just a huge pile of shit.
Dont use grenades? Pistols are useless? Non-city maps are not good for sniping? Killing high ranked players demoralize others? There are a million plus one things in that guide that is just bullshit.
Maybe its you who REALLY need a sniper guide...

Not much is to be said for this weapon, since it is prettymuch of limited use. And i redicule if you ever need to use it. But since i want to be thorough, i will explain what its for. Baisicly, its for stealthy infiltration and extraction. What does that mean? If you want to get to your favourite sniping spot, and there are people in the way, you can pick them off without drawing too much attention to yourself.

The other use for it is in what i call "snipers ballet", where you bunnyhopp in circles with another sniper, trying to hit him in the cranium, but most of the time fail myserably.

Do not be fooled into thinking you can use it as a Sniper complementary weapon! At anything but "sexual intercorse" range, it is utterly useless.

Shows how little you know about the pistols.

I've outsniped heaps of people (over long long range) using the pistol. Outgunned G36E-ers and RPK-ers over long, medium and short range using the pistol. And the fact that the snipers pistol is silenced makes it even better.

Using the iron sights on the pistol (especially while prone), and shooting as fast as you can at a stationary target will result in every single bullet hitting (if you compensate for the slight rising of the gun on each shot). No matter how far away they are. Its an incredible weapon and have been accused of hacking on several occasions for using it.

You really should change the guide to say that if you got a body shot on your last round of the magazine you should always switch to the pistol and finish him off. Even if its not the last round in fact

Now i'm certainly not an expert at sniping, but i know that the pistol is very underrated.

Aside from that, nice guide .

Simple - bunny hop and dolphin dive untill I come close enough . Anyways , I do no fight snipers at ranges more then 100m because those long range snipers either do no exist or are very rare .
