there different kind of sniper is this game, some sniper like to defend a flag, others camp an enemy flag and kill all the enemies that respawn, some others like to be in the middle of the action just a couple of meters from the enemy, other just go far away and kill from a safe distance and the ones who like to give fire support to their squad teammates, if you have a particular way to play as sniper you can add it.

my FAVORITE way to play as sniper is being next to the HOT spots just around 100 mts or even closer, i like to do this because my enemies get really piss when they see me before i kill them, and they always comeback for some more (even get the whole arty just for me)
but sometimes i like to go from place to place all stealthy and kill a couple of guys and then disapear again

I try to be a useful sniper, both defending an important flag from a hidden vantage point, giving long-range support to ground troops attacking another flag, and being a scout.
I kept getting my own personal artillery attack last night on Wake Island...I hid myself pretty well in the grassy hills next to Beach and kept killing the guys spawning at the South Base. I probably had about a 6-8:1 k/d ratio until the commander finally nailed me.

My favorite on special forces on warlord.....get on a roof with a pkm near the "parachute dropzone spawn" and just pick off the paratroopers as they float helplessly to earth.

most of my arty strike i have recieve had been on oman

im the type of sniper who moves around alot and helps my team.e.g on mashturr il go up the ladders near the backyard and protest the flag at the backyard,while i do this i pick off targets in the mosque until my team caps the flag,then il parachute down and head towards the hotel .

I'm mainly Assault, but sometimes I'll wip out the good ol sniper rifle.

I like to do long-range/mid range sniping, you know, squad support.

I am also the sneaky bastard noob who SOMEHOW got onto your carrier without being noticed and popped you between the eyes when you were just about to take off in your F-35b..... MUWAHAHAHAHAHA!!

I usually don't like sniping spawn points, I view that kind of behaviour as unskilled noobery of the highest order.

I typically prefer long to medium range counter-sniping, aka sniper hunting as a sniper. I also enjoy shooting pilots out of helicopters midflight with the M95 (something which i'm doing with increased frequency I proudly add). At the moment i'm trying to get used to using the L96, i'd gotten used to the M95 especially with max range (just at the very edge of the draw distance) sniping and hitting moving targets at range too. Before with the M95 I could usually hit somebody running but with the L96 i'm having to get used to that now.

That said, I will happily act as a spotter for my side if they're trying to capture a flag. Focusing on telling them where enemy troops are rather than trying to kill them, although if a target makes itself appealing I will take it.

I'm a support/spotter sniper. I am usually off on some building, hill or crane sniping the enemies that get close to my teammates while also reporting all the enemies I see to help the team kick ass. But if an enemy starts sniping, I find him and snipe him and if I can't find him, I'll wander around the map with an assualt rifle and put some holes in him .

I go over at an enemy flag, and camp out there. I don't need your shit and crying on "OMG U NOOBY PANTS JOO CAMPAR LOL" It's a legit way of getting kills, is it not? And I take out the enemies on the rooftops caming OUR flags.

Well, I don't snipe much. But if I do, I start sniping at long range. But then I get the rambo feeling. Like somehow I need to get closer to my enemies. So From long range, I end up to mid-range. If I survive it gets short-range with grenade spamming and claymores. And if I survive that I get the kit from the guy I killed and the sniper party is over

I usually move with the squad, pretty much using the rest of the team to draw out and occupy the enemy and then dealing out a head shot. On certain maps though, Ill go out on my own as an intimidation factor, usually behind enemy lines, acting as the bird dog and flushing out covered targets.

I go for the headshots even if they are moving I get more kill w/ sniper than I used to do with other kits
