You inspired me atiim to use the tac sniper and do a bit of close support sniping, I'm not a 'proper' dedicated sniper, I use the charged with 3 damage mods. I'll be using the ishukone tac later, should be fun.
I use the duvolle tac for cqc sniping and its a total beast.
Most snipers are plain sht mate and we don't even have bullet drop lol.

More practice will sort that out, then you'll laugh at yourself when you get used to it and realise that sniping in dust is more noobish and easy than halo.

And I refuse to believe that practice won't fix it for you, I'm sorry but you do not seem like an invalid to me at all.

GREAT snipers are so useful it's not even funny. They can hold an objective from 400m away, eliminate HVT's and injure or flat out STOP squads from moving in the open. They create paranoia and discord on the battlefield, as you can effectively shut down areas of the map for fear of getting pinged in the open.
However, a vast majority of snipers in this game a CRAP. They give all the rest a bad name.
That is the problem with snipers in Dust.
That and the stupid initial scope sway. I want BF3 sniping in Dust. I would go scout sniper and NEVER go back. Sounds like you want QUICK SCOPING. What is the best pistol in BF or CoD? a sniper rifle Everyone running with a sniper rifle because it is the best all range weapon with the best dmg. Not a game I want to play and the reason I don't play BF or CoD
I have a friend who got BF4, he's not new to fps but ignorant to that pathetic quick newbing bullsht. I had to tell him that he's not bad, he's just not newbing it up like the 'pros' in those games.
Back to good old low gravity, jump match mutator sniping arena matches in ye olde classic unreal tournament goty edition for him, good lad.

And yes, practice might fix it, but overall, sniping isn't fun enough in Dust to validate me going full time into it. And yes, I was full time Recon in BF3. I think I hit over 300 hours in that class alone.
That could either mean that your an uber decent noob or your good, judging by how proud you are I'm guessing your good.

What is the best pistol in BF or CoD? a sniper rifle Everyone running with a sniper rifle because it is the best all range weapon with the best dmg. Not a game I want to play and the reason I don't play BF or CoD My 1911 Suppressed was FAR better in CQC than my sniper rifle. Why? Because I used a DMR instead of a Bolt-Action. Since it took two shots to the chest to drop targets, it was better to become great with my sidearm instead. Great Recons in BF3 were far more deadly with a pistol than the average assault. We had to be. I just want to be able to quickly acquire targets at range, scope, put the round through their skull, and move on. Not this: Find target at range. Crouch. Scope. Wait. Fire. Leave. That's how I want sniping at range but with no mechanic to prevent the cqc quick scoping that is bf and cod what do you do? I want bullet drop and all that too just noting that makes it as good as a pistol at short/med range. How about the holding your breath thing from BF3, but it takes longer for it to steady the scope. Like it takes a good 1/2 second to steady the scope, and can be done without crouching. If you try to fire before the sight "settles" you get terrible bullet deviation
Theres quite a few games that did this where you can hold your breath to steady the shot and your stamina would drain until you breathe out and it recharges. The scope sway was constant though but disappeared when you held your breath.
I believe this would be great but while standing it should reduce sway to a minimal amount but not absolutely. Seen as dust likes to retain some elements of realism, absolute sway reduction while standing is a ridiculous idea and the same for kneeling but this would make more sense and the ability to go prone would be even better.
Iv fire a scoped rifle as well, I could imagine some people may be able to kneel and fire without swaying or moving in rl but only momentarily.

I think absolute sway reduction while kneeling and holding your breath in dust would be fine as its a game but not standing. Complete reduction of sway while kneeling would have to go as well. Only when holding your breath should it completely go while kneeling.
There should always be sway when standing but minimised by holding your breath, everything we say here is void anyway.
Feedback/requests is that way >>>>>>>>>>>
