oh for the love of god.

if you can not prove beyond a doubt that something is fact then it is only theory,

theory is based upon estimation.
estimation = using experience and education to form an expectation for outcome.
Estimation is not an accurate or acceptable as proof of anything.

e.g.1 hold up your finger and thumb, open the gap to 5mm. now try to measure that gap. it will almost certainly not be exactly 5mm because until you use a measure you cannot be precise. (extension if you get lucky do it a second and third time.)

e.g 2 set up an alarm to ring in precisely 2 mins and another in exactly 3.5 mins, walk away from the alarm and count those exact times. again it is extremely unlikely that you will get to the same numbers at the same time as your alarm, even though you know the approximate length of 1 second and that for sixty of those you get a miniute. (n.b. even in a room with a tick you will struggle but for effectiveness be in a room without any clocks)

e.g 3 on building sites when measuring the height of multiple fixtures that all have the same height a measure stick/template is the most common tool even though most tradesmen carry measuring tapes because of the many variable that can affect the reading of the tape.

If i have to use judgement to find the exact point of anything then it is at best an estimation,
unless done with a measure it can not be accurate. an acceptable measure here where multiple examples are expected to line up in the same place on the same screen would be a template.
for a something to be a template it needs to be in exactly the same place every time.


the old dot which showed us the exact center of the scope was a measured point
the new scope does not show the center of the scope and requires an act of judgment to find it, it is not a measured point.

therefore the new scope reticule is an estimation and is not an accurate tool.

And where would we shoot from at 300m? A lot of maps don't support sniping to begin with, and the ones that do have VERY few spots within 300m of where potential targets would be....that aren't completely obvious anyway, a few you could force to work for a short period of time, but then the main area of engagement for the fight moves n you're now spending half the remainder of the match trying to find a new perch.

Only about 60-70% are in the redline in my matches, and they're mostly starter fits running from a stomp...so I'm ok with them, typically i switch out to a lower grade weapon n give em a body shot so they learn they're in a bad spot, without really ruining their enjoyment of the game, the idiots with a thales/cal sent though....they die, or are kept busy running from a real sniper while I lmao at them.

Also....ds3 and dislike the new reticule beyond 200-300m.

Pick up a scout and run with sniper. 300m and more isnt egnouth for you?

You shouldnt sit whole match in one spot. Maybe you dont, i dont know that.

But what i said, running around in scout suit with damps/cloak is good for sniper.
Points out of town are good example of this.

Can I collect a bit of feedback here:

For each person:
- Do you like the new scope or not?
- Are you using a DS3 or a KB&M?

And i disagree with snipers sitting in once spot, only farming kills.

If you move, you can help your squad/team better when they engage with enemys.

When you move 350meters away and with a cloak, nobody will ever see you .

I will see you.

I will see you first and kill you with a headshot.

or

You will see me first, make an attempt on my life and be forced spending the entire match trying to relocate out of my line of sight.

Commando > Scout

for the current meta.

That's an odd rant, but it's called a f*cking opinion. If you have to go through all that in you're head then you obviously have sh*tty eyesight. What you're referring to is an opinion, neither theory or estimation. It's not that f*cking hard to find the center of a circle that is an approximate 1/8th of an inch in diameter.

I don't know about you, but I have plenty of experience building structures and measuring objects of varying length to use as parts, and can generally eyeball the center fairly well and with ease, and that's with sh*t that is 10 feet long. It doesn't require any amount of calculation or strenuous thinking. To me you sound like an immature and whiny little brat who possesses a fraction of the intelligence of a rat that is somehow capable of using a keyboard and human speech.

That specialisation is also compounded by the previeling view that a M&KB is a requirement to be a good sniper in this game.

If that truly is the case, then for me that is an uninnecessary and unwarranted barrier to throw up in front of PS3 users that have never had a problem being a sniper in other FPS games.
