ok then, if you really believe this then start a campaign to get ohk "sniper" rifles. because at the moment they are not effective enough for that kind of play.

also:
1. look up, snipers on google
2.check what current day sniping records are you will be supprised
3. People hated quick scope play in cod, why do you seem to think all of a sudden that they want us to be doing it here? do you honestly believe that we will get less hate for it?
4.you say how can it be a bad thing... well because there are alot of things that sniping consists of in dust that is not out and out killing which are still important, this would remove those elements
5.there were alot of shots in there where a rail or scrambler or laser rifle, or plc, or combat rifle (in one amusing case a shotgun or scp) would of been alot more effective.
6. do you even snipe or are you commenting on something just to try to have a negative effect on it?
7. 120m is not an effective sniping range and limits the view of the field severely, if you don't see a problem there then you clearly don't snipe.
8. do you think that this could be done in pc matches?
9."hiding on towers" showing your true biased opinion here, so i guess you think that all snipers are "cowards" (probably whilst you run around using auto aim and firing from the hip all the time)
10. if your weapon of choice is not the sniper rifle then why do you feel the need to try to ruin it for those of us who do?

cqc sniping awesome ,...those quickscopes remind me of my cod mw2 days...

So i saw all the moaning coming from snipers about the new reticle and how hard it is to get headshots, i havnt sniped since beta and all ive got is an adv sniper.

As you can see in my montage there's nothing wrong.

You might need to Manually switch it to HD btw :)

This is what my squad has been doing, new sniper reticle is good, aslong as the snipers now realise the dont have to camp, you can move now, your freeee!!!!

Nice shooting aswell saxon.

1.google doesn't have anything about how sniping will be in the distant future, nothing facts wise
2.Once again this game isnt current time
3. The quick scope here is nothing like cod, don't even try that ****.
4. when on the move you can still deliver intel, but you have a better ability to move with your squad and cover any part of the map.
5. The idea of the video was to show you it works.There is a lot of times in the game were a shotgun aint the best choice...
6. very poor question here for #6
7. You too used to the redline, in the redline you are also limited, more so than a sniper on the move.
8. If the sniper was good enough, this closer role could cause some real issues, remember sometimes just stripping shields for your squad will help.
9. Dude there are players on this game that leave battle when you counter their thales, There a players who snipe using a thales, sentinel GK.0 and hide as far back in the redline as they can. Some players even have a gunloggi sat beside them so if their GK.0 is shot once the just hide in the vehicle and move... Not biased, this is truth.
10. Personally I am a sniper with proficiency sniper, who is loving the new scope, because I have decided to take the opportunity, to run out field with my sniper, and have also been successful.

Try before you Cry

3. not saying it's the same i am saying that doesn't it seem odd to you that players who hated in one game are suddenly so willing to accept it in a new game? (and it's not the scope it's the playstyle)

No one is suggesting that Dust sniping should be the same playstyle as COD quickscope. We're talking about engaging from 150-200m, not 15-20m.

Holy crap. I'm going to replicate your exact fit in an attempt to emulate what you had done in the video.

Be back after I fail miserably.

:) good luck

Lol 16/3. 2 or 3 NK kills in there. Stupid ADS kept killing me if only you could snipe them out the cockpit. Adv gal scout, reactive plate, cardiac, kincat, kaal/knives, light/sidearm damage mod, hive, REs. Pretty fun. Was at 90 sensitivity trying 100 now.

Gonna hook up my old tv & try some white dotting tonight.

so you are suggesting that snipers have a maximum range of 200m
no thank you.

also look at the video again there are plenty of his kills that are within the <100m range, some of them within knive range and a fair few within hmg range, in at least one example he kill a heavy by shooting 3 shots and finishing with the smg, whilst a skilled kill, he pulls it off because the heavy is reloading.

again, if you really want snipers to become marksmen instead of being snipers, then you should start campaigning for them to have no sway and aim assist,(because no one else bothers to aim) and high alpha damage. they are not supposed to be for doing cqc.

and the misguided idea that ccp did this as a way of nerfing our range is completely wrong, they did it because some rather stupid snipers were complaining they couldn't see through the dot.

and by the way, lets say that we get the new useful sniper rifles to be marksmen rifles...
do you honestly believe that the player base wont use them for quick scope at those ranges?

there are players that put a dot on their screen so they don't need to use the scope at all, you don't see them now because the sniper rifle is too weak for it work.

Today I headshotted at 586m, I headshotted at 68m. The range has not been nerfed. simple as.

In my opinion, tac sr should keep the current hoop reticle, as it does suit the weapon, and the weapon does work well at a good variation of ranges. The standard and charge rifles, rely on good accurate shots, due to the limited chance to take it. They should get the dot.

Nice video, Sax.

Anyone who's gone against you knows you have skills and it's not surprising to me to find out they extend to the much-hated sniper rifle.

I was rooting for you to melee that heavy. :)

Why'd you wish me good luck at failing? I just went 6-9 because of you...

Seriously, shit is hard to do. How you got 20 kills and over is beyond me, but nonetheless, major props to you.

Cloak / Submachine gun crutch, abuse those until you find militia suits to kill with a tactical.

Treat is like a bolt action, instead of a sniper rifle and you'll get the same results.

I don't cloak too much outfield sniping, mainly move, tap tap tap, move. We took a fair amount of protos out also, including heavies.
