Close range only for a gun that's meant to be long range? Seriously, you don't think something is wrong with that?

What about a shotgun reticule that doesn't let you see targets closer than 15m? You can still use it to kill, but you can't let them get close or you can't target them anymore.

That wasn't sniping.

Calling your bluff, you're just arguing the point to get more views for your video.

not sniping? kinda is

No.. Just because one USES a Sniper rifle does not mean it's magically "Sniping". If you can perform any of these tasks with a Rail Rifle, you are clearly not sniping.
Sniping by definition is shooting from an unnoticed location. In all of your shots you were clearly very noticed by the people you were shooting. That is called "Assaulting" not "Sniping".

I Highly doubt you could use the gun for what it was actually intended for, which is LONG RANGE engagements.

Beside that I would like to say what I did when I saw the new 'aim-cross' for the first time - if some want to have different aim-cross he should be allowed to do so in his game settings. Yea i agree with that SLAYER.

It'll only be boring if you have no idea how to follow an engagement. Also: You will then find out how much of the maps are designed to prevent sniping from almost anywhere except the redline. Basically speaking, you'll begin to see how poorly planned out these maps are due to most real venues only having a 5-10 meter gap. http://youtu.be/dtXupQg77SU Dust to Dust Remember the dream you had before the day you were born.

Still hate the circle though, you got skill i'll give you that, you got my respect, do not want to fight you in a match. Can you post the complete video of each much, i wanna take some pointers. What suit you using, fast as a scout but like a medium suit on armor and shields, just curious. Respect your talent, not the circle though. I want my sniper rifle x forge gun!

Don't believe lore or CCP... heavy dropsuit that can hold & shoot with pinpoint accuracy with Forge Gun at any distance in any stance (also immune to badass recoil of Forge Gun), but can't do same with light Sniper Rifle And sniper rifle is only weapon that have sway CCP & even simple logical things, not combinable, It will litteraly take about 6-8 years (i'm not joking) of "we are looking into it", just to understand obvious mistakes, but it's alredy little too late for Dust... -í-ç-¦-ü-é-+-+-¦-ï-+ -+-+-¦-¦-é -¦-ï-é-î -é-+-+-î-¦-+ -+-+-¦-+-¦-+-+-¦. -í-ç-¦-ü-é-+-+-¦, -ü-ç-¦-ü-é-+-+-¦, -ü-ç-¦-ü-é-+-+-¦, -ü-ç-¦-ü-é-+-+-¦...

Please tell me how most of these shots would not be outperformed by a Rail Rifle? Oh wait, you're inside RR range, so no. RR has much higher DPS at those ranges... Every time you took an actual Sniper range shot, you slowed down and had to fidget with the reticule because you couldn't recognize where the center was without wobbling the scope around. You basically then admitted to the problem that other snipers are complaining about, while claiming that it doesn't affect you. Very poorly presented really. no it wasn't the fact that i couldn't find the centre, its the fact i dont snipe and i'm not used to aiming that slowly. Aiming slowly has nothing to do with finding the center. You were unable to do so without the numerical notice you bobbled Over the head several times very clearly. I have learned to identify such patterns because of the time I've used with a sniper. Imagine how it is on smaller screens where the readout is not legible? What do you use to headshot?

On the tactical at closer ranges it actually looks quite helpful I can see why you like it. On an unrelated note... the bullet magnetism in this video is just sad.

Find a good spot, move when it's hot, use overview too. To stay alive, snipe away from your hive & any other blue. Stick to these facts or be awesome like Sax & your deaths will be few. Or you can refrain, from using your brain & do what morons must do. No need to complain, it's all in vain, you're just peas in CCP's stew. If strength were all, tiger would not fear scorpion.
