Velvet Overkill 104	Posted - 2012.08.03 00:57:00 - [1] - Quote Add a two round burst sniper riffle. Have it so that it has a higher magazine capacity, each burst does less damage than the tactical sniper riffle, and slightly less accuracy for the second shot. The delay before firing the second could be around 0.65 seconds apart and it should have an increased fire rate around the speed of a breach AR.
Aniarch Algintal Core Gallente Federation 9	Posted - 2012.08.03 01:20:00 - [2] - Quote +1 would like more variety in the sniper rifle arena. Like a Dragnov (spelling?) - semi auto.

Zero Harpuia Maverick Conflict Solutions 422	Posted - 2012.08.03 03:31:00 - [4] - Quote Erm.. wouldn't the first shot's recoil make the second shot miss... horridly? Besides, the SMG is meant for short range, it can afford having a less accurate variant. the Sniper Rifle is meant to shoot things WAY down-field... I just don't see how this could work.

I'ts the future. Also if you use a tact sniper rifle, you can easily fire two shots without much recoil and with some skill, have 3 shots hit you target in a few seconds. Having a burst sniper riffle doesn't seem that unpractical.

Having a burst sniper riffle doesn't seem that unpractical. I would say it's extremely impractical. An assault rifle or SMG can afford some inaccuracy at short/medium range, the target isn't really a pin head. However, at the range sniper rifles are meant for, even the slightest twitch of the barrel could translate into some pretty severe inaccuracy. Having a "burst" would push the barrel up and make the second shot very ineffective.

Having a "burst" would push the barrel up and make the second shot very ineffective. Not quite. Two round burst like the AN-94 are very accurate because they have the Quote: ability to delay the recoil force until the fired round/s have left the barrel with blow-back shifted pulse.

Jonquill Caronite Tronhadar Free Guard Minmatar Republic 115	Posted - 2012.08.05 00:27:00 - [8] - Quote Velvet Overkill, touche =). But yes this sort of sniper rifle could be added, although aside from depleting your ammo faster as trade for more damage, I don't see the difference between this and the equivalent of a Magnum sniper with really low ammo capacity to begin with, and a very high damage... Seems its the same result just with slightly different flavor, perhaps the former needing more graphical adjustments then the latter to make it seem realistic =).
Eberheart Fairwinds Crux Special Tasks Group Gallente Federation 2	Posted - 2012.08.15 01:08:00 - [9] - Quote I'm not a real fan of sniping in dust so far I don't like the fact we only get one zoom mode with the snipers and it might just be me but I have a hard time actually hitting someone at a decent range. I don't want to be able to kill from all the way from the other side of the map or anything. It just doesn't seem as comfortable to shoot as the Battlefield 3 snipers for example.
