Any good snipers around?

Re: Any good snipers around?

My number one tip would be to get to know ALL the weapons you have as a sniper. The pistol, knife and claymores can be very useful in certain situations. For example;
*quite often when you get one shot off with the SR on someone, and they'll start running... thats often a good time to wip out the pistol and just a shot or two will take them down. Pistol can hit closer people easier than the cumbersome scope.
*Also if you take someone out who has made you (spotted you), move position or prepare for them to come looking for you again when they respawn. Perhaps leave a little claymore present for them!
*Use cover well- remember whats behind you because it might be silhouetting you for all the enemy to see.
*And of course, if you get the chance, go for the head! Its a one-shot kill!

Most ppls xfires r their names btw.
A sniper tip: Take ur time (My bro shoots as fast as he can, the trick is, to wait till they become prone or fire a shot on them if they r about to move away from ur view.)
Rememba as a sniper, take as long time as u want.

Just keep practising is the key to sniping, you'll find some maps are better at sniping than others. After a couple of kills then move position because you will be spotted and your victims will be out for revenge. Don't go for obvious places (Sharqi crane anyone?) and leave claymores when you move so that people searching for you will get a surprise

Also check out the Hints and Tips section. There are sniper guides there. Add my xfire (in my sig) and I'll happily snipe with you in a squad. It's always more fun with other people. :) Goodluck!

Hey guys.

I've been playing Sniper lately on BF2, and I love it. Sneaking around, staying undetected and picking off people before they even know they are being watched is great.

But I suck at it and I would love some tips and maybe even some snipers to play with who can give me some tips first hand and actually show me? So if anyone would like to show me the sniping ropes they can leave their Xfire or MSN in here and I'll be sure to add them.
