[*ebutka*]

Im new to this forum but not at all new to bf2. I am pretty good with mdeic and ops, but wanting to get better with the sniper. so far i have been doing pretty good with a death and kill ratio of 1:1.5. im always dropping claymores or tossing nades. Any other tips you guys can help me out with? Thanks.

Re: Sniper Help

I only use the M24, and have gotten very good at it. If I am not flying as US I am on the ground with it. Use everything around you, try not to be a "l33t close combat sniper"

Pick a good spot, and after a few kills change location. Also, if you hit someone near you and they are getting ready to unload, switch to pistol and finish them off.

Just some of my tips, hope they help.

Re: Sniper Help

Whats wrong with being a "l33t combat sniper"?! SVD kicks ***.

Atleast in Karkand:)

Re: Sniper Help

Everybody has a different style....
some like the feeling of being a ghost who randomly strikes...
some like being the guy with 30 kills and 15 deaths in 10 minutes....

play some wake island, that should help you figure out which you prefer most
(it allows both tactics IMO)

Re: Sniper Help

Remember, if its a moving target then lead them by a hair. You'll have to practice to get the feel. ALso, if they're running then go for body shots. 2 Shots to the body will kill them and not affect your accuracy rating. Make every shot count.

Re: Sniper Help

Actually being a ghost can help your team, cuz usually there's about 3-4 enemies looking for you. That opens up the cap that you're near for your other teammates to take.

Re: Sniper Help

Talking about those noobs I see diving to get a kill when there are about 5 inf in front of him with M16s and RPKs.

I stay back in cover, and when they to close and the first rifle hit doesn't kill I let the pea shooter finish them off.

use the rifle

you'll probably find the bolt actions most helpful at the start, but once you get the hang of the crap sights on the SVD you'll be able kick butt with that in a sort of DM role

Re: Sniper Help

1:1.5? awww you're just ahead of me =(

And unfortunately I dont think I have any help to offer that hasn't already been said :p although it is possible to find some really neat sniping locations on urban maps like Karkand, if you take the time to have a good look around. Using higher ground to jump/parachute onto the roofs of other buildings most people usually overlook can give you an edge.
