    Some of you folks are going to have to accept that you need to try different servers than the ones you may have frequented in the past. There are still tons of "regular" ones out there where "not everyone" is a sniper or long-range rifler.

    I have bad nights on this game too, where people on a server are making me want to reach through the screen and beat them to a pulp, but then I switch to another server - say one well admin'd by a clan - and it's happiness again. :)

    As a couple people said, the sniper/ACOG fix is new, and people want to try it out. Give them time to adjust.

        You're kidding with that part about the ACOG or you don't use it... It was misaligned on many weapons and much discussed... It needed to be fixed for sure.

          Psh, stop crying. It's your tactics that need revising, not the game.

          On pretty much every map, except for Bloc, it is possible to come up from behind a sniper and flank him. Just doooo it.

            If the new patch forces people to plant claymores, so I can finish bootcamp, I will be happy. And remove last stand from hardcore servers, that would persuade me to send them more money. Can't stand those guys on hardcore. More smoke grenades please.

              I don't understand, almost everyone wanted the Sniper Rifles fixed, but now that they are, they're considered overpowered. What would be a proper fix for the Sniper Rifles then? :hmm:

              Also, I have yet to see Snipers absolutely dominating everyone on a single server.

              ACOG is working fine, at least on my M4. :)

                Yea snipers arent even close to being overpowered. The thing about this game is that there are many ways to kill someone which makes it harder for every1 including the player.

                  I think it's probably a different group of people who don't like snipers now complaining. You'll never please everyone, and its onlythe people who are not happy that come to forums and make these kind of threads.

                    Okay every body needs to stop complaining IW did a great job I love this new patch nothing is overpowered and the sniper rifles arnt amazingly overpowered.

                    Everybody needs to remember that you have to get 100 kills to unlock the acog in the first place so not every sniper has the acog by earning the acog doesn't that tell you that the person earned it.

                    Another thing is the unlock that takes the longest time for each weqon to earn should ne the best thing for someone to use.

                      When in doubt, wait for Whiskey to come in with a post perfectly explaining how it is!

                      A broiled steak while cooking looks like a burnt mess, but wait for the true results and it's great. We all just have to wait for normal play to return before we judge.

                          You kidding me? Aim a shot right on the chest and it would miss for no apparent reason.

                          If snipers are overpowered then nerf them, just don't weaken them by messing with hit detection.

                            I don't understand why everyone complained about them in the first place. They had a minor problem with hit detection sometimes, that's it. Just fix the hitboxes and voila. The sniper used to be one of the few guns with an actual learning curve, an gun where you had to practice with to actually become effective. And the ones who did were very deadly with it! I never understood everyone crying about the sniper cause if they just took a few hours practicing with it they would be able to kill efficiently. I think most people complaining were the sniper whores from CoD2 who want their ubersniper back to rush with it, but this isn't the point of the sniper.
                            Snipers are meant to stay back and pick off stray people from a distance. I loved sniping, it required patience, skill and knowledge of the map. But equip the acog now and it's almost more a run and gun weapon than a sniper oO

                              Probably the reason that people are so deadly with the sniper rifle now is because they aren't playing on Hardcore servers. With the regular mode, you have that ******* UAV all the time along with dots to show where the enemy is.

                              Play hardcore mode and I think you'll find things a bit different.

                                Well if you're a proper sniper the dots are usually too far away at the edge of the map, so you only know the general direction of the enemy
