Quick question about sniper rifles (not a rant)

[CtrlAltDe1337]

I have a question concerning the different sniper rifles. Which ones will kill someone with a shot to the body in 1 hit (on a regular server, not HC mode) WITHOUT the "stopping power" perk? I know the M21 and Dragunov don't, but what about the other three? I didn't think any of them did but I had someone shoot me with the R700 and it killed me in 1 hit (and he wasn't using stopping power; I checked the kill cam). I don't think he hit me in the head either. Is stopping power needed for the bolt action snipers/barrett or am I wasting a perk?


Also, on a hardcore server, if someone has the health upgrade perk and you do not have stopping power, which snipers will kill them in 1 shot (or can any?).

if u hit someone in the upper chest it kills them sometimes in one hit with the bolt action or Barrett

The .50 cal should kill with one shot to the chest. Otherwise... wtf.

too much nades?

is this game plagued by too many nades? too often matches with a lot of people turn into an orgy of nades. and with the stupid martyrdom perk, nades are everywhere and every second i hear that clinking sound and i have to run the F away. a lot of the times when i see my death cam, i see i get killed by some guy who is just throwing random nades at places hoping for a kill. actually, we all do that because it works... that's the problem, nade kills are too easy and it's too unrealistic spamming nades all over the place. is this how most fps games are nowadays?

wouldn't this game be a lot better and rewarding if there were no nades to begin with or 1x nade was a really hard perk to get like near the top ranks? i say get rid of the multiple nade perk as well.

Ultimate solution to the nade problem is to make Martyrdom work only if you actually have a nade.

To answer the OP's question, I believe all of the snipers will do you if you hit them in the upper chest. Lower chest/legs is a twofer.

Thanks for clarifying this. :)

Coming from a BF series game, that's a bit harsh to say.

If you play on servers with less people and possibly different game types, you might find less of it (depending on where you go).
