tips for sniper headshots

[CptainCrunch]

Maybe i should go in one of those servers and do the shotgun challenges. Since i hardly use them. But all the AR and SMG challenges i can do in the normal pub servers...

In regular mode, you can pwn in Shipment with the shotty. Its a good idea.

Also, the ROE in Shipment is to only survive, its very obvious this map was meant to throw caution to the win, hook up the bandalier and Rambo it.

Im thinking about Shotty, bandolier, sleight of hand and maybe Deep Impact..

Maybe i'll try this one later...

Hmmm, I wonder if deep impact does much for the shotty. Interesting choice.

I use bandolier and sleigh for the 4 shot shotty and it works very well.

And if ya choose the W1200, double tap makes the "click-clacks" faster, almost like the semi-auto in firing velocity... then the reload is normal... maybe not for shipment... may i try someday... i really hate the map but who knows... was a pain in the a** getting the digicamo for the 1014... :p

I don't know.. :p

Extreme Condition*(thingy thing) doesn't do much good on shipment, neither does Dead Silence or Iron Lungs...

So i just threw Deep Impact there..

*Edit*

F*** that s*it...

If i don't get the shotgun challenges, then fine... But i just can't do it..

Im a sniper, i don't do shotguns..

Deep Impact does work well for the shotty. I don't personally use it because I've never adapted to shooting through walls. One of my mates uses a shottie most of the time and he gets a lot of kills with Deep Impact. I know because I've been the dead guy a lot :dead:!

Thanks for the tips. I've never been a dedicated sniper, but I've been learning the ropes lately and having a good time at it.

Iron Lungs brings about a bad habit - it allows you to sit in your scope for 10 seconds, which means you are exposed from the flanks for 10 seconds.

I personally prefer deep impact - you see a guy running from cover to cover, and you still have a chance to hit him after he runs around a wall/corner.

For headshots... I wouldn't worry too much about it - use stopping power accordingly (in regular mode) to allow for 95% of hits to be 1 hit kills.

you do know this thread is about headshots w/ sniper rifles???:laugh:

Well, it's the best tip you can give a sniper... health regenerates so don't waste your time focusing on headshots. I mean, it's hard to say something other than "aim at the head" - so I decided to give some more general sniper advice.

alot different to 2142's way of killing.

got both the bolt action headshot challenges out of the way. it was damn tough, i was only averaging 35 or so headshots per round where as i can get double that with semi auto rifles. baretta is the last one left, maybe i'll try to get headshots the old fashion way with this rifle. i still think dragunov is the best sniper rifle in the game, i will probably use it for general play once i'm done with the marksman challenges.

[Kodakk]

Too much recoil to make the dragunov effective IMO.

if you read my post from last page, you would know it's all about the ACOG my friend...
