    Sniper to WEAK ????!!!!

    Well as i was saying, i got the upgraded sniper(UNLOCK) when i check it out, it is still 2 shots to kill a person. Doesnt anybody else think that the sniper should be stronger???

    Hit 'em in the head. A one shot kill no matter where you hit them, would result in a snipefest.

      No. Sniper rifles were made more accurate to make it easier to get headshots (1 hit kills)

        If you stand at arm's reach and shoot someone in the chest with an m95, a little cloud of dust will appear, and the person will move as if they were a brick wall.

        M95/m24/l96 should be a one shot kill on the chest.

          Sniper is alright I think. You can't make him TOO strong or else we'd have a gazillion snipers lone wolfing around the map. I know this will turn into a .."m95 is a .50cal and should be a one shot kill. This game isn't realistic and sucks..." conversation. Fact is as this is a game they have to try their best to balance the kits and I think they have done an alright job. Just my 2 cents.

            Bit its not good for gameplay so its not going to happen, the snipers fine and infact if you cant get any head shots you might consider a class change.

              I wish they'd make the cross hairs on the M95 thinner.

              Its a weapon for use at long range and they make the line so thick its wider than the target.

                Do you think you'd gallop away after taking a G3 slug point blank to the chest.

                  Snipers and Support received all the love in the new patch... All the sniper rifles rock but the new one just rules... And since FF has been turned off for Claymores and you can no longer blow them up, they are everywhere... Instead of C4ing the flag now I just Claymore the flag.. It needs to be fixed though, it shouldn't be this way...

                    Do you think you could take any bullet shot to the chest and just walk away? Hell a leg shot would put you in the dirt unable to get up.

                        using that logic then every single bullet shot, from the pistols to the machine guns should knock someone down with one shot. For this kind of game, thats probably not going to happen.

                        Maybe if the bullets had true physics applied to them, it would be acceptable.

                        In any case, I think the sniper rifles now are just right. Getting headshots on moving targets is gratifying. :)

                          It's definatly not too weak. I love it...personally the new rifle out does all of them. It would be really gay if it was a one shot kill. I personally enjoy that the sniper is a balanced class. Honestly, if I had a one shot rifle....u might as well say screw it, there is a sniper over there and im not going over there without a tank or arty.

                            Agreed. It makes it really hard to get a headshot, if you ask me. Most targets aren't sitting still, too.

                            I tried the L96 which has much thinner crosshairs. Lots of headshots with that one, and I have been killed with one shot from L96 in one week than any M95 in 8 months.

                              You aren't kidding about the mines being everywhere now. It's ridiculous, but it is nice to be able to drive over friendly mines.
