calling all snipers ver2.0

Re: calling all snipers ver2.0

As I have mentioned in some previous posts, I do like L96A1 most with one exception. On Wake Island, if I'm playing in China forces and if USMC forces can ashore, then Type 88 rocks. It's as accurate as L96A1 up to 250m, and when used with experience, even in longer distances. There are two matters that makes it superior in this situation. Like L96A1 it has very thin crosshair to use, this makes it easy to take a headshot. Other point is semi-auto action. It's extremely fast to use on multiple targets, there are no better sniper riffle to use against moving targets in the game. I actually could say that it is the best riffle within the game. Only limitation is that it's only available while playing in China forces.

Re: calling all snipers ver2.0

I agree with ACE... although I generally prefer the L96A1 over the M24 due to it's faster reload time. It reloads as quick as the M95 and it's as accurate (or more due to the better scope) as the M24, so it has the best of both worlds. I do really like the Chinese/MEC sniper rifles lately due to the increased accuracy and semi-auto functionality... for taking out a moving target, they have no match.

I really don't mind the idea of getting kill assists... most people realize they got sniped when they instantly go down to 2 bars and then get killed by my teammates. Since I play in a squad mostly, I don't mind that... I usually can help my squad by softening a flag's defenses and taking at least 2-3 guys down to 2 bars sending them either to their death at the hands of my squadmates or running off to a medic which shows me where he's hiding :)

M24

Reliable, accurate, nice crosshairs, decent reload time....just as lethal as any other with a headshot.

Re: calling all snipers ver2.0

SVD is the new best sniper rifle.

Newfound accuracy = headshots when you try for them.

Rapid fire = you can miss the first shot and it won't matter, better for moving targets, better for the aggressive sniper, etc.

Plus, it's easily the coolest looking sniper rifle in the game.

Re: calling all snipers ver2.0

L96 definatly best in game tho can see it being completly replaced IRL by the L115A1 with the heavier round

Re: calling all snipers ver2.0

Re: calling all snipers ver2.0

L96A1 fo' life! m24 is a close second and m95 third. the svd ugh has that retarded site i don't really care for it. give me classic crosshairs.

Re: calling all snipers ver2.0

The new rifle sounds cool and is therefore more powerful.

Still havent gotten used to its drop...but it seems to handle moving and shooting really well. Which is good cos i dont often do the long-range sniping thing, prefer to be in the middle of the action.

For extreme long range stuff i might choose the m24 cos i can hitting moving targets at range alot better with it.

That may be the case, but you're still exaggerating your success with Type 88 when compared to m24/L96A1. There is a noticeable difference between the accuracies, even with the boost.

As I said it is as accurate as L96A1 when sniping up to 250m. I have now problems taking USMC soldiers from the arty island while laying behind the trees on the AA site closest the island With Type 88. I just checked the distance and it is 330m. With Type 88 it just takes few extra rounds to figure out correct elevation, and then u can start poping the enemies. But then again, the scope of L96A1 is better and of course I use that instrument in such cases. I can drop enemies over 400m with L96A1

My point is that when USMC has captured the first flag, it's time to switch weapon. When fighting on main island there are not too many cases when u need to shoot over 150-200m. Instead there are many cases where people are rushing towards u and u need to be quick and accurate on 50-150m.

When having your own peace near Chineese airfield with reliable Type 88, it is enjoyable watching some poor USMC sniper crawling on the ridge on the South cape near Beach flag. When he stops moving 1-3 shots and down he goes.I have tooked some kills with Type 88 while shooting from airfield up to South Base and that's near 400m.

Sniping is not magic, find the right elevation, keep your aim steady for a second and take the shot. That's it.

Only thing to bear in mind is to study your shot by keeping the fire button down so long that you know whether your shot was a hit or not.

Re: calling all snipers ver2.0

Increased accuracy with the same advantage of power over the other snipers. The 95 is the one I choose.
