Not if your shot in the little toe or the finger. But i agree more accurate damage checking is needed, a body/chest or upper arm and leg shot should be a kill. However a foot should not be and it sometimes is.Malyc said:The sniper rifles in MW2, especially the barret and intervention, should automatically be a 1 hit kill, because even if you get shot in the arm with one, you are not going to be in fighting shape anytime soon.
I've had several good, long killstreaks ended because some random dude came around a corner and took 2 .50s through the chest and sprayed me with the p2000. 2x628 grains of diplomacy + enemy chest = 23454 ft/lbs of energy. How did he not die? Iunno.BiscuitTrouser said:Not if your shot in the little toe or the finger.

Trade-off: All snipers must have a spotter with them at all times to ID targets first, and bullet drop as well as recoil means something. Also you have to calculate wind speed and direction before your shots.Malyc said:The sniper rifles in MW2, especially the barret and intervention, should automatically be a 1 hit kill, because even if you get shot in the arm with one, you are not going to be in fighting shape anytime soon.
It does sound like bullshit since the barret isn't meant to be used on people, it's meant to be used armoured vehicles. It's what you use when you have to kill a guy on the other side of about 2-3 inches of steel. The physical energy on impact is not only enough to kill it is enough to turn a human torso to a red mist.Malyc said:I've had several good, long killstreaks ended because some random dude came around a corner and took 2 .50s through the chest and sprayed me with the p2000. 2x628 grains of diplomacy + enemy chest = 23454 ft/lbs of energy.

Barrets are for killing the guy driving a tank while he is still in the tank, wind-speed nothing.Frostbite3789 said:Trade-off: All snipers must have a spotter with them at all times to ID targets first, and bullet drop as well as recoil means something.

Those rounds would not even blink at killing an elephant, and wouldn't have to work too hard to kill a beluga whale. Hell, if you put the APO (Armor Piercing Ordinance) rounds on, you could kill anything that has ever lived on this planet.XSA37 said:Malyc said:The sniper rifles in MW2, especially the barret and intervention, should automatically be a 1 hit kill, because even if you get shot in the arm with one, you are not going to be in fighting shape anytime soon.![]()
Seriously, these things could probably take down an Elepant... but not a soldier, no he needs two or three to even get a bruise.
Correction: Killing the guy driving the tank while the tank is still a mile and a half away, and any shot over 800 yds will have trajectory affected by windspeed.manythings said:Barrets are for killing the guy driving a tank while he is still in the tank, wind-speed nothing.Frostbite3789 said:Trade-off: All snipers must have a spotter with them at all times to ID targets first, and bullet drop as well as recoil means something.

Wow. Imagine if this was in a modern game. There would be 12 year olds abusing it endlessly...Theo Rob said:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c6vE9OGbsNM&feature=related
