Poll: Snipers?

[Deleted]

I use sniper rifles to shoot enemies that are already engaged with my teammates to help them out. And I occasionally shoot important targets like the flag carrier/kill streaker, keeping him in my sights until I get a good shot. Because if I miss, he'll know there's a sniper and be more careful.

I don't believe in 2 shot kills with a sniper, if I shoot someone and they survive, I just move on.

I hate sitting in a corner looking for targets in non-team games though.

I hate them and I hunt the lil fuckers down and knife them to death

So you're a Knifer? I would love to play against you sometime, Kinfers make very lively and interesting enemies.

I'm a horrific shot, so the scope sure helps!

 

[cheese_wizington]

It's what I do best to be honest. Sniping and sneaking is what I do, especially in multiplayer.

 

[Pyro Paul]

ah... i'm a bit of a marksman rather than a sniper.

a few well placed shots rather than a single pin point shot.

i'd much rather have a sniper weapon with out a scope or low powered scope rather than the long range x8 zoom of a normal scope.

Online heck no, but single player it's great fun. Especially in Borderlands, and Mass Effect.

On other games like Crysis, Battlefield, Unreal Tournament etc I like to snipe because it's beneficial. I was playing MAG just before and I took out 6-7 people in one position, stopping them from flanking my team and giving them the time to set up some defence at a capture point. In that instance, I was benefiting the team. On a game like COD, I don't even see the point in sniping. It takes no skill and an M16 can do the same job, and can also be used in other circumstances.

That being said, I don't snipe all the time, but it's probably one of my most used weapons.

Hate them usually. In team fortress I play a lot of scout, so they're pretty much cannon fodder then though. Absolutely hate the bastards in call of duty. Did I mention the hate?

 

[Nex-Falx]

Also, quick scopers can go fuck off and die.

Haha. That's what makes me a great counter-sniper. I'm like Quick Draw McGraw with my M21 EBR.

Anywho.
Sniping is what I do on MW2. Every map... that I can remember off the top of my head...

(Hardcore Team Death Match maps... Screw "Rust", or what ever it's called.)

Try looking in stores. I hear they tend to sell things in there.

I don't particularly like sniping, it is a shame I am so good at it.
Everyone knows melee weapons are for real men, shotguns come in second, third semi-auto weapons of all sorts, then burst fire weapons, then snypuhs and for the real wusses, fully automatic weapons.

I've always had some of the worst hand-eye coordination on the face of the planet, and all my friends are excellent at sniping in multiplayer FPSes so I have nobody to talk to about the sheer challenge of it.
In MW2 I only snipe on Wasteland and I ussually get snuck up on it is so infuriating to wait five minutes for someone to show up at Point C and then have someone come up and knife you in the back, I ussually don't get pissed when a sniper kills me unless that same sniper kills me multiple times in a row.
