I think that the scope of a sniper rifle must zoom more in. Exampel: you lay down on your belly and you're a sniper and you see someone with a deathwish, but you can't get a clear shot because he's to far away, so it is a must (i think) for a snipers to zoom more in with your scope!!!

In the real world you can zoom in the 2-3 KM, in the game not more then 200 meters

No way. I get killed too much by snipers as it is.

I think it's just right. And anyway, if you can see him then surly you can kill them if you are a sniper.

I'd like it because then as a sniper you could spot things more easily---IMO snipers serve three big roles--Kill the enemy commander, deny the enemy static weapon emplacements (tow, mg nest etc) and spot things headed their way.

How do they deny static weapon emplacements?

If the zoom is increased I would then support ways of making the shots more difficult ie; cod/AA breathing moving scope. I donot want to see sniping made easy meself. an adjustable scope would be realistic however if we do that we should add the need for BRASS style shooting. (breathe, relax, aim, sight, squeeze)

Personally I think snipers are pretty much one of the classes that they got right. I can't see anything about them as needing a change.

Support the Multi-Zoom scopes for sniper rifles.

They have this function in Battlefield 2: Modern Combat (Console version) so why not in Battlefield 2 (PC Version)??

Really crappy to have it in one and not the other.

BTW The console version still has the Recon Helicopter and Laser Guided Missles from a spotter on the ground and also BH with Missle pods.

I play as sniper quite a lot and get many kills when i play properlyi think the zoom is ok as it is but i would like to see an improvement, but id sooner see claymore with only a -2 for a teamkill, noobs on my team always run up the ladder and blow themselves up

2 claymore teamkills stopped me getting another award and the n00bs that punished me overtook me on the leaderboard!!!

lol thats deliberate by EA. for instance, the M95 sniper can penetra armor vehicles, but can't kill a man in the chest from point blank range... LAME

I agree it pisses me off that u cant see some targets that you would have a clear shot on, they should fix this in the next patch

I think the zoom on the scope is ok, but they need to increase the power of M95. Like it was psoted earlier, you can kill a pilot in a bullet proof canopy, but you can't kill a man wil body armor on in one shot. It got to the point that I don't use the M95 anymore, plus the M24/SVD has more rounds.

This is all I want to see in my scope:

the zoom and power are ok but the thing that drives me crazy is the notchy movement on the scope at long ranges. it always seems that theres a grid and everyone over 350m is in the middle of the grid squares.

And the m95 wouldnt be so bad if the crosshair wasnt so goddamn thick.

well what i noticed before BF2 v1.3 that the m95 had a dmg report of 120 and the m24 90....now the m95 have been reduced and thats what i think is lame. because in 1.2 i just needed 1 shot .

Stop posting about this - there are at least 2 or 3 posts on this from last week alone. If the sniper rifles zoom is any more powerful, you could sit from your spawn and kill people halfway across the map as they spawned - it would give the snipers a completely unfair advantage.

They should take out the M95 and replace it with a pop gun.

Then they'd stop complaining about the M95 all the time.

This game isn't realistic at all. I mean the L98 doesn't even jam in the game at all...

this is quite sad that people who snipe are asking for better sniping equipment why dont you just go and modify the freaking game? hmph? or just go to a smaller map or something so you can pwn on that map without having to zoom in.

No the damage has always been the same between the two. The difference was the m95 can penetrate cockpits and light armor. That hasnt changed since day 1.
