i think that m95 should kill a non-armor soldier with one shot in chest and a armored soldier with 2 shots in chest

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.
Not hardly.  They do need to increase the scope power, because it just isn't that good.  As long as they maintained bullet drop for distance, and variation due to other factors as the distance increased, it would be a far more balanced option.  The sniper rifle should have a powerful scope and allow them to spot targets at distance, even if they can't hit it at that point.  This would require the sniper to wait or change tactics to stealth the target.

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)
I totaly aggree, i think it was best done in americas army where you had an aim metre where you had to wait a while proned before you could shot accuratly. it think snipers (or just an unlock) should be 1 shot kill BUT where you need to take time before shoting so you couldnt be a close combat sniper like awpers in CS, you would have to stay way out of combat and pick off targets at range. The way snipers should be.

i think the zoom is as good as it is. Anymore and you'll be able to see you're enemy's sweat. If i were u guys, I would just worry about the bulletdrop on the M95. That's enough to keep people busy

(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)


It not LAME, (1) its people conection that are lame cant kill some one that has high pings but  with some one with good pings one shot kill (2) M95 cross hairs are way to big, hate it when you see some one way out there and the cross hairs are blocking your view and can't get a clear shot

<whine> 1st Its deliberate by DICE not EA, EA is the producers not the developers. </whine>
2nd I agree with you on that the sniper rifle should be more powerfull (atleast the USMC one) but the zoom should stay the way it is. Just wait until they get close enought!

Are you kidding!

Shooting moving targets at 400m+ is fun mainly because you can barley see the target. Long range sniping is funner because you don't have an awesome shot.

Like said above - Sniper class is fine the way it is.

The other problem about being a snipers is that god damn shot direction finder that comes up when you peg someone.  You all know what I mean, when you're getting shot, the games tells you where the shot is coming from.  It totally ruins the sniping part of the game...

if you check my stats you'll see I am a devoted sniper... however, I don't agree on your point wraith, as if you were shot on the battlefield it would be very, very, very easy to tell which direction it came from. so for me the shot indicator makes perfect sense.

you can't look down and see which direction the bullet entered your chest in BF2, so the indicator pretty much serves that purpose. it simply drives us, teh devoted and skilled snipers, to hold that trigger and really persue that head shot. I like it.

i agree, if they couldn't find me then it'd be no fun, cuz then they wouldn't run into my claymores while trying to look for me in said spot.

I think the M95 is just stupid . It's suposed to be an "un-lock " huh ? What are we un-locking - nothing . Cept a different model and textures and a sound effect . To make this POS even more annoying is that it is not as good as the origional rifle you start out with . Becuase of one stupid thing . The cross hairs are too thick and you can't see far targes now . Nice going . God I wish I could be an authenticity manager at EA . To make this gun even more anoyyng then thick cross hairs is the fact that you can't kill someone at ten feet with a center mass shot - this is 50.cal folks - 5o. cal .............lol they are 95% dead but can kill you when your into your 6 second reload . Fail .

i personally like the M95 if you don't like it so much then just don't use it, but for those of us who actually don't find a problem with the cross hairs it does wonders.

I'm happy with rifles as they are. 2 shots to kill, appropriate zoom.
