- What do you think about the new Sniper Rifle in Euro forces
i doubt they're giving it the ability to shoot through glass... cause if they did then there wouldn't be any reason to use the M95 and well, it'd be a worthless unlock. i bet it's gonna be an M24 variant that has a different scope. hopefully something like the Type 88's cause that has the best scope out of any of the rifles.
Well, all the sniper rifles are getting redone for accuracy, so all of them will be more accurate. Hopefully the hitboxes are upgraded too though. I've hit many guys in the head and they don't die. their body just twitches and a puff of smoke shows but no damage.
lets hope its worth it
i just looked over the accuracy thing, and it says "High" so that leads me to believe that it's going to be just as accurate as the semi-auto snipes and the M95.
What do I think of it? I don't know, I dont' have it yet.
The way I think the damage should be is one hit kills no armor and it should leave the same amount of health to armored people an M24/95 would to a non-armored person. It makes perfect sense.
wow....
do u play a lot of CS:S?
one hit kills would just make the game suck major donkey dong

I would love a Semi-Auto that shoots and scopes like the M24 WITH armor/window piercing capabilities. Too bad that's not happening.
it would be sweet it it was chambered in .300 winchester magnum! as oposed the the 7.62 nato round of the m24 ingame.
i wished to get a semi-auto sniper that was slightly more accurate than the others, maybe they coulda just added a higher recoil or something to balance it...
As long as the new Sniper Rifle kills a man when they are clearly shot in the head I'll be happy with it. Two for the chest seems right to me, becaue if it was only one to the chest it would be overpowered imo.
One shot sniper kills are overpowered only because sniping in BF2 is ridiculously unrealistic. If getting a hit meant having to compensate for wind, distance, bullet drop, bullet inaccuracies, stance, breathing correctly, etc, then by all means make a 1hit kill sniper rifle. If we can just point and click without any worries at all then 2 hit kills are needed to ensure fairness.
uber micro
i used to play Joint Operations, and that L115A was a nasty nasty rifle... Now that was an entirely different game, but compared to the other guns in the game.. i loved it... it was accurate as shit, bolt action with a farther viewing distance than every gun but the m82. We'll see how EA decides to screw it up though... I wish sniping was as technical as Joint Operations... I used to enjoy sniping, but this game was never designed for snipers... Novalogic had that dynamic on lock... Its funny when you see more snipers running into the Hotel flag on Karkand tossing claymores at their feet and running away... I dont think that was the initial way snipers were supposed to operate, but since they are useless in Battlefields gameplay, why not right...
Don't forget scope adjustments.GotMex? wrote:

I hope the new one is more accurat then the "old" M95... BTW: sniping in bf2 suxxs. The M95 is the most powerfull sniperweapon althougt but in this game you have to hit the target two times in the body, what the heck?!
I think one hit snippering like in CSS (AWP) is probably overpowered, but more realistic.

If you say "although" you don't have to put "but" after it.fon|sl4y3r wrote:

I just hope it's identical to the M24. I hate using the M95 as MEC/PLA.
Try asking this again when it's actually available,I hope it's an improvement on the m95 which is a joke.xX[Elangbam]Xx wrote:

I used to play sniper in every online fps I've played yet,there was UT,TacOps,BF1942,IGI2,Sniper Elite,etc,etc...and none of these games(not even BF1942) had such an inaccuracy like BF2 when it comes to sniping.
It's always the same,I can hit running targets on "just visible"-range,on 30 to 40 meters I hit the target and there even is the impact effect of the bullet but no real hit....and then you get mowed down by a noobtuber who should have been dead by now if the friggin' rifle would actually work how it's supposed to.
If the patch and the new sniper rifle don't change the issues about the accuracy I'm probably gonna be too annoyed with being a shitty sniper just because the accuracy is a joke for a sniper weapon system.
