everyone has seen it.. people getting hit by 50 calibur M 95 or m24's with only a drop of life left.

Head shots kill on one hit. should a round to the chest be a one shot kill?>

Sniper are already one-shot kill soldiers. Aim for the head.

in real life it would be so, but i'm a sniper and i think the last thing we need is everyone calling someone who snipes a noob or sniper whore, which we all know would happen.

I guess it depends to me. If you wanted to be very realistic, then I would say it depends.

A upper chest /head shot should kill anyone, no matter the sniper rilfle, in one shot.
What I really liked about COD:UO and the Extreme mod, was that you bled out if you were wounded bad enough.
For example, I would like to see if you snipe someone in the chest, and it doesn't kill them, (only drops them to 2 bars) then if they don't find health in 10 seconds, they lose another bar, and an additional 10, they die, and you get the points for them. I shot a guy in the neck last night with the Barrett from about 30 feet. We were both prone. Guess what, he turned and got me with the g36E. He should have been a headless horseman, but I still got killed. That faction really bothers me.
But I also don't think if you snipe someone in the feet, it should drop them to 2 bars either.
I would rather see the whole sniper damage model reworked, and something like, if you shot the victim in the feet, it would drop them - 1/3, upper legs and stomach - 2/3. Upper chest and head - kill shot.
Thats how I would fix it.

By that logic, DICE should add a weapon that shoots 1 bullet per minute and takes 100 shots to kill a guy. That way if i use it, no one could possibly call me a noob

Sweet god, NO.

They made it a shit-ton easier to snipe with 1.2, I'm sick and tired of being stepped on by 7 other snipers on my team, if they made it one-shot-kill it would be much worse.

Good to be back.

i know but it seemed like you were for it becuase its realistic, but against it becuase its unbalanced. Games should strive for realism but they also should define their own realism.

I think dice should just remove this class all together replace it with something usefull. the way it is now the sniper is just a noob kit, and other than help his team lose the guy who plays sniper does nothing. I know i love when i go into a server and the other team is full of sniper's god i love the noob kills. but i would have to say this if not for noobs playing sniper i would never have got my expert knife badge

If snipers were one-shot-kill anywhere, the game would turn into a n00bsniper fest,(well, it already is but thats besides the point) the new "n00b t00b" would be the M95.

No sniper is an excellent kit. The problem is is that its one of the kits that takes a lot of skill to use properly which frustrates people who dont want to spend the time to learn how.

Hmm snipers are useful actually, they are more of a defensive type of player. And the sniper kit isn't a n00b kit how it is now... it's just as accurate as it should have been in the first place.

I wouldn't mind a One-Shot One-Kill sniper rifle gun. However, to make it fair, sniping would have to be made much harder. As it is, you just point and click. In real life, sniping is MUCH more complicated than this, since you have to compensate for wind, bullet drop, scope adjustments, breathing technique, holding the gun steady, etc etc.

So I think the trade off would be harder sniping, for 1 shot kills.

did you not get that I said it would be a bad thing because it would be way too easy, just because I said it would be in real life it doesn't mean I think it should be. Games and real life are two seperate things and I know that more than most. so Gabbo use your f*cking head

Well ok....then if you want one shot one kill...then why dont you make every primary gun one shot one kill. Make the G3, PKM, etc etc one shot if it hits, a kill.

(Sarcasm) Since in real life, like we really could take like 4 shots from a G36C, have a health bar, turn around and kill him and get a med pack to heal ourselves. (Sarcasm).

If you want one shot one kill then you should play Delta Force 2, that was pretty much, if you got hit once, you were dead.

The sniper rifles (all weapons) are perfectly fine for me, you can get one hit one kill in BF2, just aim for the head.

this patch is making everyone sniper crazed.

Ive play a shit load of sniper, and i rarely see one or two a match that can hold their own.

I used to be respected when i played sniper, now i get called noob, so to answer your question, the sniper kit has been watered down enough. No way in hell should they make it eaiser.
