jumping and shooting is good in certain situations, and dragshots too, but not to the extreme that xkullx does it.
here's a good sniper video imo:

The 'upper hand'...Everyone can do it, it's not against the RoE and it works the same way as most latency adjusters, it's just manual.

Sarciss did a tutorial on how to Dragshoot, and how to practice it Jump shots are only good if you're not in direct fire, because it takes about 5 seconds before you can fire again. When I started practicing them, I figured out that if you count to 3 quickly, and click your mouse button on the 2, you will shoot. Just saves you randomly spamming your mouse button and possible moving your mouse.

What are you talking about??? A tweaker???? You can't hitbox tweak on BF2, I don't think you have any idea what you are talking about. If your referring to hitreg, then I think you can't tell the difference between ping/hitbox. If he did tweak his hitreg, which I know him didn't, it doesn't make the 'hitbox' any bigger... it improves your hit detection, but even that is sometimes uncertain.

Your talking rubbish when you say you can move the hitbox around. That would be detected by PB as its clearly fiddling with the actual game, rather than server/client pings.

Dragshots are easy to explain, jumpshots are using the crappy glitches on BF2, which they tried to weedle out in the patches, but failed to do so properly. You can jump shot and go prone with an M16 or a pistol just as easily as a sniper rifle. You fire when you reach the peak of the jump, just before you start dropping... (thats how I do it anyway).

Jumpshots are pretty useless anyway, just for fancy filming really. 99% of the time I'd prefer to quickdragshot, when your visible for less time, than jump. If you do jump then you only do it when you can't get to them any other way...

Here is the video Sarciss made if you want to learn to drag shot. If you do this and get serious about it, you could be doing good drag shots by the end of the week. As for jump shots, they seem pretty self explanatory.

I musta sounded like a noob. Yeah jump shots were what I was doing anyway, it was that landing shot behind cover i was mainly looking for, for the rest I was doing it all perfectly just need practise I guess.

It was your video that made me look for it, you were in karkand you took one shot to the side and then got the assault/medic from doing the jump shot over some box across the street, was hawt

i don't know about that, dude. i couldn't hit this dude (can you name names here?) and when i confronted his friend, he told me that the guy does all kinds of stuff to make him harder to hit etc. and as a long time veteran (not his account), i felt him really dodgy.

also, xkullx has insanely good hit registration, where 80% of us would get a dustshots. a saw him do one really close to an enemy next to him and wasn't even near him with the aim when he shot.
i cna udnerstand if he's playing at a lan with those kills, but...

Improve your net, or stop playing US servers and go to EU's.

Well then you need to learn to shoot, cos if your bullets aren't hitting someone when your crosshair is smack bang on them with that net.. then the technical term is your missing mate..

Lmfao, you think the fact that stats aren't perfect, prove I suck? and not that I maybe start and stop this game about every month? Apart from the fact my accuracy is 3% better..

I couldn't care for your stats, all I know about any server side issues are from what I've experienced, and with me running 1mb net I'm doing perfect, I know if I missed and I accept that, i dont whine about the server or anyone else.

I'm worthy in the fact that I can vouch for it being possible to have good hit reg etcwithout all this fancy modification..

Anyway I don't want to get in an argument here, too nice a place

please. my sniper rifle stats run around yours all day long so don't tell me that i need to aim. if you haven't acknowledged the server side issues with this game yet, i don't know what to tell you.

Surely if your xhairs ARE smack bang on them middle of a static target then you DO know how to aim ?

Or let me guess your supposed to aim so your xhairs arent on them to get the hit ? lollypops
