L85A1 and G36C are the most 1337 sniper rilfes in the game.

Edit: The G3's single shot is a good sniper too.

Both the M95 and the L96A1 are armour piercing sniper rifles, meaning regardless of armour, they get any player down to 2 bars of health if they're hit in the torso or legs (I think, I read that from somewhere), of course headshots do 3X more damage so it's an instant kill. The M24 is not armour piercing, that's why it only does half to you if you get hit in the torso with armour.
Wrong, AGAIN. Geez, would you look over the thread you're posting to at least before writing stuff like this?! This is how myths get perpetuated.
Wow, speaking of ignorance, I also said the following "Am I right? If you are dying to prove me wrong, then yeah, I'm probably wrong." You go and figure out what that means.

Look dude, if the subject were important to you you would have checked before your wrote all the dodgy stuff in the first place, you don't excuse that by just tacking on "Am I right?...I'm probably wrong" at the end. Besides, you practically asked to be corrected, I was only too happy to oblige

IMO there isn't a 'best' sniper rifle, they all have their uses, but i'd say the Type 88 is the worst.

M95 is NOT useless.

The L96 kills in 2 hits, but then it takes 3 pistol shots to kill

The M95 reduces them to 2 bars of health

The only useless one is M24, absolutely nothing over the L96

i like to think that each level has their own best rifle, e.g - Dragon Valley - L9, Gulf - M95 and Karkand - M24

Yes if u want to shoot down helicopters go for the stinger, fighter, bomber, attack chopper or heavy machine gun type sniper rifles. I prefer using anything but the M95, though lately I've been using the L96, my last unlock.

Thicker sights make aiming easier, try it. My fav is still the SVD though, #1 Headshot machine and theres no point argueing it.

I heard some where that the M107 was in the code but was hastily edited out due to balancing reasons. Is this true?

Yes.

I edited it back in in a mini-mod.

And it's a good thing they edited it out because the DICE original version is nerfed so hilariously badly, it's useless. (It was too powerful IRL...so they made it useless in-game...then they just took it out.)

-Less damage than any sniper rifle. (3/4 shots to kill infantry in body. WTF?)
-Approx. 2x scope. Think 2142 snipers.
-Scope field-of-view that's about, oh, 1/4 of your screen.
-Scope glitches when you move while zoomed.

I changed the scope magnification and upped the damage in my mod, but I can't fix the scope problems.

Edit: Oh, and you couldn't fire it while crouched/standing. I changed that too.
