The best way to go is either 2 body shots, or 1 headshot or torso shot kills and limbs take two hits. CS style man.
This, scopes on larger rifles like 50-cals should have to be set up in a window or while prone, presto, balance.Abandon4093 said:Body shot? A sniper rifle would take someone out if it hit their leg.
A large 50.cal would actually take a persons arm off as the bullet flew past them.
The way you counter the power of these weapons isn't to underpower them, you need to make them cumbersome and you aint even going to try shooting it if you haven't propped it up on a wall or on the ground with the bipod.
That's how sniper rifles should work. Atleast the larger ones.
Smaller semi-auto rifles, just treat them as a heavy assault rifle, 2 body shots is adequate.
A heartshot would be worth much more than a headshot, in my opinion.Furioso said:Perhaps if they made a hit box for the heart, otherwise I can see how people would have issues with it, though the starting sniper rifle in BF3 is total bull, 3+ body shots to kill someone, no no no no no
The key phrase there being 'walk across' - don't be out standing in an open battlefield. Evade, use cover or sneak but if you get dropped for poking around like a turkey that's your own fault, and not necessarily a sniper target.NBSRDan said:Snipers should not kill in one shot even at a weak point. It is extremely annoying to walk across a battlefield thinking you are alone and then suddenly die with no chance to retaliate.
roughly this.hazabaza1 said:Nope.
Just makes people start quickscoping/camping quicker.
What do you mean by weak point?NBSRDan said:Snipers should not kill in one shot even at a weak point. It is extremely annoying to walk across a battlefield thinking you are alone and then suddenly die with no chance to retaliate.
