No you miss understand, its a game nothing is real, its a over stimulated example of real life. Just the thought that if a game would be developed to simulate real life, it could possibly be the worse / best game ever I don't know. It doesn't matter, you still got shot by a random sniper dude you bumped into. Point taken triiviium.

First qs shouldn't be called a sniper. Both videos show that the kids will do any thing to win. You can thank mommy and daddy for that.

I understand I was going to die in the first place, My aim/accuracy is higher than most everyone misses occasionally. You seem to have missed the whole point of the thread and the video. The point I am trying to make is a sniper rifle should not be able to be shot like he did. A 50 cal kicks like a mule and how fast he fired it was completely wrong.

I checked out your vid, and yea you sucked at aiming that one time and the guy with the sniper shot randomly and got you. That's what I got from that vid, you missed him, he got you. Nothing to it, improve your aiming son!

Anyone? Just youtube the freaking rifle and you will get an idea. But your point on how weapons should reflect real life, is diluted. No point at taking your points furthers simply its a game nothing is real. No one gets shot sits bleeds out and goes back into battle. Not to mention dorks like you who complain that a video game a first person shooter isn't "lifelike" c'mon chief step out of your fantasy.

Anyone who has ever seen a Barrett fired in R/L or fired one will tell you the version in game is complete BS. The recoil on that sucker is ridiculous and the game does not take that into account at all. I'd love to see someone take a shot standing or crouching with that gun and remain on their feet, let alone have any accuracy, lol. I see nothing wrong with having it in game, but they need to fix the recoil on the gun to make it more realistic, as it stands now it is too much like a mini-assualt rifle with ridiculous range. Don't even get me started on the Dragunov...to me it just seems like IW wanted to make the game more fun for the nOObs so they nerfed recoil and kick big time on all the weapons. The kick perk is pretty much useless as is. They also have crap maps for sniping in MW3, even in MW2 you were too close together on the maps. They need to talk to the guys who did PVP on Halo and Halo 2 to come up with some good sniping maps.

I feel that snipers have it to easy, with the hold your breath, steady aim, stability proficiency, they are just to easy to use. Sniping is not any where close to what it should be in this game, which by the video is apparent.

Ii think that was the RASS (or however it is spelled). Has a bit lower damage but huge magazing and low recoil.

With Kick+ACOG (or just no sway) it can be used like a non-pump action shotgun.

Rediculous...

The reason for bolt action is so they cant rapid panic fire the sniper. It takes a while to chamber a round, with the barret I always get mowed down because they panic. We have a permit for a barret and that gun kicks more than a semi running you over. It will break your collar bone if it is even an inch from your shoulder.

the barrett is a semi automatic sniper rifle (with massive recoil), it is a real weapon so why should sniper rifles be limited to bolt action, if that is the case then remove rapid fire for smg's, and while you are at it remove extreme conditionion, then move on to removing auto shottys.

I corrected you. Also this game respectively the COD series is completely unrealistic but "shotgun sniping/spamming" is very annoying.

Sniper Rifles shouldn't even be in the game period. You're never gonna see some guy running with a sniper rifle this close to the enemy.

Re: This is a perfect example of why sniper rifles should be bolt action.

donotreply@activision.com — Tue, 06 Dec 2011 14:29:33 GMT

my point exactly

quick scoping is so stupid

I understand it's an arcade game but quickscoping or using a sniper rifle this way, makes MW series everyday more ridiculous.

The only COD i know in which the snper rifle can be used,more or less, the way it is intended to, is Black Ops.

But i also have to say that i very rarely saw a retarded quickscoper in MW2, not so many.

BUT,First game i played on MW3,there was a quickscoper.

Second game i played there were 3 quickscopers on the same team and things are going worse and worse.

You want to quickscope or use a sniper rifle as an assault rifle? No problem, but the game simply get ridiculous. I just feel as i'm playing with a bunch of 10 years old players.

But anyway,no problem.When i want to play a real FPS game, i can go on BF3.

so you would agree as well that quickscoping is impossible with a sniper rifle.
