Learn to quit abusing exploits and use a sniper properly. A sniper has a license to park his ass in an elevated position; if you can't kill him before he kills you, then what does that say about your skill level?

personally i hate qsers as it takes no skill but i dont mind the real snipers who take their time to get the kill. Think all qsers should be reset to beginning rank or just banned from xbox live. But thats just my humble opinion!

personaly i would like to see games where there is no aim assist, i know its in all games cos the analogue sticks are not precise enough but ive always down well when ive been able to swith it off. it takes so much skill and fun out when you push the ADS and automaticly target the nearest enemy.

Lol, i hate quick scopers just because i think it takes no skll to tap LT and press RT with auto aim on this game. But, its whatever, it doenst bother me. All the 12 year old quickscopers ALL of them have under 1.2 kd and all of them go neg in search game... its whatev if people want to play to lose its ok with me.

This is not how snipers should be used, but this game is too kid friendly. It also disgusts me when kids cry when you "hard scope" them, they cry because i use the sniper the right way.

That's just another case of IW pandering to the whiny-ass minority. I've tried my damndest to snipe on these maps before, and it's such a pain in the ass. Way too much **** in the way to get a half-decent sight-line (save Bakaara). I've Qs'ed people before in absolutely DESPERATE situations, and I felt so disgusted with myself that I actually apologized.

There is no love for REAL snipers anymore; only the little mini-grizz little brats who stay up past their bedtime against mommy's rules. The map pack better change that; and I'm hoping that my side project that I've worked so hard on will make an impact as well.

Hardsniping Vs QSing is always gonna be an issue theres no real way to avoid it.

personaly i go on the basis

Bolt Action = Sniper rifle. snipe from prone with a single well aimed shot.

Semi Auto = Battle rifle. closer range accurate shots while moving around the map.

its good to see that in MW3 the sniper rifles are heavyer than before and take as long as LMG's to aim. Though the majority of maps are a bit too small and cluttered to allow good sniper gameplay.

I can't believe this argument is still going people need to get over it. I think Qs is not fun I prefer to run and gun but that is not cause to get ride of Qsing it makes people happy and they buy the game it is not going anywhere. Personally though I thing QSing unbalances Sniperrifles. I mean you take a potential one hit weapon that has the longest distance out of any other weapon in the game and make it really usable at close range..just does not seemed balanced to me but nothing I can do about it except kill the bastards lol.

My only argument to that is that now with the maps being downsized, QSing semi-balances out the game since now snipers won't be at such a huge disadvantage at close/medium ranges.

But that's just me, who knows maybe we'll have larger maps.

Good point. I think QSers are in for a surprise this time around. They have to devote two perks if they want the same effects as SoH pro (and most of them will need those advantages). In MW2, they could use SoH and SP, which were the two perks used by 99% of everyone anyway. They weren't at a perk disadvantage to anyone else, for the most part. In MW3, SP is gone, so non-QSers will be able to use Blast Shield, Assassin, etc. if they want. The QS class will need Quickdraw and SoH, meaning QSing is the only thing they can do. I think this was IW's way of making it still possible to quickscope, but only if you are willing to handicap yourself siginifcantly with perk selection. Of course, someone could try to do it without Quickdraw/SoH, but then they won't be so "quick", so it's balanced out.

These types of responses are entirely childish. If the only response you have to someone who has a thought out and legitimate complaint is to get better, please reconsider participating on these boards.

When I snipe, I use my little buddy, the DRAGANUV, the most underrated sniper rifle in the history of COD (outside of WaW snipers, because nobody ever compares things to WaW these days). I mean, it may not one-hit-kill every time, but you go use a draganuv and see how much satisfaction you get from getting a kill.

I hope in MW3 the Draganuv doesn't have the BS scope it has in Black Ops. I mean, even if it has that in real life, fun > realism.

This is my favorite COD4 S&D class:

MP5 Silencer or P90 Red Dot Sight

Draganuv

Claymore x2

Overkill

Extreme Conditioning

Draganuv is awesome

Lol @ you for thinking that Hope Scopers are better at CoD than the majority that out numbers them. Me and most likely more than a couple 100,000 or more could laugh out loud at your remark.

Lol @ the people thinking QS is broken/nooby.

You shouldn't whine just because someone is better than you. You should get better instead.

Qsing isn't only a tool. It's a playstyle in mw2 and will be again in mw3. Sniping / scoping is Op in mw2 & soon mw3 but so are basically all other classes. Smg adsing ohk rifle, is no fun to play against. Fact. Especially when a whole group does it. It will ruin s&d to begin with.

They should make sniping like it's in blops, while removing the build in SP multipliers on autos. This would solve a lot of problems. A make the game harder to get kills with all classes especially for newer / average players, thus more fun & balanced. B Give smgs fire rate rating some meaning aka make them actually superior cqb to ars, taking it there is no Ar like the FamasAug in mw3 and balance snipers by giving them power with normal ads speed thus no "quickdraw" ads speed.

you've got it all wrong. sniping is not OP, and quickscoping certainly isn't. quickscoping is a tactic, not a playstyle. it's a tool snipers use to give them a chance of surviving at close range in the same way an AR user would drop shot when they suddenly run into an enemy at close range. very few snipers quickscope every shot, or even most of them.

the only people who quickscope/dragscope more or less every shot and rush with a sniper are looking for a challenge. take my word for it, even the best snipers would do better with an AR or SMG.

if you don't believe me, make 2 accounts for mw2. do a full road to commander on each one, one using only snipers and quickscoping every shot, and a second one using a UMP or AR. unless you are a freak of nature or get insanely unlucky with matchmaking over the whole RTC, you will finish the prestige faster and have a better KD on the account with the UMP/AR.

a common complaint i hear is "you can't run around with a barret .50 cal, it ways 50 pounds!!!!11". so i put it to you: is it possible to run around with an entire trophy system on your back? is it possible to pull an RC car out of your arse despite not having one on your person? arguments about realism are completely irrelevant in this game.

even in mw2 where agressive sniping is at its easiest, sniping is the most UP class in the game. even shotguns are better, and they weren't even a primary weapon in that game. nerfing quickscoping would be like
