well his qs sucks cause rest of the game, he couldnt hit a wall with it in a room, even against other players. In the lobby we manage to ask him WTF u thinking with the laser.. No response, next round failed again.. he left after that.. I dont see how it help cause this guy was already a P. master and his stats look like he boosted to get there anyhow. 2 days and 274 games won.. and all his emblems was headshots.. even the wierd one that you get 3 HS with one bullet.

The Sniper Rifles do NOT need buffing!

The Shotguns do NOT need nerfing!

Go play MW3 if you disagree!

I dont know how many times this needs to be said... but the snipers in this game are fine. better than BO and worse than MW series. They should be the leaset of the buffing/nerfing concerns. i wont get into what needs to be fixed until after they can manage a lag comp fixed because that can/will change the gun play for most of us.

Why the snipers do not need a NERF. (giving them a buff would make them better FYI)

- How many times do you see a sniper go 50-5?

- How many snipers do you see with a K/D above 1.5? or even a 1.25??

- How many times do you see a sniper make some game changing play to inevitably win?

- If a Sniper kills you 3 times a game how many time do you kill him? 10? 15?

It is just as easy if not easier to kill a sniper than it is a reg gun. Sure once in a while there is a time where it seem ridiculous but that does NOT just go for snipers. Ive been killed by 2 smg bullets before, ive been killed by a frag through a wall before, ive been killed by a knife from 5 ft away.. i could go on and on.

If your the kind of person who wants to see realism.... go join the military.

If your the kind of person who says it takes no skill.... go get me a quad feed.

if your the kind of person who is just complainging about it for no real reason...... i have a box of tissues for you

sincerely,

A Quickscoper

O I don't think it's the worst, you get me wrong I love it.

When looking at stats it should be the worst.

But like you said, no recoil what so ever and that's what I'm going for mostly.

+ It's a bit of a flash back to MW2.

It's not that it's a bad gun it's that it doesn't really stand out in any way compaired to the other SMG's.

Try to remember this is an arcade GAME. if you want realism go join the military. Im sure there wont be any QSing there for you to complain about.

The Vector the worst SMG in the game?

Which game are you playing?

It's a laser beam with built in Foregrip. Hardly a shred of recoil to the thing.

donotreply@activision.com — Sun, 30 Dec 2012 15:19:47 GMT

I agree with you on that part.

It might just be my aim but with the iron sight I get more hitmarkers than with the scope.

donotreply@activision.com — Sun, 30 Dec 2012 15:12:20 GMT

there nothing wrong with the snipers in this game the only problem I have found is with the ballista with the iron sight seems to be a bit underpowered you practaticly have to get a head shot to get a ohk

donotreply@activision.com — Sun, 30 Dec 2012 15:10:17 GMT

Again.

Sniping is fine.

The weapons and ADS are slower and weaker than the MW series but not as crap as BO1

Yes I play sniper if you want to know and yes I QS whenever I really need to.

My best weapon is the B23R and I destroy most players using the Vector wich is actually the worst of the SMG's.

So don't hate on my like I'm all sniper or some stupid stuff like that.

The weapons are fine the way they are.

Learn to Quick scope like the rest of the so called Elite.

I actually Clap when I get Sniped By a Hard Scoper.

ADS needs to be reduced as well, 0.5 seconds is not fast enough.

Re: Snipers need a drastic buff!

donotreply@activision.com — Sun, 30 Dec 2012 06:51:14 GMT

LMAO really? I use bolt action snipers way more then that garbage sniper and it's garbage because it sucks not cause it's "overpowered". Also you can snipe with a FAL and the SMR your point? Also whenever I use the SVU it's more 2 shots every kill not 10 shots. Nice try trying to insult me by comparing me to those imaginary svu noobs.

Re: Snipers need a drastic buff!

donotreply@activision.com — Sun, 30 Dec 2012 06:22:22 GMT

^^^^^^^^^ Is probably one of said 'awesome snipers' running around with a SVU. It doesn't take any skill whatsoever to get 10 rounds off and hope for the best.

Re: Snipers need a drastic buff!

donotreply@activision.com — Sun, 30 Dec 2012 06:19:09 GMT

Or you can learn to adapt and stop complaining about something you can use yourself.

Re: Snipers need a drastic buff!

donotreply@activision.com — Sun, 30 Dec 2012 06:13:14 GMT

I'd say no more than 150 rounds per minute. 2.5 rounds a second. Still significantly faster than the bolt action yet not so quick that it may as well be an assault rifle.

Make he first three have no fire cap then the rest can be capped to 200RPM?, sort of like the HAMR.
