Snipers need a drastic buff!

Posted by FixBlops2 on Dec 29, 2012 9:13 PM

Snipers need a buff and here is why. They have build in Thoughness. Are uneffected when using a Silencer (damage/range is same as without a Silencer).

 

And nerf the Shotguns even more please, its so unfair when a Sniper loses to a Shotgun in close combat.

    'It's so unfair when a sniper loses to a shotgun in close combat'

     

    Now, don't laugh at me here, but, have you noticed that your local armed response police haven't used sniper rifles to storm a building? Nor has the Army ever used a L115A3 to do the same. Not ever. Never ever. They use shotguns. And SMG's. Could you actually imagine it?! Especially bolt action. Would be well worth a watch that would.

     

    I bet your one of those guys that run around with a SVU-AS getting off 10 rounds in 2 seconds thinking you're an amazing sniper.

     

    You should read a book called 'Fry The Brain: The Art Of Urban Sniping And Its Role In Modern Guerilla Warfare - John West'

    Snipers need to be nerfed in a way so people cant use them like a semi-auto gun its not even close to realistic.

      I've said that in one of my other posts. Should not be that accurate when firing that many rounds that quickly. Even with low recoil stats the SVU-AS should bounce like a pimps lowrider on speed at that fire rate.

      realy only an issue with the svu, and that is the most mediocre sniper. terrible at getting OHK's. so it needs a high fire rate to get kills at long range.

        But you shouldn't be able to use it like the FAL. It's shouldn't be an overgrown assault rifle.

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

            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.

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

      ^^^^^^^^^ 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.

        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.

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

       

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

    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.

      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.

        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.

    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

    • dweez1988 Apprentice 764 posts since

      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.

    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

    The Sniper Rifles do NOT need buffing!

    The Shotguns do NOT need nerfing!

     

    Go play MW3 if you disagree!

    funny thing i saw is somebody put a laser on there sniper thinkin that will help him shot off in close quaters. It failed and got a OSK in the face by a TAC pistol. I was laughing the whole time.. really with a laser attachment, WTF ya thinking..

      The laser is actually pretty usefull for QS.

      You have like a contstant red dot in the middle of your screen.

        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.
