Becoming a Sniper
k, so is becoming a sniper online worth it? i simply love the whole idea of sniping, but is the practice and work of sniping worth the fun?

i usually play suppression games and rush with an assault rifle or litemachgun; it works fine in killing of course, but its not very strategic...

Or you can just get a sniper rifle and play because sniping is too easy in S3/CA that you don't even need to practice (unless, of course, you're that bad).

The only fun way to snipe is QSing.... Unless you like sitting for minutes at a time for one person to run out from somewhere half way crossed the map just so you can get one kill.

Steps for "strategic" sniping in S3/CA:

1. Equip ghille suit
2. Get a SASR +Scope of choice+Silencer
3. Spawn
4. Prone instantaneously

Sniping is too easy, I could snipe people the first day this game came out.

Exactly, sniping is easier than trying to spray some guy that takes 8 shots...I can do almost everything in this game and I don't understand how some people have a hard time playing this game. The game has been dumbed down big time. Long live S1 and S2!
