Whats with people like you who think sniping is cheap? Since when is it cheating to use a sniper rifle? I dont understand. As far as I can remember, you still need to aim and shoot.

i dont have a problem with sniping on big maps but when you snipe on terr harvester or killingfields terr it is very very cheap. how am i supposed get you when you snipe before we can even leave the spawn??? thats what i have a problem with also sitting in a bush with a sr-25 is just plain up bulls***

I understand the Harvester Terrorists, but it is possible to win on Seals, if you have some team work. Killing fields terrorists, on the other hand, I think is very easy to avoid the snipers, due to all of the walls and such.

its possible but it just shouldnt be that way and killing fields i had one game where the guy got set before we could get out the door. i dont know how he did it that fast but he did. naturally the complained about us camping

Well, I know that I am new to these forums so I would like to say hello to everyone. Now that I have said that I would like to give my opinion on this. Personally, I like to run and gun because I really am not good at quicksniping at all. I think that if you are really close to somebody that the logical thing for most people who have a sniper rifle is to bring out their pistol. I mean, if you are really close to them and miss the first shot with your sniper rifle then you have just signed your death certificate unless the other person is a horrible shot. I always bring out my pistol whenever somebody gets close to me and I am sniping because I know I have a better chance at surviving with it than with the sniper rifle. Anyway, those are my 2 cents.

Run and gun, plain and simple!

...it takes less time to get kills

I pwn snipers. M16 is way to go.

Depends on the situation, I do not quick snipe in where i run back and forth jumping up and down. I usually roam an area and when I see a target I stop and scope in to either intercept the running person or scope in on a kill. I am a very technical sniper, meaning i can do it all. Different game types etc call for different situations. Sometimes you gotta stick it out in a bush, sometimes you gotta pull out the SR with the low scope and do some close range sniping. I have too never had a problem with quicksnipers. They are OFTEN very easy to deal with and very predictable. I have seen quick snipers rip through my whole team but I have never been out gunned by a quick sniper.

if you have a good eye and some fast reflexes you will,without a doubt own and run and gun player.thatz the beauty of quickscoping but i use the M16 not the sniperrifles lol.

I have said it time and time before, the fatal flaw of quick sniping is scoping. It takes time to scope and if you are getting over ran by and run and gunner its just takes to much time. Unless your Flash.
