To get away from a sniper

When people see a sniper shot go off next to them they start jumping all over the place. This can be good some of the time. Though i find the best way to avoid it is to run..then stop suddenely, repeat this over and over. Most snipers will put the cross hairs infront of were the person will run and wait for them to cross it, if you stop it puts them off they go back to see were you and then you start running again. It does work especially for times like getting across the bridge in the mixer.

Try it

yes that works sometimes and i find doing the dolphin (quick dive then back up move) works best.jumping only delays the inevetable i feel.ive been sniped jumping more than anything hence ive stopped the jump over and over.


example of the dive- on nightstalker if you start on the right side if you dive when you come out of that open area before the broken down house 9 out of 10 times he will miss if you do it right.all stages have this same effect once you get it down.

ya if you have mastered the quick prone dive then i say its the best way. It is soo easy to do and almost no sniper can pick you off as long as you get up quick.

If you acn get a shot off on him, take it. The sniper will be lying prone, towards you, so you'll get a headshot. If not difficult taking one out if you see him seconds before hes going to shoot. Anyway, that stop and go technique might work good also.

-Best way to dodge a sniper = get behind something solid (i.e. not a tent or bush).

-Best way to dodge anyone = see above statement.

I think the best method of dodging is mixing up stopping, diving and jumping. You'll keep them guessing and it will give you time to get behind something.

-Rabit Style: geting prone/crouch/prone/crouch...But runnin, if you do this in 10 seconds he gonne kill you but, if you do this, and jump, you gonne save your ***.

I think what, is easy to kill a sniper, and to seehim, but a slient killer(M4 sd)>>>NO!
