What if they can patch quicksniping?

[..ReLenTLeSS..]

Hey sup Soggy.

Yo, not to get off thread an all, well yea to get off thread, What happen to this site man? Its like i quit for 3 months and BLAM-O! every ones gone. What the hecks up with that?


Well lets get back on thread. Ummm, Well to tell you the truth you can quick snipe in real life, Because in real life your crosshairs don't open way the hell up. your gun is acurate where ever you point it. an second you can jump an look through your scope, You dont have to aim or nothing but its not garuenteed a kill.

But, other than that quick sniping is fake and i see were you guys are trying to go with this.......Ok maybe i don't. Lol But, Just for the ppl that can't QS, Well all I have to say is Socom:Confrontation. Game play so F'en Gay. My opinion.

Exploits are when a player takes advantage of a bug in the game. Invisible ghillies usually happened by accident, so I wouldn't consider that one either. Jamming PMN mines into the corners of walls so they are invisible? Probably. That's taking advantage of the fact that the walls aren't perfect.

Quick sniping was just an unintended form of gameplay. Zipper never expected it to be used the way it was, obviously, but it is not a glitch or bug.

...?

Quick sniping can be exploited. Here:

1 : to make productive use of : utilize <exploiting your talents> <exploit your opponent's weakness>

2 : to make use of meanly or unfairly for one's own advantage <exploiting migrant farm workers>

You can use quick sniping to your advantage, therefore, you are exploiting it.

You know, I say that they just take it out of the game. If not this game (Don't worry it's probably here to stay in S3/CA), then definitely in the next installment in the Socom series. There was no "quick sniping" in Socom 2 the way it is in Socom 3/Ca, and look what turned out to be the better game...Socom 2 (Granted this is based on mine and many other people's opinion to turn the Socom series back into it's roots).

I feel that if there weren't so many other flaws with the gameplay of S3/CA, people would never have gone to "quick sniping." The overall gameplay of the game dramatically decreased, and caused a lot of players to abandon the gameplay. Others resorted to finding other ways to play that took "skill."

To argue that "quick sniping" is the only thing that takes "skill" in the game is no arguement at all. Playing the game as a whole requires skills, as does everything else in life. Skills can be learned and they can be mastered with time.

If people who were quick sniping didnt tend to lag all over the place...then it would be fine...

but quick snipers tend to lag and bounce around all over the screen -

Can't wait to see the responses that come pouring in over this post... wow.

So Creep, since you can't wait to see the responses, does this mean I can say whatever with no repercussions?


Anyway, singling out quicksnipers as the only laggers on Socom is just completely idiotic. There are plenty other people that don't quicksnipe that lag all over the place.

Now, allow me to use an example to make you feel even more silly. Most college campuses use T3 lines to hold everyone on the server at an acceptable speed. I can guarantee you that there is more than one college student, living in the dorm, that plays Socom and quicksnipes. So, according to your post, this quicksniper, who just so happens to have damn near the best connection anyone can get, lags.

Something else that may make you think before you post. It's an online game. Ever since the very first online game, there has been lag. Some not as noticeable as others, but there is always lag in online games.

I personally have a cable connection and use Road Runner. Ever since I upgraded my internet, I have had little to no complaints about lagging. And BTW, I do quicksnipe.

With a good, detailed response like you provided, I see no reason why there should be any repercussions.

Good response. Sounds like something I would have said, but I was too lazy to type all of what you posted.

It doesn't matter if I do it then because I seem to lag no matter what....
