All it takes is practice. There is no "real" way you have to snipe. Use whatever fuxing finger you want. It's what you prefer. If you're quicker with your thumb than your index, then use it. Just snipe. Quick-sniping in this game is nothing but practicing it all the time. The concept is pretty basic.

:-/
Yea it's sort of hard for me. But it's definityl the more funner things in the game IMO.

It's not hoping your crosshairs land on them it's timing the jump so they do go over the guy you're trying to shoot. And it's not very easy that is a ridiculous statement to say the least, there are plenty of people who can't do it even after trying for quite awhile, it does take practice. And Otters point is that indexing is harder not whether you do or don't move your crosshairs.

And your last post is ridiculous, "without sniping I'm sure everyone would go back to Socom 2" that's a dumb post for so many reasons I'm not going to bother listing them.

Sniping is very very very easy in this game especially with high look speeds. Its too easy. I turned em up just now 80-100-50 and went do to some QwIK SnIpINg as esealers say, and I completely owned. Too easy.

Umm...Yes we know it's easy.

I just started to index and have seen a bit of an improvement.

I just need to get a good feel for it now.

Well jackass why dont you hop off of OTTERS **** and quit being an *******. But the reason i say that i dont just jump and hope my xhairs land on them is because i have seen alot of quick snipers that do that. I move my xhairs in mid-air. But this thread is so we can help new comers pick whhich kind of tactic they want to use for quick sniping. So if you dont have anything POSITIVE to say then just do us all a favor and SHUT THE HELL UP!
But now back to the deccussion.

Oh yeah, because I love Otter and all... I was explaining what he said because you didn't seem to understand so i tried to use smaller words. And half of your posts haven't helped **** btw.

But basically here so i can be "POSITIVE" here and do everyone a favor I'll say this, if you want to know how to quick snipe read some of threads around if you feel like it, and then just go practice. Because in the end my opinion on how you should play a video game is worth about as much as this kids english skills.

Agreeing with somebody isn't being on their nuts.

Your post was kind of silly elite, it was all flaming but you end it with a "if you don't have anything positive to say don't say anything at all".

Funny.

Keep it clean and stay in school kids!

yea what otter said...~erg

incorrect!
when your prone sniping your usually camping in a spot where nobody would see you...what he means by stealthy is harder to find....quick sniping is the total opposite of stealthy..you usually run and jump around the entire map, being an easy target for a proning wh0re
but i am more satisfied killing a dude rushing thats y quiksniping is Da bomb
