I really have never used a thermal scope on any maps unless they are night, but it sounds like a good plan for harvester and i bet it would come in way handy on something like Blackwoods, another good idea which is something i was using the other day in a no cross game at devils road, my clan buddy got a thermal and looked for the red and when he saw it he called it out and i would nail them with my high scope

A buddy of mine was last man standing on Storm Front Demo. He was on Juliet island Facing Echo and Foxtrot island. He was facing 7 opponents and he was quick sniping. He killed them all & I wouldn't believe it if I didn't see it. Hell I seen it & I still hardly believe it. He was not glitching. He was using a Bolt Rifle with a High scope (I believe) running jumping scoping in & pulling the trigger then killing them. I have been practicing this technique for months and still have yet to yet become a novice at it. But i've seen a couple of masters. often times at the end of their crosshairs.

I got a question for all the other good quickscopers out there...you guys switch from high scope to med scope on the m80's in small maps like atendra and fault? I tried switching from my high scope to a med scope and I just sucked horribly (went from 6-2 to 8-11).

There should be an option for spawn invincibilty or something. The host would be able to set it and give the person like 3 or 5 seconds to move before they can die. Most games have this feature incorporated in their games already. If there is a feature like this already, well, I just missed it I guess!

i agree with SGT Miller. A mobile sniper is WITHOUT A DOUBT the most effective killer in the game. if another troop aquires your position you're ****ed, unless you're adiquate with a hand gun.
