Well i don't usually lose team snipers ever... Beat strongside in rumbe snipes on H2C and got my 27 in H2C from a rumble snipers game. So i can snipe a little. It's all about placement, putting yourself at a good angle. You want to keep your sniper at head so you can quick scope, and if you'r about to go around a corner, say about to walk around to the back of a base on beaver creak, scope in, keep it in 5x's, and sweep snipe people as soon as you see them. Always switch it up and move around, like don't just camp because you got a few kills on the top of big tower, jump to the spiral ramp (ascension) and look at banshee pad. DO NOT HESITATE. If you think someone is someplace, poke out and be prepared to quickly pop it on their head and kill them. If you miss, and you dodge behind a wall, and they're just frozen staring at your position. Guess what you should do? No you don't pop out and try to out snipe them, auto-aim makes that a retarded move, unless you know they suck lol. In general back down and look somewhere else and try to pick off anyone who heard the shots of your battle and try to kill them before they see you. There really isn't a whole lot of luck in snipers if you play it right. In ffa it isn't really at all, teams can be if your team is oblivious of snipe entrails and have no idea how to call out or aid a team mate hiding behind a wall waiting for cover fire. Generally with sniper games:
-Don't hesitate
-Stay by cover and check for common camping spots before crossing any open areas.
-Be aware of every angle you can be shot at, at all times.
-Don't try to line up a shot too much, just give it a precise flick onto their heads and let the massive auto aim do the work.
that should be enough to make any of you guys known snipers amoung your peers if you apply it.
Oh and P.S. I know none of you care if your holding a beam or human sniper. But use the human for long range battles when you need more ammo, and use the beam for closer battles when you need the quick double shot to finish up someone jumping away or poking out. Think about it, quick 2 shot to kill someone in quicker paced battles, and the human snipe for those longer battles where your picking people off in the open. I hope that one opens a few doors for you guys in the future.
