If you kill them in one shot they can't follow it, also keep changing position so they have to search for you.

It's all about balance if the sniper didn't have trails everyone would use it but becauuse it does only the good players use it. Also are you playing split screen? if so that's your problem screen peeking!

It's hard to dodge when theirs a exit wound in your cranium, GO FOR THE HEAD! Then they wont have time to react.

If their on flat ground it's easy dont follow your target's head that's hard put it in their path and try your best. When I do that I usually hit their shoulder instead of their head but I am close LOL.

It's not a "magical smoke trail", it's a contrail, making it more accurate.
And it would be entirely unbalanced if they took it out. A person could get in an out-of-the-way spot and snipe the whole game without anybody knowing his location.

i would loce if they took it out....See, i'm a sniper by nature.... that's all i do, i find little nooks and crannys to sniper -blam!-e out... kinda like Linda, only not as cool... :D.... but i hope they take it out, then i'd never be detectable.... *drools at the possiblity* I wish in Halo 2 you can hang from stuff.... lol i'd pull "Linda" 's all over the place... i'd hang down and snipe stuff..... so anyways.... take the trail away!!!!

yeah if they took it out my mate will do snipe more and more, i can snipe myself pretty well, but the trial makes it more fun, theres the thrill of the possibilty of being caught. lol

this is what balancing is all about, besides learn to aim for the head and you won't have to worry about it :p

ofcourse it should stay, all the snipers that say it shouldn't arent obviously feelin the trill of the game an are just glory hunters. my opinion
