Sniper rifles suck. I wish they would remove them, who agrees? They're also pointless.

I don't agree.

With B.B. gone, the passion of Bungie.net has lessened.

I'm not sure if this is the right forum....

And I don't agree.

I know it's in the wrong forum. It is not like war. And I never stated a reason because I don't have one except that they piss me off, cause they're too easy to use.

Snipers are one of the deadliest and most useful weapons at your disposal. Being capable of killing a target without giving away your position is vital, especially if you are out numbered and out-gunned. It's also useful for covering your team mates.

You think it's the best cause you can easily take out the enemy without putting yourself in danger... unless your stupid.

With B.B. gone, the passion of Bungie.net has lessened.

That's the point of sniping. To take someone out without puting yourself in danger. Its very efficient. Thats why many people like it.

THEY'RE TOO EASY TO USE! That's why I hate them. There is no recoil, no weapon sway, and no change in accuracy whether you're standing or crouching, no matter what, the bullet goes where you were aiming when you fired, even in quick succesion. Play Battlefield 1942 or Return to Castle Wolfenstein. THOSE are sniper rifles. I like Wolfensteins the best, personally.

The most awesome thing ever!

Are you questioning snipers?? You have insulted my honor! I demand satisfaction!

-slaps with leather glove-

I challenge you to a duel! Will you accept, or are you a coward?

:)

Had to say it. Snipers rule! It takes time to learn how to 1 shot kill a moving target you know.

I think that's why the sniper has a kickback in Halo 2.

-_-
Alas, weapon balance.

disgust and rage. the sniper rifle is the weapon of choice . it is an art form and when two people with sniper rifles collide its is a battle of epic proportions. i like pistols too and interloping and picking on weak people from a distance is also part of the art of the hunt as the most ruthlessly efficent player comes out on top.

What's your point? You like picking on noobs from far away? I don't know about you, but I enjoy a challenge and a real fight. Not spawn camping or getting spawn camped.

Look you little mole.
I consider your concern for snipers crap.
You should read Halo First Strike (and Fall of Reach) and understand that if it
were not for Linda (spartan sniper) John 117 (MasterChief) would be dead and we would have no Halo 2.
Linda kept the entire team alive so they could get to safety while running from Banshee's Brutes Elites and other s@!t, Linda was the one plucking off every enemy (one shot per) that was after the team. Not to forget the fact that she also did this hanging out of a banshee with one arm, injured, and being shot at while going through allies and such. (setting: Covenant Giant Ship)

If you have a good sniper on your team playing CTF that person will surely keep you alive while you score.

maybe why there putting recoil in halo 2

  • 07.29.2004 1:01 PM PDT

Well when i'm playing CTF and i'm after the flag its a good feeling seeing your sniper buddy picking off all those enemy players. Otherwise you'd need more people to take a flag.

me, along with pretty much everone on earth agrees that u are wrong. snipers are COOL!! its fun telling your enemy, "freeze! i've got a sniper to your head! don't move a muscle!" it is very efficient to have a sniper or two on your team hiding in the hills of blood gulch, secretly snipin away the enemy. besides, then wut happen to all the cool snipers like foley(desert storm)and flint(brute force)?

Speaking of snipers, there is absolutely no point to the nightvision on the sniper rifle.

i dont agree snipers are a challenge but it pays when u hit someone.The only thing i dont like about them is there four shot Mags but that is not a problem if u kill the person on the first two shots.

Snipers are what combat is evolving into. Even in WWII Snipers were deployed in at least one per squad. And now we fight with snipers most of the time, it is the smartest way to engage the enemy while not putting yourself in his firing range. And I Halo you say oh its too easy cuss theres no recoil. Well yeah its kind of unfair but the Spartans are genetically mutated to be stronge thus having a steadier aim when firing the .50 S2 AM sniper rifle. Notice how when marines fire them you see large recoil. Snipers are in modern day warfare the main way of conducting combat around the world.
