Subject: Sniper body shot + br head shot

Recently I started using a tactic where I shoot for the body with a sniper and then shoot him in the head with the br for the kill. I was just wondering if anyone else does this. Do you guys consider this to be a nooby tactic?

Personally I think it works great because I can get my sniper shots off much quicker when Im not worried about hitting the head. And because its quicker, that means im much less likely to get hit and scope out automatically. Plus, a br headshot isnt a big deal for me.

i do this all the time. the key is to aim a little lower than the head. most of the time you will just get the body shot but once and a while you will get the head shot. its also a lot smarter than wasting two shots of your sniper ammo.

its like expecting a child to be able to understand all the mechanics of driving a car. people dont expect them to know anything at a young age. this is also true for halo 3 rank.

I do it from time to time, especially when the score is close. Every kill counts.

These type of children shouldn't be playing games rated mature by the ESRB.

Wow, Really? I have no words for this.

On topic OP I'm not that great of a sniper so I'll go for the body shot the majority of the time and clean up with the BR. If you cant snipe, then thats the way you should do it

Jeez guys chill. I just wanted to make sure im not being a complete noob since since between social and low level ranked (Im never gonna be searching 50 high haha)all the noobs I play with either shoot for the body and miss ten times or they think any sniper sucks if he doesnt aim for the head.

And maybe I do suck, but at least im not that a$$ who flames lower ranks on a freaking forum just for asking a question.

O and thanks to the one dude who actually answered me seriously

Ten bucks please
edit: forgot to quote the guy who said 10 buck op<13

I spoke to God today. He said trust in Him. All others pay cash

I usually go for the headshot but if i get a body shot i always pull out my secondary (which is ideally a BR) So that im not wasting any valuable sniper ammo

And my five year old knows the basics of how to control a car, but not how to start it.

And btw Im 17 and I have my license so I actually know how to use a car so stop trying to make that analogy in a way thats directed at me.

"Team shoot the wraith!"
"What's a team shoot and what's a wraith?!"
"It means we all shoot at the big blue thing together!"
"Okay!"
*starts betraying blue teammate*

A bit more than a year ago due to the fact that I refused to play anything other than Team Snipers and BTB, I got quite good at sniping.
So I did that all the time. Then I spent half a year playing COD.
Now I"m so bad at Halo I can only do that by hardscoping when I see someone on my radar :/

O and I love how all you dudes who flamed me dont have a linked gamertag. Seems like your hiding something.

And the brigs too. If your gonna flame someone about being bad you should at least be a 50.

Anyways Im done here. Thanks for any (semi) serious answers.

I love how your still upset. We don't need to be a 50 to flame you. We just need to be better.(your a 36 btw, so its not very hard) On top of that, you created a thread about BRing someone after a sniper shot. Its not exactly rocket science kid.

And how do you know that nobody is a 50? This is my main account. I practically have 3,000 exp on this account, its not exactly my fault that it takes several games to rank up compared to others.

If you think your better than me, feel free to add me. We'll have a 1v1, you'll get wrecked. I'll cap it, edit, put on YouTube. Then i'll post it here and send a link to everyone on your friends list. Sounds good.

Thnx for the awesome sig Smyf!

and now it is my duty to completely drain you

I'm usually an idiot and like to go for the sniper spree when I grab snipe, so I'll usually waste another bullet finishing off the kill if I land a body shot.

However, if I am near the end of my sniper ammo, or am trying really hard to win and think I have enough time for the switch, going to the BR for the clean up is always a legitimate option.

Yeah well a quick look at your stats shows that your better than me. Its not exactly rocket science kid. I know you would beat me 1v1. Dude I just wanted to know if not aiming for the head with a sniper makes me even more of a noob.

But if you really need to flame me to in order to actually feel good about yourself, then ill let you be successful at something for once in your life.

And im not upset, I really dont care actually.

And that was my real last post here. adios
