I honestly think the Reach sniper is easier at first (when I am used to it) but when I have played H3 snipes for some hours/days I actually find it to be easier. So let us say I am used to both, then I think the H3 snipe is easier, IMO.

I liked Halo 3's recoil mechanic, as it required more skill for follow up shots, but Reach's connection was far better, making sniping more fair.

Deutschland uber alles!

I've played around 15000 games total in Halo 3. In saying that, I've never been domed as much in Halo 3 as I am when I play Reach. In Halo 3 sometimes they dome you. In Reach they ALWAYS dome you. That means one of two things. Either there is a crap ton of pro snipers in Reach or the game is easier. I'll take the latter.

Why not stop by my File Share while you're here?

Only regret is I didn't play more of it.

If you haven't noticed by now, I'm sort of a jerk.

The hitbox is much larger in Reach than in Halo 3. So yes, sniping is significantly easier in Reach than Halo 3.

I intend to live forever, or die trying,

so far, so good.

Halo CE Sniping was the hardest, as you had to lead your shots at long distances.

We played BOARDING Action on CE a few months back, took about 30 mins fot the winner to get 25 kills.

As we were so bad. We would normally reach 25 kills in under 5 mins, back when we played Halo CE. It was very funny.

I believe every version of Halo, Sniping has become easier. But then the necode and everyone Internet has also gotten better, so this would improve sniping over xbox live.
