A newer silence more stealthy sniper rifle would be cool. You also need to add a larger ammo clip too, because that 4 shot clip sucks. Nothing like trying to take down a guy and your clip run dry. Also you might think about some shock grenades.

In high definition baby!

Umm.... I disagree with more SNiper clips because of auto-aim.

  • 07.19.2006 10:53 AM PDT

10x more powerful would be cool.

He didnt call anyone a noob. He called halo 2 a noob friendly game. What on earth are you smoking?

As for the sniper. I like it the way it is, although night-vision would be fun (for dark levels like waterworks)

If you increase something by 1x it doesn't do anything. But the weapons in the game are all about balance, the fact that it has small clips and is not silenced and has a trail following the bullet keeps the sniper in check, otherwise it would be too powerful

If we are what we eat, then oh my God, we're cannibals.

Is there really auto-aim for the sniper rifle in Halo 2? If there is, I seriously did NOT know until right now. How do you activate the auto-aim? I'd like to try it out on Outskirts.

If you can't take someone down with four bullets, only having to hit them a maximum of two times, then you are terrible. The Sniper Rifle is fine. If you don't want to reload then go grab a Beam Rifle.

Why would you want to shock someone when you can simply blow them up? You must have the skill level of a retarded oak tree.

If you're going to improve the sniper rifle, try something useful considering it is the year 2552. Perhaps a greater magnification for the scope, or even heat or night vision modes.

You don't activate or deactivate it. It does it automatically when the reticle turns red. Basically it follows people slightly.

Whoa, deja vu. I swear I just read this 10 minutes ago.

As for the four round clip, it's merely for balance issues.. Any more and the sniper would be amazing.

Shock grenades? And these would do..?

they need to take off the bullet traces.i know that real-life guns dont have that,and it shouldnt be on there

. . ... . ......... ... . . .. ....

Real life sniper rifle shots leave behind a trail. While exxagerated for the purposes of gameplay in Halo 2, they do happen.

Yeah I hate not knowing where a guy is because theres no tracer in Call of Duety 2 and that game is full of no skilled sniper hoes but I love the Halo games because you actually have a chance to fight back against a sniper that might be camping.
