For those nubs out there who just want to play HPC but can't play the lag correctly, I hope this helps.

HPC Snipe Vid Tutorial



My X-Fire is qsksavageakahd, send me an FR, my AIM is xMLGxSavage if you capture your gameplay and you want to make a montage, hit me up. I play on HPC as QsK HD, so look for me.

That was pretty good, but basic. If you are going to make more, covering hogs, jumping, as well as how to calculate strafe patterns would be a next step to teach. Also, general tips on how to keep moving while sniping, and good sniper locations/places to check for enemies. Close range sniping is unbelievably helpful, as so few people can do it well.

I agree, cover jumping and sniping people out of warthogs.

Well, this vid right here may not exactly be a tutorial, but this guy filmed himself sniping out hogs and ghosts. Might offer some pointers, but its what you make of it, really.

Good tut. It covers only the basics so if you are going to make more cover the harder stuff. Also, I sent you an FR on xfire; I capture my gameplay and I'm in the making of a montage.

Pretty good, I like it. Like these guys said though, maybe a little more on strafing and such. A little more footage might help, too.

Yeah, just like those guys in Halo PC whose names are something like "I WIL PWN U ALL" when they can't hit the broadside of a barn on fire with heatseeking missiles.

Bungie doesn't see gamers any more. They see walking credit cards.

I thought it was horrible. But maybe that's just me.

That makes more sense. You should make your sig more understandable. Sorry for accusing you, I know what you mean.

*note* im not tryin to flame you here man*, but i kinda thought it wasnt any good. no read educational value- it almost seemed like you happened to accidentally catch your self getting a headshot,( a good hs though,) then decided to make a tutorial. you didnt out the distance you have to lead, you just played the headshot over and over and said stuff like "look how i play the lag". im sure that if you put more footage in, and made some effort on the project then it would be better, and thats my two cents.

I think it is kind of pointless to make a video of something so commonly known and obvious.

Some people have 32424 ping and have to learn how to shoot. Good try buddy (the dude who make the vid) but more coverage and stuff.

Exaggeration. It's very possible to get consistent 2 * bodyshots on dodging targets with sniper rifles at ~400 ping, while dodging. It's certainly a disadvantage to have a higher ping, but not impossible to play.

It was obvious that the next person to post would say this. Please post evidence.
