The bad netcode is the only problem I have with the game

also I would like to see more multiplayer factions. Like the US army fights the russian ground forces and the marine corps fight the russian paratroopers

also solder customization like choosing skin tone and facial features for your soldiers

Ya, that's what everybody wanted for Black Ops, and look how that turned out.
Quite honestly, that in particular I wouldnt care about, but I guess some people are fans of that much depth into the game.

For it to do its job and for the people who don't know... be the COD killer!

there is no need for a cod killer because cod will kill itself.

an gun that shoots 12 frags rounds,or getting more points for dropping ammo packs

i would like to see them bring back BC2 maps

CoD doesn't need to be killed for Battlefield to be successful, they can both keep doing what they're doing and you just play the one you like, hell you can play both if you're so inclined.


Back to the topic; get rid of the glint on 12x scope, I'm glad they did something to nerf snipers compared to BC2 but the glint just pisses me off. You spend too much time worrying about other snipers and not enough on actually contributing to your team seeing as you're most visible to other snipers. Or at least give me one shot kills to the chest with bolt actions, shit is ridiculous.

Ahh I knew I'd cop shit about that comment, let me defend myself please?

Just as a preface this is a non-snipers point of view, I rarely snipe, and everything I say here is just oppinion.

Everyone whinges about how snipers are a pretty useless class in terms of contribution to the team, I agree. I will rarely get on the top half of the teams scoreboard using recon, though that's partially because I'm not all that great with a sniper rifle due to lack of any tremendous amount of skill with it and infrequency of using it. But I think it's fair to say that generally speaking due to the objective nature of the game snipers arent the best class to choose in terms of contributing to your teams victory. Glint doesnt help this.

All glint does is allow other snipers to see each other. So instead of focusing on important areas of the map, (M-Com sites etc.) you're too concerned with other snipers because if you dont get them they'll get you. Yes this has always been a factor for snipers whatever game but glint amplifies it as it's that much easier for snipers to see each other.

As for chest kills, disregarding the obvious, that being what a sniper round will do to a man regardless of where it hits, it just makes sense as a game mechanic. The areas of the map where the most action is taking place is also where people are generally on the move. Yes no shit it would be easier if I was better and could get headshots, thanks for that Rhymez. But I'm not so if I were sniping (which I occasionally do) why would I target these areas where everyone's running around in some bat shit cluster fuck if it's unlikey for me to get head shots? Even though this is probably where I'd be most valuable as a team member, I'm much more likely to target someplace else, where you've got people being relatively stationary.


However I'll admit I'm probably being pretty idealistic, chances are if they did make these changes in addition to increasing the effectiveness of a sniper from a team point of view you'd also see an influx of others using recon and I'd be back here bitching about how there is too many snipers and not enough people playing the objective.

So basically, you are asking for the game mechanics to be re-written just because YOU suck with snipers?

I'm with IRHyMEzx on this one. Get better at using them and aim for the head. No one is forcing you to use the snipers, plus they aren't all that hard to use. Learn the bullet drop and range of the snipers and they become as usable as any other weapon.

Also, I want to address these statement right here:


I don't see your problem. You see the glint, pop the guy through the eye socket and then go back to watching the important areas. It's not like you are engaged in a 5 min sniper duel or something.



Because you just took of 70+% of the enemy's health, that's why. You may not get the kill, but you may have just saved your teammates life if he were to come across that enemy in said clusterfuck. It's not all about you and your kills, it's about you and your team and doing what it takes to win.

glint doesn't mean anything to me cause i spam the spot button all the time

I am doing the premium recon dogtag assignment with the L96. I have like 16 kills with 8 being headshots. Its not that hard to lead the shot when someones running.

Also when you are shooting into that cluster, you are giving a pretty good bit of suppression. A good recon player can lock down a route with suppression fire alone. Its not all about kills, you have to think big picture, not be Bob Lee Swagger all the time.

Can we clear this up? As I said I rarely snipe, because I'm pretty subpar at it, not horrendous, I can hold my own and usually come out with a decent k/d but actual contribution ot the team is minimal, I acknowledge this, so therefore I tend to leave it alone. My issue is not that I suck however it's that it's very difficult for snipers whether it is me although more frequently other people on my team to have a positive effect on the teams standing that is equal to if they were using another class.

I don't care if it's more points for spotting in order to encourage it(though that goes for all classes)but something should be done to make sniping a more viable team player option. As opposed to something that just boosts your own k/d.

Sniper_fun wrote:

Ok fair point I agree with that


I still stand on my point that something should be done that allows snipers to contribute more to the team or encourage them to contribute more.

I'll do something that not a whole lot of people do on the internet and admit I was wrong. Greater chest multiplayer is not the answer, I acknowledge that.

Recon is actually a very powerful class. I think people forget about the motion sensor. That thing if placed correctly will fuck over anyone who comes near. Literally as soon as you know the direction someone is coming you have at least 80% chance of winning the gun fight just because you're ready and hopefully got yourself if a better position then they are.

As for all this sniper rifle whining, just use a god damn PDW. Hell the P90 is pretty OP and used with a silencer and the motion sensor people literally don't stand a chance!

As for sniper glint, it takes training but eventually you'll give up trying to shoot that sniper 800m with your pistol or whatever else you may be using..

Recon is powerful if you know how to use it.

It is, but most of the snipers on the game like to be 800m from objectives.

they need to bring back the tracer dart gun.
