AT-ATNemesis Posted January 8, 2005 Posted January 8, 2005 on bespin platforms you can be on the extractor command post and snipe everyone in sight thats over on the other platform where the enemy command is!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA EVIL ME
MistenTH Posted January 9, 2005 Posted January 9, 2005 Also, the snipers can double as heavy artillery, calling down orbital strikes if you feel like being nasty. Just find a safe reload droid, and keep sending out those recons. They can travel pretty far.
MandalorianRage Posted January 10, 2005 Posted January 10, 2005 I'm sorry to suddenly say this, but I have to-- It's called sniping. Not "snipering". You don't "sniper" someone, rather, you snipe them. You are a sniper, who is sniping, who snipes people. I just had to educate you all on proper termanology. Sorry.
johninc Posted January 10, 2005 Posted January 10, 2005 Ya the freakin Headshot thing you have to hit them in the perfect spot otherwise they don't die. I hope they release a patch to change that....
Evil Dark Jedi Posted January 11, 2005 Posted January 11, 2005 Originally posted by ScoutTrooper95 How? By flying onto the top of those tall rocks and sniping from there? No. I hid in some rocks and sniped everyone that passed by.
Immolator Posted January 11, 2005 Posted January 11, 2005 I gave up trying to get one hit kills with the sniper rifle. I just expect it to take two shots to take someone out, and if they go down on the first one its a bonus. I don't find the lack of zoom on the republic/imperial weapons too much of a problem if you're just aiming for the body, and i find its better for hunting people because the peripheral vision is a lot better. The assassin droid is the best i think, if only because it gives me a warm fuzzy feeling swatting jet troopers out of the sky.
ScoutTrooper95 Posted January 11, 2005 Posted January 11, 2005 Ive prettymuch given up headshots too. I expect them to go down in two shots unless i miss. And once again I agree. I dont see a poblem with the scout troopers rifle. It seems kinda obvious I dont see a problem.
AT-ATNemesis Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 Headshots Are Easy In Endor Cos You Can Sit It TGhe Bunker As A Marksman And Snipe The Turrets A lot and the kills pile up unless they shoot u first of course:D;) ;)
FreePizza Posted March 31, 2005 Posted March 31, 2005 Being a sniper is good, both from the recon droid perspective (on certain maps not all) and getting a large number of kill shots. However, most everyday online you deal with a squad of team members who want to be nothing but snipers. Regardless of your kill count, you'll probably lose the game. A few well placed snipers can help win the game, but if most everyone plays a sniper there's no chance of winning because capturing CPs is the goal. You'll never snipe fast enough to equal the number of reenforcements taken away from the other team by just one extra CP. These past few weeks I've seen many games lost by players who insist on being a sniper all the time, or who get two people in an AT-AT when only one is needed. It's amazing to listen to teammates online when the score is 186 - 56 to your favor, and yet you have only one CP left actually think they'll win the game. They won't, neither will they stop being a sniper for a few rounds or hop out of the AT-AT or whatever long enough to capture that necessary to win CP. Being a sniper is fun, flying an X-Wing is fun, but learning how to be a well-rounded player and using the appropriate weapon for the appropriate time and map is more valuable than just specializing in one thing.
clonearcman Posted April 1, 2005 Posted April 1, 2005 People were talking about how it takes more than one shot to kill someone usually. I hope every one knows that some of the units vary in health than others. Like the Wookie is so freakin' strong and takes two headshots to kill one and 3-4 to kill it without head shots. The rebel soldiers you have to hit in exactly the right spot. The imperials die like no other though. It's kinda funny that I know this stuff because I personally hate sniping in BF. It's a pretty bad setup compared to other games.
Sam Fisher Posted April 1, 2005 Posted April 1, 2005 Ahh.... sniping is the best On Hoth I just camp by a ammo bot and get 100+ kills to 0 deaths IT is hard, but after you do it for long enough it becomes second nature.
THE BADGER: Posted April 1, 2005 Posted April 1, 2005 I wish the target rectical was a little smaller. The further the target is from you the harder it is to get a headshot. You guys know what I mean.
FreePizza Posted April 1, 2005 Posted April 1, 2005 ''On Hoth I just camp by a ammo bot and get 100+ kills to 0 deaths'' I think you might should qualify that. Are you online or offline playing with yourself? Are you playing against any humans? How many on a team? What level of play is going on...hard, medium, easy? Any AI playing? And I'm sure there're more qualifiers we can't begin to list. Obviously, whoever is flying snowspeeders or AT-ATs, or AT-STs aren't very good. They'd spot you pretty quickly cuz 100 plus kills is pretty much better than capturing 4 CPs, and that would be unusual. I've seen some damn good players online who might get 30, 40, maybe 50 kills but that's rare in a decent game. Even spawnkillers won't get 100 plus.

AT-ATNemesis Posted April 2, 2005 Posted April 2, 2005 On Bespin I Got 85 Kills Againt AI No other humans and on medium and I was a rebel soldier so does that count or not
Sam Fisher Posted April 3, 2005 Posted April 3, 2005 No, it was on a online server, no bots... *shrugs*
