Very helpful :imu:

Squads are composed groups of people who are so untalented and crummy at BF2 that they need help to simply survive. You are not like that! You're a one man army!

excellent

seen this, pretty insane _D

Actually, I do one of those points. I sprint to fallen teammates, dodging bullets, revive them and run for cover. It's not like they get +1 death everytime they get killed. They get a death just before respawning again. By reviving them I give them a chance to escape and it's nice when medics around do this for me.

Hehe, seen this before. Funny.

Posted in another topic, but this deserves a thread of its own.

i dont understand the bit about snipers...i mean ive had games were i join in the server when the map has a few minutes left, get 2 kills, and win the best sniper class. I never see any snipers really, maybe 1 or 2 but thats it. And its almost a shame because they are so easy to kill.

Because snipers are one of the more unteamwork friendly ones. It just means you can go wander off by yourself, and snipe. *that's kind of a stereotype..some snipers travel with the team or something*
But they were just going for "BE THE MOST UNTEAMWORKING YOU CAN"

I love SA.

Same, the sniper rifles suck so hard core in this game that I'm not sure why you would ever want to be a sniper. I mean you see one or two occasionally on Strike or Sharqi, but for the most part I don't run into snipers. The sniper rifles hardly ever hit a still target, even if that person is AFK. And when they do hit, it takes like 5 shots to put them down. Sniper rifles are useless IMO.

I thought so too. Now, however, then the target is standing still, or, even worse for him, prone, then most of the time it's a one shot for me. Aim for the head and don't waste your ammo on moving targets.

 

[AntiAnto]

As many BF2 games have proven, the primary cause of death is by being killed

Hahahaha

i'd have to disagree with you there It takes two shots with the m95 to kill, and 1 if it's a head shot. Plus i've killed many a helicopter pilot while they were repairing or capping a flag. I'm not the best, but i am #1100.

 

[J_Tweedy]

Hell, it takes one good headshot with ANY sniper rifle to kill in bf2, at least it does for me :naughty:

 

[CyberPitz]

I have problems with sniper rifles : (

 

[JNightshade]

I dunno. I've gotten so good with the M95 that I can get a kill 9 times out of 10. Moving headshots, anything.

 

[Sulkdodds]

M95 though...isn't that the unlockable one that can penetrate armoured glass?

I find the sniper rifles are all right, and I've gotten some good scores with them. Last night on Dragon Valley I was hiding in a bush as three US troops got out of their boat and ran right towards me. Three shots (in the space of about a second) and one was down, another three and there goes the other. The medic manages to revive one. I shoot him. The one man left is lying on the ground, not knowing where I am, but I'm out of bullets. Reload, bang, dead. Snipers aren't that bad.

EDIT: Although actually, he's protesting about the people who are shit as snipers and just sit around doing nothing, taking pot shots at people and never actually doing anything for their team.

The sniper rifles are fine, the people that disagree just suck. It's easy to just get a nice spot and pick off everybody.. done this plenty of times and gotten in the area of 40-50 points.

Whoah, I've never managed to get that much points with the sniper rifle ONLY. How many kills does it take? Is it 2 points for kill?

I usually get 15-20 kills and the rest are kill damage assists.

once you've gotten to know the maps you pretty know the hotspots, find a decent spot and just start sniping.. it does take some skill (aim) but with some practice it's really not that hard.. my favorite sniper is the default USMC rifle, love that thing....
