On Most Map lik 2 Fort Well and Acrop...... the best way to kill a sniper is conc up to the ledge where they r stationed. On well if they r on ur roof, just go through the tunnel underwater in ur base... from there underwater conc on top of ur roof. have a nade primed if an sg is there. if its just a sniper.. there an 80% chance he wont see you because of his scope. whip ay ur cbar or caltrops and have some fun:D

I think its much more to infect them since I learned to conc.Most snipers are so stat hungry they will go into respawn for health and spread the love On 2fort you can kill like 5 or 6 snipers easy as a soldier by tossing a couple primed nades up on the sniper deck and then rocket jump up and rocket/shotgun them silly when they come back out.Sitting underneath the sniper deck as a pyro and IC flaming and napalming them into ashes is fun too.Much harder to do on Acro because the yard/map is so big.

Against Sniper - what's really fun on acrop is to be a scout/medic and circle them while firing your nailgun. It's hilarious! I've done this to so many people, but i still love it! HAHAHHAHAHA! Plus a single nade will kill them...so prime one, jump in their field of vision and kaboom. But don't get too cocky sneaking up to them....as soon as they get hurt one bit they will whip around, and since you're so close to them (assuming you have slot1 weapon out) you fill up their screen and most of the time you will be fragged.

You know how as scout/medic you can get the flag, conc out of the flag room and run out the side/alternate way? Most of the time there's a sniper with his back to you looking out into the main field. It's fun to tag em with a medpack/crowbar hit once and conc out of there, leaving them flabbergasted



as sniper - A TRUE SNIPER NEVER USES HIS NADES OR ANY OTHER WEAPON BESIDES A CROWBAR AND HIS SNIPER RIFLE! AUTO-RIFLES ARE FOR WEAKLINGS!!!!!!!!!

P.S.- FLABBERGASTED IS THE COOLEST WORD EVER!!!

I always hunt snipers, I usually want to make their life as miserable as possible (also providing a safe sniper-free game for my teammates) and what I always use the infect/grenades of the medic.

Since the medic is quick, doing unpredictable movements (side-stepping, hopping at weird times) makes the average snipers miss enough times so you can get close and infect/throw grenades.

Against some of the better snipers, concussion grenades are best to fly near them, then infect / grenades.

It's also fun to throw a concussion grenade to screw up their aiming then infect them as much as you want to.

Personally, I love when I find a sniper zoomed in focusing on his favorite campground... if I'm a medic, I whip out the supernails and put a few dozen of them right into the back of the sniper's head... kills 'em *real* good

The most effective way to kill snipers as other classes is usually well timed and "angle bounced" grenades around the corner, over the wall, down the hallway, whatever.

Or, if heaven forbid, you decide to be a sniper yourself, and since you already know the NME's favorite campgrounds, then you can camp overlooking where he camps, and after a few headshots in a row, the NME might just decide to be another class... then as soon as you die, you just go and switch back to whatever class you were... no more sniper to worry about for a while

The best thing in tfc is when you kill a sniper so many times that he changes classes

Sniper hunting wastes time - let them miss.

Actually I like to hunt them if I go O once you kill them once go quickly to where they come out and kill them again.A good sniper can really slow down an offense so if you can keep them pinned down it helps out.It's fun to when you kill them repeatedly close quarters over a short span they get to know the feeling of dying with no chance to fight back.Revenge for every player that they have sniped IMO if more people did this the less effective snipers would be.By avoiding them you let them continue to live,kill,and annoy everyone.
