ok now when you snipe you provide a vital role in the survival and success of your team. if you do your job correctly everyone on your team should be able to push up and take flags rather effortlessly and unharmed. what constitutes as doing your job as a sniper? well, for one you pick off the enemy at long range which is pretty obvious. when you do it however, dont go hide every 2 seconds. shoot, put the next bullet in the chamber, and get ready for the next shot. who cares if theres more than one enemy coming. maybe get back for about a half second between shots but you better get your ass out there as soon as your gun is ready to shoot. if youve got a decent spot you should be able to see where the enemy is coming and be hidden well enough so that counter snipers have a hard time finding you. also, you should have more than one good spot. to find good spots must know the map by playing other character classes and gaining experience. id suggest playing only certain maps to increase you knowledge of each map faster at first. once you have about 3 good places on each map youre set. *note: make sure that the spots you choose are at different intervals in the map (i.e. one near the 2nd flag, one near the 3rd flag, and so on). also, you dont even really need a "spot" to snipe. i get a lot of my kills sniping while standing up and on the move. its very effective if you ask me. it might take a little getting used to because of the increased "sway" of the gun while standing but its not hard at all. know where the enemy is. you can only do this by, again, experience. gain this experience by playing as different classes on both axis and allies to get a good idea of where most of your enemy is going to be. this way you will know where they are before they know where you are and youll be able to pull of a shot before they know what the hell happened. easy? extremely. ok now finally, the one thing that aggrivates me more than anything is when i see a sniper just sitting in one spot for the whole game. i have a rule (that can be bent depending on the situation) i guess more of a guideline actually: if youve been in the same spot for at least 8 minutes, you need to get up and find a new spot and/or push up. ive got more but i think this is good for now. feel free to add whatever you want. |
That is one long paragraph...

That is one inane response. (And one inane response deserves another, i.e. this).
