One thing i get annoyed with is people who run infront of your charged up rifle, JUST as u fire it, and it says u killed yoself. makes ya look real smart, while the other guy is laughing and sayin "oh well" the point of this useless thread is PLEASE dont run infront of snipers! WE'LL LOVE YOU FOREVER! this also goes for demomen, who lay detpacks only to find their own team standing on top of em. (it is funny cause your like CRAP!!) ok that is all. you can reply now.

Ever notice that many snipers back themselves up against a wall though? Kind of hard not to go in front of them in those cases. Just thought I'd point that out.

Well, hey, what can you do? If a scout runs in front of you while you have a charged up rifle and you fire, it's not his fault, but rather your fault because either--

A: You're too impatient and want to shoot the enemy too quickly
B: You're too slow and didn't shoot the enemy before the scout ran in front of you

but hey, at least he got a nice big boost in the direction he wanted to go!

I'm sure most of the time the person who runs infront of you doesnt do it intentionally. They don't know when your going to fire.

well i personally always try and go around the back of any sniper i c. but as has already been said, if your back is to the wall, its impossible to go around the back of you.

I think the answer to this problem is to not play sniper.

Also, can we NOT run in the way of an HW when i'm trying to fat it up? I'd also like it if you could avoid running into MIRVS

Snipers please don't stand in the doorways. It makes it hard for us scouts and medics to launch our cons and for others to get buy you. If your going to snip stay away from any action area, you know hide somewhere where it would be almost inpossible for you to get hurt

Exactly the case. Nothing like that is intentional. I've been playing sniper more and it's happened to me a couple of times. I can usually hear the people around me but accidents happen. Deal with it. Also if you stay out of the action areas then there is less likely the chance that you will hit people.

And for those of you that don't like snipers I say deal with it. I can only get better than how I've been playing lately. Smile for the little red dot

While we're on this subject let's not forget about the classes in NTF that can go invisible. Don't be standing in the <Doorways & Narrow areas> of a map. I don't know how many times I have been approached by an nme's spam and unable to run cuz a teammate is crouched in front of me or behind me.

i am not very good at sniping but there is a lot of good hints here on how it works.. but being backed to a wall it's hard to walk in front without being killed by the rifle...

Don't feel bad Galaderiel, I feel guilty when playing this class. I am saying to myself, "Damn I suck, I hope nobody wants this slot"... You are right thou, it's alway's good to hear eachside of the coin regardless if you like or dislike a certain class, they all have saved each of our tails at onetime or another. #Smile_colors
