the iron sight on teh sniper are going to make it a lot easyer to shoot clsoe range, but, hopeully when you click the aim button, it first goes to scoped, then when you click/press/scroll you get hte iron sights. so it taneks 2 times longer just to get teh sights up....AKA iron only has the kill!
and it should be tracked threw skill with the sniper. some one can hold a bridge with a mg and get 500 kills, but compleatly suck with something thats not full auto and has a belt of 500 rounds!
and a sniper is a POWERFULL player. he was back in ww1, and he still is in the moderen crap hole of a war were in now. when your buddys head explodes and the nearist thign to hid behind is 500+ yeards away, you will get the hell down, and stay down.
snipers were just fine back in RO1. i thing the 2 pixle to teh left, 2 to teh right needs to be fixed so iron rifles can actually shoot back.
and the m1C/D versions of teh m1 garand did allow you to look threw a scope or the iron sights, both being deadly accurate.
as for power, any rifle round i have used------30-30, 308, 270, and my favorites teh 45' kar 98 8mm, and my 43' M1 30-06 will drop a deep at 500 yards. yes even teh 30-30 will kill at that range, jsut have to hit the bugger!
go out with your 22 long rifle and shoto a block of clay. see teh BIG hole in it, that hole reprezents teh ammount of hamburger tahts now your heart, lungs, liver, and guts. 30 cal rounds to teh body are devestating!
1 shot to head, center of mass, 2 to teh legs/arms and your done. as for maching pistol/SMG rounds 1 to teh head, 2 to the chest, 2 to teh arms and your done. thats realistic, but mabey not ballanced as the SMG would jsut sprey your arm off!
