is the sniper rifle too accurate?

[albatrossq]

It seems to be too easy to aim with the sniper.. I get killed disproportionally many times by snipers on Fallen Fighters.

 

[shamE]

no its not I get killed by snipers maybe once or twice playing that map.

I didn't know it was any more accurate that the standard bolts.

I don't think you get a huge advantage as a sniper in this game. The steady hand and zoom feature for bolt action-toting riflemen has made them almost as deadly. The few times I've played sniper, I've not had great results.. And I was decent with it in RO1 (not great, but okay).

That's just my experience so far.

Maybe they are, the snipers sure aren't. I haven't seen any snipers "dominate" yet.

Normal rifles can already easily kill someone at 200 meters. Now you get a scope too, and you're complaining it's too accurate... wtf...

 

[BigG]

Snipers are meant to be accurate lol

I find I get go reg with the sniper rifle using the scope even on stationary targets, soon as I move to the iron sights I get kills, most likely to do with the ****ty fps you get when using the sniper scope.

It does not help that most of the realistic scope-effects shown off in pre-beta video footage does not exist in our current game.
