Here are some tactics for snipers. If I left anything out let me know.
- Stay back from the front lines. You have a long range weapon so use it.
- Sniper rifles are great in defence and not so good in attack. To defend an area from distance use a sniper rifle.
- Shoot the higher priority targets first. Such as heavy MG's NCO's etc..
- Pick a high point to snipe from. This gives you a greater view of the battlefield and a longer view distance.
- Find a well covered place. Dont lie down in the middle of a field you will be easily spotted.
- Avoid making a silhouette of yourself, whether it be on hilltops, the tops of buildings or windows and doorways. If on a hill, move forward in front of the crest. Not being seen is more important than having protective cover.
- Rest your weapon against an object to give yourself maximum accuracy.
- For quick shooting pick a semi auto rifle over a bolt action. It is one hit one kill with either in the head or chest and a semi auto has a faster rate of fire meaning more kills. However you compromise the accuracy of the bolt action.
- Change your position regularly. If you try and camp in one position for an entire map the enemy will know where to look and keep killing you.
- Avoid close quaters combat. If its you against an smg your dead.
- Use your pistol in close combat. If an enemy gets close use your pistol, Its much easier to kill them rather than trying to shoot them unscoped.
- Watch for enemy snipers! The other team have sniper too and they are going to be looking out for you!
- Teamwork. If your team are pinned down help them out by giving them covering fire.
- Try and get a teammate to watch your back so you dont get sneaked up on by the enemy.
