Sniper 1-hit-kill?

[Linsolv]

“distracted?” I’m not seeing the room for distraction in throwing one little grenade.

I’m pretty sure if you swapped “engineer” for “player” it would be just as true.

If you’re good with your abilities, and the other guy’s not as good, you’ll win.

That’s what I’m hoping, anyway.

I’ll play as a sniper, most likely light or medium of pistols would be inefective.
And I will play as in W:ET, being a supporting sniper for doing objectives, like covering fire or clearing the way.

I’m hypothetically so awesome at this game I haven’t ever played.

Nuh-uh I’m hypothetically way better at this game that neither of us play!

JUST TRY ME, WANDA!

I’m amazed nobody else has thought of this question yet.

[QUOTE=DarkSlayer54;284329]I’ve taken a liking to Snipers recently. I’m not sure I’ll like it in Brink… only time will tell, but it’s interesting that there’s no k/d in it.
I think I like this aspect. It will remove the chance of someone stealing your kills, and instead you’ll have to focus on causing enemy damage or doing objectives.[/QUOTE]

learn to use skill and strategy to get kills not sitting back and snipping people which doesn’t take as much skill, and about “having to focus on objectives” thats the main focus of BRINK.

Sniping is skillfull. I dont want another massive argument but it is.

Also aim wins out. You can say its all about tactics and stuff, but if one team has significantly better aim than the other. No amount of tactics will overcome it.

Also this makes me look like i dont like tactics, i love tactics, im a thinker in game, but thinking although it does give you the advantage, doesnt finish the kill. Of course you can still be usefull in brink without good aim, very useful. However without aim, you cannot defend your ability to use those supportive skills.

[ed_lolington]

im gonna have to disagree with you, apoc.
aim is great and all and it is really important but the best competitive players all use irc its a known fact

[Wraith]

although I don’t understand why you would want to be using a sniper class to begin with. It complements no class well, and really won’t effectively help with objectives (possibly defensive, but still), not does it seem like it woud yeild a steady income of XP. I can maybe understand using it every once in a while though, just as a matter of variety.

Then you clearly haven’t consider it as area denial. My friend and I are debating whether a soldier or engineer would make a more effective sniper.

I dont understand your point…

[DarkangelUK]

He doesnt have a point, he’s being the ‘wacky’ and ‘kooky’ member of the forums that says zaney, out there stuff and never really contributes.

[ed_lolington]

That’s not true I contributed somewhere around here you just didn’t read it because you had already formed your opinions about me. I’m not 2 dimensional I have real feelings and now they’re hurt.

[DarkangelUK]

That was wacky, zaney and kooky all in one!

[ed_lolington]

You’ve just gone and proved my point.

[LyndonL]

If it’s any consolation I too think you’re a troll and 90% of what you say makes me think you’re AnthonyDa’s brother.

[RumRunner]

I have real feelings.

FEELINGS?!?! ON THE INTERNET?!?!

i thought those had gone extinct. damn inconveniences that they are…

as a side note the most effective sniper would be a sniper-team. i.e. 2 snipers. one engi one soldier. that way both get buffed guns and ammo.

however such things if using standard sniper-tactics would generally only end up helping the enemy team as they would only have 1/4 less of an enemy team to deal with at the objective.

5 posts in this thread and all worthless… cos you’re like, totally ‘rad’, ‘hip’ and ‘out-there’ yo. Though granted, the thread didn’t need to exist in the 1st place.

[ed_lolington]

Once you realize that separating the wheat from the chaff with thread topics like “explain backpack” and “guns aren’t gunny enough” is a one bin job you’ll come to the simultaneous realization that my posts are as much of a contribution as everyone else’s (none).

[Linsolv]

Then you clearly haven’t consider it as area denial. My friend and I are debating whether a soldier or engineer would make a more effective sniper.

If you have to pick one, Engi is my guess. Testing will need to be done but I’d be willing to bet a shiny penny that a buffed Barrett will be able to OHK to the head of a medium.
