Baz JJ Posted August 20, 2013 Posted August 20, 2013 Tongue firmly in cheek. Our squad had pushed well forward. The enemy were on the run. My teammates just kept saying "mate, mate....mate". Whaaaat I said, perplexed at their lack of vocabulary. Suddenly out of my eyeline, a ghillie adorned sniper emerged from a ditch off to my left, tiptoed up to me from behind and stabbed me. Bring back national service....give them some more words of description. Why didn't they shoot him instead of staring, open mouthed....sheesh
Moose87 Posted August 20, 2013 Posted August 20, 2013 Well shouldnt you hate incompetent team mates rather then snipers??

Supporters sp00n Posted August 20, 2013 Supporters Posted August 20, 2013 As the occasional sneaky-git/sniper I endorse this product or service
Supporters Airsoft-Ed Posted August 20, 2013 Supporters Posted August 20, 2013 Are you kidding? I love snipers. 90% of them are 12, have a bright orange gun and a wookie costume, you can see them for miles and they can't hit you until you're within the MED. They're practically a free kill.

Supporters Airsoft-Ed Posted August 20, 2013 Supporters Posted August 20, 2013 unless you're at FFZ during the summer If I'd known and understood the site better I think I'd have had a much better day. Have you seen my site review in the review section?
Baz JJ Posted August 20, 2013 Author Posted August 20, 2013 Well my next purchase will be a flamethrower - nowhere for the little buggers to hide - lol

Supporters Airsoft-Ed Posted August 20, 2013 Supporters Posted August 20, 2013 yes I even replied to it Yeah, just realised after posting that comment lol.
murph Posted August 20, 2013 Posted August 20, 2013 I bloody love them. You get the JBBG bright orange 13 year olds almost every week wearing jeans and a hoodie, who think they can rush the objective and 'quickscope' everyone in sight. Like Ed said, free kills. You do get a bit scared though when the odd decent sniper shows up with their quadrillion FPS beast...
Baz JJ Posted August 20, 2013 Author Posted August 20, 2013 Our snipers are about 6ft4 and it must take ages to get that cam cream off in time for work on Monday.
Stormhall Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 I've never had problems with snipers in airsoft. Most of the time I'm just shot by normal AEGs from a good distance. It's snipers in video games is what I hate. How the heck can they get headshots that easily while both me and the sniper are moving sporadically??
Spatch Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 More to the point, why didn't you pull your sidearm and deal with him?
Supporters Ian_Gere Posted August 21, 2013 Supporters Posted August 21, 2013 As a newly minted sniper, I hope to be thoroughly despised
Moose87 Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 You love snipers when they are on your team dropping blokes. I had a fire team of two snipers and two aegs. Myself included in the aegs. We held off determined attacks and slowed down the entire enemy team whilst the rest of the team attacked them from behind. The snipers were invaluable at dropping people as they approached
Supporters sp00n Posted August 21, 2013 Supporters Posted August 21, 2013 the psychological advantage of a sniper can hold people down, instead of allowing them to advance

Zyras Posted August 22, 2013 Posted August 22, 2013 Personally, i like snipers on either side, keeps the game fluid as nothing gets you hit faster than camping...
Supporters Lozart Posted August 23, 2013 Supporters Posted August 23, 2013 "camping" is such an ugly word... I prefer "tactical hiding". I've never understood when playing BF3 mostly, why people endlessly accuse snipers of camping. It's what they do. They observe, wait and then when they're good and sure of a kill, they take the shot. Maybe people confuse snipers with being a squad's designated marksman.
Baz JJ Posted August 24, 2013 Author Posted August 24, 2013 Ive noticed that snipers at my regular site dont seem to wear armbands which may explain why my team mates hesitated to shoot him when he approached me. I appreciate that it spoils their camo but do the snipers in your games where bands ?
