I rarely snipe in games. At least not long-range scoped shots from cover. I'm very much a medium-range shooter (except when I close in). I'd use the DMR or BAR (depending on the game) to run-and-gun headshot in Halo (at least when the pistol wasn't more effective), with the Assault Rifle as my usual alternate weapon. In Destiny I mainly stuck to a Auto Rifle/Fusion Rifle loadout. In Borderlands I tend to stick to pistols with submachine guns as backup. This is also my basic loadout for the Saints Row games (with shotgun as a fallback choice for some insane end-runs)... at least until I got the infinite ammo rocket launcher. GTA was mostly the same - my weapon of choice in GTA:O was the auto pistol. In Mass Effect I usually just stick to pistols, unless I'm playing Vanguard, in which case I'm shotgunning. Same with Fallout - I mostly stick to pistols or shotguns (with Hunting Rifles an option at medium range). I rarely play a ton of shooters so I can't think of all that many other examples. But I'm hard-pressed to think of even a single game where I went with sniping as my primary style. Often it worked out synergistically - two of the people I tend to play shooters with do snipe - so in games like Halo or Borderlands I'd usually point out/trade them sniper rifles if I found them while they'd pass me the shorter range weapons they didn't want. Then I'd rush into combat and tank enemy attention while they lined up shots from a distance. --- "Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76 "POwned again." --- blight family ... Copied to Clipboard!

I loved to snipe with the engineer's rifle in Battlefield 1942. It was the same rifle as the sniper, except with iron sights instead of a scope. But as an engineer you got mines, explosives, the repair ability, and more ammo than the sniper. --- Minutus cantorum, minutus balorum, Minutus carborata descendum pantorum. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Usually don't like the more hardcore sniper mechanics of something like Arma 3 w/ACE or Sniper Elite hard mode, but I do like something that deals in "partial realism" where you need to adjust your aim for bullet drop and windage. Point-and-shoot sniping feels kinda lame to me, unless you're sniping at close range. I do enjoy the Sniper Elite games, but not on the harder difficulty settings --- https://i.imgur.com/ZwO4qO2.gifv "you just schlorp it down and use it one handed" - captpackrat ...

Headshots all the way. I don't play too many shooters, but it was so satisfying in Borderlands 2 to zoom in on some unaware dope with a high-crit sniper and OHK him to soften up the base for invasion. BL3 really dropped the ball on snipers though- It shouldn't take 4-5 headshots to take some regular enemy out, especially considering max sniper ammo is on the small side. ParanoidObsessive posted... In Borderlands I tend to stick to pistols with submachine guns as backup. In BL2 I usually go pistols and SMGs too, BL3 though it's usually Shotguns / ARs / and SMGs. In both games sniper rifles are only used for very specific times. I think the best sniper I ever got in BL3 was the Monocle but it's been awhile. --- Equin 2: The Warren Peace- Out now!

I usually tend towards snipers in most shooters I play. I just love the high damage they do, and am usually pretty accurate so that makes up for low firing speed. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Lokarin posted... > In Mass Effect ... shotgunning If I'm playing Vanguard in ME2 and ME3, I'm basically just constantly spamming Biotic Charge and occasionally unloading with shotgun - I won't even carry another gun in ME3 because I want my recharge speed to be as fast as possible. To be fair, though, I don't play on high difficulty, because I play those games for the narrative more than the combat challenge. In ME1 I'm using pistols 99% of the time. --- "Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76 "POwned again." --- blight family ... Copied to Clipboard!
