Not a very good Sniper..

... til today. I was just screwing around on some pubs, and I pick Sniper at the start of the map. Boy was I surprised to actual be killing people for a change. And yeah it was a pretty hard steamroll on the other team.

Pretty good run.
I also find sniping in pubs a lot easier. People actually run is straight lines . Also, you don't have scouts on crack gunning for you.

Even though it is a pub I'd say that's dam impressive for 95 ping.

I'd say from 80 - 140 ping is easier to snipe with than 5 or something. It lets you have more leniency in your shots that you wouldn't get with 5 ping Although, after 150 it starts getting too laggy and scouts are damn near impossible to hit

Quote:
Yeah. You see a scout all the way on the other side of the point and go to scope in, and all of the sudden he teleports in front of you and two shots you. True story

The guys that did run Scout on that server were a mix of decent to bad, so I did have a few bust up behind me. Still there were others that just ran straight for the point and let me headshot them.

@Sandy: Really I didn't have any problems and my ping was generally around 60-70ish most of the time anyway. Still everything was pretty lag free, with about 3 exceptions, 2 of which were favorable towards me.

But thanks for the positive comments so far.

Haha, i remember once..i was on a 24/7 2fort server, this was just after i got the game, and i was doing unbelievably well! I couldnt believe it, something like 104 points on my first ever game!
So theres me, thinking sniper is my best class....i enter another server and choose sniper... and i get pissed cos some 'noobs' called Bloodshire and Jh are dominating me..
Ofc its only now i realise my mistake :|

Grat's on the score

Some days you rock, some days you suck. You good sir, had a rockin day.

Nice score.

Is that Junction you're playing? If so, double grats, I'm not even brave enough to choose sniper on that map.
