Change Snipers settings back to BF3 Snipers

Please change the sniper settings back to BF3 days. Back then a sniper had to have some skill. Not just point and shoot and get a kill without any skill whatsoever. It is so bad that on our server we kick 80% of snipers. Sorry thats just the way it is and will be until they change it.

I’m a bit out of the loop on sniping, what exactly is it that they changed that made it less skillful?

Not sure how it requires less skill now? BF4 the players move insanely fast and the bullet speeds aren’t really that fast in relationship to real life. Only thing that made it easier was the 100m zeroing by default. BF3 had the same bullet speeds with most rifles bolting faster. I like how sniping was done in BF2.

BF3 was point and shoot too. Not sure what your are actually pointing out here. If anything I’d say it’s more skillful to hit a moving target in BF4 since the character models are so jittery..

Does the TC not understand how guns work? You point and shoot the bad guy, that’s how firearms work ladies and gentlemen.

bc2 style is best, then bf4. bf3… naah, unbalanced guns and cannot make 100dmg at all.

The best sniping mechanics was in BC2 and dot. And btw it’s too late to ask anything to change in the game. I’m sure DICE compiled base game mechanics after 2 years of release. Right now they only polish maps and fix bugs …

Might be too much to ask, but a red orchestra style zeroing requirement for the rifles involved in that class would apply skill and i think it wont be a sniper class, itl be scout like bf1942.
