Sniper tips for noobs

OK i know a lot of u are going to critize me for this but hey this is what i do and if u look at my profile it shows it works.
K sniping
This is by far my favorite way to kill on crossfire. It feels great starring down the scope of a high powered rifle. Seeing ur target jumping around and trying to avoid your bullet. Then BAAAM Headshot!
Sometimes its fun and epic, and other times its a major **** off and makes u want to throw ur mouse at the wall.
Here are some key tips that i use in order to get the job done.
First off when sniping i always have a pistol as my back up. So if the enemy gets too close i can take them out with my deagle.
Second always always always move. Don't be a noob and sit in one spot. U WILL DIE! trust me ill be the one to get u lol. Move all the time. The only time i stop moving is to shoot. Then after that one split second im gone again. I rarely ever stay still.
Third learn to lead. In crossfire everyone is running around. Nobody walks they all run. So the next tip is being able to hit ur target on the run. This is something that took me some time to get used to. Pretty much play a lot of monaco and try to hit the guys charging ur base. I normally only zoom in once for this, it lets me see my target and if he has some buddies following him. U could double zoom if u like but i find it toooo close for my comfort.
4th being i have my pistol, after every shot i take i will always shuffle to my pistol after i fire my rifle. This makes me faster and more likely to escape enemy crosshairs. So after i shoot my AWM i go to my pistol. And run away to hit from another angle.
5th try not to attack from the same spot over and over. Its only a matter of time before the enemy expects it and counters. Meaning ur dead everytime u go to that spot. Move and find new locations to fire from.
6th Aim for the head if u have a weapon besides the AWM. This way there dead and u don't have to worry about hitting them again.
7th I find that single scoping is good for checking out the area and go double zoom when u find a good target to take out. This is better then scanning the area with a double scope, takes up way too much time.
These are just some basic tips and hopefully they help. -
At the beginning of the round when I go to take my first pick I know that
I could have to shoot everyone on the other team if they are at whatever spot I'm going
for first pick. I like to pre-flash/ nade as necessary.
Then for first pick I try to get the best angle possible to hit my first target to either a. escape or b. shoot more targets. If I plan on getting a pick and falling back, I do just that hit my target and get as far away from the rush as possible.
If I have to take out more people that are rushing hard I can either jump land and shoot or take my pistol out. If I jump land and shoot I can just keep changing my angles and take really easy shots on a rushing team. Then I pull my deagle if I feel overwhelmed.
If you get a kill and he was alone its a good idea to try to flank a rush on another site, or
turn around and get back to the site you were covering.
I hardly ever double scope, its really map dependent and what shots I will be taking.
One of the most important parts of sniping is being able to be on target all of the time. Knowing where to have your scope and being able to zoom in and shoot. This has to do with your mouse, sensitivity, and other factors. As long as you can be on target and be very fluid with moving and aiming where you need to, you will start to make more shots.
(Failing to think up more tips atm....) -
