Sniper badge IS NOT fair!
:mad: At least for people that are not good at sniping like me, and it seems to me unbalanced compared to other badges (Solder, Scout, Assassin) b/c others have backups(pistol-kill, nade-kill, etc) so we need backup for sniper badge or reduce 15% of total kills.

I had difficulties with that too, but now I can do 300 snipers kills in a day.
TDM, Prison or Ship.
I think if the sniper badge was so hard, I wouldn't have discovered my real skill at sniping: quick scoping. I'm getting kills from sniper in 0.05-0.50secs -
What do you mean by "backups?" Sniper has pistol kills.... and you do realize that you need to complete both of them to get the badge right?
He means other methods of gaining the badge, like how Soldier is Rifle and MG, Scout is Pistol, Shot Gun, and SMG, etc. And I agree; unless you're a good sniper, and/or you like sniping, then they're just too time-consuming. Hell, I've got Scout Grade B Level 1 or 2, and Assasin Grade B Level 2 without even trying because they're so easy. As for the Sniper badges... I just recently got Grade C Level 3.
I also agree that they require too many kills. If you need to get kills with one certain type of weapon, then the number of kills required should be reduced. -

Hey good point...
I should probably start looking at it this way. -

I mean 'backup' the different weapons we should use to get the kills for instance in the Assassin badge u should use malee, nades or pistols to get the kills, and Scout badge is SMG, shotgun, pistol. but in sniper badge it is only sniper gun. -

You obviously have no idea how to play with the msg then. Its so awesome in sniper matches its not even funny. You can go against awm users and just spam the msg like an uzi and get like 5 shots on the guy in the same time he gets one on you, its ridiculous. Also, m700 is a lot better then awm in sniper only. More mobility, better movement and decent damage. If you cant aim for the head just keep moving and getting body shots, most people in sniper matches cant even aim at you. Oh wait, thats you. -
I dont know how many times I've said the MSG is epic. I find it better than the AWM. Except in prison when there's 4 AWM users in each little passage.
I was using the M700 a minute ago...I find it easier to use. Its a lot of fun. 43-9 in Monaco...kinda good. -
Sniping in this game is ridiculously easy, considering all the kids who cant aim.
Scout and Assassin badge, THOSE are hard.
Scout because you get kicked if you M12s, Kriss is expensive, and all the other guns are boring and weak.
Assassin because unless you have a shovel/axe, you're pretty much screwed in pubs, unless you're really good with knife.
...But sniping is easy... -

I disagree.
In sniper only matches, AWM will always win out.
Why?
- MSG90 is not a one-shot kill.
- MSG90 has slower pull time; and if you aren't quickswitching, you aren't moving back to cover between peeks, which means you will die against a good sniper.
- MSG90, if you don't quickswitch, you cannot control when you scope in and out after shooting. If you stay scoped in, it is much harder to re-target.
- M700 has better mobility but at the cost of damage; having to go for headshots means more time accrued to aiming, which translates to a death against an AWM/DSR. Peeking for body shots takes almost the same time with m700 vs AWM; since you're moving out then going back under cover a short distance away, the movement speed of m700 hardly matters, especially if you're taking out your knife while retreating.
- M700 has better mobility but at the cost of stability; if sniping cross-map for headshots, your sheer speed of movement plus the less-than-100% accuracy (around the targeting reticule, the crosshairs do not align all the way to the reticule) will make it harder to win.
- MSG90 is much harder to quickscope with than AWM; disregarding the fact that at almost any range MSG90 requires two body quickscope hits to win, MSG90 will still lose due to the time it takes to scope in. However, if you are lucky, MSG90 has an advantage in CQB due to its high firing rate no-scoped. M700 does not share this advantage.
I can't think of more reasons atm, but there are more. AWM wins out; people use MSG90/PSG1/M700/drag in TD, in my opinion, to either show they can win with inferior weapons, and thus showcase their sniping skills, or because they cannot/are not willing to afford the AWM at 56k gp.
Also, I presume that people claiming to do better with MSG90/PSG1/M700/Drag in TD when they start trying to use it as opposed to AWM is because we, as humans, gain immediate satisfaction from trying similar yet new things. Try sleeping in your guest room's bed tonight if you don't believe me.
