Your rankings of the CF Snipers

SkyDMaster · February 2011

I'm mainly asking for how you view the snipers compared to each other.
My Views:

1st: AWM(all varients) - One shot kill to everywhere but the legs, decently long reload(not too long), double zoom, fairly easy to learn bolt action rythmn, slow movement speed, long switch to animation

2nd MSG90 - Semi Auto sniper, does damage in the low to high 90s constantly, fastest fire rate of all current snipers, fast movement speed, fast reload speed, fast switch to animation, crate gun

3rd PSG-1 Red Dragon - Semi Auto sniper, large mag size, medium reload speed, good fire rate, coupon gun

4th DSR-1 - One shot kill(same as AWM), long reload speed, only one high magnification zoom, ability to remain in scope between shots, decent fire rate, slow movement speed, long switch to animation, very expensive

5th Dragunov - can one shot kill(not consistantly), medium reload speed, fast bolt cycle between shots, double zoom, can be inaccurate, decently accurate outside scope

6th M700 - Two shot kill, large mag size, double zoom, very fast movement speed, fast bolt cycle between shots, very accurate outside of scope for a sniper,free/default sniper

7th PSG-1 - "Semi Auto" sniper, medium reload speed, delay between shots in scope/slow fire rate, temp from crates(alaska's PSG-1 is buffed to be able to do one shot kills)

Now tell me you guys opinions on these snipers and if you agree with me or not.

for me:

1. awm camo/awm xmass, although the xmass make you a big flashy target.
2. awm red/reg awm ( u don't really need those extra ammo's that much, so i consider them equal enough. also got the big red target delima for the red.)
3. dsr, its not too bad, stats wise its better then the awm, but it feels weird.
4. msg, shoot **** fast.
5. psg, pretty much a downed msg
6. m700. 2 shot kill and a bit slow, but constant.
7. dragunov can be a 1 shot kill or a 2 shot, making it unreliable. if it can 1 shot, it as good as the awm, if not it become a m700 with less accuracy.
8. psg red. there's no way i let u go away with this. this psg red is horrible!

Wat? The Alaska psg is buffed up? Is this true?

Yes the Alaskan PSG-1 is buffed. This may have been done because the Alaska map was originaly a preview of the PSG-1 and to make people want to try to get it.(you used to be able to win it for perm from crates)

1st: Dragunov - 1 hit kill, reliable as much as the guy using it (if you fail, it fails), light for fast movement, quick fire rate, decent reload speed

2nd - Awm, 1 hit kill everywhere, but quite heavy; decent reload (Camo or xmas for faster reload), fire rate not very impressive

3rd - PSG-Red dragon - weak, but awesome fire rate making it gatling amongst the snipers, not good for constant switching, but damn funny when leaving scope on

4th - M700 - 4th for me, if you tend to do hs, it would be on even higher place.. Fast, precise, good reload rate, very light

5th - DSR - 1 hit kill, but heavy, scoping on is slow as well as reload

I dont have much experience with regular psg and msg, so i skipped those two..

Omega3acid · February 2011

1st: Awm-camo (faster reload speed. 10 bullets. good for quick scoping)
2nd: awm-Red dragon (10 bullets. same reload as awm normal.)
3rd: awm (1 hit kill at all ranges except to the legs like all awm variants)
4th: DSR-1 (single zoom that is half way between the first and second awm zooms. Hard to get used to. good no scope potential)
5th: m700 (faster fire rate as compared with the awm. 10 bullets. 2 hit kill with little to no recoil as opposed to awm)
6th: PSG-1 (not a perm weapon. 2 hit kill unless at close range tot he gut, semi auto. Reload longer than the awm.)

I did not list guns that I have not used yet.

Borg0vermind · February 2011

AWM - Half-Noob gun 1. 1S1K for anything except legs. Anyone can use it quite OK but it takes some mastery to be proficient with it. The best sniper vs sniper gun.

DSR-1 - Half-noob gun 2. Camper's gun. 1S1K. If you need to guard/camp in an area this is the best choice.

Dragunov - The weapon of the elite veterans. 1S1K only if you master it perfectly. Too expensive for what it can do compared to the AWM. It's intentionally underpowered.

MSG90 - Not tested enough to have a relevant opinion about it.

PSG-1 - Good for EM maps where you need to move quick and efficient. Not viable in sniper clashes.

M700 - Not viable in sniper vs sniper, but can be very annoying if you properly use it to headshot in S&D.

Pure_Fear · February 2011

Awm camo imo is the best purely for its quick scope ability but i cant wait for barret 50.cal

bongbay · February 2011

for me alway the awm will be the nummber 1.

the_fLame · February 2011

awm best best best :b

DR4FT · February 2011

1st: AWM: Best sniper overall high accuracy, 1 shot kill and fast quickswitch
2nd: DSR: Camp snipe rifle, 1 shot kill,semi-auto but very slow reload and quickswitch
3rd: Dragunov: Not reliable, sometimes 1 shot kill and not 100% accurate

The rest is crap imho; snipers should be 1 shot kill weapons
