i've been playing America's Army for the past couple of days now
the sniping in that is ok but i'm disappointed that you can't zoom the scope to different levels of magnification in that game - that sucks.
i don't like that to be a sniper in that game, you first have to put up with countless hours of
not being a sniper because the sniper slots on your team will always fill-up instantly. and even after all those hours, you still don't get any guarantee that you'll get the sniper slot. that peeves me off a lot. what about people who only want to be a sniper exclusively? they get totally screwed by this game.
i also ran into a lot of very rude jerks in this game too. after they've all gotten themselves killed, they vote to kick me off the server
unless i go rushing into the 6 enemies who are still alive vs. just me and commit suicide. i should not have to commit suicide just because my team mates were stupid/unfortunate enough to all die before me.
those illegitimate kick votes really tick me off.
i should clarify my sniper needs a bit more: i don't want a game where playing a sniper means you have to struggle with the controls as it seems like your man is having a very severe seizure or cardiac arrest or something every time he looks through the scope. i want a scope that can be made to be relatively steady (ie: America's Army does this when you crouch or prone and/or deploy the rifle's bipod).
to summarize: i want a game in which i will be able to camp and snipe all day and all night long until my heart's content without having to waste my time playing other non-sniper classes.
and i also want a game in which the sniper rifle scope does not bob up and down profusely no matter what.
having said all that, do you guys still think i would possibly enjoy Operation Flashpoint's sniping?
