WTF is with the sniper nerf??

[Haruna Ryou]

My scope is swaying so ♥♥♥♥ing hard after a 1 km run, ok, I know, it's normal.

I go prone and stay at one spot for 5 or more minutes, the sope still swaying like crazy, WTF? A trained sniper can recover their breathe and hold down their heart beat after a long run. there's no way the rifle gonna sway like that much. I've played as sniper for years and never heard of that ♥♥♥♥. it's like a guy without training going into the battlefield, FFS, I am playing as a real sniper which are trained for years and years like a special force and I can't believe my character is that ♥♥♥♥♥♥

I am playing in a half milsim server and I can do nothing, even using a binos for 10 minutes after a run, what's the point?

Just use your wing wang to shoot at the enemy.

Wait a minute after pulling out your rifle and see what happens. I don't snipe often, and haven't tried much since the patch (unless you count 700m shots with the Mk18 and such), but I did notice that when using a Titan if I have it out when I'm crouched the sway seems insane. After about 30 seconds it's pinpoint accurate. I'd imagine the same goes for rifles.

Also it seems the weight of rifles has been heavily tweaked. If you're using a GM6 Lynx it's extremely heavy and brings your stamina down quite a bit. Now that rifle is much more situational and you're better off sticking with the M320 LRR for standard sniping and marksman rifles for mid range.

As I said, 5 minute doing nothing on my over watch going prone with bipod.

Last night on my server, after extending the view range to 2km, I shot and killed the player I was testing with at 1876m with the Lynx and Kahila sights, while standing on top of the tall towers at the power plants, there was sway. It was swaying about 5 feet either side of him, he was also prone, we were relaying back and forth on where our shots were landing on each other, I could bearly if at all see him, but I could see the dust kick up at that range and on the 7th shot I got him useing his info and the dust to pin point where he was. He also has 17 years military training, so when he offers advice I listen and I listen good.

I think the reason a lot of server have their view range set to around 800m-1200m is to give those who dont know what they are doing or dont know their favorite gun inside and out, a chance

I have to agree with MyHandz

first, make it clear, I test it on editor, and I never play the "broken" PvP game mode. All I played is a half milsim server, so those what "view range" and "enemy what what what" does not exit as a factor.

second, I clearly know how to play as a sniper, and I've done do many 2000+m kill shot before, even 2600m, I am not saying how good I am, but to proof that I know how to time my shot, hold breath, position, and wait for the kill. and after the update, every thing got messed up,

before you say anything, go in a editor, run for 500m, and wait for 2-5 minutes, go prone and use bipod (of course use the lynx or the M200), test it your self and see how rediculous this has become

Well done at 2600m you smash the longest confirmed sniper kill IRL,and this is exactly what they are trying to get rid off, far out COD has a lot to answer for, as alot seem to get education from there, you relise any confirmed kill over 1k is enough to get you on lists and mentioned, yet KOTH/BF/COD bros are spitting out 2k plus shots after a bong and a beer, far out man, your post is a perfect example of preceptions being wrong, not the game.

Used to playing arcade shooters with tiny maps and avatars that travel the equivalent of 25 MPH without ever tiring while maintaining rock steady aim 24/7... meets a bit of realism and melts down.

No where near. Realism did need an update in this area but this isn't realistic, where it's at.
OP I suggest wearing the tactical vest police, a field pack and your uniform, just carry 6 or so mags if you're using a sniper and don't carry anything else you don't need. And if you aren't already, deploy your bipod.

i am playing on PvE half milsim servers, and I sniper for years, after the patch, the sway are like 10 times worse than before, I know how to snipe FFS

it's not just the snipers, i was playing as a unit with a pistol 2 mags and a uniform, ran about 200m arond Cherno and he was swaying like mad, not im not that fix but i can run 400m fine, a soldier would be able to smash that way better than me.

This too. a couple hundred metres and our handgun is swaying several metres in every direction. I could do a kilometre sprint and get in a head shot at 30m if I had to, most people could do that with adrenaline. These military proffessionals can't even do a fifth of that.

[Haruna Ryou]

Well, it taks method to aim at 2600m, but the nerf is too much.

My loadout:
Lynx Sniper w/ 10 APDS mags
FNX.45 w/two mags
Chest rig
Field pack (smallwst one)
With 4 FAK, 4 smoke, 2 RGO
And no helmet.

[Haruna Ryou]

I am good with more sway, but not that much after a walk
