Battlefield 3

I am struggling with my sniper kit... What is the best sniper rifle?

That would be the L96, its so OP.QBU-88, SVD and SKS is just too much fun when you got a 4X scope and their high fire rate.

If you really wanna get your lvl up with sniper, plant your MCom near most action, e.g. Op Metro, place the Mcom in the entrance tunnel to the subways, right under the last stairs by B side, also plant TUG....This will ensure high Spawns on MCom, and spot assists.

L96, almost zero drop up to 500m.


Shot - will change my kit tonight. Hmmm... Seems I need to unlock the ACOG for my sniper... ;) LOL
 
I would also highly recommend you add the .44 magnum pistol, its got high fire rate, does 65% damage when headshot.55% damage when chest shot and its got a scope.
 
hmmm, thanks! :)

I see I am rated in the top 6% on engineer kit - Repairs per engineer minute - (bf3stats) - which pleases me! LOL...

:D

I'm loving the L96 atm. 4x or 8x scope, supressor and short range stealth sniping.

The only map I totally detest is Wake island. I was raped 1-15 at one point.
 
I am bad with map names, but there is one where some of the objectives are called:
- Highway
- Market
- Alleyway
- Square

I got absolutely gangraped last night by a whole squad of gentlemen whose genitalia resembled pineapples...

I finished up 18 for 38... :cry:

Eating through tickets like a baws... :D
 
I too had a nice ranking ..once, its long gone now, ranked 4429 skill 672 - top 1%:D
 
LOL... The more you play the more it evens out, I know... :(

Still looks good now - gonna screenie and make it background pic!!! :D
 
M40 or M98B

Are you asking?

I like the M98B because it has basically 0 bullet drop.

I run the M98B with an ACOG :D - but be warned most of the time when I play recon, I'm using the AS-VAL/UMP-45/P-90 or 870MCS
 
M40 or M98B

M40 has faster reload, double the magazine size, and slightly higher rof.

M98B has a much higher muzzle velocity, which gives it a flatter trajectory and makes it easier to sight targets at long distances, and has higher damage for body shots.

Afaik, they are equal in accuracy.

Personally, I prefer the M40 except on the largest maps. The extra magazine size makes for less downtime, and the feel and sound of using the rifle is just subjectively better to me.

I still need the knife kills for the L96, so can't comment on it.

Just got BF3 today. Pity I now have to wait for the 4gb patch to download. Can only start playing tomorrow. So frustrating!
