Hello @Vindit

There will be more Sniper Rifles that will have faster bullet velocity for sure. I find SWS-10 kinda slow... Didn't like the slow bullet velocity with this Sniper Rifle to be honest.. 🙂

Lets wait and see what Sniper Rifles will be in BF2042

Hi @Vindit ,

Agreed regarding bullet speed and drop!

Certainly for me playing on the PS5, it was appearing awfully slow and it was like you really had not much punch in your high-powered sniper rifle as supposed to. Which was really weird, as you could then take an assault rifle, and there you could fairly easily mow down enemies on a far out distance.

Cannot tell exactly what was wrong, as some enemies dropped as expected, while others even on close range had to get like two full clips into them to go down. So think there must have been something troublesome with the game mechanics and the hit registration.

Fingers crossed that we will get substantial fixes to this before the full release!
