Sniping..

People wanted the guns to behave more realistically and now that they do, you wanna cry that it doesn't require skill. Bro, Peak 13 was like all of 600m or so from end to end. Actual useable lanes of fire were about 175m max. Stop crying. Dice has already said we are getting BIGGER maps. 

While I agree in principle, I do think that KamiDOTexe is correct that the maps were small. I'm okay with the bullet drop as it currently stands, what I would prefer to see is a reduction in the vapor trail and an overhaul of the glint to factor in concealment, positioning, and exposure to a sufficient light source. 

Too soon to be saying stuff like that when all we've played is tiny maps. They need to get rid of the ridiculous glint mechanic.

We'll be getting 3 "big" maps out of the 9 based on the info they released on BF6 website.

My issue for the sniper rifle was that garbage short dot reticle and LPVO that belongs on a AR or DMR and not a sniper rifle.

Funnily enough, I felt perfectly comfortable rocking the 4x ACOG on the bolt action, due to the map size.

And as far as the DMR, they are far too weak in their current state. No reason to choose them over a sniper or any other gun.

Brother, you are absolutely correct. I also don't know if it was oversight or what but the SVK DOES Not belong doing two hit headshots. 

That thing fires 8.6x70 (.338 Lapua Magnum) Which is a LONG RANGE Hunting/Sniper rifle round. 

The M2010 ESR fires .300 Winchester Magnum. If the M2010 kills in a single headshot, the SVK needs to kill in a single headshot as well. 

8.6x70/.338LM

My biggest complaint was how unintuitive the attachment point system is on snipers. The fact that I can't spec out my gun to use a large scope, 8 round magazine, suppressor, bipod, and DLC bolt really hinders the fun I have playing as a defensive/suppressive sniper.

If we want realistic damage models we’ll just have to play hardcore when it comes out.

In the core experiences if the semi-automatic rifles one-shot headshot then the bolt actions are obsolete. There is a middle ground that has to be found. I believe that middle ground lies in reducing recoil and buffing rate of fire. 

One key think about this is that in previous battlefield games the bullet drop was greately exadurated. Gravity affected bullets more than they should in order to make the elevation adjustment more immersive and noticeable. So far it seems they have gone for more realistic gravity for projectiles, might be what you arent expecting or used to - but the gravity on bullets in past titles was lying to you
