Rifleman Archive

I don't know how well this could be implimented into SWG, but it seems, since we are using a RIFLE, we should be able to snipe. Snipe being have a scope on screen, being able to zoom in and out, then shoot someone from a far away distance. They can shoot us back then we'd switch to the normal mode....that is, if they could find us (^_<. I feel this new "sniping" mode would be very cool when you go hunting to kill Snorbal or something.....can anyone say 'Snorbal Gun'? ^_^

like to see a zoom and more range...

prob never happen though...

Dont think Halo! This is not a FPS

There is skill called AIM, you can use that and you accuracy will improve. So yes it is possible to snipe, but not to Counter-Strike snipe.

You might be playing the wrong game

I for one would love this feature as a opening shot. Im an FPS Junky by heart but do also love the combat que system, its just frustrating that i have to use the lame aim special which realy numbs down the sniping fun.

As an opening shot you wouldnt turn this game into an FPS, you would need to be prone orkneeling to get the best accuracy bonuses but you are able to track and play with your oponents in your target rectical and initiate the battle with a good timed headshot. Not click a button and waited for it to hit or miss while you sit back and wait.

Although this is a very promising proposal, im sure it is not feasable in the short term atleast. This mainly being due to assigning players withdamage zones on there bodies.

Would be good to have it as a long term future development
