Sniping

I love sniping, especially with the intervention. I always run around quick scoping getting montage clips . However, it gets pretty tough. With hitmarkers, you can shoot someone (even twice) with an Intervention FMJ Stopping Power and they can turn around and kill you with an overpowered assault rifle or stab you from 10-15 feet away thanks to commando. Getting three hitmarkers on someone with painkiller is SO annoying. It's seems to be getting worse, and I'm actually thinking of going back to CoD4 and BFBC2, barely ever playing MW2. I don't know. Sniping to me is a fun challenge that is the only way to have fun in MW2 and some other games. What do think about sniping in MW2? Do you snipe? Do you think snipers should be 1 hit kills? Tell me what you guys think.

ive gotten 3 hitmarkers on a guy using intervention, stopping power, fmj. and he didnt even have painkiller, and he turns around and kills me with the ump.
i hate that.
ive hit people centermast and gotten hitmarkers.
i think chest, neck and headshots should be 1 shot kill. only getting hitmarkers on limbs.
thats the way it supposed to be, but the projectile collision physics are thrown off alot by ping. so its kinda eeeh.
im going to keep trying though.

Intervention stopping power is 4 hit kill on a guy with painkiller. WTF.

Intervention bullet to the chest guy lives

throwing knife to the foot= dead???

exactly what i think

Considering most of my hitmarkers are shots through a surface or i shoot right when the opponent moves and i shoot like his limb's, No, hitmarkers dont bother me as much as most.

I think its because the likes of the sub machine guns and the assault rifles have little to no recoil meaning people will just spray you down with them. If this isn't the case then it because of all these stupid explosions going on. The intervention and barret should give the damage they do alone without stopping power but to be honest if your going to snipe them in their little toe sure you should get a hitmarker but you definitely shouldn't with a shot to the back.

Yeah, the smgs and ars have almost no recoil, making them amazing. Also, you're right about hitmarkers in fingers and toes, but if you get hit with a 50 cal bullet in an arm or leg, that limb could go flying, meaning that the person you shot shouldn't be able to run away or turn around and spray you

true, you could get a hitmarker like this, but what about when using FMJ and getting a wallbang hitmarker?
