You need to select to poll option on the bottom of the create thread in order to actually add a poll because it then brings you to another screen to where you can enter the poll things.

[Nuclear Cowboy]

BeeF, Blue Stealth, <anti>, -Bloodshot-, Companion Cube in no particular order.

 

[DJ TTK]

Baby jesus, blue stealth and Luke

 

[Mavwreck]

Hm...I always thought of <anti> as a guy who can basically snipe with a regular rifle, rather than a sniper. Of course, I usually don't see him until he kills me in realism...

On a related note, how much of a difference do you guys see between the "sniper" skillset and the "long-range rifle" skillset?

As with all of the guys on my (non-exhaustive) list, they are fantastic riflemen. Give them a sniper rifle and it is almost scary.

 

[wewo]

I think pretty soon Meg is gonna be on the list too, she is starting to pwn with sniper.

 

[中国人民解放军神狙手VasSili]

how about 98K, who is the master? 98k is harder control than spring sniper

 

[wewo]

Quite a few masters of the k98, I would go with Blue Stealth as the best.

 

[中国人民解放军神狙手VasSili]

which map do you guys play?
I did not see these snipers on dod_ava

 

[OORAH!!]

You need to look for a sniper that can sneak into enemy territory and kill with in not one that snipes from the safety of their on base. I also think it should just be a poll on members of EGO.

You are exactly right. I am a great sniper (especially on Donner), but not if I run around. I have to stay in cover. Doesn't have to be the sniper house, but I have limited success if I run around.

 

[ChocolateVillain]

Sniper would be Duality

k98/Grand would be Bill

How are you going to measure best sniper?

I noticed that most people who snipe are hidden in safe locations. They sit inside tiny corridors or inside safe windows looking through a tiny opening so that they are safe. Then you have snipers who move up forward but they protect themselves by their team, I call them "baiters". A baiter is a sniper (or any player in particular) who has his team move up foward and he stands behind them so that he is safe from enemies coming up front. This is defensive sniping.

But then you have wreckless snipers/players. Snipers who are not afraid to die. Who push themselves all the way up forward. Who are sorrounded by enemies on all sides and who are standing by themselves out in the open. This is aggressive sniping. In order to effectively play aggresively takes a lot more skill than playing defensively.

So how do we measure the best sniper? I would say probably by looking at how aggressive they are with the sniper rifle. The GameMe stats for DOD shows the kills/minute that a player gets. If one is good at playing aggresive than their KPM will be much higher than those who play defensive.

Another factor, but not as important, is by looking at the accuracy rate with the sniper rifle. Again the game stats will provide that information.

Consider this scenario. Suppose you have a player who has a score of 100 - 15, he got that score by hiding corners with MG and his play time is 3 hours. Then you have another player, who has a score of 100 - 40. He was playing out in the open and he got that score in 30 minutes. Who is better? Is the one who hides corridors really a good player? No, he is just concerned about his KPD. The one who is not even 3.00 is doing something hard, dropping 100 in 30.

Indeed, the mg campers or corner hiding snipers hardly ever get hackused, even if they have a spectacular KPD. The players/snipers who get accused on a regular basis of using some sort of cheat for aiming are the ones who are the better player because the rest of the players do not even think he is legit.

So who is the best sniper on your servers based on these criterion? Without much thought I would say stevenhawking. You probably do not really know him. He is the guy with the Steven Hawking avatar and plays under many different alias. He plays all kinds of weapons, sometimes he snipes. And when he snipers he is a beast with it. All him, by himself, out in the open, dropping 200 kills in 60 minutes. He does not play that much on your servers. But I know him back from BattleGrounds. He was banned so many times on their servers because of all the hackusations he would get. I remember that he once got a score of 310 - 45 on anzio in like 90 minutes. I was there to witness it. I could not believe that a player who is not camping at all can frag that hard. I never seen anyone do anything close to that. So he is not only my top sniper but I think he is the best dod player.

speaking for only myself, I split my time between Anzio and Avalanche, playing mostly Anzio because it is a much more challenging map to rifle on.

i would say anzio is pretty hard for me to use a rifle on
