    there should be an achievement for how many shots you have lead. That way sniper cannon noobs will HAVE to switch to another weapon

    They also lead their shots, just not as much as other players ;)

    The only time you don't have to lead Sniper shots is when the target is sitting still, but most are moving.

    It’s so funny some people still think you don’t need to lead a sniper shot that it’s not funny anymore :confused:
    And as if those sniper users only use sniper in their whole setup :rolleyes: I was a sniper user, I also used a flare gun, does it mean I was a half sniper noob?

    And stop being so proud of yourself to be able to lead shots. It’s a basic skill that you must possess if you ever want to climb infamy. It takes time, practice and experience to master leading shots of the weapons you use.

    ...and knowing when a shot is gonna be wasted before pressing the button to start leading. A good player will NOT cancel a single shot during battle. Doing so takes more time than recognizing an impossible shot, switching targets, and firing.

    Leading a sniper is harder than leading a blast cannon. I recently switched from blast to sniper. If a player is not moving, then it doesn't matter either way. If a player is moving, it takes a much more surgical flick to properly lead with a sniper. The blast cannon was FAR MORE FORGIVING for flicking your shots and the hitscan area due to the massive projectile.


    I know you just want to hate on sniper. I think you are pretty low infamy, IIRC. The blast cannon is a better weapon the higher infamy you go.
