well the only reason i bring the real guns into play, is because the mw2 versions of said guns are not very realistic in any way, besides maybe looks and recoil. no barret or intervention should take 2 shots to kill someone, even if it has a silencer. it just doesnt work that way.

Hey wait a minute!

My name is DetroitSniper! :growl:


But I dont like sniping either (in video games), I just like to roll up and start shooting at anything. But if you are calling a real life scout sniper a pussy, that is kinda dumb.

Thats not exactly what I mean.

In MW2 it takes 2 shots to kill you someone with the FAL, same goes for the .50 Cal. That just doesnt any sense....

Just make sense of it. If you are gonna have the most powerful rifle take 2 shots for a kill, dont make a Assault rifle match it....


But who cares, MW2 is one of the most broken games ever.

Quote by Taco:


okay dumbasses, im going to NOT be a total nubcake and actually talk about the real weapons

Intervention vs Barret 50.cal
-in terms of accuracy, intevention BY FAR. it is THE most accurate gun in the world, and can shoot for up to a mile w/out being thrown all over the place.
-in terms of power, definately a barret. those things are used w/ 251-I bullets (i believe thats right, its 200 something I) to take out fuckin tanks, or well, get inside the shell and do some damage.
-in terms of recoil, probably the intervention or a barret w/ a bipod. put a barret on a bipod and the only recoil youll have is your gun smackin your shoulder apart. but w/out that, intervention all the way
-overall, its a tough decision. it just depends on what you need to do to get the job done. do you need to make a long shot? do you need just straight up raw power for decent distance (decent for a sniper, that is, which is like insane for a reg gun) but id personally just go w/ the intervention, because you can get a little farther away and thus would have a better chance of not being seen by enemies

WA2000 vs M21 EBR
-WA2000, simply because the EBR, altho decent, just shoots too fast. you're a sniper, dammit! the point of a sniper is NOT to get off as many rounds as he can as fast as he can. you have other guns for that. snipers were not made for spraying. they were made to take one, MAYBE 2 shots, take out the HVT, and gtfo as fast as you possibly can before they spot your ass

and, just for kicks, heres one i'll relate to mw2 just for you

"Quick" Scopes vs "Hard" Scopes
-hard scopes are ALWAYS better. sure, you might be called a faggot and a noob, but honestly, how many REAL snipers do you know that have quickscope/noscope competitions? none. theyre always hardscoping like a bitch because otherwise they will fail miserably. i personally think anyone who insults me as a sniper because i 'hardscoped' is just mad and pissy because they got their shit wrecked and need an excuse for their garbage-ness.

my 2 cents on the whole subject. fuck mw2, id much rather talk about the real ones because mw2 nerfed teh fuck out of them. a fuckin barret should NOT take 2 fuckin shots to kill someone!!! especially not in the chest!



Finally Someone gets what i have been talking about over xbox when i snipe thank the lord

i do hope you are talking about sniping in video games, because if you are talking about real snipers youre the biggest fucktard ive ever met and id love to see you do that job.

now if its vid game sniping, i can sorta see that. but, sometimes, its not for pussies. it just depends on the game really. sometimes, you need a sniper to scout out people and stuff and what not, but thats for more strategy games, like maybe BFBC2....but MW2, not really needed...cept maybe for search..

Obviously, I'm talking about fantasy-land video games. How many of you mooks have actually held and/or shot any of the 4 sniper rifles mentioned by the original poster? Personally, I'd like to see them add the .416 Barrett 82A1R in the next MW game. All the terminal performance with less recoil and in semi-auto for faster follow up shots. :D

Speaking of holding cool in game stuff in real life, I got my hands on an ACR this morning. It was really nice, but $2300 seemed a bit much spend. MW2 got me interested, but that price tag brought me right back to reality.

I've shot 2 of 4! The Intervention and .50 Cal. .Cal has almost zero kick if it's on the ground with a bi-pod and you have it snug up against your shoulder.
