The only thing I don't like about the collector sniper rifle is it's range limitation......so many juicy head-shots..have gone without having their melons popped because of it...

 

 

also.... " a sniping geth "  ....pffffffftttttttt...... a sniping krogan is where it's at these dayz.... you don't believe me? drop into any of my lobbies any nite.

 

last night I was privileged to have a krolord with a viper. 

 

When levelling up my Adepts, I've taken a Sniper Rifle on the Fury a few times... (Not the Javelin, because even I am not THAT hipster)

Probably should have specified a little more.... it is most commonly the Indra, though sometimes the Valiant, so essentially an AR. ;)

Talking about the fury, I remember someone here used to swear by the spitfire fury, can't remember who it is but I think they were pretty successful with it.

Never forget the Raptor toting Krogan Sentinel. May he forever be curried in Gold.

Enough time for him to finally headbutt a trooper. Too bad he did 2-3 bars of health damage, he was learning so fast.  :D

 

OT: Geth kits shoot all the things better than anything else (come at me! well, minus the Juggy cause that penalty is terrible) but, anything is efficient. Although I prefer playing the Gethgineer as supportive with a GPS. The GI already pops melons in a better fashion. No need for his brobot to do the same. Although I agree with what the suitrat said above, give him a Saber.

FM was right: in order to fully exploit the kit, you need points in everything and have a CM. If I do that, I'm going to run out of CM's soon, so I tried to compromise. Geth Turret was the one I found the most expendable, HM and Overload are too important to spec out any of their evolutions. Networked AI 6 can be missed, too, it is not essential (but really helpful). So this is what I thought the best non-CM OS Sniper GE, the last points can be spent either to Turret 5B, Networked AI 6A, 6B or Hardware 5B, whichever seems to be the best for the user.

Guy's, you have not seen sniping the way I have recently... I just got really into playing Battlefield 4... mother of the lord, our god....you have not seen sniping until you play rush mode where it is basically 7 vs 7 snipers....just the noises going off around you are ridiculous.....plus, nothing feels better in that game..than landing a head shot on someone who is 900 yards away....I really recommend it........  I came back home here last night...chose the QFI w Black Widow..rolled cerberus / reactor and had the time of my life after going thru that battlefield 4 madness,

No disagreements here. I have ran GE without HM (I was a newb), without Turret, without Passive, and without Fitness. And in all fairness, no-Fitness is by far the best.

However, Turret is the most expendable power in his arsenal, but that is only because HM and Overload are insanely OP. However, I don't really see any of the non-CM armour bonus equipments being all that good on him with an SMG build, which is why I skip Fitness on him.

I honestly don't know what I would do to tweak a Sniper build for him, I'd have to try it again, though I am thinking something like this ( http://kalence.drupa...34U55334!38GBG9). It would need testing in-game, however, number-crunching says Overload+Disruptor IV should drop the shields of ANY non-boss on Platinum (Collectors included), leaving the follow-up Widow shot full access to health.

 

Dammit, you're making me want to run Mantis GE again, you are an evil, indoctrinated human.

2000? puh lease, I headshot people from across servers biatch!

 

At nightman, just wait till you manage to snipe someone off a helicopter, you feel like a demi god!...until five seconds later when someone roadkills you with a quadbike. But if you like sniping you should search for servers which are sniper only on those huge china rising maps. I've had some long fun games in those although they're slower paced than regular conquest.

Yeah, sniping someone off a heli is helluva fun, but if you get roadkilled 5 secs later, you have done something wrong. :whistle:

The maps I am really diggin for sniping are the Hangar 21 map.. I love that snow map...and the resort map..I forget its name....I just started and Im not good at killing people..but if Im on ur team, you love me cuz I am the best damn recon sniper ever..i spend almost the entire match spotting enemies....I get so many damn  assists, I feel like I'm john stockton.......also, I love being the engineer class and waste vehicles....

You have a sniper, they have a helicopter, what are you supposed to do? :P

 

I never played BF4 for long because I was never a fan, but my longest headshot/kill was using a sniper from the top of the tower on Siege of Shanghai. Headshot on the pilot of a helicopter lol. Was a pretty great moment. Didn't get roadkilled either because tower.

 

I think there's a building where you can take a lift up to the top (not the main one, another one) and there are always snipers up there. Just walk to the lift and go knife them. Spent a lot of time doing that.

Well I tend to play a very aggressive recon with mostly close to mid range engagements while using a bolt action rifle. The bad thing about this is that you're always more open to danger than a traditional recon, be it enemy fire or getting pasted to someones bumper.

 

It was hell at first but once you get good there's nothing else that can give you that rush! I always go in for the objectives and end up in cqc situations with either the sniper or a pistol.Good thing is those two are pretty damn good up close, the compact 45 is my second most used weapon after all and the M98b is 4th. Or maybe I'm just silly for playing the sniper as a glorified shotgun but then again I wasn't too bad and I was having fun!

I found the DMRs to be more versatile than the snipers on most maps on BF4.

^^^^^^^^^ I am still too brand new to BF4 to know what a DMR is... I remember it is a really powerful assault / sniper type of weapon, right? I remember the DMR from Halo 4.

I personally though DMRs sucked, a sniper rifle could one shot most people in close to mid range engagements unless they're running the body armor perk. Even otherwise, I always instinctively switched to a pistol to finish off people in case they survived that sniper round. Carbines are also much better over DMRs Imo if bolt action isn't to your preference. 

 

Edit: A dmr is a designated marksman rifle, those single shot rifles you unlock later on along with carbines and shotguns.

^^^^^^^ thats one of the main problems i am having transitioning into  PvP..is the way players / people move... I am so used to how the cpu reacts in every game that I play..that I find myself, just lost...struggling to pick up targets and shoot at them.....people move so differently, that often, I find myself, that I am the one standing still and getting killed..my kill to death ratio is ridiculously laughable.....but for right now, I love being a scout sniper..calling out targets....i got 60 in a game last night...and occasionally getting 3-4 sniper kills is really satisfying for me...especially if I nail them from across the entire map... ;) ....but  these damn guns with their having to aim over, and to the right of the targets to hit them at least once...uggghh...I am just so used to a widow / black widows spot on in your face targeting system.....
