personally i didn't find your tips too useful for my playstyle i like the proper snipers and to lay prone and the zeroing function is way more useful than staying on 100 meter and just winging the shot tho you did have a few good points that i use myself like not being scoped in too much and to move alot. tho for other people what might read this and are more like me and use the proper sniper versions i do atvice try to be as small of a target as possable if your behind the top of a hill of trench crawl up just enough to see your target and shoot and move after one or max two shots. P.S. i'm a console player so might be that this applies more to my and or the console playstyle.

I love it when I get a kill with a spot flare. It's more satisfying than getting an actual headshot...

Its not much harder tbh been doing it a lot lately trying to get most of the Weapon dog tags

Another gr8 tip not only to bolt-action rifles but also to some self-loading rigles and even pistols is reloading only when you have let's say on the Mark III 5 bullets, your reload animation will be much faster than reloading at 4 bullets. Because reloading a clip of 5 bullets instead of putting every single round one by one is quicker.

After advancing into betterment, I highly recommend going into the infantry variants of scout weapons... You can set magnification to 2x, versus the Marksman variant having 4x, which really has no noticeable advantage-plus, instead of sitting back like Chris Kyle, you can play the objective if your game mode includes capturing or pushing enemy lines. I never resort to any scope use accept for when all I want to do is counter-snipe from many hundreds of meters away. Scoped-weapons make close-quarter-combat quite difficult for abundantly clear reasons. Infantry variants are for the aggressive, skillful, close to long-range combatants who end up with many tens of thousands of points.

Fantastic video! This is exactly how I see the scout. Moving around, spotting enemies, stay close to your team/platoon, short to middle range sniping... and so on. I hate players who lay on the ground in one spot to get a kill in a while. These guys will never understand this brilliant game. So many thanks for this fantastic video!

Thanks a lot. Scout and medic are my worse classes so far but now I'm getting better with scout. I wish I could put my Lawrence of Arabia's SMLE skin on the marksman or carbine variant though

Old skool sniping has to be the best. nice tutorial westie.

thnx for some handy sniper tips :D

I appreciate the real gameplay and not a bunch of over edited gameplay. Keep it up!

The periscope I find is a very handy gadget, to able to spot enemy players from behind cover. Having a enemy sniper red outlined can give you a significant advantage

Fun fact, RussianBadger ate some of my k bullets. He did not like them...

I like using the periscope. Allows me to gauge range better and sight the rifle correctly.

bit off topic but I actually love the Autoloading 35. something about the fast fire rate and lack of rounds just makes me perform carefully and fast

Great Vid!!!

Lost both.

DICE need to bring back the vapour trail from BF4. Both myself and a friend are having difficulty seeing the bullet drop at distance.

This was helpful

Westie what about that follow up to the weapon idea video

I keep my bullet drop adjustment at 150m and man I'm telling you it works amazing with iron sight that's what I like using. I pick dudes with scopes with headshots that are more then 150m away by aiming directly at their head and a lot of times they miss their first shot trying to work out how much to shoot above my head, then I just steady the sights and shoot. Usually get headshots. Even in close ranges you can still aim for their head and it will hit right where you shoot.

Mars auto is like shooting a cinderblock in your hand and watching it snuff a guy out in an instant It's crazy that it looks like an artillery piece exploding too when hip firing, hip fire kills are the most satisfying ever in this game for me I'm an enthusiast on the gun haha

Since I am a console player, I use the M1903 Experimental. When it comes to close quarters, I use it's pistol ammunition to take down enemies. When there's an enemy in the distance, I'll shoot him down, usually not succeeding on killing him. I might start using the Martini Henri Infantry once I get it.

I have had so many games lately where the enemy team had about 15 snipers killing me and my team multiple times so many so that I've made a dedicated counter sniper class using the good old springfield I've killed 3 snipers in under a minutes it's the most gratifying feeling getting revenge on the snipers.

Cheers westie, I'm a xmas noob so a big help cheers

ive not played sniper since bf3 its going to be a painful return, when i have tried im obviousaly aiming too high, good vid

thanks that was useful

Need to also mention the common aim and zooms in the advanced menu for sensitivity. Also use all your mouse pad turn down that sensitivity for better accuracy. I also like to run the the ^ scope it seams to use less of the scope for cross hair.

I also think that the periscope can be very useful on most situations

I always use a trench periscope and a tripwire il use a spot and k rounds depending on the situation but for the higher magnification it's always better to use a trench periscope due to no glare plus u can spot for another sniper or just teammates

I like to use iron sights more only because I play the scout class pretty aggressive so I can PTFO. I find that the Fromer Stop get me out of most jams.

the thing I like about this guy/guide, is that he shows clips, in which he looks like a normal sniper. whenever I see a sniper guide, i see them run arround an headshotting everyone ect. But thank you for the guide, I knew most of the things but not the 4.00× Magnifier thing :)

I find the zeroing function quite helpful

This is what I need I really want to be a good sniper!

what weapon are u using? is the buller goes straight?

I have the Trench Periscope, it is incredibly underatted

You can use the periscope to detect distance

look at an objective to see it's distance if it is between you and your target so you can get a more accurate estimate of their distance

you didn't mention the Gehwer M.95. it's my go to because of the straight pull bolt and how fast it fires

Pretty much summed up my style of scout play. Another thing that messes with muscle memory is nerf & buff. Hope Dice doesn't get to crazy with it like activision 🙄

What does pressing down on d pad to change thr mm to 75mm 300mm actually do and when Should we actually use it

QUESTION: Does normal spotting highlight enemies for your whole team or just your squad??

Personally if I'm using a long range scope, I switch to my secondary pistol and use that to scope in. While it's not 8x or 10x mag... it makes it easier to see and look for targets far away rather than use the scope, when you find the target, switch to sniper and take them out.

i always had the k bullet but barely used it. with tripwire bombs i got more kills and it notifies me when there;s an enemy in that spot. so i know if they're nearby or going towards the objective. very usefull if used right

some good tips

What tips do you have for me? I only play team death match and I prefer iron sights on my sniper rifle.

does someone else misses sniping in bf4, for me it was more satisfying. happy new year

westie im your biggest fan of all time

Use trench scope when behind cover u can also spot while not endangering yourself

I am great at the scout class and not just sniping I stay behind tremches on the fromt line alot and us the trench pariscope

Will enabling uniform aiming assist me I play a close medium and far range scout dependant on the map and I want to know if I'm changing for x2/x4/x6 magnification am I always going to be loosing that muscle memory

This was helpful but I cant seem to get the 98 to work for me. Thanks this vid

good tips.

A sniping video yuss :)

I enjoy infantry weapons a being a really offensive on the move scout

During the whole video you were using the sniper with equipt bayonet. Here comes my question-do you use bayonet on your sniper often or it is just for the video

I just use the K-bullets on infantry and I do good which means M1907 Springfield infantry is in the multiplayer just with tiny anti vehicle use

Hey could you link your best sniper rifle video in the description?

WESTIE! I need to know where you found the music in the intro of the video. I've combed the entire internet and cannot find it. Pls help

I always wonder if your weapon is not so good with barrel. Do it have something to do with bullet drop on sniper weapon with barrels or without. I just play without, but do it have something so say? Its better with or without? See that u use it wth barrel on ur videos. thanks to the other tips westie :)

Always on the move while aiming but stop right before you are about to shoot and when suppressed find cover and don't shoot if you cant find cover then dont aim directly at the target because of random bullet deviation

Is there any settings video ?

Quick tips()()>> The drifference between using a sniper and marksman variant A sniper variant comes with an bipod and higher magnification scope while the marksman comes with a palm rest and telescopic sight but however like wedgie said sniper variants give off that big white scope glimp while marksman variants do not. If you like that sniper version or it's the only one in its class such as the Russian 1895 which has no marksman try using the sniper shield to cover yourself and use the trench periscope this is the same as a 10x magnification scope but without a glimp so consider that. Or use the head on a stick this gives out a fake scope glimp and while you sit there and watch them snip the decoy they become marked and you can take them out. In closer to medium use the Flash flare gun to blind all of those enemies who see the scope glimp and take them out while they are blinded. :) leave a reply for more tips and other stuff on taking out tanks
