Is it just me or does this rape the damage heavily? I was trying to get the ghillie suits earlier with a silenced, ACOG Intervention. At about a 20 yard range I shot some random in the side of the chest and didn't get the kill. Numerous other times the same thing happened at longer distances when using normal scope. Has anyone else ...

I've been looking for a good Penetrator, Cyclops, or Skullmasher for quite some time now. In all my 3 1/2 days worth of playing the game, at least 5 hours worth being just weapon farming in Playthough 3 (or 2.5 or whatever you call it), I've only found one of these; and that's the Fearsome Cyclops that I got today, which has a level 36 requirement despite me being level 50. That's about 84 ...

I was pumped when I got my first sniper. To be honest I thought the game would be easy from then on because a headshot is an instant kill for nearly anything. But it seems like they're the only weapons affected by gravity, and the bullets curve in such a way that they're more like crossbows than snipers. Not to mention finding ammo for them is a pain. I have a scoped rifle that is far more ...

I swear, my god damn cross hair is right on the head of an enemy and the shot doesn't even hit him. Even when I have it pointed for a body shot it still misses. This is so annoying when I'm trying to take out a few guys before the rest start coming after me. I've found combat rifles with scopes to be more reliable. Am I doing something wrong or are sniper rifles terrible?

like a brute skinned sniper with a blade on it like the bruteshot or a chuck noriss rifle all you have to do is look at your target or a glass of water drink it and everyone you hate dies

Sounds ludicrous I know but I noticed I have trouble getting headshots with Sniper Rifles but get them all the time with Revolvers at range. I figured this: It's rare to get a Sniper Rifle with a bonus to Accuracy, you have to get the "Distant" prefix or something. Very rare The only accuracy bonus you get for Sniper Rifles is from Mordecai's FOCUS skill Revolvers tend to have high accuracy, ...

I found a sniper that doesn't really require headshots to be effective. I LIKE IT!, Torgue Cobra: High explosive damage. (Reference to the "Cobra Assault Cannon" from Robocop, and comment of one of its users, Emil Antonowsky) This thing just hammers anything it hits pretty hard, I don't even go for headshots anymore except on the big slow buggers simply cause it's fun to see all that meat ...

Can anyone see a difference in the sniper and hunting rifle (besides the ammo clip size and look)? I'm having a hard time telling if there is a difference in zoom or power. It seems as if they're both 1 shot, 1 kill, and the zoom seems the same. Also, who plans on maining the with the sniper? I used it all the time for the special infected in the original, and it seems like it's gonna get ...

Part of the problem with slow bullets is that enemies will react to the gunshot and move BEFORE they get hit. Very noticeable when aiming for headshots.
