there isnt one >.>

Just thinking they should add an animation, at least brign the rifle up as if aiming while concealed... kinda annoyed that i stand still for 5 seconds, then bam, my gun appears out of thin air and the guy is dead

dont know if this was brought up before

I think that adding any kind of animation would make concealment even harder to maintain, it would probably end up breaking concealment all the time.

yhea i suppsoe, fixing concelament breaking for no reason would be good too... XD

Sure. Concealment works too often imo SMILEY

Why would there be a sniper shot animation? You're in conceal.... Hes hardly going to do /dance4 and whip out a halsey and slap someone in the face with it...

#36300340037 10/19/2007 19:56:59 Re:sniper shot animation

I think the gun should at least be pointed towards the enemy when a shot is fired but anything that has a remote chance of breaking conceal is bad! SMILEY

I believe Conceal was fixed in the last update. Perhaps someone (a Dev I mean) could look into the possibility of adding an animation to Sniper Shot?

#36300340087 10/19/2007 22:18:02 Re:sniper shot animation

I think it's better, but I did break out of Conceal after the patch, but it happens way less now.

Personally, I always thought that Concealment should use the same animation was Immobilizing shot (I think) where they kneel down on one knee and fire off a round.

However that would be quite awesome...

Anyways, I always thought it should have the same animation as deadly shot, though I agree that abilities working properly > pretty animations any day...

Well, our sniper rifles also aren't sniper rifles...

They're H&K G-36's and M16A2's.

I didn't know there were many more different ways to show someone owning with a rifle. Like, does it NEED to have its own animation?

It doesn't have ANY animation. Sniper abilities don't even involve a rifle. You just stand there, as the Finger Of God strikes your target for damage.

You're concealed, so it doesn't really matter I suppose.

And oftentimes Snipers do get nicknamed 'God' for their default position - because of their position, able to see everything due to their vantage point. Of course a lot of that can be chalked up to myth and cinema, but I feel that when you put it the way you have it's rather fitting. And Sniper abilities alone doesn't kill a person. Sniper Shot, freefire, Immobilizing Shot, and freefire (or Three Round Burst followed by another freefire) does.
