It is one of very few weapons in the game that takes skill to use and be good with it.

Since when is that an argument for using it?  I prefer guns that hit where I aim them, regardless of experience required.

exactly what i always stress to someone who uses that argument. sure, maybe my ACR or SCAR requires less skill and i get alot of kills with it...but, uh, isnt that the point? to get as many kills as quickly and efficiently as possible? why would i want to limit myself by using an inferior weapon that requires even more skill? never makes sense to me.

If you're good with the Intervention it is NOT an inferior weapon. There are so many more Intervention montages than with the ACR or SCAR.

thats because 99% of people try to look cool with a bolt-action rifle. there is absolutely no reason to use the intervention over the .50 cal. they both have the exact same damage, damage modifiers, and the .50 cal is semi-auto and has a larger clip. while you're forced to use sleight of hand, i have the versatility of using whatever blue perk i want. hands down, the .50 cal outclasses the intervention anyday.

the ACR and SCAR was just an example. personally i hate the SCAR because its rate of fire is too slow for me. the ACR is beast because its insanely accurate and the best gun in hardcore. i also love the TAR, and more recently, the F2000 because i use it as a smg rather than an assault rifle and because its a headshot cannon, mainly due to its high recoil. spray and pray.

There's a lot more differences in 360 and ps3 on call of duty than just the graphics.  I remember use'n the scar on 360 and be'n able to get kills very easily.  On ps3 it's not as good.  The famas is actually better... The graphics were also better on 360.  The 360 was awesome, it just kept die'n on me too much, so I had to switch.

On the intervention thing.  I agree on both sides.  It's great to have the super high KDR, but is also cool to try the more "expert" weapons.  I use the Titans on Madden to prove even more a point when I beat the Saints and Ravens.  Yeah, it's a real disadvantage for me, but that's the way I roll sometimes.

The only reason to use a sniper rifle would be in a clan match imo.  Like Search and Destroy, where you have your sniper against theirs.

there are no differences for weapons between both the ps3 and 360 version. they are the exact same in terms of damage output. maybe you were getting more kills on the 360 version because there are more people on XBL, hence more n00bs to kill...? :)

i can see your point on using inferior weapons, but for the people that are super competitive and want to win consistently, there pretty much is no reason to use the weaker weapons. its like going to a type 1 2 player redemption tournament armed with a starter deck.

and for the record, i hate snipers/campers in general.

Not really. It'd be like going to a redemption tournament using anything but a fast TGT deck.

*that might have changed since Disciples*

I think if you use a sniper weapon, you shouldn't have to camp.  Like in CS, use'n a deagle/AWP.  You run around like you have an assault rifle, but you only get 1 shot, then you can switch and spray your pistol.

What's wrong with sniping?  I can see in some games why camping might be a nuisance, but sniping?  Most games, a n00b with a sniper will get more kills for your team than his.

i dont know, i've never liked the idea of some cocky guy just sitting safe and sound picking guys off football fields away. i may also be a little biased because im only a mediocre sniper myself. running close range though and putting a spas12 to a cocky snipers head undetected...now thats real satisfaction.

I like sniping as well, however, I do it differently. I use a sniper on 24 player FFA matches on Killhouse (very small map)

Pretty amusing trying to point blank with a Barrett.

I don't see why you should be prejudiced against sniping. It's a legit way of getting kills, and if you're a GOOD sniper, you won't get SPAS'd in the face from someone behind you. Since I'm a try-hard, I use Turtle Beach headsets, which lets me hear you coming unless you have Ninja.

Besides, spraying and praying is stupid. You get a lot more satisfaction when you quick-scope someone. And, EVERYONE uses assault, and sprays and prays. The Intervention proves your skill since you have basically one well-placed shot to kill them, versus the spray n' pray Barrett and all the other AR's/LMG/SMG.

Only n00b snipers use the Barrett.

Some of the best counter-strike players ever sprayed.  There's a difference between a good player spraying and a bad player spraying.  The bad player closes his eyes and moves the gun in all directions hope'n to kill the guy that jumped outta no where and scared him.  The good player sprays down the whole other team and kills em' all before he has to reload.

 :thumbup:

p.s. use whatever gun you like.  But if you're only 1:1 or less and trying to prove that it's skill to use a certain gun, that's not prove'n a whole lot.  Now if you're just a bit under the top guys or equal with them and you're use'n the sniper, then you are prove'n something.

p.s.s I never was a big fan of deathmatch type games.  I like the 1 and done.  So in these counter-strike type setups, the sniper is more effective.  Also, if you're just sitting somewhere in a regular public server and picking people off, there's no talent to that.  If it's a clan match that's different, because the talent level is a lot higher.
