@NoobLordQQ yeah A.V.A is the best fps online. CA and CS are waaay behind A.V.A but unfortunatly i bought an hk416 and was gonna by tpg1 sniper aaand...ijji.com got hacked last night R.I.P for now lol
Haha,AWP stands for Arctic Warfare Police,the complete name is L96 Arctic Warfare Police,there are more variants like the Arctic Warfare Super Magnum etc.
Oneee freaakkingg time i was g36ing nubs in wave than i gawt dub kill wit it den brought out mah snypa quick scoped one nub den no scoped one nub THEN I NO SCOPED A FAWKIN NAWB IN THA TOWER
definetly. Even though svd has better damage both can 2 hit kill and none can 1 hit kill or 3hit kill so damage is irrelevant. Sr-25 has built in silencer, 10 rounds and faster fire rate and same accuracy as svd
SVD has some sort of bug that jams the gun after 3 consecutive shots (this only happens sometimes not always).
i've been using the l96 mstly all the time i've played combat arms and i
m a pretty good quick scoper and stuff, ppl call me pro but i'm like semi pro lol, i just started trying out the sr25 and it's amazing, the accuracy is a big plus for me, and the semi auto makes no scoping easier as well as taking out multiple targets, i might get a default weapon chage to sr25 when i get the money :D
man i started playing this like a two weeks ago and ive seen alot of snipers but ur fuckin good!!!!! why dont you use more than sniper like automatic weapon or something why pistol?
LOL! At 0:34 you so shouldve been owned XD any decent guy could have clicked before u moved, aimed and clicked :) But anyway, play me! My IGN is Smgexy.
Im a MSG nooby but thats because Im not sergeant yet to get the AWP =D
Good luck though if you do play me, you will need it :) No Hacks.
dude i love using sr25 but the only why people call us noobs cuz mostly people spam them,and have no aim.i am a csm2 now but i still use it and multiple of my 2lt friends use it names,,, daltino ,,,,
The reason people who use semi-automatic snipers are called n00bs is this, if you wanna be able to snap off multiple shots on an opponent go buy an AK and don't play sniper only battles.
Its not that we are afraid of them they are just a pain in the ass to kill someone who is constantly shooting at close range.
lol just cause there gun can shot faster then urs and does a lot of damage dosent make them a noob cause a l9 vs a sr25 l9 always wins meaning if u die from a sr25 when u have a l9 ur a noob for suking
O.o First most people who use an SR25 start spraying at close quarters. Spraying is ALL luck with a sniper. Second, the L9 is very innaccurate for an SR, and we only really get 1 chance against an SR25 before they unload their round. And yes I do usually beat people who semi, its just annoying to scope agaisnt some one hitting you while being scoped.
how ever ur right about sr25 does have an advantage by quicker fire rate but its lower in damage and if u dont like the acc on l9 by a fucking m24 faster fire rate and more acc then u can complain about "semi noobs"(hate that word "noob" and a semi is where u hae to pull the trigger each time and u dont have to cock it back its just auto noob so to speak ppl with dra.svds or svd are semi noobs)
L96 is for when you have stupid opponents running through the field, so you can hit them, and be done. SR25 is for when they are hiding (MUCH MUCH better accuracy).
I'v always though it was funny how in normal matches, people are like "OMG
L96 noob", then in sniper-only matches, they are like "OMG semi-auto (SR25) noob". Who knows more, random players, or people who snipe all the time? Obviously the ones who are scared of SR25.
I actually use Arctic Wolf, but SR25 is #2 for me. =D
i prefer the sr25, not only it has a low price but if you can aim well then you always have headshots (my hs% is 26 ;P) and you can get more kills with it cuz it has double ammo
Wow, most definitely was hacking. Several times he made shots that quickly snapped themselves into target. Not something that can be done by a human, I don't care how good you are.
well... i am that good. and if you dont think its humanly possible than that sucks for you because you will never train yourself to fbe that good and just suck at every game you play. your lose
ep260, my lil brother can do something like that. sometimes, you play for so long, you know where the center of the screen is. if you wanna learn, try sticking something into the middle of the screen. just like how you might need training wheels for bikes. do it for a couple of months, then you'll say its easy.
noob there is a hack i mean a aimbot when u click shift it aims by itself so go home noob and learn to play without hacks xD . add me and play with me if u dare :D . my name at combat arms is avoidmekid
okay which one do u prefer?? tell me which one u like better L96A1 or the SR25?? plz i am really fukin confused about which one is better...?? help me out plz..
i totally agree with you dude, i my self use the l96 and can't stand using i 2 -3 hit sniper, main;y because i want to shot then move and not give them time to cover and shot back, with the l96, especialy if you but a surpresser on it and learn the way the bullets will drop or stray you can easily get ppl, an i have countlessly gotten ppl using the sr cause when they shot me i cover and just locate there postion from where the bullet hit, and there dead

L9 really is the 'pro' choice as seen by most. It's the only sniper that you can actually use 100%, if you're really good.
