Battlefield 3 - Extreme range sniping with a silenced M40A5

Sniping at range has been made harder in Battlefield 3, with the bullets having noticably more parabolic drop at range. The addition of a silencer increases this further still AND makes the projectiles travel slower. Challenge accepted!

(UPDATE: A lot of people have been saying that the range of the shots in this video are not that extreme at all, and this is true. Remember however, that this was recorded and uploaded early in the beta, and at that point, this was about as far and extreme as it got. Thanks for watching!)

@TAMPATLBLACK This is what snipers do. They sit in one area and pick people off from a distance, with a shot the enemy never saw coming. Snipers do not run around "no scoping" people in real life, like they do in Call of Duty.

100 yards is not extreme range.

try 1000

@JSoroke try 200 whit m40a5 silenced ^^

@JSoroke with suppresor? you'll have to aim about 10 meters above theguys head, not talking about the longer travel time...

@Riokushinaku I think that by "more effective," he meant "effect the shot more."

The way they die is so realistic. The animation is so smooth!

Epic!
