Olbritishchap Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 Spy really is a situational class, because after a round of solid back rape they will all be paranoid as hell and harder to backstab. I usually play soldier for like 5 minutes so they relax a bit then go back to spy. So anyways, been playing sniper more lately. Been kinda hard with my fps being like 30 since the may 29th update, but i had a really good round today on steel. Raped with huntsman on defense, and hsed a few scouts trying to cap E, but then got owned by a crit rocket and 3 scouts capped while my team was raped by a heavy D: On offense i used huntsman until we capped C then switched to sniper rifle in that little room off of A. Got so many headshots :D they only had onesniper who liked to stand still and try to get bodyshots on me, it was really funny. Got like 3 dominations and hsed a scout who jumping around E and loled. It was a fun game :thumbup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nadril Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 I'm still really using the huntsman now as a sniper. The Huntsman/Jarate combo is great, because I can provide some awesome support with jarate (Jarate + pyro = sex) and you would be surprised how many headshots you can pull with Huntsman if you're good.

Wisp Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 Ambassador makes it too hard for engineers, in my opinion. It's all too easy for a spy to sap, then without having to worry about getting behind the engy to backstab, just fire the gun twice and kill them. Only time I ever really fail with that is if the teleporter kills me if I accidentally walk onto it, or if the engineer gets a critical wrench hit.

I prefer smg with huntsman because with 125 hp classes i just give em a quick body shot and finish them off with smg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nadril Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 See I prefer all of the assists I get with jarate. Plus jarate and a melee hit is really useful if they get up close (at least better than trying to do damage with the [cabbage]ty smg). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjrox32 Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 I definitely prefer jarate over the SMG, but I generally use the sniper rifle over the huntsman. It's just more effective in general; quicker, more accurate. My problem with the huntsman is that people can dodge it the way they can dodge rockets or pills, but you can't dodge a hitscan weapon.

MicroLegionnaire Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 Hey guys, what's a corner sniper? Sniper that sits at a corner, pops out, aims and fires, then jumps back into cover. And here I thought he was setting us up for a joke. There wouldn't by any chance happen to be any moral ambiguity over corner sniping would there...

It was just the way you wrote it that said, "This gonna be funny up in here". Command the Murderous Chalices!

jjrox32 Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 Snapshooting is probably the best way to snipe. You just run around like you would any other class, and then go for a quick headshot whenever you see someone. Standing still in a single spot scoped for an entire game is stupid because of how easy it is for spies and other snipers to kill you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't wait for it to charge, which does 150 dmg per headshot if I remember, while the bow is somewhere between 115-130 due to random damage.

I've been getting back into the groove of the normal rifle, which is probably a good thing. It's a bit of adjusting compared to huntsman but will probably be better to get back to it. (considering my top score with huntsman was no where near the 33 points I've gotten with rifle). edit: Might start playing soldier more again. Had a real nice score after a round of cp_well, me and my medic were double everyone else's on the servers score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Furah Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 I got the ambassador last night, I like it, got a crit hit on a scout on 2fort, too bad it didn't kill him :( Also I like the Bonk! too bad it seems to not last long.

AndyPandy Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 Got huntsman the old fashioned way the other day. Sometimes I love it, and sometimes I hate it. I love it on PL maps, and on Turbine, but most other places I hate it. Also, spying on Turbine is great fun! Anyone love turbine? I never used to play it, but now it's one of my favourite maps, alongside goldrush and badwater. So don't let anyone tell you you're not worth the earth, These streets are your streets, this turf is your turf, Don't let anyone tell you that you've got to give in, Cos you can make a difference, you can change everything, Just let your dreams be your pilot, your imagination your fuel, Tear up the book and write your own damn rules, Use all that heart, hope and soul that you've got, And the love and the rage that you feel in your gut, And realise that the other world that you're always looking for, Lies right here in front of us, just outside this door, And it's up to you to go out there and paint the canvas, After all, you were put on the earth to do this, So shine your light so bright that all can see, Take pride in being whoever the [bleep] you want to be.

I tend to stick to 3FL, Westnet and some other server, I think it's something like Gamearena (all are Aussie servers.) I really love Sandvich, especially some of the things Heavy says after eating it. "What's that Sandvich? Kill them all? Good idea! HAHAHA!" "Look at the itty bitty people running from Sandvich."
