Crossfire Sniper Matches

Basically i am absolutely shit with a sniper and have no idea why, in most games i'm pretty handy with a sniper, its just even though the crosshair is right on someone it just never hits, my average sniper match will end like 10/40 (most of them probably knife kills!) or something and in standard deathmatch it would be closer to the other way round.

If i face a wall and shoot twice without moving, the holes will be in different places by quite a difference sometimes. I sometimes get the feeling that with ranged shots there could be a ping issue or something and they aren't where why shots are firing.

I'm just wondering if there anyone else has had/having a similar issue and if they have any tips for getting round it, i have lvl 2/3 badges in every other class other than sniper and having elite badge would be pretty kick ass but cant get the kills up.

Any tips/possible solutions would definitively be a massive help.

Cheers Guys!

... You need to right click to scope in. Then your sniper has 100% accuracy

I know that much, even then the shots don't always hit, even when they are stood 100% still and i get 2 or 3 shots on them they still have time to turn around and kill me.

And U Have To Get a Good Mouse .. And Find Out The Mouse Senstivity That's Good For U .. I Advice U To Put Ur Three Fingers On Ur Mouse, The Middle On The Wheel To Switch Weapon, The Right Finger On The Left Button, And The Right Finger On The Right Button.

Also U Should Have Good Ping And FPS..
Suitable Ping Range : 1 - 100
Suitable FPS Range : 300 - 80

And Crossfire Isn't Like Any FPS Game .. It's Difficult To Be a Po Sniper .. I Played CF For a Year Without Pausin' Or Leavin' a Single Day Without Playin' And I'm Still Well, Not an Extra Pro :|

EDIT : Never Move While Hittin' Someone .. And Never W8 For Someone To Give U The Chance To Kill Him, Until U Get Better And Faster, Don't Get Bored .. U'll Never Get Better Without Practicin'

Thank Me If I Helped

The 3 finger thing is a good idea actually i'm going to give that a try later, i have had a look around on youtube and stuff for videos or posts and there's very little. I know the best way to get out of zoom is to switch to knife and switch back again and using quick scoping as well to get the accuracy and speed up, i just can't do any of it to save my life...literally!

dragunov ist good :| , with that sniper u dnt get a kill unless the target is damaged! use AWM or DSR, I preffer AWM (RD)

Do U Quickscope ?
If U Do It And Fail With Aimin' Don't Be So Mad .. This Is Normal .
And As I Said, U Have To Choose a Good Mouse And Zoom Sensitivity For U.
(I Really Prefer Mouse Pad, Try It)

And If U Face That Problem, When Ur Mouse Moves Like a Wave And U Can't Aim..
Download This File :
Mouse Acceleration Fix
Then Open It And Click Ok - Restart Ur Computer .
U'll Find The Mouse Much Slower But It'll Be Perfect For Gamin'

How much ping do you have usually?

Don't use a Dragonav, get an AWM.

Teach my how to no scope.

@thread, uhm try using the Q as your toggle weapon, it's alot easier than the mouse scroll wheel, but I guess that's preferences..
If you gotta hardscope, then hardscope.
The sensitivity you use when you're using rifles, try lowering it when your sniping. I don't know if it makes a difference, but it did for me.
Make sure you're not moving when you shoot.. At times you think you're stood still when you're actually not.

Use a Mouse Sensitivity : 20-30 Zoom Sensitivity: 30-40
And shooting twice while not getting the bullet in the same place , It's pretty normal , Check Snipers' Recoil , it's pretty damn high.
Open Shooting Range for AWM , Start training your Quick Scoping.
That's how i learnt Sniping.

YUP. Well there's your problem right there. That sniper has extremely low accuracy, making only 1 out of 5 shots hitting where you want it to be. An AWM or the default sniper (M700) have more accuracy than the Drag and it would be recommended to use those instead if you want to play in a snipers TD match.
