Looking for a sniper like simulator?

Love sniping on bf2, more to the point, i play gulf of oman a lot and love going covert and parachuting down on the carrier, then get to a high point and pick off as many of them as possible.

Good Times :D
 
I'm hoping OFP2 has some good sniping missions, or a mod comes along for it, then it will look great graphically and should have good gameplay.

I have not played BF2 for ages. I have heard of the project reality mod which sounds interesting. Is there a widescreen fix/patch for stock BF2 as there is no way I am going to play this in 4:3 ratio.

theres a command line workaround.
check widescreengamingforums for detail.

Ghost Recon give you a decent amount of sniping fun :)
 
I asked this same question a few months back.

In the end I decided on COD4 multiplayer using the few custom sniper servers out there. Some of the maps are massive, and can become very tense, just waiting for other snipers to reveal themselves.

I used this browser http://cod4tracker.com - think it's now been rebranded as battle tracker. You just search for servers and put the search string 'sniper' in.

Some servers are better than others, the experience varies, but a couple I found where quite brilliant, especially one map called 'rock'

EDIT - this browser obviously caters mainly for BF games, but you can see that COD4 servers are still in there. You just go to the SEARCH option along the top, and select the SEARCH SERVER tab, then just put 'sniper' into the servername field.

It might be that World at War has more active sniper community now.

christian snipers cod 2 must be one of the buisest servers in world64 man all day always full or near full 24/7.





cod 4 mhz sniper server. great maps great zoom. a little hard on sniper noobs though.:p always busy.

 
I suggest ARMA. There's loads of custom missions and it's quite easy to create your own sniper based campaigns/missions.

+1 the man tell the truth

If you want to snipe and like long range shooting ( 700m to 1000m+ )
Get yourself a copy of Arma , its amazing no other military simulator comes close
Beware it is REALLY hard to play , a lot of people give up cos they get constantly
killed and cant work out where they are being killed from
 
I had hopes for Arma, but just didn't like it.

Op flash on the other was immense when it came out. Wayyyyyy too many hours used up on that game :p

CoD 4 multiplayer has the worst sniping I have ever seen in any game.

if you make reference to trying to play sniper properly on the standard mp maps and standard mods, then yes I agree.
If you join a custom server, with custom mods and sniper specific maps, then i don't agree.
 
Can't believe nobody's suggested Project: IGI. It's almost entirely a sniper game and looked amazing for it's time (around 2001). Give it a try. There's also Project IGI 2 but I haven't played that.
 
Theres a sniper mod for bf2 with unlimited view distance or you can play sniper in pr which is linked in my sig, view distance upto about a kilometer
