Trying to make my mind up about sniper rifles in Hardcore...

.... is it best to have a bolt action rifle - one shot one kill no matter the distance but risk missing and having to reload loosing the target in the meantime, but when you do get a hit it feels good :p
.... or a less powerful semi-auto 2 shots per kill, which is find also better if you want to run around a little as its more mobile and easy to shoot things close range.

Also what does magnum ammo do? I havent unlocked this yet, does it turn a semi-auto into a 1 shot 1 kill machine?

I prefer bolt-action 1 hit kills , that way they don't have time to react to taking damage from the first shot and run about like a crazy mofo.

Magnum Ammunition

A considerably heavier bullet, its mass and elevated muzzle velocity provides greater damage and increased range.

I use the magnum ammo for the damage , firing in small bursts at a distance it's amazing. Probably 2 / 3 shots to take someone down? Love it

Is magnessium better than the the one with a Gun and plus sign? Increased handling and accuracy or something?
 
Just wondering if a lot of other people get CTD's with this game and 5850.

I do of course need to still test at stock clocks to see if that's why am getting CTD's, but can't do that til tonight, and just wanted to check with others in the mean time.
 
Did i read it right that you have to run the game as admin to see your pings in game?

If so, how can you do this with a steam copy, i tried quickly yesterday but it didn't give me the option of 'Run as Admin'


Also with the rig in my sig i have had 0 CTD's etc, hope i didn't speak too soon!
 
I've tried using bursts, everyone else just seems to kill me from some stupid angle a million miles away.

Same with being a sniper, I "seem" to hit people, for example I've shot them and they've not moved but nor have they taken any damage?

This. Same here. I'm not **** so I must be doing something wrong.

You should be admin of your pc already but if your not, you can find the bad company 2 exe in program files/steam and you should find it from there. Create a shortcut paste it to desktop, right click on it for properties, shortcut tab/advanced 'run as administrator', you will probably need steam to be running at the same time. If you've already tried that then I have no clue
 
I've tried that as i have a steam copy as well and it doesnt work (for me).

>.< Erm well whoever is admin of the computer, telll them or login to their account and promote yourself to adminstrator via control panel and you should have access to the same rights as 'running in admin mode' would give you, if that fails to work then it must be unrelated to admin mode

I am and that is what i have tried, it just didn't give me the option to 'run as admin' :confused:

I am right in saying it shows pings in the game and not just in the server browser right? (Im sure that's what i read!)
