(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Hey people didn't know wether this was for me or everyone cause in MW2 for the PS3 dont you think that if you were shot by an intervention or a barrat .50 cal you would be dead if u were hit waist up. I dont think you should need to have Stopping power AND FMJ to get a definate one shot kill from the waist up ................what are your guys expierences with hitmarkers and the power of the snipers in MW2?:confused:

You can either get better at hitting the person in the face OR add stopping power. But with stopping power everyone know's exactly where you are and if some asshole decides to use a horseshit thermal scope forget about it, and there's always one in the group.

Name: Intervention

Lvl: Beginning

Fire Type: Single Shot

RoF: Bolt Action

Multipliers: Headx1.5 Neckx1.5 Chestx1.5 Stomachx1.1 Limbx1

Ammo: 5 @ 15 (40)

Reload: Pretty fast

Info:
Solid multipliers and sexy bolt action makes this a fan favorite.
However, it's the only non semi-auto sniper in the game, and the Barrett
is a semi-automatic version of this weapon with the same multipliers,
making the Intervention somewhat outclassed. However, it is very
accurate and with stopping power can kill when you hit the enemy in
any of the torso area. Good ammo and reload.

Summary: Powerful bolt action sniper, extremely accurate.

Notes: Looks beautiful with Camos. Feels good to get a kill with
and just plain cool. Lots of sway and takes a little more time to
steady your aim when you hold your breath than other snipers. Seems
to have a lot of aim assist.





Name: Barrett .50 Calibur

Lvl: Beginning

Fire Type: Semi-Auto

RoF: Semi-Auto

Multipliers: Headx1.5 Neckx1.5 Chestx1.5 Stomachx1.1 Limbx1

Ammo: 10 @ 20 (60)

Reload: Slow

Info:
Almost exactly like the Intervention, but semi-automatic. Although it
can be fire rapidly, continuously pulling the trigger while scoped in
will have massive recoil and inevitably give away your position. Solid
multipliers and 1 hit kill to torso with stopping power. Good ammo and
reserve, but try not to compulsively reload this one seeing as magazine
size is big and reload is slow. Good for all sniper purposes and can
actually pull some miracle CQB saves by spamming, but don't rely on it
too often as hipfire is terribad. Has A LOT of recoil.

Summary: Semi-auto, high powered, best CQB sniper and abundant ammo.

Notes: Makes the Intervention somewhat obsolete seeing as Barrett is
everything the Intervention is and more, except a slight accuracy decrease
and longer reload. Also has less sway than an Intervention.

Hitmarkers are the worst and I'm not an an expert or anything but if you were shot with a .50 Cal bullet waist-up you should be dead and should not need stopping power for a guaranteed kill.

in cod4 you have 5 god sniper rifles. in mw2 only 4 and 2 of them only good for hc its the m21 and the w2000

cal.50 is underpowered and with the silencer it hits me to heaven lol and looks like shit

and the Intervention is the bigest shit of all......

is miss the m40 and the dragunov..... but you can use the dragunov in singleplayer but not in multiplayer its relay stupid

so all in one the sniper rifles suck in mw2........

What's funny about this is that in hardcore they're over-powered. IW just can't get it right! :rolleyes:

WA2000 statistics are identical to the Dragunov, .50Cal isnt underpowered as its 1hit kill stomach-up, M40A3 is pretty much exact same to Intervention except Intervention doesn't become certain 1hit kill with ACOG.
