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:

even with fmj and stopping power thers only about a 70% chance of a 1 hit kill from my snipeing experience from the waste up

Well underpowered snipers aren't really a big problem for me. I mean I can use a silencer on the Intervention or the Barrett and still get one shot one kill. It seems like you have to hit them in the right spot, and thats probably the only way you will be getting a one shot kill.

I hope you're offended
In my opinion, snipers should stop complaining and just practice to be better.
Call of Duty isn't real life, deal with it. If it was more like real life, take out re-spawning, take out recovering after getting shot, take out everything.
If you want actual one-shot kills, play hardcore. They're not going to change sniping power because if they do, everything else will be underpowered, so just deal with it.

Then your not hitting from the waist up. Sometimes lag is so stupid you think you hit them in the head but it was the arm. I had this happen, yesterday on the same map i was picking ppl. off left an right shot was going right where i was aiming on derail i checked and had full bars in my connection. Today same map i was shooting what looked like was right on their face but it was either a miss or a hit marker looked at my connection and it was crap.......................

God damn it, if you think snipers are underpowered on MW2 go play BC2...a 2 shot kill with all but 1 sniper, unless it's a headshot.

Maggbot timeout!
every 1 goes on about the barret .50 but in real life the intervention has more power than a 50cal up to 400 yards and can hit a hole through 1/4 inch steel at 2600 yards FACT!!
yet i shoot someone on mw2 and get hit markers!! its very annoying when u only get 1 shot to kill AND GET A HIT MARKER b4 someone with 100 bullets in there RPD spams the crap out of you.

HOW CAN THIS BE FAIR??
