Ultimate Sniper rifle: CheyTac M200

CheyTac papers state that the entire system is capable of delivering sub-MOA accuracy at ranges of up to 2500 yards (2286 m), one of the longest ranges of all modern-day sniper rifles. -YT

Moral of the story for any terrorist watching is... keep walking. By the time the guy finishes his math homework, you can be another mile down the road. Crap! Target out of range!

In MW2, the sniper possibly only has an edge on the consoles because of the 1 hit kill factor. As you can see from the video he frequently misses, more than enough time for a pc player to line up his sights and kill you. Anything you can see and shoot at using a sniper rifle, you can see and shoot at with another gun (except for pistols).

Reload time + time to line up reticle during sway = death. I use the barrett in-game for fun, have the fall camo on it (250+ headshots) - but when I want a higher K:D I go for the other guns.

I'm sorry, you have a weather device, the output of which you manually input into the targeting device? This is evidence of the wastefulness of the military industrial complex. Take the weather device, stick it on the targeting device. There, I just saved you 2 very important minutes.

^Man, half the time he's not aiming anywhere close to the guy, and he one-shot-kills him? Glad I never played this game.


he is in fact aiming at them, its just that when your using a sniper rifle on mw2 you have no reticule. so it becomes a matter of mentally memorizing where it would be in the center of your screen. I've seen alot of hackers in that game, no doubt. This however, is not one of them.

oh it does also take a fair amount of luck no scoping a sniper rifle. what? you think he would put in kill shots where he lost? comon its his video

Not saying he's hacking, they just have auto-aim/really loose hitboxes. When he scopes in, he's literally aiming half a bodylength away from the guy.

Network lag has a lot to do with hit box placement.

Think of the graphics as paint on a wire frame that is really a charade for a numbers game.

The hit box may be in the right place but the hardware and network lag may have the graphics in the wrong place.

For instance, if a target is running, and you lead the target chances are you will score a hit. The hitbox projects in the direction the target is running.

If he were hacking he does a good job of taking the auto-aim hack tells off of his videos. When automating the gun cursor will jump to the next target. Similar to the single player.

It's all speculation because I don't have access to game .log files or a network analyzer.

This is a Mw2 hack: NSFW SONG!



The main reason I do not play FPS on PC.

Hacking, and Glitching ruins the game. Because of it legit players who just happen to have a useless talent for the game get accused of hacking.

The gun is a TAC50, but at about 0:40 you can see him using the same device for windage (and a rangefinder and micro-adjustments to the scope within the video)...



..this is ArmA 2 with the ACE 2 mod. A game where you can actually make good use of a sniper rifle.

Maybe the lack of dedicated servers has something to do with it. In most pc fps games, cheaters and hackers get detected and banned, exploits are patched, and having favorite server list makes cheating a non-issue. And I doubt you were ever good enough to get confused for a cheater everywhere you go, since if you're that good, why are you wasting your time on random pub matches in the first place.

At a guess part of the reason for this is the gun's recoil could damage the sensitive equipment, plus the gun could at times be camouflaged under some form of light cover and not in a good position (to low) to take an accurate wind reading.

I never said I was good. Other than that I agree with your statement.

Very valid points as to why they may want to keep the electronics off the gun itself. But both the weather device and the targeting computer are run by the second man.>> ^Drax:
