I'm puzzled. Using a Kar with scope, I placed the crosshairs in the centre of the opponent's forehead, held breath and fired. He didn't go down but returned fire and killed me with a single shot. Are environmental physics at play in the game? Does one have to compensate for a "breeze" over a distance, for example? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

Thanks for that - I'll give it a go. Chris, you're right. There's a new reef just off the Newfie coast made out of European rifle rounds! My fault for straying to the Dark Side (camp and snipe) - I'm better off running-and-gunning or sneakin'-and-stabbin'! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

If someone is running from side to side and I try to snipe them and they happen to be from the UK, well I have to shoot like 4 bodies in front of them to hit them.
