Devs said that the majority of the combat would take place in urban locations, therefore snipers wouldn't have much use, adding glint would make them even more useless. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unless you're referring to like bandages or serial markings, in which case +1. Edited February 8, 2016 by Patfast Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
m8malin 0 Posted February 8, 2016 (edited) Hope it will be 1 shoot 1 kill coz its quite nice caliber or atleast cause heavy bleeding. Edited February 8, 2016 by m8malin Correction Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MadStalker 61 Posted February 8, 2016 30 minutes ago, m8malin said: Hope it will be 1 shoot 1 kill coz its quite nice caliber or atleast cause heavy bleeding. I agree with this, but it has to get all the bad sides like weight (be slowed while using it), a long time to scope, etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Protector 6 Posted February 8, 2016 What is the flat piece on top of the barrel? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kovacs 162 Posted February 8, 2016 5 hours ago, Protector said: What is the flat piece on top of the barrel? It's a mirage shield. When your barrel is hot (after a succession of shots or because you are in a hot region), a "heat mirage" (same like the blurry thing you see above roads in summer) can appear and make your scope sight very difficult (or nearly useless due to distortion). 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The thing is, scope glint is a problem in real life. It happens and snipers use a thing called a kill flash tostop it from happening Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But the scope glint you see in real life versus what you see in video games is VERY different. For reference, this is what scope glint looks like in reality: And then this is what it looks like in Battlefield: As you can see, the scope glint is highly exaggerated in order to help the player find the sniper more quickly, and thus keep it balanced.
