Sniper build = OP ?
« on: September 10, 2014, 01:46:32 PM »

I got killed with 3 bullets by sniper, only headshots, from almost the other side of an Area by a Lawyer.  ???

I can't believe this, first shot I got blind and then "Shot you in the head" "Shot you in the head" "Shot you in the head" In like 7 seconds while I'm running.  >:(

Seriously It's not the first time It happens, i guess FOnline : aop will become "FOnline : wasteland sniper" soonely ...  :-\

That's why you don't walk the streets, Stick to buildings. Only cross the street if your sure you can make it to the other side very quickly. Sniper shot costs a TON of AP, So if yo uget close, you have a good chance at killing them

Yes but catch those bastards in a building with your melee character, and it is 2 hits with a sledge, maybe even 1 hit kill with mega fist.

It is rock scissors paper.

That's how it works.

Every Class of weapon has OP guns/strategies. Which makes none of them OP at all.

They all have their weaknesses also

It works just like SC:BW. Everything is counter-able.
(Future) you have an enemy sniper in some building looking throw windows? Smoke them with a sneaker and walk right up to him.

always hide in buildings and run at them with your basball bat, that's how you teach them not to shoot you, because baseball bats have a serious knockdown damage, especially when you get a critical

I'm tempted to try a sniper build but I'm likely one of those silly enough to put myself in the position of getting melee'd to death.

Can you guys suggest a few weapons (melee or not) with good knockback to use against snipers?

Grenade launchers, scoped ones. For melee super sledge/impact gloves/mega power fist (best one, but costly)
