The best I've got so far is +125 marksman headshot, this epic shot from miiiles away.
I also bagged a double HS with one bullet from a good distance at this crazy narrow angle through a window and two internal doors - a throughly Woot-Worthy moment!
What's your highest sniper marksman bonus?

Gratz man - nice shots. I think I hit +75 and a +100 not sure, usually don't watch it too close. It is nice when it happens. I love the recon class, been working a bunch recently on whipping out the Saiga and letting lose too. So fun.

You won't be saying that when my motion mines and Q-flaggings let you out flank the enemy and compleatly crush them - not to mention saving your ♥♥♥♥ with counter sniping/medic killing, vehicle and Mcom destruction with morters.

Mine was in the 190's...found a sweet friggin' spot on Isla Inocentes!
I have an idea to top that, but so far it has proven difficult lol...I think the only map it will be possible to top with is the huge desert one.

Ignore sniper QQ'ers, they just are not very good players - they don't know how to move with cover, minimize target points, cut angles, think about where a sniper might be etc. Of course, everyone knows 40mm are totally fine lol.
At any rate, I agree with you there again, can't count how many times I have saved a base, captured a base, saved a team mate, spotted enemies for the team, blown up tanks, brought in the rain etc.

nah, just the vanilla GOL. spotter scope too i guess, that helps by putting the nice orange tick mark over the enemy

So far only 110, it was a long range snipe with the basic sniper, and i got a headshot on the guy who was on a turret.
Im improving, but not at the level i can snipe in other games yet sadly. Getting there though!

3623. Since there is bullet drop, a bullet shot upwards will eventually come down. I shot a round almost directly up, and it came down on somebody's head. I wish.

Speaking of "spot" kit - how does that work. I have it on all my rifles setups and assume it is adding a mark t the map - does it only add the mark for me or how does it work - do I need to press anything special or does it work likes it says - just by being fit?

right the whole 8 of them on the team , point out everything and toss motion mines.
they do this as they loss are the points and not move forward, they are weak and do not have any nutz
pzero
03-06-2010, 11:24 AM
you have a 'spot' button; default is 'q' i believe, i rebound it to mouse4 on a logitech g5. from what i can tell, it makes it easier to pick out enemies vs regular spotting without the addon
basically you do the same as you would spot with any other class, any other weapon; put your crosshairs over (well, near) the enemy and hit the button. it puts the orange mark over the enemy, which is visible to all your teammates, and also marks them on the minimap, again visible to your entire team
so you can peek out for jsut a second, spam the 'spot' button, and very quickly pick out where there are enemies, a lot faster than i can visually recognize anyways. and if you spot an enemy at a distance and your teammates kill them, that's a quick 20pts for you for just marking them

I don't know why you think snipers do not move forward, this is a huge over exaggeration and mis-representation of a few lame players. I move forward every game, as do 90% of the snipers in my games. Once I get too close for long range sniping, I switch to M1A1 or Saiga and get up and in the mix with the medics and assaults taking bases and such. Once the game moves out again I switch back to sniping. There is a reason each class has multiple loadouts possible with different ranges, styles, pros/cons etc - lol - do people really think each class is a 1 weapon class?

Still havn't got the GOL, I keep unlocking this craptacular auto snipers.
Does the spotter scope flag people up automatically, or keep them spotted for longer? Mine doesn't seem to do anything at all, and lots of people from the EA forums have the same issue.
pzero
03-06-2010, 11:36 AM
it doesn't flag people automatically. i'm guessing it lets you mark people without your crosshairs having to be quite as close to them, but that's a total guess, and i could be 100% wrong on that, so if someone knows for sure, by all means
gol is the 3rd to last unlock iirc. then the vss, then the m95. vss is worthless though, and m95 isn't as useful as the gol

as far as i know the game doesn't keep track of it, a little message pops up right after you get the kill though (you'll see your kill +50pts, headshot +10pts, then marksman headshot +#pts)

I'm recon 90% of the time but I capture points. It's the ones who care about their kill death ratio and don't capture points or go for it, maybe take out KD ingame so it won't distract like beta?

this is for the back of ur heads people, he COULD be lying, just saying.
at 247 it's all about pure luck, trying one pixel at the time until u get the hit really.
I could say i got 248 right now and back it up with a cool story, but i only have 130 i think, thought that was VEEEERY far for a headshot.
if u have 247, that is truly awesome, an if u can do it 5-10 times next week, i wanna shake ur hand.

Where to see that marksman headshot score?
It's one of the scores/stats added to your kill. If you do a headshot you'll receive +10 for the headshot and +x for the "marksman headshot" (i.e. headshot on far away target (not sure how far, but there's a minimum range where you will get "+10 headshot" only). The further you shot, the more bonus points "marksman headshot" will net you.
How does the spot gadget work?
It's rather easy if I didn't misunderstood it/overlooked something:
- Without the gadget: 1x social button (e.g. Q) will spot one enemy unit (infantry or vehicle).
- With the gadget equipped: 1x social button (e.g. Q) will spot everything around your targeted position (infantry or vehicle). If enemy squads stand close one recon is able to spot the whole enemy squad for his whole team using Q only once.
My maximum so far has been 156 or so. ;) I love backstabbing people but quite often I just try to reach some hidden position not too far away from MCOMs to be able to take out some enemies and be a viable spawn in position for the rest of my squad.
And what about throwing motion mines? Some recon throws a motion mine into the MCOM building, tagging all enemies inside, receiving points if they die. You'd rather not know where those enemies are? If some recon is playing sniper 1000 m away from the action he won't be able to throw the motion mine that far anyway. ;)

241. On Isla Inocentes from the first mountain in front of where the Attackers begin to the second base the Defenders have. I read somewhere that a Marksman shot is anything over 100 meters, and its a point per meter after that. Not sure if thats correct, but that means it'd be a 341 meter shot, or 1118 feet.

New record, 337 on Port Valdez.
I died just before taking the first 2 M-COMs and re-spawned all the way in the back...ran up to the sniper hill, zoomed in to look around and there was a guy on the ramped part of the oil pipeline way back and to the left, nearly out of bounds behind the second two M-COMs. Was pretty far so I decided to take a pot-shot at him, aimed 2 dots above him and got the headshot :)
Unfortunately I also hit rank 13 and the magnum ammo doesn't seem to be available to me...

I don't know if it's my highest, but it was definitely tricky.
Atacama Desert with the M95 Sniper normal scope, we were moving on B and I was spotting and shooting from A. All the way opposite from me was a Sniper that was shooting on B. I literally just couldn't see anything but his muzzle flash and the spotting marker. It took about 3 shots to get sighted in, but when I finally hit him, it was about 200pts.
Another difficult shot was on Panama Canal, picking snipers off of C from the East with the SVU 12x, which is tricky since it takes two shots to the head plus the sun is in your eyes, however it worked; they never found me to shoot back, it forced them off the roof and made taking C easier.

This was with an m24, standard scope, no magnum ammo (im only like a level five or so)

At any rate the highest I've seen was a 350 done by some other guy and posted with a screenie in an argument about hit reg.

289 is my highest, but the one i'm happiest about is a 239 on a heli pilot. as defender, attackers had just taken the first mcom's, and i just spawned at the back of the 2nd base. saw a blackhawk in the distance, no other enemies in sight yet, so i figured, "why not try it"

+414
on arica harbor, i was defending on sniper rocks shooting into attacker spawn, with the M24
took me about 3 shots to get dialed in, but sure enough i got an enemy sniper. i believe it was the 3rd mil-dot, travel time was almost 1 second. was a great shot. my second highest is +389 on valparaiso, attacking in the lighthouse shooting up the hill into defender spawn.

You do know that by posting those pictures (no mcom attack/defend pins, not even a single motion mine assist) you are pretty much proving his point?

While I don't really want to pick a side in the argument, how can you say he wasn't helping? All those folks he killed in a single round? Definitely made it easier on the rest of his team to get into place and take objectives. Or he stopped folks on their way to an M-COM or on the outskirts of an objective as they went in to take it, etc.
Overall I'm just suggesting that there's a point when you're helping even if you don't go for objectives. Not always the case, but you can't rule it out.

This guy said he could make a 400+ marksman headshot with the VSS.
I told him he was a liar.
He made a video.

377 marksman headshot with the VSS.
His name is aelp on the forums.
If you see him, bow down.

A nice, round 160 on Arica Desert.
I've put marksman headshots behind me since, though. I swapped my M24 for a SVU red dot, and never plan to change back.

Best so far is 232 on a slightly moving target:

and attempting to prove that 500 is possible, tested it with a friend only to have some random guy join us. upon investigating what we were doing i decided to try and hit him. third or fourth shot hit while he was moving. also using the vss with default scope.

the youtube video of the 3 guys in the tower is proof enough though.

Well,it's not scored as a marksman headshot...but today, in Arica Harbor I got a headshot with a 40mm SMOKE GRENADE! It was pretty funny and satisfying.
Wrong thread, Maybe.
Funny as hell, and compelling to share.

It was ~67 using a neostead2k with SLUGS, pump-shotguns with slugs are boss.
Lie. You don't get marksman headshot with shotgun.

+216 on Port Valdez rush.
I was way in the back of the US base, some russkie player was on the vodnik laying down fire with the heavy MG turret. All I could see was the muzzle flash of the machine gun. I put the crosshair over the muzzle flash, guessed where his head would have been, added a couple more degrees and let 'er rip.
Damn near soiled my shorts when I saw the "Marksman Headshot +216" on my screen.

472 on Arica Harbor, had a 523 but it was on a set up non legit target.
I sniped from the attacker spawn to the very back tower in defender base to get the 472.

Pistol works, Shotguns don't.
I haven't gotten it with M60 either. And haven't seen anyone getting it with assault weapons either.

I got a headshot with shotgun on Laguna Alta. I was on the roof of C and he was way back on B, no marks man headshot.
Ok only coz I have a vid of it.
377 pts with the VSS.

Speaking of Marksman Pin. I haven't seen anything that looks like a Marksman Headshots pin: Do 5 Long Range Headshots (Marksman headshot)
That would be nice.
Or something like: Master Marksmans Pin: Be the best marksman in a round

well not sure if this counts. island inocentes 2nd set of mcoms and i out sniped a sniper on the middle island (he was on US and i was RU) using an rpg7.
on that map with the light house (rush map) at the 2nd US spawn i rpged a sniper on the 3rd floor of the light house.
Yea.
Something like
300 Meter Headshot <300 points>
this would break the game to a degree. cos if you shot someone at 200m suing any of the AR or Sniper rifles then you would be asking "why is my bullet dropping?".

04-19-2010, 01:19 AM
damn, some crazy shots in here.
I've only managed to land a +97, can't remember what map it was exactly but the 12x scope helped.
Anyone here a fan of the SV98? Just curious with all these Recon-mains

i started using it. i find sometimes my aim is directly at the head of a stationary target (compensated for bullet drop and all) but still miss, usually i find when i do miss the bullets veer off to the left, usually 1-3cms from your crosshair. i use it cos its something different.

around 130 from the beach by the town on Arica Harbor, up the hill to the watchtower by attackers second spawn area (where the russian tanks spwan on first Mcom).
Around 100 with the GOL, but I mostly snipe medium-range. Otherwise my motion detectors are worth **** and I can't keep up with my teams progress. Still really effective if you know how to use a handgun after the first CQC-HS from the GOL ;)

Wrong.
I have had many Marksman Headshots with my NS2000+slug setup.
you can do it with any weapon that can deal headshots, i guess.

Wrong. (your first statement at least)
I think the confusion is stemming from the fact that people don't realise that you can only get Marksman Headshots when playing as Recon. Any weapon you use as a Recon is capable of obtaining a Marksman Headshot.
Back on-topic; 270 is my highest - Arica Harbour, M95.
172 is my best with the NS2000.. :p
