brazil201 Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 How far do you think you will be able to snipe people with it. Will it zoom in 3 times or 4 times. Will it have red lazer scope Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FullMetal Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 Check the Weazel News trailer and you'll notice what kind of 'scope'/'aiming recticule' it has. My guess it that it'll be somewhat the same as the previous snipers. Same zoom, only perhaps more accurate and effective at a greater range?

Fabio206 Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 Shoud be a DSR-1 and I think the power is increased but zoom is the same as in gta4.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brazil201 Posted September 27, 2009 Author Share Posted September 27, 2009 zoom in 3times instead of two is all i could think of Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheat Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 I don't know, looks way cooler tho'. Anyways, I'm not too excited, 'cause snipin' ain't never been my number one hobby in GTA's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockteur Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 I wonder if it can shoot through walls? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same, atleast not for free roaming, it is fun shooting the pilots of the heli's and watch it crash But missions with snipers are always awesome!

d.nivatkar Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 C'mon man, thats the Walther WA2000, Agent 47's sniper rifle of choice It will depend upon its caliber, 308 Winchester or 300 Winchester Magnum BTW there are only 176 total WA2000s in the WORLD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carnage1120 Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 I hate sniper rifles when it comes to every shooting game, be it Halo, call of duty, or Metal gear solid Everyone has a hard on for the sniper rifle. I would rather stick with my assault rifle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little William Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 No, No, and No! The sniper rifle in the game is not a WA2000 It is a DSR-1!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d.nivatkar Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 My bad dude, should have looked carefully instead of assuming that all bullpup sniper rifles are WA2000 Generally the DSR-1 is pretty 'obscure' to say the least in the mainstream gaming community The pistol grip and the dual magazines give it away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darkshade12 Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 I'm hoping this rifle will have better damage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isuck100% Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 I believe previews have said it's a semi-auto sniper rifle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VolksONER Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 On the gta site it states that it has greater range. Also what if it was a DSR-50 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slomojoe Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 it looked like the M-21 from COD 4 to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tuff_luv_capo Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 It doesn't matter if it zooms in X1000 times, peds only spawn so far away from you. 3X is definitely the limit before it's redundant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blowdro420 Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 (edited) why is everyone saying it's semi-automatic? of course it is. who's heard of a fully automatic sniper rifle? and i don't' mean a fully automatic assault rifle with a scope.

aChaChaCha Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 Still think the new sniper is useless compared to what else they could of added. A rocket launcher that doesn't sometimes swirl completely past where u shot maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dabaannz Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 Still think the new sniper is useless compared to what else they could of added. A rocket launcher that doesn't sometimes swirl completely past where u shot maybe? A rocket propelling past it's target is a result of poor aiming... the trigger for the explosive on an RPG is at the tip, so it needs to hit a solid object. When it goes undernieth a car or bounces off a wall (aside from being an amazingly accurate detail in the game) just means that you've aimed it at too much of an angle. On topic. I'm still a little dissapointed with the decission to add a new sniper rifle... I felt the combat sniper worked fine for the amount of time it's required, and I personally don't find myself using it much in freeroam. I was hoping for a few more melee weapons, but it really comes down the the characteristics of the protagonist and weapons that suit the story. There must be a need for this kind of weapon, so there will obviously be more sniper based missions in this episode... plus I think we'll be spending alot more time up on roofs anyway (parachute).

What you said plus rockets CAN be shot off course. I've seen it quite a few times in death matches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aChaChaCha Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 Yeah ok, my point was primarily that the new sniper is a waste of extra content space frankly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STRICK13 Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 i agree the sniper rifle was a waste if they should of added melee: meshede,pistol 44 mag revolver,hevy sniper(.50) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d.nivatkar Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 The DSR-1 is bolt action, not semi auto, unless you somehow convert it Also another question that pops up is Luis' background, is he a dishonorably released ex-army / special forces guy with some 'inside' source who sells him such advanced weapons for a criminal ?
