Your BEST sniping kill?

I have many, so i'll just use my most recent. I parachuted onto the Zancudo control tower (the soldiers cant kill you & no police heli comes so you're safe for as long as you want). Oddly enough, pretty much the entire server was there too. So a group of four (one of whice had a bounty) were traveling southbound in a cavalade trying to jump the hillside to get in the base. As they approached approximately 100yds to lift off, I took the shot. To my amazement not only did I get the bounty, but I got his friend too. I would estimate the distance to be around 300-400 yards. Anyone with a better estimation please correct me, as im not that precise at judging distances. I was on the control tower at zancudo looking westward toward the highway where you can enter the base by jumping the hill.

Sniping in this game takes no skill, simply aim & shoot. So what's the best shot? Well that would be a shot where you can't see the player.

I asked 15 of my friends to stand in a small group next to a gas trailer while I stood 25 feet away and waited a few hours until I got my sights lined up and after they didn't laugh at my joke I shot and killed them all.

 

I felt like a big man and a bad ass at the same time.

 

Op their car must have been nearly destroyed before you took the shot and that is why you got the double kill while destroying the vehicle.

 

There is a story thread pinned.

I killed a guy so far away not even cars were visible. I did it again. I got a collateral on a players car really far away. I sniped a chopper full of players rotor out from maze tower (the helicopter was coming from sandy shores)

When I sniped people in tanks, nah just kidding, I sniped a guy in a buzzard a long distance away from the docks nothing relevant.

Yeah, I dont understand the reason they changed it. I know realistically you probably couldn't snipe a tank driver out (depending on weapon), but it made getting rid of tank abusers a little easier. Its not like everyone was even good at it. It took a little skill or a noob just blasting away for 10minutes till he got him.

I was on top of some tall building in the city being a jerk and sniping at anything in range. I saw a bmx'er casually riding around. I got him one shot but I had to lead him pretty good I was surprised at that particular one shot kill.

I was on a hill top near the dam, looking down on the highway that goes into the city. A car with 3 guys in it came down the highway at full speed. I took a shot, not really thinking it would kill anyone. I got the driver, 2 guys got out and I took them out while they were trying to work out what had happened.

 

But my best ever snipe was a guy in a cargobob, going west from trevors airstrip towards the military base. I could just about see the cargobob in my sights and took 1 shot, how the f*ck I hit him I still cant work out. He must have been half the map away.

I sniped someone out of a fighter jet once. They missed me on their first run, and I got him while he was VERY far away doing a loop to come back around. It was very satisfying. But I don't believe that is possible anymore at such a long distance, because players don't register to get hit by bullets anymore after the patch that removed tank sniping.

Sniped a pilot out of his lazer last night as he came over the Vinewood sign. The jet crashed killing some other player on the road below. I got the bad sport warning and then 2000 for continued good behavior....don't know if it was a trifecta or irony either way it was a good day.

Trust me, its very possible and pretty easy wants you get use to leading.

Where does it say anything about him destroying the car? He got the double kill because two of the passengers were lined up for the shot.

Well.. today this happend. Random Lazer pilot attacking people. So i snipe him a few times and he flies off. Then he goes off radar and i hear him fly. I however hold R2 and quick fired into the air when he was charging at me from above without using the scope. It was a direct hit and he died instandly and his Lazer crashed down with his dead body still in it.

 

Pure luck, not so much skill. But my most amazing sniper moment ever.

Picked off a friend who was riding away on a motorcycle while I was standing on the side of Mt. Chilad. Wasnt even expecting to him them but nailed them on the first shot. I think I was more surprised then he was.

Well, I've sniped helicopters from VERY far away directly in the cockpit where the pilot would be, and nothing had happened.

I assumed this was because they made it so you just can't hit him from that range anymore since the patch.

And I never see the little puffs of smoke anymore that I used to see prior to the patch. I don't remember ever having to lead them before.

 

But I don't know. I don't sniper very often anymore.

I stood on top of the maze bank, and saw 3 buzzards and a cargobob carrying a tank chasing a guy in a seashark (or whatever it is called, jet ski), I picked out my heavy sniper, shot a few times, the cargobob and tank crashed into the water, and then I shot 2 of the pilots out of 2 of the buzzards, the 3rd buzzard succeeded in killing the guy they were chasing, and then tried to find me, he then blew up because I kept shooting him.

Lol

still takes more skill then auto aim.

You're incorrect my good man. I said there were four and I killed two. So what does that tell you? As said already they lined up perfect as they were passing and the one round took them both out.

The COD fans would get hard ons hearing this lol. Great shot though man.

I second that. And he is lying anyway, because the shots I take I guarantee not everyone can do. Sniping on here definitely takes a good deal of skill. Tell me why I never run into many snipers like myself? Because it takes skill, thats why. Tell me CatchMeTrolling, how many heli/jet pilots have you dropped out the sky 1-3 miles away? Or better yet how many players you pick off going full speed 5 blocks away, traveling PARALLEL from you? Edited by SimpleJack_420

I have a blue tint on my heavy sniper, I don't even understand how this is even an argument, go play BF or something & you'll see the real challenge of being a good sniper. You can hit a damn jet that's going fast as hell and you expect someone to take sniping seriously in this game ? Lol yeah ok boast all you want , it's laughable.

A Buzzard full of players was chasing me in a Police Granger loaded with 7 of my crew members. He was on my ass, constantly firing rockets. I was panicking, so I drove off a highway bridge. I bailed out in mid air and while my car was falling, the Buzzard obliterated my SUV and all 7 players in it. I parachute onto a semi truck and quick scoped (out of suspense) the pilot. Boom, headshot.

James Bond sh*t right there.

not my best ever but one of the best in recent days...

 

this guy had a bounty and was fleeing with his friend on a motocycle, i stopped my sandking, when to the top of the truck aimed at the bike and fire, first shot missed, the second shot hit the gas tank, the bike blow up killing them both!

 

according to the waypoint, they were 1.67miles away.

 

not only i landed that really nice shot, but i destroyed the bike, killed 2 players and got paid 3k!

This happened a couple of hours ago..one of my finest.

 

Saw a bounty near the beach, grabbed my buzzard and landed on the clock tower.

 

Got the heavy sniper out, can see a bike (player not rendered) wizzing about on the pier.

 

He disappears behind a building, then ramps off the side of the pier into the air - BOOM - he hits the ground before the bike does.

 

Sniped him straight through his chest in midair, pure instinct. Must have looked awesome on his screen as it took him off, the bike just landing in a heap.

Ive had a few at very long distance, but number one has to be the one and only tank snipe I ever got just after I got my heavy sniper, not long before it was patched. Many yahoos and fist pumps on that one :D
