Snipe spots--Post em here

Post by lax »

These are just some snipe spots that i know of, no the basic ones that anyone can get to, but the more complex onese. im not claiming to of discovering them, im just letting you know about them. and i dont care if you already know these spots, so dont tell me how old they are.

theres two in accentation first get ur ammo, then head over to the banshee, once in, fly over to the part with the two huge poles sticking out, then fly a little behind them, there should be a place to land, jump out, then walk up the pole, ans snipe away.

The seccond one is on the other base, grab ur ammo, then once again head over to the shee, and fly over to the other base, go like ur going to land on the part u can walk up to, but before, you get there, your going to want to fly above it, and go in from the left or right side, when your coming right at it, then fly into the small part and jump out of the shee and then u can snipe.


The next is in coag. of coarse there is the one where u fly up to that rock, and jump, out, but also go ontop, none looks up there, its very easy, just go up on the left side, and jump out to land one it, and snipe

The other is over in the rock feild, u can grab a shee, and land ontop of the tall rock, or u can walk, teleport over, to the rock feild, go to the second biggest rock, next to the wall, and walk backwords the wall a bit, then crouch jump on too of the rock, ur not very high up, but usually none will look there.

the last one i can think of right now is the one as your flyingtowards, i think the red base, i might be wrong, (sorry) turn left, there is a small ledge to land on, then snipe away.

There are 4 i can think of on zanzibar, the first is where you go over on the beach part, then up to the rock walkway next to the shade, then as you looking at the shade, look left, and crouch jump, to the ledge you see, if you cant get over there crouch jump, and then push ur mc to the right when ur in the air and u should land on a ledge, then jump up the rocks you should be looking at, then jump up there, until there is no more to jump up.

The next is doing the same thing, look at the shade, then to the left, then jump over to that ledge and jump over, but instead of lookin at the rocks to jump up, turn around and u should see some kinda piller like rocks, jump on top of these and jump acrosse till you get to the rock roof type thing, and snipe from there.

The next one is very easy to get to, if you just grabbed the sword , jump out of that place that the sword is in, then turn right, and head to that structure, go up the left walkway, and grab the sniper , and then go over to the right walkway, but dont go down it, if you are looking down it, turn around, and go up that grass hill, usually none will see you up here.

The last one i can think of, thats not going out of bounds, is on top of the roof, of the building, you need two people fist go to those windows with the metel things above them, above where you open that jail looking door, then go out the first one and crouch jump up top to the second one with the metel thing above, then get ur other person, to jump up there with you, then jump on top of there head, then jump on top of the roof, do not do a grenade jump, or u will break the metel thing above you.

The other three i can think of is on headlong, (the city one right? lol) where u get ur ammo, then grab the shee, and fly up if your looking at the farris wheel thing, turn around and you will see a small slopped area, fly up to that, and park ur shee on it, and jump off, and walk all the way up as far as you can, the other is to the right i think.

The other one....grab ur shee, an ur ammo, and fly towards the farris wheel thing then land on top of it, and snipe.

The other one is in waterworks, grab ammo an a shee and fly up to where that smashing thing is then fly to the left, and there is a ledge to land on.

The last one i can think of is on lockout, grab ur ammo, and then walk up to that one base up top, not the one with the roof , but the other one, then jump on top of the short wall, and slowly make your way to the kinda like radio tower, intenna thingy, and slowly walk to the egde, an snip from there.

This is all i can think of, if you have more, add them here....

It's good to know multiple spots if one wants to be that annoyingly good sniper :wink: . Plus snipers relocate a lot :wink: .

I know a lot and create new ones spontaneously all the time, because I play against the same 3 fcuks everyday and they know me :( .

Colossus
-I like the cubby holes, just pick one. It's hard to explain exactly how but I'll try. There's a platform w/ BR I think, grenade jump + crouch your way in. (practice)
-Where the SR is located look to the right or left, and hop out there on the slanted ledge if you're feeling bold. Sometimes obvious is better, sometimes.

Lockout
-By the grav lift thing, upper-level tucked away behind the wall (left or right) When someone takes the lift they'll fly right past you, switch weapons or no-scope 'em.
-Obviously ontop of the SR base... not going to explain, but I get up there with 2 separate grenade jumps when nobody is looking.

Ivory Tower
-(1 of my favs) Walk up the OS ramp and before you get to the PP stop and look to your right. Carefully walk off the ramp onto a ledge next to the fence, then crouch and walk under the ramp.
-Just stand at one end of the top hallway zoomed in 5x while your friend watches your back, that'll lead to some kills.

I've got more but I got to go.
I vill destroy Noobs, make arms & legs tvitch when die!

I think you are wrong about the third one in coag, you fly behind blue base and fly up towards the invisible wall, and if you get out at this one point you should stay on the ledge and the banshee will fall. I know cuz Im a hardcore sniper!!!

Its also a really easy place to get out of the level if you have friends who are already out, you just have to sword cancel to them on the other side and youll fly through after a couple tries.

Ok thers two ledges,

Get the shee and head towards the blue base, and fly right over it, and keep going, and you will see the ledge you can land on.

The second is if your heading towards the red base, and you go over to the left, (dont turn around, but behind you should be the trees) and keep flying, you should find a very large ledge, that u can park ur shee on, and get out.

Its especially frustrating in matchmade games cuz everything happens so fast and it seems rushed, but I usually dont have much of a problem in custom games with people I know.

this isnt really a sniper spot, but, where the sniper rifle is, go left(facing
the elevator) and you enter the big area where the shotgun is, but
off the ledge and infront of you are 2 trees, jump in either one of them
and it is IMPOSSIBLE to see you, you have to have your reticule close
to them and see there name to know their there

My favorite level for sniping has to be headlong cuz there are so many places, you can pretty much go anywhere with a little cover and snipe the hell out of people :mrgreen: .

Or someone stands on one of those little post thingys infront of it and he jumps, then another person sword cancels when he reaches the top of the jump, we got all the way to the top of lockout doing this. It was pretty frickin high, I dont exactly know how to explain it so if you dont get it, Ill try and get one of my friends to do a vid.
