does every sniper gets a M82 if he finished the snipercourse ?
-> then you should think about using the M82
if not use the sniperrifle every sniper gets after finishing the snipercourse
What we have to remember is that the "sniper" is a special kit, it have a special weapon and special equipment. The sniper will use the M82 cause it can take down special targets that the other kits doesn't have the chance to do. All the Norwegian "sharpshooters = sniper/marksman" use different weapons, some of them use HK 417, M82 and other weapons. I was watching a post on Forsvaret.no | _Utvalgt.no a web page for the Norwegians that have to serve mandatory military service (pass worded page). On that page some one had asked what "snipers" we use. The officer that answered the question told, that the MN 149 will be removed, and they will use M82, HK 417 etc instead.Amok@ndy wrote:just a short question

But why do the Norwegian Forces need a heavier caliber sniper rifle, while all the other factions are using 7.62 rifles? And what are those 'special targets'? I don't think the sniper is supposed to have an anti-material role in PR. The AWM (also in use with NF, afaik) would do the job of killing inf. at long range just as well, wouldn't it? And, of course, this weapon will attract a lot of nubs, no doubt. The idea of running around with a .50 cal sniper rifle (and also the fact that it'll be the only one in PR) will make them go all nuts, and do whatever they can to get that rifle. Why do you want the M82 so badly, if you're the only faction who wants to use it.'[R-COM wrote:pleym;1211958']What we have to remember is that the "sniper" is a special kit, it have a special weapon and special equipment.

The thing is that we want some variation from others, whats the point with different forces/factions if they all use the same gear?MonkeySoldier wrote:But why do the Norwegian Forces need a heavier caliber sniper rifle, while all the other factions are using 7.62 rifles?

good idea but please stop this discussion now!Kirra wrote:How about letting the player choose?
Left click - anti personnel rifle
Right click - the M82
Just give it larger bullet drop (heavier round) so it will be harder to hit targets unless you have actually practiced with it.
as previously mentioned, this is a discussion between the Norwegian Faction-team and the DEVs. However feel free to express you opinion on the matter, but know that the NF-team are quite determined.Maxfragg wrote:much more improtant, could we stop this unrealistc balancing suggestions? i mean, a .50cal sniper should not be nerfed in points of range, since its made for extreme range, but hey, it does not matter anyway, since the devs will not allow the M82 as sniper rifle, and because they decide how to balance the mod

You knew that you could expect such a response from people. Every M82 suggestion thread gets locked by the mods, and most of the community knows why. If the Norwegian Forces would implant it, other people would suggest the M82 for other factions too, with the argument that the Norwegian Forces have it implanted too. So yeah, you are creating kind of a stir, so it's normal that people start arguing about it, you can't blame them for that. Furthermore, whats the use of this thread if people aren't allowed to discuss the media you displayed? Just get rid of this thread, if you don't allow discussions about it...Zeno wrote:good idea but please stop this discussion now!
