I have search for other threads about this subject and cant find anything other than a brief mention but no reply, so how about it gullie suits for snipers and marksmen i remeber readin on here about grass dissaperin on about 30 meters away were the enemy can see u i dnt no if this has been addressed however if they had gullie suits they woulndt get spotted and agin on ridge lines it would make snipers and marksmen harder to spot as would be true in real life.
I also thought that it could be possiable to implement the cod system of holdin breath for shots on sniper or instead of that turnin down the time it takes to get an accurate shot on a target as i understand it its something like 8 sec turn it down to 4-5, or if ppl didnt like that idea stickin with the breath holdin have a 2-3 second holdin period were u get the target accquired hold the button and take the shot but has to be with in that 2 or 3 seconds or u miss the target, obviously this could be used with the already 8 second wait but could be used if there was multiple targets. As each breath was taken this could be taken out of the energy bar as if u were sprinting ie for every breath it takes a quater of the energy bar dnt no if ppl like this idea but have a gander and see wat u think.

For your second part, its already like that, with waiting 8 seconds. If you hit the 3 button again it will make a breathing noise to help you. Also it has been suggested before.

Man all the noobs coming thinking they are 1337, its a reason its taken away dont question the way of the devs,in sniper matter.
Marksman is not a sniper and is a part of a full infantery squad an dis there to give long range support. Sniper is a lonewolf or with another spotter(spotter kit is already suggested).
Ghillie suit dosent render at more then 40-100meters (100 at best) so its no real use.
and if you press 3 you will get a sound that tells you when your zeroed. Just wait until the breathing sound is finished.

Snipers don't wear ghillie suits in every single combat situation, in fact, its rarer to find them WITH one on that without it. As everyone else said, it doesn't even render at long distances so it makes absolutely no difference whatsoever. The rendering distance is hardcoded as far as I know. On top of that, not trying to burst your bubble but this isn't a sniper game - this is a combat simulator where people work together, not sit by yourself on a hilltop every single round. Also something to think about is that snipers are NOT meant to be total killing machines in Project Reality, more like recon units that relay information to the team and hinder the enemy where possible.
You might also want to think about that if this was such a good idea, wouldn't the DEV's have implemented it by now? The scope steadying is impossible - the breathing time added is the best possible solution on the BF2 engine. If you want a sniper game, PR definitely isn't it.
