If that ain’t what constitutes a sniper, I don’t know what does.

Why did you bump this up? And I don’t mean this in any sort of offensive way but how long have you been playing? Paintball “snipers,” (as they like to call themselves), like the bushes and trees, they work to their advantage as well as everybody else’s. And as for the guile suit, yes regular camo works well but not as well as a guile suit, with the guile suit you are almost invisible, but I think that those kind of tactics don’t help your team so nobody use them.

Once again, I am not saying these thing in order to offend you or anyone, my only intention is to be informative and state my opinion.

Anyone who has played REAL woodsball knows that a true "sniper" is impossible, because there is so much crap outside (trees, bushes, etc.) that a paintball really can't travel more than like 30-40ft. And if you're playin real woodsball, you wont need a ghille suit because normal camo works phenominally in the bushes

p.s. WDR did a special on this sorta recently, dont have the link anymore though

Judging from the way my paintball day went today the answer would be walk into ambushes, fall in streams,and get shot a lot.

I've also noticed that the individual he was referring to has 4 posts and has been insulting in both of the two I stumbled across so far. For this I award Halokid one of these .

snipers are noobcakes b/c paintballs only go so far and are not accurate enough. And i feel sorry for the kid who got owned by a sniper b/c if he was playing in any tourney i ever played in the sniper would get shot about 200 times w/ that setup.

mt vigilante u annoy me to no end. snipers stay in a concealed position and shoot from one spot. stealthy players crawl around undetected

That is a common misconception, you don’t have to hide in a concealed location to be a sniper, snipers are just good shots, and I think that those who hide in one spot hoping to get one or two guys out are not helping there team, they need to be up moving w/ there team and using there shooting skills effectively.
