Barrets have one shot kills, but you'd have to either be a pretty good shot to pick a hit on someone whose not stationary. The reload time is pretty long, so if someone is using an automatic weapon, they can kill you easily. It's not that unbalnced. I mean, the m-79 pretty much has a one hit kill and no one's complaning about them. So what if the Barrets fast? The slow reload time per shot balances it out.

Maybe its just me though...

barret is just an entirely different style of play.

It's all about firing then dissapearing as quick as possible while you reload. To many people who'd prefer to fight than hunt down someone who runs away most the time it can be a little annoying.

We all do this with all weapons having some marginal reload time, it's just far more important with the number 8.


Fortunately, now that 1.2.1 is out the barret is forced into this style of play. Whereas before just being a fast target was enough to survive on. So thanks to the bink effect, here marches true snipers - deadly, sneaky, evasive, and annoying.

Alas, replacing my old sig with this one makes me a hypocrite, but whatever.

Oh alright... ¬_¬

it annoys the [:-censored] outta me still, but then any sniper in any game would,especially in a tight corridor like some snipers resort to alot.

It's definitely fair though.

Save the image to your pc, upload it to some webspace, get the url of the uploaded image, go to edit your profile ('Profile' at the top right of the page) and put [IMAGE] in your signature.
