How do you guys feel aboutr this as a sniping spot (Elektro)?

[thequantum 52]

Although I'm limiting myself to one location (power plant), I feel like I have pretty good cover.

Thanks for sharing.  Now I know where you are ;)

Many many people go to that firestation, and sniping takes patience. I think that, in a 40/40 server, you would have to wait 15 ~ 30 minutes to see someone there. Taking the shot is also difficult and after 400m the mosin is unpredictable. But yeah, as I said, sniping takes patience. 

You could get some kills, but I also think you could easily be spotted.

is old favourite from mod days for me :D

That's the first place where i would look for a wannabe sniper...

I prefer finding spots where it's not common thinking that anyone would be "there" and snipe. Finding these spots are exciting and makes you think, "why doesn't anyone snipe from here?" These unusual spots are the best to me because you have a lower risk of people scanning the area, like they do the usual spots like, high up on sniper hill, the hill behind the hay bales, or the rookie spots like roof tops, lol...

All camping spots are one shot only places. It's not my preferred game style as I don't have a vagina, but if you are going to camp and snipe you need to find a different spot after each shot. 

[acoastalhero 46]

Terrible dude to be completely honest.

 

You need to find a small bush just to the right of that tree and tuck yourself in there, a million times better because you can see much more and you are a lot harder to spot.

[monolith1985 109]

wont make much of a difference to those who lower their graphics making bushes alot easier to see through

also, you on "counter sniper hill" named that because other people go there to shoot whoever is on sniper hill, so chances are its not that safe.

also, if you are there, it looks like you are just watching people going into the power plant just to snipe them, without motive, rather than protecting friends in town going to loot, so I hope it ends badly for you

Fun fact: I know 3 girls that play DayZ. None of them snipers because "it's too boring lying, waiting just for one shot at a guy that doesn't see you."

400m? I have it ranged at 200, according to the map I'm using.

 I don't have any friends. After about twenty hours of gameplay, I realized you need to kill others and take their loot, before they can do the same to you. That's why I snipe.

 

This is another new spot I started using this week, but it gets much less traffic.

OP what is wrong with your right hand? Is that a thumb? WHAT is it?

You ate some zombie flesh recently, didn't you, you poor mutated bastard? :D

[Iezza 108]

How is this sniping spot?

 

0/10

All textures and graphics are turned down to the lowest level to increase FPS and allow me to better see players. I don't care if the trees look pretty, I care if I can see the guy hiding behind them.

You've never heard of Elektro Sniper Hill West and East have you? ;)

So you exploit graphics so get cheap kills, cool.  You're my new MLG hero.  You're also the kind who probably tries to edit the config files to remove grass and flora so you can see players laying in fields  <_<

It's NWAF, you should get a cmopass and GTFO the coast, seriously, you have a lot to see and experience in North.
