Okay, so... yeah. Im on Operation Firestorm, rush map. The first two defense points, I run WAAAY back and climb the crane, then start sniping with the M98B, bipod, 12x scope, picking off enemy snipers way off on the ridge.
Im getting spot points, and each kill is between 700-775 meters away. So 100 points for the kill, flat out, then additional 750 or so points for marksman headshots, 10 points for headshot, and often a saviour bonus of 20 points.
I get 6 kills total the entire round, and I get MVP1 with 5000 points. Other snipers TRIED to get me, but one you get the first kill, you have your range found and know where to aim, the height in the scope, etc. Someone else on my team, as you can see, had 22 kills, and only 3000 points. Ha!
Also, my further headshot ever was achieved this round. 777m. Im not kidding. 777!

FA+

Most points for minimum effort?
Solid and my freind Charged do that with the mav all the time xD
I dunno, i just, dont like it when people just use exploits like that, it frustrates me.
That was a delicious shot. Just one too!
Then again, i prefer that to everyones love of the USAS15 and explosive rounds... >.> THAT is the worst... EVER
Seriously... high powered automatic shotgun with explosive rounds fast rate of rie and LONG RANGE?! can you say ridiculously overepowered compated to EVERY OTHER GUN in the game?! they need to nerf that thing so hard xD
Im one of those pricks that takes pleasure in hunting snipers
You wouldnt have ended up staying on that crane for long once id found you.
Solidscale has taught me well in the art of ninjaknifing!
Best so far was 9 tags in a round
And heh, failing knifing, im a pretty good long distance shot with the tank xD
Do you play PC, or console?
I know i know, start rant about how much better pc is n shit
