Well iv been playing blitzkrieg mod recently saw that snipers in the mod av some kind of select fire mode exactly like the tiger tank did from the TOV campaign. This made me think why couldn't we av this as an unlock for a doctrine/s. (One for Allies and one for axis to be fair but not sure which doctrines, possible more infantry based ones).

This is just an idea so don't flame. If been suggested before I apologize. Everyones views and opinions are welcome.

I'm just curious but how is this fire mode any different from hold fire + click to shoot?

It does have that nice loading ammo bar otherwise its no different.
(which would be cool if we could activate it on all units without the special fire mode)

only usefullness of this would be that it's easier for u to countersnipe or kill officers, but that's it.

this whole ToV direct fire was a fail. it only works on tigers... a bit. since u can actually tell the tiger to shoot on the blobbed part of the 6 man squad instead of on the lonely guy.
so if u wanna add it, add it to the tiger ace.

This mode allows you to shoot the guy of your choosing not jus right click and and a random guy gets shot. So lets say a certain guy has a weapon (shrek/zook) and you can click on that guy and he gets killed, either dropping the weapon or it getting switched. But everytime you av a certain chance to make that squad drop the weapon. Which could be really useful in split second situations.

You should check out the blitzkrieg mod. Most of the tanks av this option to go into direct fire mode (plus sniper) and its amazing. You get to aim your turrent at a certain point before you go round and get the first shot off. But im not suggesting it for tanks but the sniper.

When I click with my sniper on hold fire he shoots the one I click unless that man is out of range.

Never works for me. Just seems to shoot a random guy out of that squad even if I click on a certain guy.  Angry

maybe its cuz with mgs i micro my sniper to his max range so only the mg gunner can be shot Tongue great way to get 0.3 second of no incoming suppression.
