On a side note, who wants to play as a sniper in Airsoft? It is the most...boring job ever.

Unlike in IRL or what?

Anyway, you might as well ask why play milsim. What's boring for someone is awesome for another.

[Demon767]

Exactly so what was dark talking about then when he mention sniper classes?

I don't know, maybe a rental scope and a pre-conceived notion to only play in the back field.

[brn4meplz]

Oh and dark, i dont know how your armies are run but this is how ours is run.

Its a hierarchy. Every faction has a general, he creates the battle plans and passes the correct information down to the 4 platoon lieutenants (Alpha,Bravo,Charlie,HQ) Every platoon commander except the HQ platoon is in charge of coordinating 3 sections (Bravo section 1, Bravo Section 2, Bravo section 3) Every section has 1 sergent to recieve this information and carry out the battle plans.

n my section (10 of us) we all know eachother, i hope to be the squad leader of the section, or the corporal hehe. but anyways this discussion is exciting me more haha

Well thats not entirely accurate. You can buy barrel extensions. Tweaking your speed can be capped and a longer barrel will impart more stability on the projectile. Also, you can look into Rifling which will do the same thing. I'm sure high end gear has rifling to begin with but theres always room for improvement

No actual sniper. You just have to tell the ref that he needs to tell the other ref 100 meters away that the guy in green is now officialy sniped.

He can only do that 3? or so times throughout the entire 3 day event. Other than that, the sniper is just a regular player.

On the my event in particular there wasn't a real chain of command.

It was just the 1 team commander, he is the only official leader. He hands out the missions.

Then there is everyone else. You form squads to complete the mission, there is no official squad/platoon leaders. Now, the commander has to make sure enough firepower gets sent to complete the objective. If he wants to hand off a mission to a small group of skilled tactical guys who train together all the time and have thier own squad leader, he can.

But if he needs a more "brute force" type mission, like repairing a bridge with a heavy enemy presence, he will just get 1-2 engineers from different groups, fuse the groups together, and send them off. The fused group doesn't actually have a real CoC that we answer to though.

Yours is so much more organized because its the biggest event. Our event was mearly a small time one, so we were all a bit more casual. Im more than sure if I went to one of the larger events we have, there would be far more organization.

P.S. Oh, and I forgot to say, we, the russians, lost the event.

OP americans. Nerf

Seriously, the americans had like 25~40% more manpower than we did. Everybody wanted to be in the texas militia.

Ummm,almost every noobie wants to be sniper. Just look at all those films,snipers are awesome,having ghillie suit,moving unnoticed,striking from shadows,silent death yadda yadda..
Here rule for snipers is 600fps if it's bolt sniper,if it's semi auto like SVD then 500fps,and 400fps is for regular rifles. You do get some extra range compared to normal AEG,but not remotely close to what actually sniper in real life is. + upgrading sniper to 600fps if done right aint cheap!


Oh yeah,and mil-sim is teh best!

[Demon767]

We all are also encouraged to get radios but only Sgts, leiuts and the general are permitted to speak over it or it be a cluster fuck of grunts yelling out, "They're are over there!"

anyways, this turned out to be more camo then i realised haha. This is just a vest my father got from his work today, not the vest i was purchasing, ill give this one to my brother when we're on the field. But this one has the hydration pouch in the back damnit, doesnt matter as my hydration pack has its own straps so if my vest doesnt i can still use it

[brn4meplz]

That's a pansy ass vest Demon. What is that camo pattern printed on? Pleather?

[Demon767]

That's Australian standard camo for our terrain fool -.-

[tank130]

your terrain sucks

Why is airsoft superior to paintball:

[Shabtajus]

my friend is military guy so he also is chairman of air soft club so i have been few times times with them and i can say air soft < paintball

man in forest with jeeps and access to military training field was awesome and beer drinking after fight with 38 ppls 

[Demon767]

immaturity, immaturity everywhere.

[smurfORnot]

guy from my ex club got married,this is how it looked

[NightRain]

Playing as a sniper is painfully boring. If you get an AEG that works as a marksman weapon it does its job better than a boltaction one by every rule.

[Shabtajus]

well it was 19 vs 19 with some strat games and i liked it, those guys had smoke nades, and that military training field was awesome, so aint that imature ughh? plus expensive airsoft weapons is way better than paintballs weapons

ofcoure it is,but still countless noobs wanna be snipers,because in theory it's awesome,while in field it ain't.

[Scotzmen]

Hey look, kilts....

[Poppi]

how the hell do you know how you get hit with an airsoft?

[smurfORnot]

well,you feel/hear it,and in cqb it hurts quite a bit,specially if you get hit in the face!But it relies a lot on honesty of players. Thus it helps largely when you have good mature and honest group. And not bunch of commando idiots who think that they are the best and can't be hit,so they don't acknowledge hits or think that no one saw that they were hit,so they wont tell. 
So,good group is one of prerequisites for good game.
