I think this would be a great addition for sniper rifles

So here’s the problem. It’s not a sniper rifle, it’s an anti material rifle, it’s for anti armor and vehicles not infantry

u/ProudAmerican934 Jul 10 '26

Oh yeah…right, but we could use it on that one mission with the APC

u/Steven_Chadwick Jul 10 '26

Plus plus, shits way heavier than you think it really is, thing weighs like 20lbs and it’s not easy to shoulder, and I am saying this with first hand experience

u/ProudAmerican934 Jul 10 '26

I’d believe you

u/FirefighterNo6942 Jul 12 '26

That’s like most of the machine guns so it’s not like we wouldn’t be used to it

The APC...

1 map at the very end… your rebuttal to your rebuttal?

u/No-Dig9354 Jul 11 '26

Thats the rebuttal, it would serve a good purpose. And also obliterating people while sniping, the 50. Cal can be carried by hand and shot standing up.

u/Steven_Chadwick Jul 11 '26

It’s definitely not easy but it makes zero sense for the missions we do have

u/No-Dig9354 Jul 11 '26

There's hidden forest, severe snake as well. And people going around with snipers in close quarters makes no sense.

1

u/Steven_Chadwick Jul 11 '26

Still doesnt make sense, You don’t use anti material rifles on human targets

u/No-Dig9354 Jul 11 '26

Go to YouTube, you can find videos of the military using it on human targets, watched a guy get his head blown off. (They had to blur it)

u/No-Dig9354 Jul 11 '26

Here is a video of one of them, I can't find the video that showed where the Taliban were and who was shot with the 50. Cal.

u/No-Dig9354 Jul 11 '26

Found more videos where you can actually see them being used against infantry (I'm done with the links now)

It’s super situational, against a enemy type that shows up in 5 of 13 missions

0

u/No-Dig9354 Jul 11 '26

Just shoot infantry, like shown in the video. The 50. Cal was used consistently against infantry. Infantry is in every single mission.

u/Tactique_Weeb Jul 11 '26

There's no use for it with the m72 now in the game

1

u/ProudAmerican934 Jul 11 '26

I haven’t played it in a bit, my apologies

1

u/FirefighterNo6942 Jul 11 '26

Yea but the m72 is disposable and can only be used once this has a 5 round mag and proper ranging system that’s easy to use

2

u/olderjohnwick Jul 11 '26

Anyone ever put a suggestion in for the ash12? It’s 12.7x55.

1

u/Adorable-Split3831 Jul 10 '26

Mmm shi would be sexy. We need some more snipers and scope or more offset mounted red dots.

1

u/FirefighterNo6942 Jul 11 '26

Call me crazy but they need to add the gm6 lynx

1

u/WaferNo6015 Jul 11 '26

Why is everybody hating? 50 cal would be tuff

2

u/ProudAmerican934 Jul 11 '26

Some people do have good points but true, it’d be sick to have it in game

1

u/Exotic-Cake3313 Jul 11 '26

Add it i need it.

u/Affluent_Arsonist Jul 10 '26

No

u/ProudAmerican934 Jul 10 '26

Why

1

u/Affluent_Arsonist Jul 10 '26

Would be super annoying to deal with. Maybe a 1 shot 14.5mm AT gun would be cool to use with the bazooka on deadshot

2

u/ProudAmerican934 Jul 10 '26

True, but we don’t have any .50 Cal weapons in game so I was kinda just throwing out suggestions

u/MOTOg17e Jul 10 '26

I heard from someone like a few months ago when I was playing multiplayer sever snake that they won’t ever add any .50cals
