sniper shot animation

**Alok**

there isnt one >.>

Just thinking they should add an animation, at least brign the rifle up as if aiming while concealed... kinda annoyed that i stand still for 5 seconds, then bam, my gun appears out of thin air and the guy is dead

dont know if this was brought up before

I think that adding any kind of animation would make concealment even harder to maintain, it would probably end up breaking concealment all the time.

Sure. Concealment works too often imo SMILEY

Why would there be a sniper shot animation? You're in conceal.... Hes hardly going to do /dance4 and whip out a halsey and slap someone in the face with it...

I think the gun should at least be pointed towards the enemy when a shot is fired but anything that has a remote chance of breaking conceal is bad! SMILEY

I believe Conceal was fixed in the last update. Perhaps someone (a Dev I mean) could look into the possibility of adding an animation to Sniper Shot?

**RemagDiv**

I think it's better, but I did break out of Conceal after the patch, but it happens way less now.

Personally, I always thought that Concealment should use the same animation was Immobilizing shot (I think) where they kneel down on one knee and fire off a round.

However that would be quite awesome...

Anyways, I always thought it should have the same animation as deadly shot, though I agree that abilities working properly > pretty animations any day...

Well, our sniper rifles also aren't sniper rifles...

They're H&K G-36's and M16A2's.

I didn't know there were many more different ways to show someone owning with a rifle. Like, does it NEED to have its own animation?
