    As all of you know that the only one hit sniper without a head shot is the l120_isolater. the other guns like the l118a, barret, msr, etc... are two shot guns without a head shot. If the snipers were coded to be one shot in the chest and head area, it would work. Before al of you rant saying that then what is the point of the l120_isloater, you got to realize in the CoD community, people are not running around calling each other sniper noobs. Its just logic really. All snipers are one hit with a chest shot.

    How this will affect each sniper?
    Bolt action rifles iso and barret would be one hit, but for example, the isolater would be insta kill everywhere else. However, all semi auto snipers will retain their current damage.


    Ammunition balance
    Barret .50: 32 shots
    l120_isolater: 64


    sniper balance:
    two on any part of the body that is not a headshot or chest shot.

    conclusion
    The players might be raging at first but at least players will be able to match up against the higher level players who use the l120_isloater all the time.

    Edits: Only iso and barret will be one hit, all other snipers will have their current damage.

    I'd be fine with it, but I'm sure a lot of people would be the kids they are and scream about how op it is and how everyone is a noob
    Also, in real CoD, low level weapons actually kill and the high level weapons aren't 5x more powerful

    Oh, and the Isolator would be greatly underused. It needs something to bring it back.

    I'd just use dissa every round.

    30 clip ISO that shoots 2x faster. Get. On. My. Level.

    Pretty sure a majority of the players don't want every sniper to be buffed since chestshots are easy to get. Just imagine how many players would think using any sniper is nooby.

    i would be fine if the fast firing snipers kept there dmg and fire rate. That what makes them fun even though they arent one shot. If you ask me, the barret is the only one that needs a buff, maybe making it one shot.

    This is an odd answer for me I know, usually I'm all for this, however, let's be real here. The l18a is a default weapon. We don't want people figuring out that snipers are OSK weapons and then having an entire server of l18a/Barrett users. We all know it will happen, and we all know how it will make the rest of the community feel. All of the sudden we have players who are like me when I was level thirty: "guys guys guys guys. Check me out, I'm a sniper GOD and all shall bow before me" (yes this is an exaggeration but you know what I'm trying to say). Just think about the cons before we go all in on this idea okay?

    (Also: before you get the wrong idea, this is NOT me trying to hold on to my Barrett/my source of noteritety, so calm your ruffled jimmies)

    Obvious issue here is unbalance. L118a suddenly becomes more powerful/useful than most of the other weapons, even as a starter gun. Nobody would use anything but snipers. I feel like this is something better suited to real FPS games, where sniping is more difficult and actually makes sense.

    Then would the iso be important anymore?

    With less damage but apart from that you're right.

    I personally feel this is a bit too OP. If both head and chest were 1 hit kill, thats more than half the body. This would make the drag and l188a just as good as the prestige weapons. I see that you are triying to balance the guns out, but there also has to be difference between prestige and starter guns :v

    I don't think lowering the iso ammo to 16 is a good idea either. Prestige players without scavenger rely on iso due to its high ammo. Take that away and they have nothing good to use, making mc-war even more pay to win. The iso does not really benefit from this feature. This would also make snipers useless in infect if you don't have scavenger.

    The barrett should be the OSK sniper, not the iso
    [​IMG]
    The giant round is Barrett ammo, Second biggest round is the iso round

    Let's just say that the Isolator fires a bullet that explodes as soon as it hits. Boom, OSK.
    That has always annoyed me for so long. The fact that the L115, which fires .338, is stronger than a .50 BMG round is wrong and is why my RPs always switch the M82 and L115 (and/or switch them with different weapons)
