    It's kinda irritating that when you use a sniper, its bullets are the same speed as a shot gun, but shoots WAY farther. So, I think we should fix that. Each bullet should travel 2500 feet per second. If you don't like that, then make it 1500 fps. Snipers are meant to pick off a target from EXTREMELY long range, so the bullets have to travel faster then regular bullets so whenever it reaches the target, it's not flying at 90 fps.

    This is as true as ever. Basically, increase the speed of snipers to the same as the Raygun's. As for the autos, I think that they should have an increase too, but the exact amount I don't know. I mean, in CoD, you don't have to shoot ahead of the target that much.

    Isn't the Raygun basically hitscan?
    (never used it)

    He defined it as "feet per second".
    Which, granted, is still inaccurate since each block in Minecraft is measured by meters and not feet.

    3 feet in a yard, 3 feet and 3 inches (I think) in one meter. So 833.333 yards per second, and 735.294 meters per second.

    The problem is, this isn't real life.
    Putting that in would essentially make it hitscan because it's moving basically the entirety of the map in 1 second.
    Which removes all skill.

    Agreed with tac on the measurement. Although that is not what the post is about xD. Anyways I think this is a good suggestion and you are correct in parts.

    That was for the regular 2500 fps, 1500 fps is 441.176 meters per second, and 500 (EVEN) yards per second.

    That's still 440 blocks per second.
    That's still essentially hitscan.

    FINE we can bump it to 500 fps and get 147 blocks per sec. Not really should be nerfed any more then that. It just becomes unrealistic after that.

    Most of the arenas are around 200-300 blocks, IIRC?
    That's still pretty quick when you consider the engagement ranges in MC-War.

    But when you see someone shoot over the entire map (For instance, WMD) it moves REALLY slow. With a sniper, you are GENERALLY not going short range like 10-20 blocks. It's usually 200+

    well actually in real life it takes time for the bullet to get to the target. Therefore I like how it is because you have to aim in front of them.

    The snipers are fine the way they are if they go any faster it will make you lag. It already go's pretty fast anyway
