Whats the job of the spotter besides using binoculars and spotting enemies? (just to make sure being a spotter isnt boring) Giving close range protection for the sniper. If you mean my map, the spotter is pretty much the main character of the story. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NoRailgunner 0 Posted July 22, 2007 Spotter is very important in sniper team. - had to define the area where the team can engage without moving or shifting. - identification of target sector, primary target location and sets Target Reference Points (TRP). - makes range cards. - checks the wind. - announces where the round went. - responsible for the team's security. In games its different because lot guys only want to Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sniper pilot 36 Posted July 22, 2007 ..Another question:How "stealthy" can we be when fighting A.I? does crawling really slow helps us, or does A.i have x-ray vision? I've been able to get at least 10feet from an AI without it seeing me, took me a while and patience. Sometimes you think they are blind... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NonWonderDog 0 Posted July 23, 2007 The M24 and M107 are very different weapons. Their ballistics en route are different because of the different round (7.62mm vs 12.7mm) Nope. Not in ArmA. In ArmA, the ballistics are almost exactly the same. The M24 actually has a flatter trajectory, too, since it has a higher muzzle velocity by 50 m/s. Watch this space. Or rather, watch the mod forums. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Or rather, watch the mod forums. You are most likely correct. I apologize for my jumping-the-gun so to speak. The main point I wanted to make is not to confused the 300m vs 500m zero with the actual ballistics of the round. You could make a very "artillery shell" trajectory seem super "long range" just by zeroing the scope such that the round lands above the crosshairs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
