How to start being a sniper?

[Khaki]

Remember that the sniper's deadliest weapon is his radio.

And/or his fingers..for typing

[Varanon]

Try the single player mission "One Shot, One Kill"... (Assuming you have combined operations ?)... but be aware of the fact that you are shooting from a hill over a distance of roughly a kilometer and you need to compensate for bullet drop.

By the way, you might mix up sniper with marksman

Selct single player

Go into the Armoury.

Play a few missions. As you play you unlock weapons, vehicles and aircraft.

After a while you will unlock the various sniper rifles.

If you then select a sniper rifle you are given sniping missions.

If you select AT weapons you are given AT missions.
