can somebody make one

Yeah, i agree that would be awesome. Playing against a friend. If you're pissed off at someone you just blow his/her (for all you lady gamers) friggan head off. LOL

every topic i read that dustin starts is just fluff or nothing he always makes it seem so cool or important then we are all let down in the end :P

I think that would be too arcadeish... Unless it was a shotgun shot form 2 feet.... Other than that, you got SF2 commin out http://www.alliedassault.com/ubb/biggrin.gif

I agree, this game is quite realistic and the idea of a sniper rifle from 100 yeards away blowing the guys head off seems kinda soldier of Fortune. SoF2 looks quite good though, no doubt :P

Geezum-Pete! Kakorott, can you put some punctuation in your messages? I know this isn't English class, but crap, it takes me 20 minutes just to find the sentences in your posts.

yes barret makes a .50 bolt action but i believe standard issue is a 7.62 m40 because the .50 was inaccurate.

Well lets see, a Colt pistol could make a guys face cave in at point blank range.


I don't think the sniper rifles they used back then would decapitate them but it would blow the back of their head out.

More negative waves Moriartii! Have a litte faith baby, have a little faith.

50 cal sniper rifles aren't really designed for shooting people. (it is illegal in the geneva convention to use .50 cal rounds on troops)
(it is legal however to a soldiers body armour. very dodgy legal loop holes)
their primary role is to be used for destroying light skinned vehicles, such as jeeps etc.

i knew that was their original design but i wasn't sure if it was ever adopted as a sniper rifle anywhere. that's probably why it is called the "light" .50

my scout platoon used 50 cals for their snipers http://www.alliedassault.com/ubb/smile.gif all u have to do is shoot there kevlat helmets or the chin strap or there lbv and when its all said n done who knows anyway besides a 50 cal machine gun cannot be used against people a 50 sniper rifle can and a m40 which uses the 7.76 rd can take a head off 500 meters away

i'm sure the army would disagree. i dont think they use those M2s for paintball. but if you just happen to be shooting in that general area and enemy troops happen to walk there "accidents" do happen.

I've shot the .50 cal Dessert Eagle Hand gun. I believe that would take a head off. With the muzzle flash alone, I think it could be clasified as a flame thrower http://www.alliedassault.com/ubb/wink.gif

dude people can lose there heads from a sniper shot granted not from any of these sniper rifles but from todays sniper rifles they can so it wouldnt be too aracadish and tell me what is so real about this game besides the shoddy german language used..not much at all yea its nice to look at and it carry a very strong theme but its nothing but for fun and not for use of any historical refrence dont take me wrong i love this game but its nothing but action and if u get off easy thinking its realistic in any way besides how the town looks and weapons look and the language then u should be happy with a 1 cent whore on payday this game is about as real as sof or anything else that gives u realistic weapons with no real drawbacks from carrying loads of weapons and no actual real feeling to weapons (recoil,weight,barrel changes for the auto) if this is realistic then quake 3 or half life is real comeon get a grip on "reality"

lol, what gun are you talking about? even a .357 or .44 mag can't blow someones head off unless from almost point blank. lol, what rifle are you talking about that can make someones head explode from 100 yeards away? A missle launcher?

what sniper rifle are you talking about? a mortar launcher?

a 50 cal sniper rifle will make ur head n neck n half ur chest go boom
