COD5 - Sniper Level

[sstein]

How do you do this.

I've been on it now for half an hour and have died countless times, I seem to have got a trophy for dying so much.

I don't know what window he is going to pop up in and as soon as he appears I die, I don't even get a chance to get a shot off on him!

A couple of times I have got a shot off the other bloke says something like it's only grazed him or some other crap.

How on earth do you kill him ? This is really doing my head in!

It took me 2 nights, I didn't really have the midas touch on it either.

That mission was a breeze, stand back and see if there is a patern to his movements then work it out and get ready to fire. If I'm honest that was the hardest bit but shouldnt take you too long.

I hate this game.

I have killed the sniper, finally, now I keep getting roasted downstairs. The other guy runs up stairs, if i try to follow him I die. If I stay down and kill the guys by the window first I get killed from behind by a flamethrower.

COD4 on veteran difficulty was hard, but not annoying, it was challenging. COD5 is just annoying and I'm not even on veteran yet!

Thats funny, my Mrs completed that level easily

this was the level where i nearly threw the disk out of the window. i enjoy difficult games but there were parts of cod5 that were ridiculously difficult and not due to challenging level design but the fact that you need superhuman reflexes and a stload of luck rather than skill.

now gone back to cod4 (until thursday!!!!1)

t'is a toughie. Took me a few hours to get through it.

I found the thing that got me through it was to listen to the other bloke (Uri) and work out exactly what areas he is referring to whne he gives directions, then look over that area you should be able to spot the other snipers shoulder. Before you fire though work out how he moves (i.e whether he goes left or right, high or low) then you can aim at the correct place before he gets there and hit him as soon as he moves.

I thought it was frustrating until I realised it was a sniper level and you have to do it like a sniper, take your time, learn your enemies movement, be one step ahead and only fire when completely ready. If you try and aim and shoot after the other sniper you will lose.

TBH, I have done the level a few times and no issues here. I would say just follow him REALLY closely and do exatly as he says...

Getting through the flames is a doddle if you stick close to him and don't loiter trying to shoot anyone.

Run run run.
