advice for someone that cant snipe in this game?

Either aim for the head or wait til they stop, but trust me you need good timing and to know the enemy spawns to get a good score, its all about timing in bolinas sniper challenge if you wait to long or are to shot happy you wont get a good score...... trust me

Grab a shotty and cloak. That's what everyone else is doing.

well if its the gun in the challenge you have to aim a tiny bit over their heads a times to get a headshot, if its any normal sniper rifle same thing but be warned any scope mods decrease ur accuracy so be careful lol

Honestly, I couldn't hang with the semi-autos. They just didn't do the DPS that a decent Assault Rifle with a good scope can do. For one shot, one kill - I say go manual.

As someone else said, go for the head - or at least what Counter-Strike players called the "upper triangle": head, neck, shoulders and upper chest. You can drop most enemies in two with it (which is more common anyway).

But I don't know much about the challenge, haven't tried.

I don't get Cloak + Shotty.

Blur + Shotty + Circle Strafe = dead whatever is in that circle.

I actually ended up getting past that challenge, with a gold surprisingly, so now I'm don't in Marin and got the coda scout outfit onto the next area...

Don't put a scope on your sniper rifle. Scopes are bugged and currently make guns less accurate rather than more accurate. Someone forgot that lower accuracy numbers means higher accuracy, which is, on the face of it, rather stupid. If a lower number is better, they should call the stat inaccuracy.

Heres the deal, So you're not good at sniping all you do is miss frequently or may be you just can't do a specific challenge right doesn't matter. Here's what you do basically you just take any sniper rifle semiauto or bolt action or brand-new charge rifles when they come out and basically what you do is you use it as a primary weapon you don't use any other gun unless you really have to. I recently finished the snipe from the shadows pursuit I II & III and i will say when i used the as a primary and basically making it the only weapon i use, i actually got really good, especially after that kill 5000 enemys with a bilt action sniper rifle, i got way better at sniping. I went into a competitive map and went 10-8 (not bad) and only used my sniper rifle.

You get used to it after frequent use. Hope i help a little.

Turn off aim assist for sniping (it is what is ruining your leads). Possibly turn down sensitivity. Turn on the Height advantage perk. If going for crits, aim for the neck/collar area.
