I was more talking about snipers from the attacking team that spam the mortar strikes on the objectives.

Well that's what you use...but oh man it has range...here is a video of a sniper...

[Feared]

Yeah.... that seems like a blast to do... but if EA/DICE is watching they need to fix that.... there is no way a Shotgun should have anywhere near that kind of range... even with the 12 Gauge slugs.

and people thought the Models were bad in Modern Warfare 2.

Dang I just tried shotgun sniping in Campaign mode and it does work pretty dang well.

I'm actually becoming decent at this game. Especially now I have a repair tool, health packs, and a defibrillator.

It's annoying when everyone sits and snipes, but as a sniper you kinda have to pick a spot and snipe...it's not a good up close weapon, not that many more options.

Just need a well rounded team I guess. I tried recon today and getting more used to it...just need a better gun by far (one that doesn't have to re-**** every shot), but it's fun. Still prefer medic first, then assault or engineer, but want to unlock a bit more of the Recon so I can use mortar strikes if I ever need.

MGO - That seems to be the only sniper gun I can get a kill with. The others will automatic shots I always miss.

Interesting...I guess I just need a better scope...if I get too close I'm a very easy shot for them, so since i'm farther away I sometimes miss my first shot.

Just have to get more used to it, I got a lot better over my first attack/defend session...Really have to learn how to lead a guy when he's running, I miss a ton there.
