OMG authentic is hard as ****! I'm OK with all the crutches turned off but the lack of being able to save makes it over the top. Any tips on determining target distance and bullet drop?

Lol.. yeah the no save is rough. Makes it even more intense.
I usually look through binoculars and then make a judgement of distance and how much to raise aim. I just make sure I watch where first shot hits in case I miss so I can make a quick adjustment.

Score one for the devs.

Free multiplayer map hitting consoles soon. Should be on pc now.

Also some dlc single player missions (3 in total but I think 1 at a time released over the next 3 weeks) where you save Winston Churchill before the Casablanca conference.

Just picked it up. I'm really having a good time with it. I know it's no game of the year but it's fun. Sometimes that's all you need. Not every game has to be the be all and end all for me.

I agree, it is fun and I'm having a good time. My only big problem is what I feared going in is that the game lacks long-range kills. my longest is under 200m, and I can't really see the game allowing me to setup 5 and 6oom kills. It's a shame because that's what the ultimate payoff is for a sniper, not 63m headshots from a guy spraying mp40 bullets at you. Most levels you actually wouldn't do too badly not firing the sniper at all and just doing stealth kills and traps.

As I said earlier in the thread I have a headshot kill in bf4 over 1200m and regularly get 5-800m kills in that game. For a dedicated sniper game it's almost criminal to NOT include long-range opportunities.

I watch people play this online and it looks like a blast and not too hard to get into. Then I try and I end up with 2 kills and 10 deaths. Ugh.

As soon as I get my PC back up and running...I'm downloading this and going straight to MP.
I played a "No Cross" match on a good map on multilplayer....what a blast!
