    Guys i have a question about what to use for long range primary. I have the jolt in my secondary, and its amazing for close-mid range.

    For my primary, i want a long range weapon. I would use the first sniper, but i must have missed something because it seems to be a close range weapon now. Cant even kill in one shot across the map. Basically its useless.

    So should i use the charbtek, or the second semi auto sniper for long range? Im assuming the semi auto kills in two shots regardless. What about the charbtek?

    Could i get a response from the community manager?

    Why does the first sniper not kill in one shot across the map, with any setup of attachments? Ive tried everything. Armor piercing does not work across the map.

    I still don't understand what makes people like mc3 more than this? In my opinion this has improved in so many ways. The same happened with mc2. I guess some people have problems adapting to a new game

    the bolt action sniper doesnt kill in one shot? wierd

    for long range, use a charbtek with as many recoil boosting attachments as possible. sometimes i can kill snipers LOL


    @lolavi

    imo mc2 was the best game out of this whole series.
    simply because the gameplay was so smooth, and there were like 5 definite classes that imo were more or less balanced

    wish gameloft let you choose whether you wanted crap graphics or good ones. i would take bad gfx any day

    also mc3 has really bad balancing. ops is by far the best weapon, and athlete and armor are also the best perks.


    mc4, as far as i can see, has really good balancing, but unless you're on iphone 5 the game isnt perfectly smooth...plus its pretty buggy atm (although those bugs will get fixed with next update definitely)

    the only reason why i would say mc4 is better than mc3 is because there are no hackers.

    The game reaches the framerate locked limit on an iPad 4 and I'm sure an iPad 3. At this point A5 devices are getting left behind a tad; I don't fault Gameloft for not making the game run like silk on them.

    In answer to the question about long range weapons, the starter gun + CTS and recoil reducing attachments is the only way to go. Snipers are to underpowered at a range.

    Nope, test it out. Across the map (doesnt even have to be across, far less actually) it takes two shots

    Honestly im getting kind of tired of sniping in this game, its so useless compared to the UFIA

    EDIT: I take that back. As long as i use my jolt for primary use, and only take out the semi-auto sniper when needed it works pretty well. Went 24-2 in the first game i did this

    Bolt action sniper is oneshot kill with armor piercing rounds.

    this is complete bs then

    gameloft just made the same mistake they made in mc3 in that case

    why does gameloft make sniping so underpowered?

    Hmm... Match making is fine with me. I honestly have no idea what's going on with your matchmaking. Has to be your connection or something... Hope it gets fixed soon!

    What game modes do you play?

    I still get oneshot kills from across dog days and alert... Maybe I'm hitting above waist line then. Maybe even hittin headshots cause I always get oneshots. Except when noscoping or hitting the legs.

    Yeah exactly they seriously need to fix it.

    Either you arent as far as we are saying, or youre just hitting heads. Im talking about one person on the staircase, and one person in the other base, all the way across the bridge.

    Im positive that its not a one shot kill to the body at that distance. Which is stupid as hell

    Decently, certainly playable but with the occasional framerate drop I hear.

    If you use armor piercing rounds it is a 1 shot kill.

    I just bought a iphone 5 two nights ago. I can't believe the difference from my 4s. The game now runs silky smooth. I'm able to play so much better now bring the game is running flawlessly. I can now aim down the sights and shot instantly where my 4s would take a split second more which in this game is everything. My k/d was about .85 and now I'm close to 1.25 after one night on playing. I can't say this enough but the iphone 5 is a real powerhouse and you really have to see the difference for yourself.
