why the hell is it so hard to do in this one, in bf2 it was fun and easy this one its just fustrating... why cant you lock on

First, it's called "Sniping," not "Snipering."
And that's the point of zooming in. You shouldn't need to lock-on.
I havne't tried this properly yet, and I doubt I will.

i knew that.... now you made me all sad, hope your happy, lolz.

yea i guess so , just so annoying lolz

How?
Oh and I just love making people sad.

well its annoying by me sucking at aiming, lolz, .....

Anyway...

What are you talking about? Snipers HAVE NEVER LOCKED ON in the entire series. A sniper rifle has no lock capability, it's a freakin' sniper rifle. Locking with it would be way too unbalanced.

The only problem with sniping in this game is the idiots not adding an option to remove the inverted aim for zoom scopes. What kind of idiot aims a scoped weapon with inverted aim? Only aircraft should ever use that function, for pitch, damnit. (I just really hate game developers that aren't real gamers)

bf2 on xbox had lock on for sniping, i played it a few days ago, then i realized its really hard on RS

I don't think Battlefront II on PS2 did. I'll try it later on today. Or now...


Ok I just tried it, and yes, it does have a lock-on when sniping. However, if you think about how much the bullets curve on that game, it doesn't matter anyway.

Lock on? I think you mean the enemy marker, right? (Target tracking) It doesn't actually auto-aim like standard BF1/RS lockon does.
