Sorry just need to say it the new SP-R 208 is WAY overpowered and needs to be nerfed.

[KillerFrost]

This thing is crazy over powered and insane. One shot kills from anywhere on any part of the body.

I think there are going to be a lot of posts about this weapon, I think if it is as OP as you say then it will unboubtedly be nerfed pretty soon.

I thought if l can’t beat them join them just in case it does get nerfed, so I have tried using it in the last couple of hours, there has been quite a few times when clearly it looks like l should have made a kill it hasn’t. One time I’m right behind enemy without him knowing l was there, shoot him, he doesn’t die, he turns around and gets me? Most of kills are not one shots l may get them in 2 or 3 shots? On the new map top of the stairs near the outside door, l see an enemy across of me on balcony surely from this distance it shouldn’t have taken more than l shot? Still alive after 3 shots? So many times upfront really close l am the one who dies?

I am also aiming for shoulders and above?

I've just unlocked this now, maybe I should give it a try too.

Yes have a go and let me know how often you get these one shots and how the gun works for you? If anything that l’ve mentioned happens to you?
It’s so weird how all of a sudden l will get a one shot! If l can get one like that then why not how else l tried? It’s not just the one shots I’m bothered about, it’s the fact they are still alive after a few on target. This is a rifle so it should have some distance. Bear in mind l levelled to 14 l think so maybe not the best attachments open but still in my experience it should work better compared to how everybody else’s seem to work.
Could there be any reason why mine is like this if nobody else is experiencing this?

I'll try it out later today and will post back and let you know.

I honestly think they do it on purpose.

Every time new guns are released they always seems to be way overpowered, and then sooner or later they get massive nerfs.

I have just taken it out on 3 different rounds playing Killstreak Confirmed.

I got about 15 kills and I'd say most were one hit kills. Even where I took a few shots at a target and only got 1 hit that target went down.

There were a couple where I saw I got a hot marker but didn't the enemy down and ended up with an assist or a kill and no One Hit Kill notification.

I find the gun hard to aim with and I think I rely too much on bullet spread to down enemies than I do on skillful aiming which is why I prefer a high rate of fire.

The thing I've noticed about OHKs is I need to get the hit before I get the kill, though when the hit lands it is really satisfying.

I shot this video clip, it shows me getting 2 kills, one where I needed multiple hits on target to down them and the second was a straight one hit kill before someone killed me.

The last one was a direct headshot at closer range, the first one was longer range and no way to tell what where you hit them.

Not really anything weird about imo

I wasn't suggesting it was weird, @Wiseowl was saying that she couldn't get one hit kills, in those 2 kills you can see where I got a hit marker before I downed that person and obviously the second kill was instant and both long shots, which is 1 of my biggest weaknesses.

I've now unlocked the 10-round clip and hopefully after getting a few more unlocks I'll be able to make it more usuable.

At the time when this was happening to me it felt like the enemies were closer than your first kill, l couldn’t see yours at all, lol, how did you know he was there lol! Compared to how enemies got me from a distance looked like you could go from far.

Anyway yesterday l had about 6 hours play using it and l managed to get the fast chamber, l am also using the sniper optic on it which l’ve never used before. I am definitely getting a lot more kills, l had one amazing time at Crash where l was the winner. I was able to kill two enemies with one bullet at Cheshire Park and at the new snowy map l managed to get play of the game with a triple shot. Oh also Hardhat another play of the game near the wall l used, Ak47 to shoot 3 people, quickly changing to the spr 200 and shot at least another 3 people very quickly, the play of the game didn’t show the Ak bit tho.

Before levelling it up this high at the beginning it did seem to work better than the day before, no sneaky shots from someone’s behind that didn’t kill! Got better and better! Not sure if it does need a nurf as someone has suggested tho! As long as l don’t get those lobbies where everybody is using it at the same time.

If you watch the gap at the top you can see a break in the light coming through when someone stands or walks past it, it's easy enough to see through my optics but probably gets lost when YouTube compresses it.

You just have to put the time in and you'll get there, I've put my SP-R 208 away for a while, I decided to work on completing Gun Master Expert level and discovered the FR 5.56, which is an AR that shoots rounds of 3 bursts, I managed to get 35 kills with 1 attachment and then 10-headshots with a reflex sight this evening, so that was fun. I'll be using the SP-R 208 later in this challenge for the getting kills with a DMR with 5 attachments part.

These are the times like that being able to record those final plays is what you really want, after a bad day I watch some of those and remind myself it's not always that bad. (o.~)
