They could balance it out by making it a bolt action rifle. So if you miss a shot it gives a player time to get cover.

It is bolt action, according to some stuff I read a while back.

Some info on the Sniper in this interview:

http://www.msxbox-world.com/xbox/features/article/131/Gears-Of-War-Exclusive-Interview-.html

Scroll down to "Question:Can you tell us briefly about the different weapons in the game?"

"There is a sniper rifle that were going to show you at X05 called the “Long Shot”. It’s actually like a high tech sniper rifle that is actually bolt action so you get that kinda best of both worlds. You get that nice scope and you see that nice animation."

Plixx use commas and periods. It's hard to read your posts and understand them correctly.

Well i assume your asking if you think the sniper is a good idea, and i think as long as they make it right and as long as it doesn't hurt the cover system part of the game its good

when he uses the sniper, the zoom just gets a close up but without an actual zoom using a scope. Is it like GRAW where you can just get a better shot or can you actually zoom in with the scope?

what you're talking about is the fine aim feature that is present in every gun (to the best of my knowlege) but I believe I read somewhere that youcan click the right stick and get a scope view.

YES! that is correct, not only can u go into "aim mode" with the LT with every gun, inculding the sniper but u can also click R3 to zoom with the sniper:)
