I still think you should go for it. I mean sure, you can have the great effects like, hands shaking, breathing, heartbeat, wind, and gravity. But shooting isn't the biggest part of being a sniper. Being a sniper is about stealth, and finding targets. Anyone can shoot a rifle, but not just anyone can walk through a heavily guarded area, without being spotted.
And that's something ghost recon can simulate.
So even tho shooting is just point and click, it'll still be really fun.
Also moving targets at 300+ meters can be difficult to hit. And you're also thinking the wrong way, if I made you shoot at a target, even a moving target 300 meters away, do you think you could hit it? Ok, now make the same shot with a 4X scope.

haha yes, excluding all of the mods on my other computer, I have a 16.7 GB mods folder...
-
I'll also recommend using a lot of maps that aren't used much.
I've played a lot of good missions that were brought down by the fact
that they were made on maps I'd played too much.
-
hahaha yes, you should use Ayu's hyper stealth cammo for the enemy snipers.
-
Well if you decide to make it, I'll recommend either CentCom, Force Recon II,
or Alpha Squad 2.6, for the required mod.
Hope you do decide to make this, ghost recon really could use some great sniper missions.
-
Not very good.
You'll only find a truely good sniper mission, every now and then.
So a sniper tourney would probably be a good idea.
Little advice tho, have you ever played sniper elite?
That's how your missions should be set up. Hard as hell unless the player plays the mission the way it was ment to be played, and thinks like a sniper, not relying on his speed with the mouse, but rather on range to target, and concealment to keep him alive.

Well if you like ghost recon now, you'll love it after you get some mods.
I'll recommend:
Alpha squad 2.6
Barrett rifles
Centcom
F-18 strike
Force Recon II
Frostbite
H&K Assault special
Kalashnikov armory
LW15.499 mini 50
M110 SASS
M4 sopmod mod
Sniper cannon
Sniper cannon 2
Sniper cannon 3
Year of the monkey (YOTM)
And the other 30+ mods I use a lot, but can't remember.

Hmm... Ok two things,
@xxxooo
1. To make it multi-player compatable, you'd need to make .kil files, which are kit restrictions.
Now they're a pain to make, but if you really want to use the mod in multi-player...
@Rocky
2.Would it be possible to get Spetsgruppa-Vympel, uploaded to filefront?
I was interested in that mod also, but I'm not going to pay a download site just to play it.
-
Do you mean you want to play more too?
It's a shame you hop off a LAN, or we could play.
Thales gets off at 11:30 ( GMT -5 ) usually. =(
And we don't usually start playing until 8:00.
-
Hmm... Well then I guess that was your problem.
The AI must have just overlooked them since they were hostages.
Of course I could be way off, I've never attempted a hostage rescue, so this is all just speculation.
But glad you got it sorted out anyhow.
-
Just out of curiosity, when the guards were triggered to execute the hostages, did you set the hostages back to normal, or were they still set to hostage?
Not positive this would cause your first method to not work, but it seems like it might.
-
My best kill was on the "road of death", 136.2 meter headshot on a running tango, using the M85A1 from DVS1 weapon mod.
-
@Natsanwa:
Sorry to hear that, but I hope the data recovery can recover a lot more than you expect.
It would be a shame to see great models for ghost recon lost.
Good luck

Hey CC,
If you're looking for a mod to get involved in, check out my thread at ghostaholic.
Thales100 and myself are starting a mod called DEA Operators.
Currently the team consists of:
Myself - Mod lead, mission designer / scripter
Thales100 - Co-lead, modeler, and generally the one that knows what he's doing.
And I'm sure Ayu_Taiyaki will join as a texture artist, mission designer / scripter
We're just getting started, and could use help.
Thanks for your time,
Shadows

After our conversation earlier this evening, I'm sure his missions will have plenty of booby traps...
Oh and not to start a whats the best mod convo, but have you tried Centcom? I'd have to say it's the best, IMO.
-
I guess you're stuck with just me.

Howdy all,
I'm looking for someone who's willing to make this map:
For the large opening I wanted a nice field, with grass, and trees around it.
Maybe 4-6 of the sandbag bunkers at various ranges, and one broken down building around 300-350 meters, across the map. As for visibility, I would like to be able to see 400 meters.
Please PM me with any questions you may have.
Thank you for your time,
Shadows
P.S.
You may be able to contact me faster through ghostaholic, as I frequent their forums.

Hmm... I've never had that happen before. Altho I have forgot to set a friendly platoon to allied, and had them cut me down before...
But I can help with the cheats;
superman
teamsuperman

shadow
teamshadow

run run

To open the console just hit the enter key, that's in the number pad.
Hope this helps.

I was at my brother-in-law's house, surfing download.com looking for a good game, and then I found it,
the one game I had waited years to play, Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon! I had bought the guide years before,
I picked it up wondering what it was, and thought it looked like the coolest game ever, so I bought the guide
for the day I got the game. But so anyways I downloaded it, burnt it, and rushed home to install it.
Finally I got it installed on my mind blowing gaming rig
( cough cough ) and started it up,It was incredible! I did pretty good, lol I had read the guide 400 times so I knew how I needed to play to not
get slaughtered. I was hooked, and so maybe a month later I bought the gold edition, I beat it in about two days,
and played it for a long time before forgetting about it, then I moved out and got the internet, and went in search
of mods, and that is what is my 'IT' mods, so many great mods, if you keep getting shot and are about to insert you
computer into your wall, then you activate a mod or two and you have a new game, which is great again.
One day i'll play online and most likely get even more hooked lol I just never had the desire to play with people
because I have the luck of finding the server with all of the pricks... Oh you suck so bad, NOOB lol when people
realize it's a game, and diffrent people are better at diffrent games ( Like heli sims
) then i'll try it.But my only complaint is ( and Tom should be kicked in the head for this ) you can't see your gun! man I hate that,
you're team has been killed because they are too stupid to see the guy 15 yards away, and now it's just you,
and your trusty M-99, you begin to slowly look for your hide, you lay prone with a smile on your face, and a
.50 supprise for anyone you see, as you lay there admiring the beautiful model, the fine lines, and how the
texture fits the model so perfectly, you realize you're daydreaming and the guys are right in front of you...
BANG... Oh well that's life.
-
Hey m8, the pic's look great. Hmm... Will there be a SVD and an 82A1? Oh and you're sniper kits are good right?
So many times I have found a beautiful gun in a crappy kit... Snipermod alpha for instance has a beautiful SVD but it only has extra ammo... Really 10x10 is 100 / 30-50 dudes = more than enough ammo...
I like when you don't have enough ammo so you have to really use stealth... Don't get me wrong tho, extra ammo is fine, but there needs to be a pistol too. And maybe clamores... I like to blow people up... 
But it looks great. -
Three words, Swiss special forces. The absolute best mod I have ever played. It's got everything great guns, good missions, the wholw works. Oh and also for the big bore dude, Stalker_Zero's Sniper cannon.

Howdy M8's
I'm looking for the mod that has the svd from alpha mod, or was it dtd team mod...?? I'm not shure but it was the last version, I was dissapointed to see it wasen't in the new version... And also I'm looking for a great sniper mod, I know of sniper mod, but I thought it had a good idea but failed to deliver, all of the shots sucked, you had to get in to about 50m to make you're shot, and some of the missions like the first I belive it was is impossible if you try to shoot from where you're supposed to, as you can't even see your target from that position cuse of the building that's right in front of you... So if anyone can help...
Thanks m8's
-
Hmm... Really? I would think you could shoot a 50 crouched... standing, I would only think if it was a very close target that required some reaction shooting and you had to take it... Now a 20mm on the other hand...
I would think you might regret pulling the trigger... Oh and you misunderstood the scope Idea, I ment for
the pistols and assult rifles.
-
Hey thanks m8's, I figured it out a good while back when I started messing with ghost recon, but then I got into battlefield 2 and forgot most of what I knew, I was reading through the forums and someone said about a weapon file, then it hit me as to how I did it, got the ntw 20 set up for a standing of 75 crouching of, uh... 30? I think, and I didn't touch the prone, it was perfect where it was. think the standing should be bigger tho, and I got my farrett 50, m99, and M82A1, accurate while crouching and somewhat while standing... So why were the guns made to only be accurate while prone? was this ment to be an online mod? Becuse I play GR in single player, so that kinda sucked for me... But hey great mods dudes thanks for all of the great guns!
Oh and I had a thought for the scopes, if any of you have played the dvs1 weapons mod and used the L85 then you
know what I mean, but for those who don't I'll explain, with the L85 you have no weapon sight but when you press R ( And yes you have to press R the mouse wheel doesn't work
) you're dude raises the gun and you're scope appears! I like it, now how about using that for the assult rifles? only use a dressed up normal stock GR assult rifle sight then when you zoom in you're looking through the scope!Thanks again for the help!
Sniper tourney mod...wip

Yes, but it had a lot of problems. Unfinished missions, buggy missions, and in the case of mission 4 ( I think it was 4? ), an impossible to complete mission. And you always had to get way too close for the shots.
