Lining up the perfect shot while in the heat of battle can be a challenge in Call of Duty: Warzone. Players have to aim, steady, and hope that they can hit the target before getting counter-sniped. Although sniper rifles are extremely strong in Warzone matches, getting that perfect shot can be a challenge.
Whether it is luck or skill, one fan hit an amazing shot on a moving target that was weaving through beams and terrain. With very little line-up, the player was able to take out the pilot and bring down the helicopter from an insane range. No matter the circumstance, the player makes sniper fans around the Call of Duty community proud to wield their rifles.
The clip starts with the player aiming down the docks below one of the loading platforms. Using a thermal scope, they check possible counter sniping positions and seem to be securing the area before moving forward. That is when a helicopter flys past, smoking, and glowing in the thermal scope. Lining up the shot, it seems that the player was aiming for the helicopter in a general sense when sudden it alerts him of a one-shot one-kill. In the list of accolades for the kill, players can clearly read longshot 261m, making this a truly impressive kill in Warzone.
Sniping has long been a popular playstyle when it comes to the Call of Duty franchise. With the release of the new Rytk AMR Sniper, more and more videos of amazing plays are starting to appear. Although there is some dispute about which sniper is best for Warzone, everyone tends to agree that the range advantage is an absolute must-have for any squad.
The player in the video is clearly using a custom weapon from a loadout drop. Examining it, they seem to be prioritizing range and accuracy. The weapon's thermal scope will detect most players while the bi-pod and custom stock can help steady the weapon's aim and recoil.
Since the debut of the Rytec AMR Sniper, there has been some dispute about whether it is superior to the HDR Sniper in regards to Warzone. The argument mostly breaks down to range, damage, and accuracy of the two weapons. In HDR Sniper breakdowns players have found ways to optimize damage, but the Rytec's optional explosive rounds continue to be a point of discussion among the game's community.
Call of Duty: Warzone is available on PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
