Summary Of The Best And Worst Of Maps For Sniping - Guide for Call of Duty: Black Ops

If you are going to hard scope (Actually zoom in with your sniper with regular scope 
or variable scope) this is a guide for the best and worst maps to do it on. 
First off the perks I would use: Blue Perk- Scavenger or Ghost, Red Perk- Any of 
them, and 
Green Perk- Ninja or Hacker
I recommend using the L96A1 Variable scope, and I will list good perks on given 
maps. 

1. Great Maps for sniping
Array- Pretty obvious, great for being in the tower or sniping the other snipers in the 
tower
Firing Range- Really good if your team is in control of the game and you can camp in 
the tower, I would recommend you get Flak Jacket Pro and maybe even Gas Mask 
Pro along with it
Grid- This is good if you are playing a good tactical game mode and you can camp on 
either side of the map or if you can move around in either building complex
Jungle- In contest of being one of the best sniping maps, several epic spots and 
great counter-sniping
Villa- This is only a great map if you have the proper team members and standpoint 
on map, recommend claymores or camera spikes on this one
WMD- Several great spots and nice spacious games for a great outlook of the enemy 
teams
Berlin Wall- If you hide in one of the buildings with the overview of the middle of the 
two walls then you are set especially for any tactical game mode
Kowloon- One of the best sniping maps obviously for the low visibility too, a motion 
sensor or tactical insertion wouldn't hurt especially if you're on the skyscraper or a 
little niche somewhere
Stadium- Excellent if on either of the two balconies, wooden thing in front of the 
stadium or upstairs in the stadium

2. Average Maps for Sniping
Cracked- Good for tactical game modes or any game mode if in the correct spots
Crisis- Really good if on mountain, water tower, ocean side, or building roofs
Havana- Could of been a great map for sniping but I never have any luck with it, I 
would recommend staying in the building on either far side of the map or one of the 
side buildings
Launch- Good map for tactical games, good spots are the small buildings on the 
opposite side of the rocket and the rooms and metal beams next to the rocket
Nuke Town- Obviously stay in the buildings, claymores, camera spikes, and motion 
sensors are good, again I would use Flak Jacket Pro and Tactical Mask Pro
Radiation- If you get a good look on the middle of the map you can excel but other 
than that I think there is too much battling inside buildings and underground
Summit- Good only for tactical game modes and if the battle is outside, get in the 
tower or pedway
Discovery- Good if you can get a good spot in one of the buildings or on the building 
on the far side

3. Bad Map for Sniping
Hanoi- Despite being at night, it is a bad map for sniping unless you can hold one of 
the buildings or get a good spot in a tactical game mode, too close range.
