I believe you made a mistake about L115 1 shot kill areas. L115 with no attachment 1 shot kill area is from knee up. I tested the gun for 1 hour, and I was surprised that you made this mistake. Please test it yourself and if you think that I am right, Please give me some credit in your next video. Thank You. (1:07 min in Video)
This gun is pure damage. I love driftor's setup and I actually throw a variable zoom and deadeye in on top of it. Getting hit markers is a thing of the past.
I always thought biolt action snipers both had 0.4seconds ADS and secondly, isnt the L115 sniper supposed to be One shot kill from the knee up (without chrome) according to the in-game description. also, If these stats are true, then really the USR is better in every situation than the L115 because it moves, bolts and ADS's faster
yer cause otherwuise, what is the point of the L115 if the stats are basically the same but slower than the USR lmao. and if this is true, then IW are stupid
ok so ichecked the ads time on symthic in marvels forum post he says 0.48 is standard for all snipers. just the maverick and lynx ads slower at 0.5. so Drift0r might be right here but he definetly messed up the multipliers because the l115 is definetly a 1 shot from the knee up
Yer i just did my own testing and gave drift0r the results. apparently he was also wrong about the suppressed L115, and the suppressed USR and a minor error when he said about the Lynx and L115 running at different speeds, but showing 85% at both times
The acog on the l115 is fun to use, I used it on strikezone in close combat. My enemies thought I was no scoping them all the time. I think the acog is usefull because you dont get distracted by the zoomin animation.
Hey Driftor just wanted to mention that the 115 and usr both have the recoil compensator that decreases the idle sway with each consecutive kill up to 4
Was my first sniper, and pre-patch it was beast with acog(if you have good eyes, sorry brad!) because it was almost 100% 1HKO and if you knew where they were coming from they had no way around the death laser. On the castle map, on the smaller-castle side, if you stood on the first big rock from the burning house you could see the entire map while easily cockblocking anyone trying to get to you from up the hill. Easy map-control weapon if used wisely.
I can quickscope and play aggressively with this gun just fine. The only reason I don't use it as much is because it shoots so slow, but I can speed that up somewhat with reload cancelling (despite the nerf)... Sure, the USR is a bit better for quickscoping, but I do like a challenge, hence why I use snipers at all. No doubt this gun is good for quickscoping though.
Gooby Pls Gay because you're not skilled enough to do it? Makes sense. Stick to holding down the trigger and spraying in circles with your full-auto ARs, nooblet.
Gooby Pls Firstly, I'm not a kid, you prepubescent child. Secondly, quickscoping actually does take skill. Try it, go put on a USR or L115 and do nothing but quickscope and play aggressively all game in a public match. You will suck at it. Anyone who has tried it knows how much easier it is to just use a regular gun.
PuLSe EmergE yes it is easier, but quickscoping is complete bullshit, it's a glitch in the auto aim, and people frown on you for sniping how it was designed.
Cameron Ogilvie Not really... Maybe it was in MW2, but since BO2 they've removed the hipfire aim assist from snipers, so you actually have to be scoped in for aim assist to take effect. So in BO2 and Ghosts, true quickscoping is pure aim.
I've used this once on overlord. I picked it up (on one of my friends accounts), it was bog standard, no attachments. In that one life, I somehow managed to get the perfectionist operation, with the first clip. Made me think I was using the wrong sniper for the chrome barrel operation
I am a old man sniper. I hate quickscoping and quickscopers in general but for some reason, while the L115 was built for "Old man sniping", I perform much better with USR. It feels a lot lighter and easier to control. And also it looks sexy when you bolt it. Has any other fellow hardscoper had the same expierience?
I use both the L115 and the USR to quickscope. The best quickscoping class is either the L115 or USR with AP rounds and chrome lined, Quickdraw, steady aim, focus, ready up, on the go, and sleight of hand. no secondary, lethal, or tactical. I recommend a support package. Try it and reply your results!
I know you have a lot on your plate right now driftor, but could you also go through the killstreaks as well for the in depth series? Like I have no idea what the MAAWS does, and if it's helpful or not. I know you did the best killstreaks setup already, but if you could go through at least most of the others, that would be really cool! Loving the vids so far!
I kinda agree, but this is my go-to quickscoping weapon. With chrome lined armor piercing ready up slight of hand ability extreme conditioning QuickDraw and resilience, this gun is the best quickscoping weapon for 1v1 engagements.
Does anybody like the ACOG? Never seen Drift0r use it in a class setup. I have never liked them in any FPS game, always seems to bounce around too much for my liking
I find them much better than any other optical attachment. They have a tad bit of sway but I find the increased magnification negates any accuracy lost at most ranges.
The L115 Is ok. It doesn't feel worth it though due to the sights time which when faster is useful for dealing with the crazy effectiveness of AR's at range and sniping people before they reach cover, so I generally fare much better with the USR.
Disagree with what you said about quick scoping. I quick scope with this weapon more over the USR. Got this weapon gold as with the USR. very comfortable with it.
I 100% agree with you...I always have used this to quickscope with..I have no problems with Mag size...reload time isn't a problem if you have slight of hand perk...Really not keen on the USR sniper due to the fact it seems that it is a weak sniper...But overall I think L115 is a really good sniper to quickscope...
Bob was a triplet all along? Who would've thought! Wait how can we distinguish them? Wich was the Bob that was in previous episodes? Why do you do this drift0r?
Can someone please explain why the charging handle on the bolt is on the right but the breach is on the left? When the shell comes out it will hit you in the face since all the characters are right handed. But yeah just had to point that out kinda big design flaw... maybe thats why its shooting so slow because you have hot brass flying into you face everytime you open up your chamber to rack another round?
So that would explain my bad luck when it came to quick scoping, lol. When I was working on Chrome barrel master and variable zoom master, I used this and it didn't matter what level it was, I would always take it, even in strikezone. (kind of a derpy move)
I used to love this sniper, but then started using the USR more often n then fell in love with that sniper. Personally I feel it has a cooler aesthetic look to it, n also is easier and quicker to use
Great video as usual Drift! However I noticed a few small errors.The L115 is a one shot kill from the knees up and not just the lower torso. That is the one shot kill area of the USR, VKS and the Maverick A2 (which is lower torso up). Secondly, I'm not a hundred percent sure but I believe that the ADS time of the rifle is 0.37 seconds. Lastly, the 85 percent mobility is the average for the sniper rifles. The USR moves at 90 percent while the Lynx moves at 80 percent. Other than that, great tips for using this weapon! :)
I like this sniper the best because I feel its the most consistent between the other ones. I feel that USR gets more hitmarkers with or without chrome line.
The USR is for quickscopers and newvpeople. L115 is for perfectionists who dont miss shots. I use the USR more for quickscopes but this for big maps or stealth sniping
This is my aggressive sniper actually i usually drop 25-30 kills in a tdm game with this while running around. Also if you know what your doing quick scoping is a breeze with this gun. Chrome barrel+AP no secondary
Good to see a sniper rifle that you actually have to "snipe" with and not qs. Although it is stupid to hear pissed off 10 years calling you a fing hard scoper, I wanna say no he sniped you qsing is NOT sniping. Imo it's stupid that qsing still exists especially with marksman rifles being brought in.
That is part of the reason that in all honesty they need to remove snipers from cod altogether you have to try and design parts of maps for snipers to play properly, the problem with that however is 98% of the time theres a camper sitting in those spots ads. Cod is and was always intended to be a fast paced run n gun game and snipers simply arent made for that kind of gameplay.
can u go over the advantages or is there no advantage of caring a sniper rifle and a smg or a rifle together. Is there a advantage doing this? or is it best to run just one of those weapons? psl driftor
The stats do say that the USR is better for quickscoping. But for the hands-on feel for it, I would say the L115 is way better for quick scoping and for the overall best sniper rifle.
I prefer the L115 purely for aesthetic reasons. I prefer the more traditional approach to sniping; what Drift0r calls 'old man' sniping, but that's just me. I have switched to the Maverick A2 but the L115 is what I'll fall back on if I ever get bored of the Maverick's beautifully clear sights and seemingly stellar accuracy.
Anything involving over seeing vantage points, or guarding objectives with a sniper is considered camping. If you snipe for real, you are hard scoping. Frickin' kids.
personally, I love acog on my L115, putting a blue dot on it is great for me, It feels like it has a better ADS by far when using it, and if you have a good shot with an AR or a SMG, You can hit the acog shots from shot to medium length fairly well, Only downside is long range, its horrible
somehow I mostly get an accidental quickscope every match. It's weird but awesome. And for people who don't know, the L in the L115 is the first letter for LAPUA, witch is the L115's actual name the Lapua 115
No, the 'L' is simply the British army designation for that family of weapons. The use of Lapua ammunition is coincidental. The L96 shares the same designation despite the fact that it is perfectly capable of using Winchester ammunition.
My 360 can no longer download updates so I can't play Black Ops 2 and I actually miss it which makes me sad cos I miss the Ballista, DSR and other guns like the AN-94 as well as the game itself :'(
L115 is my fav sniper. IDK why, just feels the best to me.
Has good one hit kill areas and good mobility
When snipers quickscope people get mad, when we regular snipe ( hard scope) you get furious! PICK ONE !!
Pasta Rocket Gaming hard scoping is when you aggressively snipe but always have your scopes up
4:12 I'd be SO pissed if I were that guy...
How the hell did driftor hit that?
Probably the most helpful UA-camr ever
USR > L115. There really is no reason to not use the USR over the 115. It shoots faster, you run faster
SpectreTheHorseman but if I use the l115 at least I ain’t seen a 12 year old that’s trying to quick scope
Incorrect
It depends on what you want to play like you get better one hit kill areas but move slower
I believe you made a mistake about L115 1 shot kill areas. L115 with no attachment 1 shot kill area is from knee up. I tested the gun for 1 hour, and I was surprised that you made this mistake. Please test it yourself and if you think that I am right, Please give me some credit in your next video. Thank You. (1:07 min in Video)

i was thinking the exact same thing. i hope drift0r sees this and checks if he maybe goofed up
yer cause otherwuise, what is the point of the L115 if the stats are basically the same but slower than the USR lmao. and if this is true, then IW are stupid
ok so ichecked the ads time on symthic in marvels forum post he says 0.48 is standard for all snipers. just the maverick and lynx ads slower at 0.5. so Drift0r might be right here but he definetly messed up the multipliers because the l115 is definetly a 1 shot from the knee up

fantastic job with the display of the 1 shot kills for this sniper
on this video driftor
Will Ghost Stories return?
The acog on the l115 is fun to use, I used it on strikezone in close combat. My enemies thought I was no scoping them all the time. I think the acog is usefull because you dont get distracted by the zoomin animation.
I've been waiting for this review for a long time Dtift0r, thank you!
Hey Driftor just wanted to mention that the 115 and usr both have the recoil compensator that decreases the idle sway with each consecutive kill up to 4
Was my first sniper, and pre-patch it was beast with acog(if you have good eyes, sorry brad!) because it was almost 100% 1HKO and if you knew where they were coming from they had no way around the death laser.

Nice touch introducing the "triple-Bob" graphic! :)
Did you forget about LMGs and Shotguns?
I can quickscope and play aggressively with this gun just fine. The only reason I don't use it as much is because it shoots so slow, but I can speed that up somewhat with reload cancelling (despite the nerf)... Sure, the USR is a bit better for quickscoping, but I do like a challenge, hence why I use snipers at all. No doubt this gun is good for quickscoping though.

Why would you use the L115 when the USR gets the same multipliers does the same damage ads faster and moves faster.
I think this gun is great for quickscoping when using the right perks. Perks like quickdraw, steady aim, etc
I use both the L115 and the USR to quickscope. The best quickscoping class is either the L115 or USR with AP rounds and chrome lined, Quickdraw, steady aim, focus, ready up, on the go, and sleight of hand. no secondary, lethal, or tactical.

drift0r , you are simply the best!

I know you did the best killstreaks setup already, but if you could go through at least most of the others, that would be really cool! Loving the vids so far!
L115 vs the USR the L115 barely gets any hitmarkers. My opinion it is pretty good for quickscoping, hasnt failed me yet.
Did the l115 get patched because i thought it was one shot knees up with no barrel attach
First time I've ever caught one of your videos within the first two minutes
Drift0r, you forgot the lower leg portions for the one hit kill.
Put ready up and QuickDraw you can quickquick with it
Lovin the content driftor and nice twitter, just started following you yesterday
I kinda agree, but this is my go-to quickscoping weapon. With chrome lined armor piercing ready up slight of hand ability extreme conditioning QuickDraw and resilience, this gun is the best quickscoping weapon for 1v1 engagements.
Does anybody like the ACOG? Never seen Drift0r use it in a class setup. I have never liked them in any FPS game, always seems to bounce around too much for my liking
There is far too much sway to even use them for what they are made for.
I like using ACOG for taking consistent midrange shots. Makes it easier for taking head shots for me.
I use it with the USR for close to mid-range fights when I want to feel like im in WWII.
I find them much better than any other optical attachment. They have a tad bit of sway but I find the increased magnification negates any accuracy lost at most ranges.
I like the l115 with acog and silencer
The L115 Is ok. It doesn't feel worth it though due to the sights time which when faster is useful for dealing with the crazy effectiveness of AR's at range and sniping people before they reach cover, so I generally fare much better with the USR.

The Spectrum camo looks better on the L115 than any other gun, so good

4:15, insta rage quit for that guy... -____-
how fitting the sniper in depth gets a tempex add
I always run it with AP and variable zoom plus a grach
I like this sniper the best because I feel its the most consistent between the other ones. I feel that USR gets more hitmarkers with or without chrome line.
I have the usr gold but have barely touched the l11 since the patched reload canceling.
The USR is for quickscopers and newvpeople. L115 is for perfectionists who dont miss shots. I use the USR more for quickscopes but this for big maps or stealth sniping
Drift0r The Usr and L115 have the same ads. .40 seconds. And the L115 I am pretty sure has 4 bullets in the default mag
Still quick scoping with the L115 in ghosts in 2018. Works just fine for me
I love using the L115. It's a challenge to use an I love using it in snd. I can quick scope with it just fine all about reaction time.
funny how when he says dont use for quickscoping but, I done that with it plenty of times already
I've always quick scoped with the L115, I don't know why but quick scoping with the USR feels a bit difficult.
Headshot feed starting at 4:44
i like to use deadeye + chrome lined for L115. REALLY hard to get hitmarkers with that set up :)
But would it make more sense to use off the grid and takedown thanQuickDraw and ready up if this is for just sitting there waiting
Got my first KEM with the L115
Can you cover reload cancelling with snipers in an in depth?
this is my favorite quickscoping gun. i hate using the usr i just don't like how fast the movement speed is
Don't know if you knew this dripper, but this rifle is the rifle that holds the record for longest confirmed kill. Neat eh?
4:12 nice shot driftor
4:13 Holy shit FaZe Drift0r
Is the l115 a better version of the l96al from bo 1 because they look the same
This is my aggressive sniper actually i usually drop 25-30 kills in a tdm game with this while running around. Also if you know what your doing quick scoping is a breeze with this gun. Chrome barrel+AP no secondary
Reload cancel makes this gun so OP and plus sleight of hand not anymore lol
Doesn't the L115 normally kill from the upper legs up?
I love this weapon. On maps like Stonehaven you can just shoot across the map and make some real sniping.
L115, my favorite in every COD it's been featured in. I guess I'm an old man sniper...
Good to see a sniper rifle that you actually have to "snipe" with and not qs. Although it is stupid to hear pissed off 10 years calling you a fing hard scoper, I wanna say no he sniped you qsing is NOT sniping. Imo it's stupid that qsing still exists especially with marksman rifles being brought in.
Admittedly, most of the maps in ghost have pretty shitty sight lines for proper sniping.
That is part of the reason that in all honesty they need to remove snipers from cod altogether you have to try and design parts of maps for snipers to play properly, the problem with that however is 98% of the time theres a camper sitting in those spots ads. Cod is and was always intended to be a fast paced run n gun game and snipers simply arent made for that kind of gameplay.
Hey Drift you should do a K.E.M Strike in depth . Idk why it sounds cool ,and nice gameplay
CL/AP + Extended mags = OP
var.scope is the best attatchment for the 115
For some reason I get more hit markers with this than with the USR. And no I don't use Chrome-Lined for either of them.
If I could quick scope with the DSR 50 do u think I could quick scope with this?
I LIKE THE SETUP FOR BOB ON THIS VID,...
Why make it so slow on everything? It needs faster reload speed or movement speed at least to remain competitive.
The l115 is my favorite sniper rifle in ghosts it reminds me of the L118A in MW3.
can u go over the advantages or is there no advantage of caring a sniper rifle and a smg or a rifle together. Is there a advantage doing this? or is it best to run just one of those weapons? psl driftor
I know that I'm probably not going to use the L115... I just watch because I love the series
Drift or can you please compare the l115 and the usr please
I was wondering. Are you going to do an In Depth on the MAAWS?
If it has the same kill areas as the usr why not just use the usr and get better rate of fire and movement speed as well as reload speed and clip size
Its the L118A vs MSR from MW3 all over again.
The L115 has less idle sway and he said that it has higher damage than the usr
+Randy Tryston Jaramilla l115 has more idle sway
lower reload threshold less downward kick faster reload
The stats do say that the USR is better for quickscoping. But for the hands-on feel for it, I would say the L115 is way better for quick scoping and for the overall best sniper rifle.
Drift0r out !
so wait, it doesn't get a one shot kill from the knee up as a default?
I miss the old dsr, that thing ripped.
I hope Drift0r does Titanfall in depth when it releases.
Please finish the LMGs.
Are u going to review titan fall weapons when the game comes out?
Has the USR been nerfed since this was posted?
I prefer the L115 purely for aesthetic reasons. I prefer the more traditional approach to sniping; what Drift0r calls 'old man' sniping, but that's just me. I have switched to the Maverick A2 but the L115 is what I'll fall back on if I ever get bored of the Maverick's beautifully clear sights and seemingly stellar accuracy.
For some reason when I use this gun on overlord I suck but when I use it on sovereign I dominate with quick scopes!
Anybody else see all those headshots at 4:41?
This gun is like my bread and butter or in his case "PB and J" I love to snipe with this gun it is a beast
when the full game is released, can you please do the titanfall in-depth
Anything involving over seeing vantage points, or guarding objectives with a sniper is considered camping. If you snipe for real, you are hard scoping. Frickin' kids.
Silence, yew basterd...
who cares if its considered camping?
Kareb Rocks Your father smells of elderberries.
Kareb Rocks with a side order of wenches :p
personally, I love acog on my L115, putting a blue dot on it is great for me, It feels like it has a better ADS by far when using it, and if you have a good shot with an AR or a SMG, You can hit the acog shots from shot to medium length fairly well, Only downside is long range, its horrible
So what's better, this or the VKS ?
Umm Driftor, the L115 aims down sights at the same amount of time as the USR so it can be used for quickscoping :)
somehow I mostly get an accidental quickscope every match. It's weird but awesome. And for people who don't know, the L in the L115 is the first letter for LAPUA, witch is the L115's actual name the Lapua 115
No, the 'L' is simply the British army designation for that family of weapons. The use of Lapua ammunition is coincidental. The L96 shares the same designation despite the fact that it is perfectly capable of using Winchester ammunition.
Ooh, we don't like being disagreed with, do we? That response wasn't really necessary when you think about it, was it eh? Never mind though.
yes, it was necessary, British. now go choke on some tea like you normally do
well I guess I had a sub-conscious thing when I used it back when the game first came out since I old man snipe when I snipe :D
My 360 can no longer download updates so I can't play Black Ops 2 and I actually miss it which makes me sad cos I miss the Ballista, DSR and other guns like the AN-94 as well as the game itself :'(
