Finishing table: When the game ends, or a few runners manage to escape, the sniper's name, their bullets fired, the caliber type, and the percentage that hit will be displayed, defining their aim. Example: The sniper, Justin, fired (87) (12.7 ×108) bullets, hitting (37%) of his shots. And then, to remember the runners and their current condition. Example: In memory of: Carlos (Shot in the head) Christian (Shot) Luis (Lost consciousness) Martin (Death by landmine)

Cover and obstacles: Throughout each map, there will be obstacles that make it difficult to reach the exit, posing a challenge for the Runners, but there will be cover such as metal walls that rise from the ground when a button on the ground near it is pressed.

Cards to improve and benefit: Cards are your best ally as a runner or sniper, benefiting skills and making your game easier.

The Hills of Nowhere The Nowhere Hills is a straight, uphill path through what appears to be houses with overturned furniture. The map has dead ends, making it stressful to get lost again, and there are also many tripwires—watch out if you step on one! Hotel Skyline Skyline Hotel is a horizontal race through a hotel building. The map consists of several elevators, each leading to a different floor of the hotel. There is also an area connected by stairs (just past the second elevator) where many keys are located.

The outskirts The Outskirts is a straight race through an arid desert, littered with shipping containers, landmines, and other debris. This map gets progressively harder as you advance, with the finish line right below the sniper tower.

The battlefield The Battlefield is a straight, initially horizontal, race through a representation of what appears to be the Normandy Assault (D-Day). On this map, runners must dodge numerous anti-personnel mines to reach the elevators, which will take them to an underground area of ​​the map that connects to the exit. The sniper also has a view of this underground area.

The border The border is a straight and curved path leading to the end of the map. Players in hiding will take a path to the left (long path) or to the right (short path) to the map's exit, which is a hole in the border, while dodging numerous antipersonnel mines. This map is extremely open, with some sections offering little cover.

The front The Front is a straight run with numerous high walls equipped with buttons to protect you from the sniper while you dodge numerous anti-personnel mines. This map becomes increasingly difficult as you progress, since the finish line is below the sniper's tower, which, if you advance further, will be out of reach.

The airport The Airport is a horizontal race that takes you through an airport and, eventually, onto its runway. This map becomes increasingly difficult as racers progress due to the lack of cover on the runway.

Air bridge Skybridge is a straight run, then a horizontal run through a street with bushes and high walls that can be used for cover and parking, and which eventually leads to the elevators that will take you to the overpass where the exit is.

The side The Side is a horizontal layout on the side of a cliff, covered by high walls with buttons.

The Exit: The exit is at the end of the map; it's a green flare that glows when you're near its range. In 5 seconds, you'll have escaped and teleported to a safe zone away from the sniper.

Air crates: At the start of a game, a crate will fall from the sky from a plane flying overhead until it continues on its way. There are 2 types of air crates: Airdrop box: Requires a launch key to open, may contain: Titanium box, wooden box, iron box and a suitcase. Reinforced case: Requires an advanced key, may contain: Titanium case, diamond case, suitcases and gold Experience plates.

Night Mode: Night mode is the same map but with alternate weather. The following maps with night mode are: The side, The front, The border, The battlefield and The outskirts.

The tower: The tower is the place where the sniper or {{user}} will shoot, even if they lower the rifle further, there is a limit that does not allow it, as in The Outskirts and The Front.

Smoke grenade: While useful at close range for the sniper, it can be useless at long range, as the smoke can be easily seen through it from afar, even with thermal vision. Flare grenade: This grenade blinds the sniper while it flashes, and only blinds them if they look directly at it. Its effects are reduced the further away the scope is. It does not affect runners. Flashbang grenade: This grenade releases a blinding flash of light that temporarily blinds the sniper. The sniper can easily avoid it simply by looking away when the grenade is thrown. Healing Mist Grenade: This grenade releases a healing mist after a short time. The healing mist grenade can heal anyone within the mist. Super Spark Grenade: This grenade works similarly to the stun grenade and the spark grenade: it releases a flash of bright light and three sparks when it explodes. Flint gun utility: This gun fires a flare grenade, which floats and falls slowly to the ground before extinguishing. It functions the same as a flintlock grenade. Flashgun utility: The gun fires a stun grenade, which explodes in the air or immediately upon hitting the ground. It functions the same as a stun grenade. Fragmentation grenade: This grenade is a design of the MK 1 grenade, it works similarly to a normal grenade, if someone is close to or less than its range, it will explode or injure them. Impact Gun: The impact gun is a weapon that can be used against your teammates, which uses the flare gun to appear innocent, and also uses a shotgun shell as a bullet.

-You can only carry 1 item in 3 inventory slots, except for the health grenade, which gives you 2. -The use of flintlock and flash guns can end someone's life or injure them if not used correctly.

AT-50 .50 | Hull shots: 3 Statistics: •Damage: 92 •Speed: 1950 SPS •Rate of fire: 195 RPM, semi-automatic •Charger: 5 Miscellaneous: •Caliber: 12.7 x 99 mm (0.50 BMG) It deals good damage and has a generous rate of fire if accuracy isn't optimal. Its speed is acceptable, but it can be unforgiving on long maps.

KAS-76 8mm | Shots to helmet: 2 Statistics: •Damage: 170 •Speed: 2700 SPS •Rate of fire: 65 RPM, bolt action •Charger: 4 Miscellaneous: •Caliber: 8x57 mm (7.92x57 mm Mauser) Overall, it's an excellent weapon for snipers of any skill level, and can usually kill a player with a single shot to the torso or arms. Its high velocity also makes it much easier to use, although this is partially offset by its low rate of fire.

PVR .308 | Helmet shots: 2 Statistics: •Damage: 142 •Speed: 2650 SPS •Rate of fire: 95 RPM, bolt action •Charger: 4 Miscellaneous: •Caliber: 7.62 x 51 mm Functionally, it's very similar to the KAS, with the increased rate of fire being the most noticeable difference and slightly more forgiving for those with a more sensitive shooting touch. Whether to use the PVR or the KAS largely depends on personal preference, given their similarities in speed and damage.

PVR .22 | Helmet shots: 5 Statistics: •Damage: 54 •Speed: 1550 SPS •Rate of fire: 550 RPM, semi-automatic •Charger: 10 Miscellaneous: •Caliber: HP 5.7 x 15 mm (0.22 LR) While the speed is low, the high rate of fire and magazine size make it suitable for simply bombarding Runners with a storm of lead, although the meager damage can be detrimental, especially against Runners using armor plate cards.

LR .220 | Shots to the helmet: 6 Statistics: •Damage: 45 •Speed: 3100 SPS •Rate of fire: 340 RPM, semi-automatic •Charger: 7 Miscellaneous: •Caliber: 5.56 x 56 mm (.220 Swift) Although the damage is minimal, its high velocity, good rate of fire, and generous magazine allow a sniper to easily take down Runners. It is recommended to aim for a Runner's limbs, rather than the body or head, when using this weapon.

AP-MT .50 | Helmet Shot: 3 Statistics: •Damage: 280 •Speed: 1750 SPS •Rate of fire: 45 RPM, bolt action •Charger: 3 Miscellaneous: •Caliber: 12.7 x 108 mm However, the AP-MT is generally considered one of the worst sniper rifles. While it boasts high damage—the second highest of all weapons in the game—its slow rate of fire and low bullet velocity negate this advantage, demanding exceptional accuracy from the sniper.

Auto-MT .50 | Helmet shots: 2 Statistics: •Damage: 205 •Speed: 1650 SPS •Rate of fire: 170 RPM, bolt action •Charger: 5 Miscellaneous: •Caliber: 12.7 x 108 mm Although similar to the AP-MT .50, it has a much higher rate of fire without sacrificing high damage. While the velocity isn't improved and can be detrimental, along with the heavy recoil, the higher rate of fire can compensate for this.

BRE 20mm | Shots to the helmet: 1 Statistics: •Damage: 290 •Speed: 2900 SPS •Rate of fire: 24 RPM, bolt action •Charger: 3 Miscellaneous: •Caliber: 20x102 mm This is the most powerful weapon in the game, dealing the most damage and capable of easily killing with a single hit to any part of the body. While it has the slowest rate of fire, the high bullet velocity makes it easier to shoot, though it will still be punishing for those with poor aim.

BN 12×70 | Shots to the helmet: 2 Statistics: •Damage: 210 •Speed: 1570 SPS •Rate of fire: 105, bolt action •Charger: 5 Miscellaneous: •Caliber: 12 x 70 mm (12 gauge) •Obtain: "You are not the bad" Badge, in the 2025 Halloween event. Although statistically similar to the AP-MT .50, the BN 12x70 has a much higher rate of fire, making it far more forgiving. Unusually, the BN 12x70 is not a rifle, but a 12-gauge pump-action shotgun that fires slugs. The sound of the weapon cycling is distinctly that of a shotgun pumping, rather than a bolt.

Agent-220 | Shots to helmet: 4 Statistics: •Damage: 62 •Speed: 4000 SPS •Rate of fire: 135 RPM, bolt action •Charger: 4 Miscellaneous: •Caliber: OP 5.56x56 mm (.220 Swift) Although its damage is moderate, the Agent has the highest bullet velocity of all the weapons, making it one of the easiest to use. Furthermore, it doesn't produce tracers on night maps, making it one of the best choices for those maps. The "OP" in its caliber seems to stand for "Overpressure", which would probably explain the higher velocity compared to LR .220 rounds despite being the same type of cartridge.

Auto-CI 9mm | Hull shots: 6 Statistics: •Damage: 43 •Speed: 1750 SPS •Rate of fire: 450 RPM, fully automatic •Charger: 22 Miscellaneous: •Caliber: 9×19 mm Although its damage and rate of fire are low, the Auto-CI's fully automatic nature and generous magazine make it a terrifying weapon, especially on close-range maps like Skyline Hotel. It's the fastest-firing weapon a sniper can use, aside from using a fully automatic trigger with some of the fastest-firing semi-automatic options.

XSS 9×39 mm | Shots to helmet: 3 Statistics: •Damage: 110 •Speed: 1200 SPS •Rate of fire: 800 RPM, semi-automatic •Charger: 10 Miscellaneous: •Caliber: 9x39 mm This is essentially an improved version of the PVR .22. While the velocity is the worst of all the weapons, the extremely generous rate of fire and high damage make it extremely lethal.

Trivia: -The magazine in each bullet refers to jamming or overheating after repeated firing. -They have bullet drop, so you need to know how to use each bullet accurately. -Using cards for the sniper can benefit you in every game. -The helmet can be destroyed by the bullet, but it may cause the player to bleed out without giving them time to heal. -Once a bullet hits a Runner's helmet, the Runner will experience dizziness or panic due to the force of the bullet; it's a rather stressful mechanic. -The rifle used by a sniper is unknown, but it is known that you have infinite ammunition, presumably when it jams or overheats. -During the night, the bullets will be visible, as they will be tracers, colored light blue, red, yellow or green. RPM = Rounds Per Minute SPS = Studs Per Second

Check out @Resciphron's YouTube channel, they'll explain the different types of bullets and sniper gameplay, but it will be in English (whether you understand it or not).

There are sights with standards and advantages, plus some advantage or night vision mode during night modes.

Standard sight: The standard sight includes a sniper sight with a simple black reticle. It offers no additional benefits.

Red-Dot Sight: This is an alternative sniper sight. It features a simple line and dot sight and offers the advantage of being illuminated in red.

PSO-Lit Sight: This is an alternative sniper scope. This scope features the same complex sighting mechanism as the PSO, but offers the advantage of being illuminated in red.

PU Sight: This is an alternative sniper scope. This scope features a simple sight inspired by the Kar-98. It offers no additional benefits.

ATOG Sight: This sight features a simple plus sign pattern, with the area where the lines intersect illuminated in red. It offers no additional benefits. ATOG Sight (Variant): This sight features a simple plus sign pattern, similar to the other ATOG sight. The only difference is that the area where the lines intersect is illuminated in green, instead of red.

PNO Sight: This is an alternative sniper scope. It offers the same complex view as the PSO. In addition, it offers the advantage of being a night vision scope.

EO-AN Thermal Sight: This is an alternative sniper sight. The lens is rectangular, with a vertical and horizontal reticle in the center. It offers the advantage of a black and white thermal lens. EO-B6 Sight with Thermal Lens: This is an alternative sniper scope. It has the same field of view as the EO-AN. It offers the advantage of a standard thermal lens.

VU Sight: This is an alternative sniper scope. It features a black reticle, a red circular sight and dot, and includes a rangefinder in the upper left corner.

-The telescopes will shine brightly during the day if the sniper is aiming at you, and if it is less bright, he will be aiming at someone else.

In this game, one player is chosen as the sniper (each player has a percentage chance of being the sniper unless this option is disabled). The others are survivors, and their main objective is to reach the green flare at the end of the map. As a survivor you can: •Main objective: Survive the sniper and reach the green flare at the end of the map to escape. •Movement: Players can run, jump, and lie down. Running, jumping, and lying down in the air triggers a dive. •Looting: You can take keys and XP boosters. Collected keys are used to unlock crates in the Armory. •Combat and utility: Survivors can equip and throw various types of grenades (e.g., smoke, flashbang, healing mist) to support the team or hinder the sniper. •Friendly fire: Normally, survivors cannot kill each other. However, throwing high-level explosives (such as standard grenades, flare guns, or stun grenades) near teammates will damage them.

•Master the dive: The sniper relies on predictable movements to land their shots. Practice the dive (running, jumping, and then landing in mid-air) to throw off their aim. Combine this with the Speed ​​and Parkour cards to become a much harder target to track. •Know your armor's limits: Equipping yourself with a helmet and body armor will save your life against most weapons, but don't get too confident. If you hear the slow, powerful fire of a 20mm BRE or an AP-MT .50, your armor won't protect you. Those weapons will penetrate it in a single shot. •Beware of nighttime and close quarters: pay attention to the map type and the sniper's weapon. On nighttime maps, a savvy sniper will use the Agent-220 because its high-velocity bullets leave no visible trace in the dark. On close-range maps like Skyline Hotel, be prepared to dodge a hail of bullets from the fully automatic Auto-CI 9mm. • Timing your grenades is crucial: Throwing a stun or spark grenade sounds good in theory, but experienced snipers can simply look away to avoid the blinding effect. Try throwing your vision-reducing grenades when the sniper is distracted or just as you're crossing a dangerous gap. •Play as a Medic: Healing not only benefits the team, but also improves your level progression. Using the Medic card or throwing a Healing Fog Grenade on injured teammates grants you bonus experience. •Be careful with your explosives: Remember that high-level grenades can harm your teammates, so be very careful where you throw your offensive explosives.

The cards serve to enhance and improve both the survivors and the sniper. Each card can be upgraded to a maximum of Level II, Level III, or, more commonly, Level V, increasing its effects with each level. Any higher-level card you collect will replace the previous lower-level card. Cards can be collected by opening boxes and drawers in the Armory, or by increasing your player level. Letters from survivors:

Resistance card (I > III) +Leg health +Arm health The Stamina card increases the player's leg and arm health. (I -> 1.33x, II -> 1.66x, III -> 2x) This card can be upgraded to level III.

Hull chart (I > II) +Helmet +Armor protection The helmet card adds a visible helmet to the player, providing head protection. Exceptions are the 20mm BRE and the AP-MT .50, which penetrate the bullet in a single shot.

Armor plate chart (I > V) +Front plate +Armor protection The armor card provides the player with protection for the front of the torso and limbs (excluding legs), with the exception of the 20mm BRE and the .50 caliber AP-MT, which penetrate armor in a single shot. The armor is not visible to the players.

Medical letter (I > III) +Player Healing +Healing speed The Medic card gives the player the ability to heal others directly without the need for a Health Grenade. (Each level allows a player to heal people faster, with (I -> 1.5 seconds, II -> 1 second, III -> 0.5 seconds)).

Speed ​​chart (I > V) +Speed ​​movement +Inertial motion The speed card provides players with an additional boost to their speed along with a boost to their acceleration.

Parkour Letter (I > V) +Upside-down deployment +Diving speed +Speed ​​in face down position The Parkour card grants players a bonus to diving, crawling speed, and the speed at which they go upside down.

Vitality Letter (I > III) +Shortens bleeding +Torso Health The Vitality Card provides a bonus to a player's torso HP (I -> 1.17x, II -> 1.32x, III -> 1.5x), and also reduces bleeding.

XP Card (I > V) +Survivor XP +Sniper XP The XP card grants players a bonus to XP earned for any action, except opening crates. (This also includes bonus XP for snipers.)

Scavenger's Letter (I > V) +Key detection range +Collection speed +Escape velocity The Collector card allows players to detect keys from a greater distance, as well as collect crates and escape faster than normal near the exit.

Sniper cards:

Stability chart (I > III) +Backup control -Rolling speed The stability card provides a bonus for recoil control and reduces sniper sway.

Focus chart (I > III) +Fear reduction Reduces eye movement when you receive a flash and are affected by a flash when playing as a sniper.

Speed ​​chart (I > V) +Bullet speed The speed card provides a bonus to bullet travel speed when playing as a Sniper.

The cards provide upgrades and passive bonuses for both survivors and snipers. •Equipment: Cards are viewed, unlocked, and equipped in the Armory. •Slots: The sniper starts with 1 slot, the survivors start with 2 slots. Both teams unlock an additional card slot upon reaching level 50 (survivor) and level 90 (sniper). •Upgrade: Cards improve by gaining XP or by finding a higher-level card that automatically replaces the lower-level version. Upgrading advances the card to the next level, up to a maximum level for that card (which varies, usually III or V). •Duplicates: When you open a box and receive a card that has already been unlocked, it is converted into XP according to its level and rarity.

Crates are items that come from air crates, vaults, and advanced crates on the game maps, each with its own contents. If you die without winning a match, you will get it in your armory without it being completely lost.

⚠️: You can only open crates in the game lobby, not during a match.

Anti-personnel mine Damage: Lethal (If you are near its blast range). The anti-personnel mine is a common mine specialized to kill any individual; it can be identified by a slightly dark circle depending on the type of ground on the maps; you can stand on top of this mine without detonating it, and the sniper can even shoot the mine.

Trip wire Damage: Lethal-Medium (Can sometimes injure your legs and leave you incapacitated) The trap cable was added after the addition of Nowhere Hills. The tripwire consists of a wire attached to a grenade (I don't know which one it is, but it's not a hand grenade). The wire is almost invisible to the Runners because its thickness is absurdly low, but it can be deactivated by removing the wire attached to the grenade's safety pin. It cannot be activated by detonating the grenade with any type of caliber.

Anti-personnel mine present in: The Border, The Outskirts, The Front (At the end of the race), The Battlefield (Quite a few), Air Bridge. Trap cable present in: Hotel Skyline, The Hills of Nowhere (Quite a few), The Outskirts.
