Alternate Information
The Intercept-L200 is one of two snipers available throughout the game. It is the first sniper unlocked in multiplayer. The Intercept is considered to be the best sniper rifle due to its high damage and availability through lower ranks.

The Intercept, when equipped with FMJ Bullets will instantly kill any targets with a single hit as long as you are scoped in. You cannot have a suppressor on, because it will remove the instant kill. This means that you can have three good sniper classes - a medium-range one with an ACOG Scope and FMJ Bullets, a long-range one with a Stock or Flash Hider and FMJ Bullets, and a class for Alert and Warehouse with a Thermal Scope and FMJ Bullets.

Suggested Uses/Game Modes
The Intercept is extremely good at picking off enemies at long range. Enemies at close range generally move too fast to hit, but enemies at long range move very slow relative to your character. I advise that you stay back from the action and kill enemies who are defending an area that you want to take. I strongly advise you NOT to attempt to capture a flag alone, as the Intercept is a low-mobility weapon and you'll be unable to both defend yourself and run away.

You can camp, of course, but that is rather n00by. Camping, as long as you're a good camper, is a very effective tactic. This wiki will have a page on suggested locations in a few weeks' time.
