Moving around the battlefield picking targets of opportunity, is a genuine way of Sniping. The current Yo-Yo effect of the Scope makes this nearly impossible to do effectively, and is sad, because nothing is more spectacular than seeing a good sniper Dynamically sniping at mid-range. Now that we have this wonderful aim-assist-bot, can you remove the Yo-Yo effect from the Scope ? please ? |

We use to have that, but that Skill was remove. But i can't see why we can have it again, now that all the Scrubs are using the aim-assist, only REAL snipers are sniping. |

its marker should be decreased damage for greatly increased stability for dynamic sniping like this.
I agree, the Tactical Sniper Rifle should fulfill this role. It already have only 3 bullets, and lower damage per bullet than the standard rifle. Just remove the yo-yo effect form the TAC CCP. |

If you like the Sniping right now, is because you like sitting in the red-line or in a hill ( Static Sniping ).
I like hunting my targets, and providing mid-range support to my team ( Dynamic Sniping ). |

A Glu-5 tactical (or duvolle).
I wouldn't count on those weapons filling your void. 8)
The Kaalakiota TAC is a beautiful weapon, i recently started to use it myself. But it just needs that scope movement to be reduce a little bit, and it will be the perfect "Hunting Rifle"  |

Flying helps, and shooting parallel to roads and main pathways.
Yes, i know all that. But how many clear shoots you have missed because it takes long to stabilize your aim ? It should be more "Dynamic" ;
Sprint, active track, kneel ,scope, track, shoot
or
Sprint, stop, scope, track, shoot |

So you should welcome a more Dynamic role for the TAC Sniper Rifle. You can use the standard one for long range support, and the TAC for cover and suppression. |

Unless you guys are talking about recovery per shot* if TAC snipers got such a nice little buff their range would have to be decreased or at the very least they should have a bigger damage fall-off**.
*don't really know what to call it so i'll stick with recovery after shot or per shot
**don't misunderstand a very shallow and empty idea
I personally believe the snipers are fine the way they are now and shouldn't be messed with, aside from the cr*ptastic scopes.
I was talking about the time it takes from the moment you STOP to the moment you SHOOT. If you aim is "very good" you can land a shoot in about 2 seconds, with lots of aim corrections. But if you wait for your aim to stabilize first, can take as long as 4 or 5 seconds to land a shoot... and that is... very ridiculous. |

I don't saying is impossible, you can actually predict the scope movement as you zoom. With practice is possible to land shoots in 1 second, and that is when moving too. I already done that few times. I just want it to be a bit easier.... |

Half the time I just don't find the sniper no matter how hard I look. What are your sniper hunter methods? One thing I noticed, that occasionally if you zoom all the way in, you can see nanohive globes on the deployment map. That is a fun minigame. If I could see muzzleflare from that as well (am going to thoroughly investigate tonight), I may have the answer. It is harder to see in the redline though. Sorry snipers for picking on you, but you got it good with no killcam 
I actually started sniping to kill snipers ...the irony ... But is not hard to learn the favorite places of camping Snipers, is only few optimal places in each map. |
