Get your cowardly asses out of the red line and help cap an objective, dropping half a guys shields while he is on the ass end of the map away from anything important isnt helping
Guys who always sit in one place and snipe behind the redline are kind of sad. The best snipers move around, hack and scout. Using the redline is a valid strategy at times but if you sit there, other snipers will smear your brains all over the landscape. Harvesting redline snipers is a great way to build up your K/D ratio if you are a counter-sniper.
As far as capping objectives, the new sockets have kind of shut that down. CCP have stated that the new sockets have been deliberately designed to stop snipers from covering objectives. All the new sockets have the objectives inside buildings or underground. All of the objectives have multiple entrances and exits. Many of these entrances and exits can only be covered from up close (less than 125m), so meeting an angry proto heavy with an HMG is a likely possibility. Tagging reds is often limited to nailing them when they approach or leave objectives.

As long as they let us snipers have the same ability.
I'd like to give some cowardly blue CQC guys a shot to the head when they run past red objectives or hide behind the action, waiting for some other blueberry to lead the charge.
Cull the weak.
That should fix things.

Also we would really like if we only had people who snipe, meaning if you squad up in this chat, then your doing it to snipe.
And before you ask, no we don't want Forge Gun snipers, and no we do not count Railguns as snipers.
If you want in on the chat channel, then just mail me or Natalia Kush. We will accept you as soon as possible. But if you don't have a sniper rifle, then you can expect to be kicked from the chat channel.
The channel is now invite only to prevent anti-snipers from joining
PS I know I put this in the War Room, but I also wanted it in General Discussions as well There should be no more than 2 Snipers in an effective squad. So I hope you arnGÇÖt making full squads of snipers, or you are going to generate a lot of Sniper hate from the Blues on your teams. Fox Guide: Sniping, The Role of the SniperFox Guide: Marksman, Taking Sniper to the next level
I agree, actually more than one might be too much.
The CQC guys are super important for taking objectives. Snipers can't easily do this in my opinion.
BUT a full squad of GOOD snipers (snipe, move around, hack, scout, cover objectives, counter snipe) might be fun to try, as long as the rest of the team are CQC guys. At least one dropship might be good, as well. Running sniper/logi rigs can be useful so we can support our team while not sniping. There is nothing like setting up an uplink right beside an objective in the enemy's rear.
There is a full scout squad I've seen out there that seems to do well, so maybe we could at least try a full sniper squad.
