People think they are safe in the redline which is dead wrong you are even more unprotected because 90% of the guys who want to counter snipe you will look dead at the redline so yea claim it's advantages and how safe it is while me and all these counter snipers have a field day killing your sorry asses |

Again, point missed. You get where you are effective. The redline is just another part of the map. If you can hold an objective near the redline and get to the targets it is a valid position. |

I actually find it harder to hit mercs who are standing still, it's easier if they are running and you can lead them. |

Thank you. My point is proven. The redline is not safe from attack (Just as tactical as any position.) Therefore, the redline is not the real problem. Too many snipers and snipers that are not focusing on the enemy position is the problem. |

You clearly have never ran into or squaded with good snipers. Because good snipers tell you where everything is, what is being called in, where the enemy is and has far better range than any active scanner. And they can help with fire support Squad up with a good sniper and then try to have a way hate us for a good reason. And remember 90% of all snipers are bad snipers |

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.
PS I know I put this in the War Room, but I also wanted it in General Discussions as well you'd have to invite me to that channel sometime I'm wondering how many are actual snipers |

Well, that's what I was saying in another post. So again, redline sniping not the real problem. Ineffective sniping is. Vanilla assault players just don't seem to want to really make that distinction. Redline does not equal ineffective. Wrong positioning does. |

Wow, congratulations, you not only redline snipe without at least understanding the unfairness (yes, this is a game and if you don't share the same risk you demean the playing of it) implicit in it....you now try to use your military experience to lend some credibility to your untenable position.
ON BEHALF OF THE REST OF THE CURRENT AND FORMER MILITARY PLAYERS OF DUST, I APOLOGIZE FOR THIS BEHAVIOR.
Sniping and combat in general is not supposed to be fair, it's about winning...but this is a game, not real combat. Besides, a real sniper would go to the enemy redline and snipe. People like you are why I counter-snipe, I love making them lose Thales. |

Amen to that, that's why I usually try to fire a shot across their bow to get them to move. Comes in handy for that all too important defense of an objective that's being bandied about as the exclusive domain of assaults. If I can get them to move and duck and cover then that is more effective than a kill. See I'm not just about kills! Lol.
I give up a lot of kills to take several guys down to armor at once or make them move to the far side of an obstacle to help corral them for assaults. |

Operative 1171 Aajli wrote: And yetGǪ I didn't say I'm a redline sniper. I said that sniping from the redline makes no difference if you have a good vantage point and can get the shots. The redline on some maps is a better vantage point because you are up high and can see over things like roofs and railings. Redline is also a valid consideration for a sniper because you want your rear protected.
You want to operate as undetectable as possible. Redline can help with that. A sniper down in the sh*t is a bad sniper no matter how "useful" they might be. It doesn't mean more and better shots. You are at a disadvantage with a sniper rifle that close in. You are a great marksman though! I use a tac rifle if I want to go marksman though.
And it's funny. I know I must not be in the redline often because someone seems to come up behind me and shoots me.
So, once again we have a sniper thread with ppl who don't like sniping and slam all snipers only to have the argument get whittled down to what it's really about GÇö bad players, no matter the role and players who don't seem to be stroking the assaults.
Seriously, if assaults did their job the snipers wouldn't have to take the blame. From my vantage point that is usually the case; a bunch of assaults who can't hold an objective and one more assault doesn't help the matter.
So from your perspective its completely reasonable to expect 5-6 guys to defend or take an objective from the entire enemy team... Yea... that's completely reasonable... in an asylum. Although I do concede that there are some very oblivious non-sniping blueberries out there. The fact remains that teams primarily composed of red-line or tower snipers lose. Trying to argue that dead weight is an asset is insanity.
Also, people are not criticizing all snipers. They're criticizing the snipers who spend the entire match in the red-line or high points. Yes you are right, it is fine to utilize the red-line or high points to achieve a vantage point on a specific target; but you shouldn't be dead weight by spending the entire game there, especially if your not guarding an objective.
I'd argue about your vendetta against assault suit users if it weren't for the fact that there's some truth to it. Those petitions to nerf the logistic suits can get pretty stupid. Also your expectations give assaults way too much credit in what they can actually contribute in game; there are other roles and suits in this game besides snipers and assaults. |

the minute you decide to hide in the mountains and wait for people to walk by is the minute you should castrate yourself for being such a wuss.. doesnt matter if it helps your team or not its just pathetic. just my humble opinion but only scared noobs would hide and wait. its even worse if the dude thinks hes good at the game for getting a good k/d by hiding like a girl |

Your an idiot. I have sat in my little hiding spot and held off half a dozen guys from entering a hack site with a sniper rifle, while morons pour down on objectives just to get mowed down.
I kill snipers that are sniping my squad.
I feed intel to my squad all the time. Remember I can see everything.
I put 7 rounds into a proto FG sniper because if I don't he kills you... over and over.
For the record. If sniping isn't the best way for me to contribute, I grab an AR and get in the middle. And the guy halfway across the field might be dropping the OB that's gonna kill you, and taking half his shields just might make him pause enough to save your life. Stop being a tard and learn about what it means to be a part of a team.
P.S. this guy pissed me off, i'm really a nice guy. |
