One time I'm no where near the action - start running toward it, quite a distance away. Get sniped. Oh hae, thanks, now I'm only ten seconds away, thanks sniper!
Rarely do I see snipers make a tactical difference. One time there was a CRU we'd taken, but the sniper was covering the space between it and the objective. In that case that sniper was doing effective guard duty. And for myself, I've made an elevated platform full of reds be evacuated by my largely badly aimed controller shots. Didn't have to hit.
Some snipers make a tactical difference. But it's hard to tell them from the ones who are just selfish and pointless. |

One ruins the game by letting the fools retreat the moment they hit a setback in their master plan and makes the game unbelievably boring. The other is grossly unfair to any vehicle player out there (especially DS, they have no cover - Seriously? Everyone has a impossible to miss AV weapon?!?) There's a TROLL in Every Thread. You are now IT! *shrug* your entitled to your opinion I'm not even sure what a troll is in this context. I'm too old for this **** |

I can say the EXACT same things about assaults. I've been in one too many assault situations with useless, "cowardly"? assaults. There are cowardly assaults. There are Brave assaults.There are NO brave snipers. What about snipers that run around with their squad, using the sniper rifle as a close range weapon? I think Asudem from GAC is (or was) an example. Takes iron balls to seek out kills at <30 metres with the SR. ''using the sniper rifle as a close range weapon?'' Crazy people. We have TAC ARs for that purpose. It doesnt take iron balls, it takes mental disability to seek out kills at 30- mts with the Sniper rifle when there are clearly better weapons for the purpose.
jut so you know the tac AR is garbage. |

Ya lets all run around in the same suit using the same weapon. This is so F****** stupid. I use both, I am also a logi, Assault, and what ever the hell else wins the game. I am tired of people saying you should be one thing. Thanks ******, but I will choose to be free or die with my gun jammed down your throat |

I love snipers to, especially the ones that head shot the brainless lemmings that continue to run to hack objectives after watching their team member next to them get head shot. I especially love the snipers that pick off people running in an open field before they reach the objective or kill a team member. |

We have TAC ARs for that purpose. It doesnt take iron balls, it takes mental disability to seek out kills at 30- mts with the Sniper rifle when there are clearly better weapons for the purpose. For you and me, that's certainly the case. But I've seen at least one guy that could consistently get close range kills. For someone who can cope with the sway (not me!), the higher power scope on the SR versus the TAR probably helps with pulling off headshots even at short range. If he's more effective with a SR why shouldn't he use it?
PS This was pre-1.4, it may no longer be a viable play style with autoaim and improved hit detection for automatic weapons. |

Then each starter fit can have their own races AV ect. Also the sniper fit on my race (I don't know about others) isn't suited to the 'sniper' role. How many dedicated snipers use a fit that even vaguely resembling that?. Change the name to 'Marksmen' and give them the equivalent of a Mlt Tac AR and it would suit it better. |

"There is no brave sniper"...I guess i'm not a "Sniper" from your vantage point. There are some snipers that don't just lollygag in the back of maps acting like a total yutz, not caring about their team. But, there are some that are in the back surveying the layout and sniping the lollygagging snipers..and actually help their teammates...there are "blue/redberries" then there are good snipers.
Your outlook is biased.

I can back this as a previous squad mate, asudem use's sniper rifle and nova knives, and he does quite well. |
