This has been brought up a thousand times by various sniper-hating miscreants, and the answers are always the same:
-Taking into account the sniper rifles in Dust are rail weapons, they wouldn't experience any noticeable bullet drop for well over 1000m, so until we have maps that large (not to mention scopes and the draw distance to support shooting that far) they already HAVE the proper amount of bullet drop, for all intents and purposes.
-Apparently the devs have stated the game can't handle all the calculations that would be required
-**** you. Snipers have already been crapped on enough. |

Ah, my mistake. I was under the impression jokes were meant to be funny and/or clever. |

Why? because they can no longer sit on top/inside MCCs and kill everyone with Thales? 
No, you simpleton. Having resistances and damage outputs changed. Having sniper platforms WELL OUTSIDE THE REDLINE removed because *gasp* they couldn't be reached on foot and were out of AR range, and GOD FORBID anyone has to get in a dropship or use the FREE sniper fit that EVERYONE has.
Oh, and btw, it's still possible to shoot people from on top of the MCC. I've seen it. But people who do that, or sit behind the red line, are NOT snipers. They're dicks with sniper rifles. There's a difference, they are a minority, and lumping them in with legitimate snipers is sheer ignorance. |

Quote:or we could shorten their reach which shouldnt effect those outside of the redzone but would surely affect those WITHIN the redzone sniping.. if the redzone snipers are a minority. then why are there so many hiding and sniping from the redzone and so few within this legitimate sniping area u speak of?
The thing is, there's NOT "plenty" of spots to snipe from, because whiny turds cried about getting sniped from on top of towers and high platforms. So those areas were removed, inclines were changed so they couldn't be stood upon, and others were made instant-death surfaces.
Shortening sniper's reach most certainly would affect legit snipers who operate outside of the redzone. Despite CCP's campaign to screw snipers over, there are still a few spots we can properly operate from outside the redline, and I consistently make kills from those spots at ranges +400m.
Quote:well heres what i want to do..i want to replace the redzone camp spots with a giant wall!
a giant wall that prevents sniping from a safe unreachable place.
Your wall idea is stupid, ignorant, and wouldn't work. If it surrounded the entire red zone, the only way out would be dropship, and turret installations would be useless. People also wouldn't be able to call in tanks or LAVs until they were outside of it. If there WAS a space/door big enough to get out of, then people would just shoot from there, or around the corner/behind the hill close to there.
Quote:i have never seen a guy using a thale come out of the redzone..
Because they don't drop often enough to risk it. The last time I brought out one of my Thales was to counter-snipe a guy who was shooting INTO my redline, and even when I did, I picked him off from behind the supply depot and put it away immediately.
Quote:that free sniper fit every1 has?
it sucks...
So? It still works, and it's free. You want something better, skill into sniper rifles and spend a little more. Otherwise, stop complaining. You don't see me whining about not being able to kill someone using a proto AR with a militia AR before they can kill me. |

Quote:that new derpship price we have now.... well at least im not losing to much isk now... so that little excuse is gone now since its actually cheap and affordable.
If you lose a dropship going after a sniper, then you suck. The most someone with a sniper rifle can do to someone in a dropship (aside from the very rare Commando sniper) is lob AV grenades at you or hit you with a flaylock.
Quote:and since u said all snipers that camp within and snipe from the redzone in heavy suits armor tanked proto logi suits and other things (which are also next to imposible to counter snipe)... i guess they r dicks too..
because u just called them dicks ur self..
I can't understand what you were trying to say with this punctuation-less run-on "sentence".
Quote:i dont want an end to all snipers....i just want an end to all "redzone snipers".
how hard can that be?
I'd love that too, because it would mean idiots couldn't lump them in with ACTUAL snipers when they cry anymore. |
