1) Do you ever feel bad taking someone out that solo'd one heck of a fight to get a NULL? Have you ever just said "well, let him get the hack points and THEN I'll fire" or is it just TAP TAP?

2) I personally notice that I scan snipers and scan them and scan them and scan them and they never move. Do some of you just ignore it because you think a grunt will ignore trying to find you? I have to ask this b/c I had a match today that was probably the funnest match ever. I just kept finding snipers before they perched but it was as though they didn't think the scan applied to them or something.

3) I've read some posts that has given me a new respect for a good sniper. In addition, I receive two messages today telling me I did a good job. This was from the opposing team while he/she was trying to snipe me away from a NULL, mostly unsuccessful. Do you ever feel compelled to compliment someone? Do you find more respect for grunts when you see them do well equal to my new respect for snipers when I see one do well?

4) PS4 or XBONE?

5) If someone is in plain sight, what is the best thing we grunts can do to get the heck away from that final kill shot?

That is all.

Most snipers in this game are horrible, they are just lazy players looking to pad their KDR and look for a low risk playstyle, they no nothing of cover and concealment, they stay in the same spot the whole game, usually in the redline next to hives and spawn beacons that give away there position, or silhoueted on a hill, after they are killed they go right back to that same spot to get killed again, instead of using scout suits for mobility and low scan profile they opt for tankier suits with high profile and high hp, these are the redline snipers, they are horrible players and I have no respect for them, on the other hand I have great respect for the mobil sniper that is out on the battlefield staying hidden and helping his team.

I never understand the concept that a sniper on the move down on the ground is more useful than the sniper in the hill overseeing the entire battlefield. If you are running next to your squad mates with a sniper rifle.... you sir, are and idiot.

If you are running next to your squad mates with a sniper rifle.... you sir, are and idiot. Or you are a Musketeer. A Musketeer is a great asset to any squad as they help to take the edge off of high HP targets.
