Just because snipers are in the redline doesn't mean their trying to pad their K/D like the you grunt TRYHARDS who use weapons like the rail rifles,combat rifles, scrambler rifles, of course still the ARs and in some cases the sub machine guns. SOME just try to find the highest, most useful, or even most well hidden (I can only hope without glitching because that really makes snipers look bad) points to help out you ungrateful grunt s who apparently don't need support..

Ok...so rail rifles, combat rifles, scrambler rifles, and sometimes SMGs are "try hard" weapons. So...you ok with nova knives and plasma cannons? What is acceptable play to you outside of sniping?

I'm not trolling, guy. You started with flamethrower posting and you've got some decent points to make but now you want basically layout that 85% or better of the players aren't good enough to play with on the same field as you?

To the first yes I am ok with novas but have trouble using them myself. I have a plasma cannon alt account and I can say it is challenging to use against infantry which most said it is supposed to be used for. Rail rifles shouldn't even need to be explained with the basic fact that it does 55 dps on BASIC and is has a further optimal range than most of the auto/semi auto guns on the game meaning you don't have to get better at using it just put it on any suit. Subs have their times but they CAN be used by true try hards. Scr definitely hasn't changed even with the 1.7 update but is just being used a little less(my be exaggerating when I say a little) with the RR and CR coming out. Combat Rifle eats up any suit just like and auto weapon/ burst weapon and with the fact that CCP has their priorities set wrong. There's nothing I can do but accept that this game is turning into COD514 w/ Tanks Tm. I love seeing everyone play but the way everyone (I don't mean EVERYONE) is playing it only pushes to separate the styles further than mix them in so all playstyles is acceptable and has counter measures going against each other all the while NOT FORCING people to be in tune with FOTMs

Every update we all have to adapt so of course I spec'd out of snipers. I love shot gunning other snipers and protecting lone nodes by myself or with a little help. At first I used scrambler rifles as a anti-infantry weapon while around crowded areas and run into, 85% of the time, assault logis, protos on every match (squad or not) dominating the field, and now heavies (which I love seeing). Not excluding heavies, the most weapons used include RR more than most and CR a little less as of the update while still seeing ARs. As said before my natural playstyle is opposite of this. I'm only in there for a little extra support. Most players have proven, (squaded or not) that they are in fact try hards trying to truely pad K/D or wins.

I'm not against that at all but if people or CCP keep trying to destroy a playstyle that most complain about then that's when a bigger "protection" is needed. I quote that because I know idiots will abuse it sooner or later. That answer everything clearly?

Personally I think we need to shrink the redline down to an area just under the MCCs to open more play area for snipers. You would probably need a mechanic that would mercy rule the game or better yet drop a CRU spawn point that's "pre-red" somewhere else on the map to give the other team a chance.

I quote that because I know idiots will abuse it sooner or later. That answer everything clearly? I'm having a hard time understanding your points. Maybe my reading comprehension isn't up to this at the moment. I don't understand what your definition of a "TryHard" is apparently. You listed all 4 basic rifles and the SMG (but only somtimes?!) as tryhard weapons. By design the majority of any match will have those weapons dominating because they are the most prevalent class of weapons. You are beefing a players for using the weapons provided by the game. My comment about nova knives and plasma cannons was a bit of sarcasm (which i admit doesn't come off well in text) because you effectively broadbrushed the majority of people in the game because of how they don't meet your standards of play. Also, you might have a different experinece than me but I certainly haven't run into Proto Assault Logi's 85% of the time. They are out there to be sure but not any where near the density you are describing from my experience. On that note, lot more Duvolles on the field again...the shiny of the new rifles is starting to pass and people are settling into what's comfortable for them individually. IF you are really talking about concerns with TTK or that suit classes need a refresh with your points that's a different subject and there are some good threads out you can participate in. IF you have something that contributes to the discussion about redlines...lets talk.
