I never met a sniper I couldn't kill, nor have I never hid well enough while remaining highly effective to not get love tapped once or twice. If you don't headshot me with the first round, your dead, period. Snipers love snacks, use your mic, feed him a distance and direction. If you don't pray to the angels, all they will do is watch you. #teamchat
On matchmaking being an issue, CCP already knows how keep newberries safe. EVE has high sec low sec null sec, they can implement that same system for Std adv and proto gear. CCP wants intense deadly interaction, which I fought through as a young merc like many of you did, without bitching I might add. o7

The conditions you just described literally do not exist the current form of this game. Even if that imaginary scenario was a reality that alleged sniper would only have 199 meters of 'shootable terrain'. He would be so far from being effective that you wouldn't know he was in the match. You would probably die from timing out in his redline before he would ever even see you. Do bad players abuse the redline? Maybe. Is anyone actually a viable threat while hiding deep in the redline? Hell no.

Every post about this subject is flooded with conjured theoretical nonsense about how the redline is a problem with no facts to back up these nonsensical claims. The facts are as follows: People hiding in the redline already get LESS rewards than those running around objectives. People hiding deep in the redline have little to NO tactical advantage over someone hunting them from outside the redline. People hiding in the redline CANNOT effectively cover the map or even a single objective after the new map updates. People hiding in the redline CANNOT see more than someone not in the redline. People hiding in the redline are NOT invunerable or even difficult to kill. People hiding in the redline are NOT invisible or even difficult to spot.
The tools are available to deal with ANY percieved threat in this game, you need to pick the right tool for the job.
Taking that above statement to mind, please try to present a valid argument as why the redline poses ANY threat to an experienced, well equipped merc.
