It's not the rifle, it's the Sniper using it.

true I'm not a machine I don't hit every shot but I shouldn't have to hit a PRO logi with 2 headshots one body shot with a proto sniper, 3 dmg mods and profiecency 5 to kill him :D

Isn't this the ******* truth. Checkmate you're a moron, shut up; you clearly have NFI what you're talking about. TTK for snipers is absolutely woeful. I have prof 5 and stack 3 damage mods, and struggle to get kills with anything but the Thales (which I'm loathe to use in pubs) due to a) hit detection and b) players can shrug off 1 or 2 shots and move in to cover by the time I've made those shots. Now I'm not proclaiming to be the best sniper out there, but the class is so woefully ineffective that they're hardly worth playing (also seems to be a position widely held in the community, so tell me again why they shouldnt get some sort of fix?).

I've been a dedicated sniper since well before chromosome, but come uprising I've barely touched it because literally every other play style is more effective.

If u think snipers get aim assist u have no business in this thread. The renderign issue where targets vanish/reappear is a major issue too.

While you can snipe me with immunity i couldn't care less if your rendering or scopes are crap..... I'm an assault player but a real fan of the game wants every class to be viable, not just the ones you play. what are u 12? thats how toddlers reason.
