the first thing I want fixed on sniper rifles is the hit detection. I've hit people as close as 50m and sometimes they take no damage. |

The charge can work but the charge slows the fire rate and allows the prey to escape. The KAAL is fast but again tank and they can still escape. So give me a weapon with adequate damage out put and I will deal with it. Yes if you want to make it harder give me bullet drop, someone kicking sand in my eyes, and fire raining down from the sky as long as you give me a weapon that can be called a true sniper rifle. You'll get a real snipers when you'll stop camping 500m away. You don't take risk you don't have damage. I don't see why you should be able to kill everybody easily from redline or 800m away while we can't shoot you. You want to kill everybody easily with no challenge? Go play a Coop game. You don't even have bullet gravity.
Oh yeah, and just what do you propose a sniper does instead of "camp" 500m away? That is literally the role. Now, that doesn't mean they can't be used tactically to gain intel and move around... but this is literally the definition of a sniper. If you had said "the redline makes this unfair" I would have agreed with you, but if you think being 500m away means "no risk", you're an idiot. As soon as the opposite team know you're a threat (generally after around 10 kills), usually you have half - a full squad hunting you down, or they take up a sniper rifle and try to counter snipe you.
Maybe you should pick one up and give it a go instead of giving a completely uninformed opinion that nobody wants or cares about.
If you want to play a game with no class diversity, go and play CoD. This is not a game where snipers should be running and gunning |

I've said it many times. I'll say it again.
If you can't kill with a sniper rifle, you're bad at this game. You should be able to EASILY kill anything that's not a sentinel or possibly a shield tanking Caldari that hides after you hit him once.
Yes, the zoom sucks unless you use a Thales. Yes, your KDR isn't going to be spectacular. That's not the point of sniping in this game. The point is no other weapon can reliably kill enemies at the hack panel from half a mile away, or catch enemies on top of a building by surprise quick enough to kill them. Forge guns work comparatively well but they stop working after 400m, are easy for the enemy to spot, can't zoom and have less ammunition. It is one of the few weapons that actually make use of profile dampening. It's the easiest way to go 10/0 in an ambush.
I never went past Level 4 sniper but since they're abandoning the game I've decided one of the first things I'm spending my SP on will be Prof 3 so I can finally use a Thale's.

The sniper rifles definately need work, they suffer horrible hit detection issues which mostly clear up briefly when you switch weapons, but that's not good because it invariably takes a while to realise that your not just missing or hitting cover you can't see
Which brings me to my next point, the x ray vision glitch, if i can't hit you i shouldn't be able to see you.
People always say how easy sniping is, Lol, then it turns put they haven't tried it, ok some **** poor snipers sit in the red line, well it's a war game and people will exploit things, not much you can do about that one until some big changes happen we're unlikely to get. But stop tryin to tell us dedicated snipers our games too easy you haven't used an sr and in one particular case don't even know what the need is to kill heavy troops or which fit is even a threat to people. To that person i say why don't you sir grab an advanced sr in your lol logi suit with it's stacked damage mods and lol take a no risk (i'm guessing in your opinion high gain) position and go get yourself a 20/0 round.
Also sniper ballistics ha, yes indeed, yes please just as soon as hit dectection and realistic damage is included with my bullet travelling at 2,500 mps over 500m ranges i'm sure you'll suddenly be very hard to miss.. i mean hit.
All we are really askin for is an increase to headshot damage so our skill is rewarded, maybe some better vantages to allow us better opportunities to do our role, or at least improved scopes as they are a joke and that when a shot is on target it lands on said target. |

Did I mention I never get lag except on rare occasions which usually last a few seconds then go away?
Yeah, you people who get horrible lag and hit detection, I don't know why you're playing this game. But it's not the sniper rifle's fault.
