why are you complaining that you can't be effective whilst doing NOTHING, never pushing the objective, pissing people off who are trying to 1v1 someone then they get sniped at the objective by some numb-skull who is too scared to even fight on the ground.
Why don't you just sit on the hill on the bridge map with 6 other snipers like I see every game, maybe then you can steal some kills and finally be able to kill the tricky militia suit.
By the way that person is wearing a militia suit because they don't have access to any other suits, do you think the game is fun for them if they're being one-shotted by somebody who is hidden so far behind the redline that they're invisible and invincible?
-1 for wanting to take all the fairness out of the game. Sorry that you're apparently too bad to ruin every single game like all the other snipers seem to do. They have no problem so you must suck!!
You get given free access to shoot onto any objective on any map in any mode whilst sitting hundreds of metres away impervious to infantry who won't be able to do anything about you as it would mean abandoning the objective and you still complain......... dude, don't even get me started on how important the sniper is (a good one). And it's really easy to counter sniper a glass cannon sniper. All you're other points are "I-AM-TOO-LAZY". How bout you pick up a sniper and fight me in my comfort zone?And FYI- It's nearly impossible to get a head shot using the DS3. BTW- a militia sniper in a starter fit isn't the same as a specced. Funny that i can do more damage with a viziam charge shot than a charge sniper. Obviously a good sniper is very effective. That's the problem - high reward, virtually zero risk.
Telling someone like me, who has proficiency 4 or 5 in RR, AR, and HMG but nothing in SR, and hundreds of hours of experience on the frontline but basically no experience with SRs (because I like take and hold objectives), to 'pick up a sniper and fight me in my comfort zone' is absolutely ridiculous. Why don't you come and fight me in my comfort zone, 0-80m? Because you'd get slaughtered, same as I would when engaging any skilled and fully specced sniper at 200m+.
A good sniper is a great asset to the team. The problem is (1) most snipers are not good, they go 2-0 or 4-1 in pubs and (2) due to the artifical redline dynamic there is basically no risk to sniping. It's the same as the situation with 1.7 tanks. Every class needs a hard counter; when the best counter is that class, that class is evidently OP. |
