Increase zoom or give us better scopes. Crosshairs so it's not like a SL within 200m.
I tired using my trusty ishukone and from 300m away, targets were like cocroaches. It's really hard to sniper when you can't really get accurate especially from 300m away. Then I picked up my thales to compare the zooms and it is soooo much easier to sniper with just because it doesn't feel like you're tying to sniper ants. buff all sniper scopes maybe giving them ability to zoom in and out.

A better aiming system like most FPS games use would be a better buff TBH.

Oh like zoom 1 100 meters, zoom 2 300 meters and so on? When I snipe I stick with my lvl 2 tactical rifle. Less damage but more zoom.

Hmm...I didn't notice a difference in the zoom. Might have to double check that. I know it says 'increased zoom fidelity', but I really didn't see a difference in zoom.

Extra zoom would be shaaaweeet, but we'd need larger maps so that people could still run at a distance around a popular sniping spot.
It feels more like the damage needs to be improved on the basic hit for STD and ADV, OR possibly that armor and shield extenders cause only headshots to impact a bit harder (like 2% more damage per extender on target)?
Scaling is always an issue with snipers. Too much and they kill to easily, too little and they're useless. I don't use Proto snipers so I can't really say anything about them at the moment.

Make the sniper role more skill based. That way the trained sniper can get OHK and the mil sniper can be nerfed to bring balance to the Force.

If it exists in the game it should be useful. Right now the only use SRs get is for when a group of us are bored and and have redline sniping competition.

Nerf the militia sniper so that when someone gets tired of the cowardly, red line/unclimbable tower loving bastards that make up the majority of this game's snipers they have absolutely no chance to get you unless they skill in the coward's art?
I think not
Many of these whining sniper threads have cropped up recently and I say to this one as I do all, no one cares because most of you ***** KDR wh0res are annoying and usually useless to your own team at the same time.
Most tankers are like sand people. They frighten easily, but will quickly return...and in greater numbers.

So you don't like snipers therefore they shouldn't be in the game?

I dislike proto logis with 3 complex dmg mods and 1000 ehp with the most Overpowerd gun in the game (RR and CR) running around two hitting my suits within one one thousandths of a second. There for remove them.... but this is 90% of dust population so they have more power than me.
It's funny how you people act to a buff to the zoom capability of the sniper. They act as if it would make it OP!!

KDR wh=re... No! When I use Thale's it's only because I'm playing solo against protostombers (blueberryes just won't do the job for the win). I'll always start with D-links and run to the obj. If I die there alone I switch to Thale's and see enemy dropping while they stomb noobs, It's sad but true. But when I'm with my corpmates I'll do my job as the Logibro and that is rewarding!

Agree with Zoom.
Best buff would be OHK headshot (which it should be) regardless of suit. |

I dislike that heavies can't jump over small railings. I *hate* when I have 6 snipers on my team all sitting in one spot for the whole match with maybe three kills between them. You contribute about as much to the team as a poorly placed drop uplink - often considerably less. I've watched a player with a charge sniper manage three kills in over five minutes.
There are decent snipers out there sometimes - but in general I'd rather have anything else because they are plain and simple a better contribution to the team. |

I would rather SRs get removed, even if I lose all that SP I put in. Because most players cannot compete in cqc, everyone would go snipe from the redline. Think about it.

If you don't go 30/0 with a Thale's on a bad match, you're bad.
Shield regeneration bonus for Gallente Assault is about as useful as Sharpshooter for Nova Knives.

All of this ONLY if there are bullet physics.
Battlefield snipers are only balanced because of their bullet physics, if you want powerful snipers you need to make it difficult to make hits.

Yep good point. Remember it took few games of BF1943 to figure out how much time bullet need to travel. |
