No, this is about playing Domination and having 3-10 snipers on my own team camping the red line/mountains. Can't really take an objective When most of my team is hiding up in the red line with a sniper rifle thinking they're making a difference, though in all reality I think they really don't care if they win or lose as long as their k/d is good. They don't even bother trying to take out enemy snipers because my guess is if we miss a shot at them, they might figure out where we're at and we might actually die or something.
It's like they group up in the mountains, huddle around, somebody brings a 30 pack, and they just watch their team lose, but it's ok, their k/d is positive! Need more of an incentive for people to put down a sniper rifle and actually get into the battle and actually win a game. Their win/lose ratio might be terrible, but it's all about k/d man. Reminds me of this old comic I read that featured 2 cats as the main characters, they did an Unreal 2004 Assault strip about the train level where the attackers had to board the enemy train. All the attackers just got on their platform with sniper rifles and didn't bother boarding the enemy train then after the battle were like wtf, how did we lose? I got out my sniper rifle and everything.
If the sniper rifle wasn't so crap with aiming that I could get into the thick of battle and pop shots off all day (yes, I love to quick scope) I'd agree. I tried to play it like that and it was as about as fun as smashing myself across the face with a hot frying pan. Poor sightlines are my biggest gripe, the games designers have gone out of their way to make these map sniper rifle unfriendly, there aren't any hotspots you can snipe into without being overtly creative. Hanging 150+ plus meters away from the action is really the only bearable way to use the sniper rifle, any closer and you are just better of picking up a CR/RR/SCR.
