No buffs until redline sniping is removed |

If this is the case, you've probably been hit headshotted. With the limited zoom, bad rendering and system glitches that's quite an accomplishment for a sniper behind the redline. Keep moving, keep your head down, and look for cover. Rest assured that when a sniper is so far in the redline he hardly ever contributes much to the team, which means more wins and war spoils for you.
Wow, people will defend ANYTHING.
Is there an OP weapon? "I can do good with other weapons so it's not OP!"
Is there and UP weapon? "Not every weapon can be competitive" or "I killed someone with it so it's balanced"
Uncounterable tactic? "Just avoid them!" |

"Not every weapon can be competitive" or "I killed someone with it so it's balanced" Uncounterable tactic? "Just avoid them!" I don't think sniping from deep in the redline is OP. It sucks, as it doesn't help the team much. The redline Sentinel isn't mobile, has hardly any zoom, doesn't have a clear view on objectives, can't shoot inside buildings, can't hack anything, and is easily suppressed. Yes, it's pretty much uncounterable, but so is a headshot from a cloaked scout, a swarm to your HAV, etc. As long as it doesn't dominate the outcome of many matches, it''s not OP.
All of those have some sort of counter
Sitting in the redline is 100% uncounterable |

the term 100% uncounterable would mean there is no way to kill a red line sniper, which i'm afraid you are very wrong about.
I think what you meant to say is red line sniper are 100% uncounterable by the tactics you are currently empoying without changing the way you currently play the game.[/quote]
I'm not going to suicide into the redline with a dropship
Another sniper cannot be the counter to snipers. That's like saying tanks are the counter to tanks. |
