Is it me or is the reality that this game doesn't need snipers EVERY MAP. I'm sick of people thinking that every match they should be able to snipe. It just doesn't make sense.
This is a game that punishes people if they dont specialize. Why should a dedicated sniper give up his role and SP investments on a match to match basis?
Dont get me wrong, im a lone wolf so me too I have a variety of suits for a variety of situations. But thats because I have my SP spread out so that I have more ADV options instead of just one loaded proto specialty.
But if someone chose to save the SP, and invest, and save and invest...they deserve to be able to wield their specialty in each and every game.

Perhaps you should start by listening, as many intelligent arguments have been made about the red line. For the sake of continuity, ill elaborate:
-CCP has designed alot of maps where it is a bowl shaped map ringed by mountains. With the mountains being the highest point all around the map, and it affording the most concealable cover.
-CCP has placed tall buildings and other prime sniping spots inside the redlines
-Your proposal doesnt consider the fact that 80% of the games played in Dust are one sided slaughters, and the removal of the redline would mean 6 maddys parked under the enemy MCC firing nonstop at anyone who jumps. (then you would probably propose an auto eject from the MCC too)
-The vast majority of the time "red line snipers" are in play, it is because their team has been beaten back and they have taken their tolerable limit of assault suit losses.
it might just be, just maybe, that if you keep the fighting in the middle of the map, instead of at the enemies doorstep, red line snipers would be rendered rather ineffective. But I suppose you want to be able to protostomp, and not have anyone defend themselves against it too.

I can count on one hand the amount of times someone in Dust has given me a honorable, fair fight. Just about EVERYTHING people do in this game is cowardly kill farming. From squads to orbitals to cloaked scouts, there is no shortage of people willing to do anything to get a good score.
So watch what you say, cause in mere minutes I could frame every tactic youve ever used as an act of cowardice.
