A good sniper can change the entire flow of battle.
Unfortunately, virtually all dedicated snipers in this game suck and have 0 impact in game. When I get shot or killed by sniper, do you know what I do? I ignore the sniper. Chances are the sniper isn't helping his team and therefore not worth the effort of countering.
And don't blame the gear. It's not the gun that's inadequate, it the merc holding the gun. Wont take the effort to line up headshots? Can't be bothered to hit your target multiple times? Won't make you shots matter in helping your team win because your too busy padding worthless KDR? Oh "boo-hoo".

yep the upper 1% of snipers in this game are capable of making it a good weapon, completely and totally balanced gun. i'm glad every other gun in the game requires so much skill that it is of equal balance, it's not like anyone can pick up a rail rifle or combat rifle and completely change the flow of a battle, you definitely need to spec into a specific class of suit and max out all of you profs with that gun to be capable of doing decent with those guns. You twist my words. The sniper rifle is incredibly easy to use. The people that use them just tend to suck.
You think sniper rifles with hit scan and no bullet drop requires a lot of skill? A gun that you can literally spend the entire match using just one hand to point and click qualifies as requiring lots of skill to you?
PS: Mentioning other easy mode toys is not a justification that your weapon isn't one.

PS: Mentioning other easy mode toys is not a justification that your weapon isn't one. not twisting much "A good sniper can change the entire flow of battle.", "virtually all dedicated snipers" can't do this, thus thus almost all snipers aren't good. the remaining few must then be able to use the gun and make it good thus it must be a very difficult gun to use effectively. now you are saying it's an easy mode gun even though you just made statements proving that it's a very difficult gun to use, if not everyone would be able to use it well. your statements are starting to become confusing. You are doing it again.
Also this: "the remaining few must then be able to use the gun and make it good thus it must be a very difficult gun to use effectively" is flawed logic as you ignore the obvious that people sucking with a weapon does not equal a weapon that is hard to use. I have never stated or insinuated that the gun was hard to use. That is something you are intentionally misinterpreting for the purpose of being annoying.
You remind me of my friend. The only difference being that he is actually clever and can force me to eat my words. You... not so much.
