Ok... Here it is
1.) Change Sniper Rifles Labeled To High Power "Bolt Action" Snipers Rifles. Not Really Sure One the Damage and All but It Would have a lower Rate Of Fire, (like it does now, only a Little more) but a Bit More Damage. Mag Size Should remain the Same... also increased X Mag on the Scope. ... and Then 2.) Change Tac. Sniper Rifles, to Medium Damage Semi-Auto, Kinda Like they all are now.. but slightly more, and lower the base damage... also change the Scope upon them to a Acog. or 2x zoom or Something Comparable
Anyway Examples...
The Bolt Action Sniper Rifle M-40A3
...and Semi Auto Comparable DM Weapon M-14 (beautiful)
Not Providing Links.. you can google Them if you'd like.. if you don't Know what they are... They are Iconic Firearms ....

Seems alright but not much of a massive change and will need a whole new skin on one of them. Never quite sure why the tact has more zoom than the normal though

Make them DM rifle it's own weapon with a separate skill tree. It's not a sniper rifle and should not be labeled as such. It's bad enough that so many ignorant fools in Dust want to force actual snipers to be DMs, when the two roles are completely different.
As for the bolt action idea, that's pretty much how the charge sniper functions already. Greater damage in exchange for more time between shots. Why add another that does basically the same thing? |

The point being what exactly?
First are you a sniper. Not likely since what you want is a side door Nerf of sniper rifles.
There is only one sniper rifle scope in the game that is not total junk. It is the Thale. Period. Everything else is shrouded in mysterious cutoff distance and magnification limits of 3 to 1. Maybe.
Just play the game.
And so it goes.

I always see posts of people asking for the sniper rifle's to be changed into their clone's .
Stop asking for tiercide , your killing variety and the fun of this game at the same dam time .

Ignorant ? buddy I was O358, in the Marines. The M-14 is and will Always be considered a Sniper Rifle... It's use during 1950's - 1970's, it was replaced with the m-39. which i am familiar. They Both Fire the 7.62x Round The M-39 Is By Far Better.. but The M-14 still Sees Use today.. and I was a DM, and SDM. I Know what I'm Talking about Bud. OH let me explain DM For you a little more THE DM OR SDM (Squad), Is responsible for engaging At Targets in an excess Of 500+ or More Yards, and go through Specialize Training Similar to that Of a Sniper.. and They are Also Considered a Sniper But not "True" Snipers... anyway we are Talking about the Weapons... If you want to know more Please just Ask.. Show you on how Ignorant I Am. Swift,Silent,Deadly.

When I referred to "ignorant fools" I was talking about all the sniper haters around here who say that snipers need to "get in the fight" and "run with a squad", which is not what snipers are meant to do at all. I wasn't referring to you.
As for bolt-actions being "satisfying", we'll just have to agree to disagree on that one. When it comes to real life rifles, I'll take a semi-auto like the PSG1 over a tired old bolt-action, but that's just me. In New Eden, though, bolt-action weapons would be so outdated and impractical, it's laughable. Why not put in a muzzle-loading musket? |

There Something Satisfying about Pull the Of the Bolt and Loading Another Round in the Chamber. besides IT would Be Good Changes.. The Charge... The Bolt Would be Slightly Faster if its a Straight Pull Bolt.. i'm getting off track... anyhow. Can you elaborate more about what a SDM/DM squad does? It sounds like something missing from the game atm and would maybe provide some clarity on this post.
As for engaging targets at range, we have somewhat small maps at the moment but my CSR can barely reach halfway across a map without suffering miss hits. We could really use a weapon effective at the +500m range right now, scouts have cloaks but there are plenty of time when I wish there was a tool for the other end of the spectrum that I could replace, the CSR just doesn't cut it.

Guess i'm Just Old Fashion.. But i'm More One Round to Put Target Down... Psg-1 is a fine Fire-arm I've had the privilege of Firing it as well.
However It Lack Stopping Power. its Muzzle velocity Peaks at about... 850 m/s, and only Effective at 700 meters. after that its ****... you see the Psg-1 is the Law Enforcer's Weapon Designed for Urban or Metropolitan Areas where Range Is Usually about 100-300 meters.. it wasn't Designed To be fired outside of that. its Semi-Auto Function is Known to use a Roller delay Feedback. but its locks up from time to time, and while its Mag Feed and ammo Cap its great as well as its accuracy, it was Designed To be a Bigger Version Of a G3, also Lets not forget its Alot More Expensive to produce.. Also Maintenance is Harsher, Less moving Parts, Less Scope Variety, Damages Brass, Weighs more,Larger Visible Profile, more Likely To damage The Rifle... These are Some of the Problems Of the G3 and Semi-Auto Sniper Rifles, and Rifles in General.
Now.. i'm am picking my to Compare it to a Bolt-Action Well.. Lets see i'll go with my Favorite that i've got experience on ....
The Lovely M-40A3 Well Lets Start with Its Muzzle Velocity Its Variable From about 750- 900 Depends upon the Round. But Its Effective Range is Between 900-1153 Meters, It uses The Same Rounds as The PSG-1, However.. Its more Reality,not To mention Ohh idk..Quieter action, Can fire-form custom brass, Better for suppression, Little-to-no blow-back, Lighter!!!! , Smaller visible profile, Close-long range engagement capabilities, oh also Better follow-through at longer ranges no secondary recoil due to a moving bolt, so the rifle will be more still..., More precise/accurate at longer ranges, Able to free-float barrel, Oh and a Very Big ONE LESS EXPENSIVE.... OH and way Easier Maintenance, And Brass Policing Doesn't Send it 20 feet away... unlike Semi-auto.
You can Keep Your Semi-auto..
