There are some serious problems which prevent the Sniper Role from being viable in both Competitive and Non-Competitive Gamemodes, so please give me a list of things you want changed to the Sniper Rifle.
I'll create a list of these requests, and then put it up in Feedback/Requests.

The problem with giving Sniper Rifles a shorter range is the fact that they'll quickly become the snacks that smile back for anybody who's bored and decides that they want a free kill.
If someone wanted a short-range version of the Caldari Sniper Rifle, they'd use a Scrambler or Rail Rifle.

Yes, however it doesn't require you to remain stationary, nor does it force you into a "tunnelvision" view.
They aren't really comparable...

Also, it is impossible to snipe a moving target with controller, the scopes suck because you cant see sh*t so head shots are impossible.
Changes I would like: Change sniper operation to 20% damage mod efficiency per level so a complex dmg mod does 10% damage when using a sniper on the suit.
I'd rather see base damage values adjusted instead.
Making it to where you can only have a great damage output at Level V would turn-off potential snipers, as anything below Operation V would be worthless.

Well if that's the case, how about a proposition?
Attack a Heaven's Lost Property district. In the PC, do absolutely nothing but snipe with the Sniper Rifle. If you place 3rd or higher with it, I'll pay you 60m as well as another 36m to cover the clone pack.
But if you place lower than 3rd, then you have to pay me 50m, as well as make a thread saying that you were wrong about Sniper Rifles being viable.
How's that sound?

Sniper rifles aren't meant for farming kills like your usual frontline d-bag. Ever hear of a (non-assault) dropship pilot placing 3rd or higher? Hell no. Are they useful? Hell yeah.
WPs don't mean ****- especially in competitive game modes.
Considering how slaying is the only thing a Sniper is rewarded for, I'm going to go on a limb and say that your wrong. However, since you aren't CCP you stating what something is meant for is about as credible as this.
Non-Assault Dropships are literal cannon-fodder in PC. They're so useless that it's not even funny.
So then you would be fine with all of your actions yielding 0 WP in PC? I mean after all, WP doesn't mean anything competitive game-modes.

Most of you guys who are having problems with rendering.......STOP SNIPING FROM MCC ROOF. You have to be right at the edge to get past shields. You also need range modules. Same goes for hiding behind rocks. There are a few bugs that need fixed. Snipers need NO RANGE increase or damage increases. I can two shot 'most mercs'..... DOOOOOOOONGGGGGGG. Timing is EVERYTHING!
I'm not even going to waste my time with forming a rebuttal to this anecdotal dribble.

1. Your not CCP, so you saying "to late to ever be fixed" may as well be the ramblings from a 4 year old child.
2. Fallacy.
Should I bother forming a rebuttal to the rest of this drivel?
