If they did, regardless of how much your suit cost and regardless of how zero risk those snipers were, then that's perfect balance! Snipers should be OHKO I mean, it's a sniper! So 1hking a 200k suit with 0 chance to react isn't op, riiiight. ohmygodyou'redense

I don't see people complaining abut Shotguns when they get killed by one in a compound. Well i do, but their complaint doesn't hold merit. Travelling into an open field? I was in a match with him earlier (Fractured Road Domination - I know this cos he wrecked me in his Commando) and we had a Thale sniper taking potshots on the point (on my team, not his).
You then have two options: one, go out into the open (i.e. contribute) and get two-shotted (or less) or option two, (and this would probably have been my choice had I been on the other team) AFK.

That's not entirely true, as at any point in time a Sniper can be killed by those weapons as well (unless they're in the redline, which is an issue of Redline Mechanics, not the Sniper Rifle).
Well, that's ONE weapon, compared to every single weapon in DUST. A Sniper can be killed by every single weapon besides a Swarm Launcher (and theoretically a Flaylock Pistol), so your point is moot.
I once got killed by a Thale's sniper from 596m. I was in a cheap suit (i.e. free) so it was an OHKO.
I was in the centre of the map.
Please tell me how I'm supposed to fight him? I can't find him on a vehicle scanner because he's dampened, I can't move fast enough with a wide enough scan radius to find him on foot, I haven't invested enough SP in SRs to beat a redline Thale's Sniper who's probably in a bricked GalScout or something. I can't even rail him thanks to the range nerf, even if I could find him. Makes killing the fatsuit ones a chore too.
This is a disturbingly similar argument to the one you railed against for so long from tankers.
