Which scout race do you think would or should get the bonus? If it's the obvious cal scout i'm not against it but if you had to choose another which would it be?
Yes, my choice would be the cal scout, but if I had to choose another I'd go with the minny scout and here's why: Since the min scout already has the bonus to nova knives, which are suppose to be a caldari weapon, not to mention the min commando racial bonus applies to the swarm launcher, the sniper bonus could be applied to the minny scout. Perhaps not the same bonus, but maybe an increase in clip size and, either an increase in rof or a decrease recoil, which would be a bonus geared more towards the tactical sniper rifle. All of this is assuming we want to keep everything "uniform."
I could see the Min scout getting a natural increase in clip size or even sway reduction considering they're the quickest movers in the game. Also what are the bonuses as of now for all the scouts? I've been off dust for months.

Symbioticforks wrote:I beta tested this for you on live, and here are the results. Hitting moving targets has now become guesswork and not skill. You can have a player inside the circle but not in your direct line of fire. Meaning you have to guess when they will enter the very center of your cross hair. Before this it was as simple as watching two points intersect. The player and your dot. If they kept moving at the same rate of speed hitting them was rather simple. It was timing. Not guess where the exact center of circle is and when they'll be there. The sniper rifle has been a precision weapon that kills people from great distances by lining up shots. Now your exact direct line of fire is lost, the circle actually clutters up your shot. I feel like I've lost the ability to get moving head shots. Sadly, I was correct when I called this change the "guestimation circle of poor aiming". I had a friend of mine who is one of the top players for battlefield 4 as a forward recon give me his opinion of the sight. He said he didn't like it at all, that sight already exists in battlefield 4 and very few people choose to use it. I was like no ****. In conclusion..
- Hitting moving targets has become more difficult (no fixed accurate point for your line of fire)
- Just because someone is inside your circle doesn't mean you can hit them.
- Hitting someone who is head glitching has become more difficult (you need to place the bottom portion of an invisible dot on the very tip top of their head, and for this reason it favors degenerate red line snipers)
Sorry CCP Logibro, I appreciate the attempt to make the role better. I appreciate the slight damage increase to light damage mods now. I do not however appreciate the 1000-1400hp assaults running around. The Sniper Rifle isn't tuned to be effective against that much health by the way. You try it.
Nicely put. Then again, there are not that many snipers out there (I mean in this thread). I can see that people like the new "circle". It's really cute!!! CPP can you ple-e-e-ase hang around that circle couple more nice things (dongs maybe) and let me choose it's color and also... yes... make it glow. I'm having Katy Perry for dinner tomorrow. Wanted to impress her!
Really guys. It's some powerful stuff you've been smoking out there. Why don't you just look at the stats for the Snipes (shots/kills). It's bound to have come down quite some since that cross-hair / doughnut "improvement".
Also... If you want to have a real discussion you need to ask snipers how this stuff works for them. And by snipers I mean shooters who make at least 50% of kills by sniping (maybe more). They know what they talk about. With all due respect other players are not about to make life easier for snipers. So, it's stupid asking them how the new "doughnut" works. |
