More of a benefit to the whole of a team than you are apparently

What do i bring? How about the ability to one man protect an objective leaving the rest of the team to take and defend everything else (a good sniper can hold and protect an objective). Or how about those nasty forge gunners on roof tops sniping at you and keeping you from getting your dropship up there to kill them who do you think gets rid of them? It sure as hell isnt you. Or what about that one nasty dropuplink the enemy is spawning on that NO ONE on your team seems to notice is there? Who do you think gets rid of that? The sniper of course. Like i said before they are more use in a match than you will ever be. Learn the facts before hating on a class that is clearly better than whatever it is you run

Enemy heavies? Let me weaken them for you so you get a free kill.

Enemy snipers? Already dead to me.

Getting shot from rooftops? No problem.

Scout about to CQC you? He's messing with the wrong berry.

Uplink on a rooftop? Don't worry about it.

Someone's capturing a point? They're in my sights.

I'm barely doing anything? Probably means I'm having something or looking for a better advantage point.

Not if that sniper carries proto swarms >:)

Beer, laughs and forum tears. That's what I bring.

I quit calling them snipers, as that insinuates some form of marksmanship.
These pukes are just cushioning for my LAV when it drops from an RDV.

I've literally defended a domination objective on ashland with my thales. The enemy team had all controll over the aera but I didn;t let anyone hack and we won. Went 34-0. Mostly because I was able to head shot targets with a thale's that were standing still.

• Intel Gathering
• Area Denial
• Suppression
• Point Defense
• Re-allocation of hostile resources
• Clearing Towers & Equipment

Do I need to go further?

If you don't know then don't act as if you do.

Snipers are very useful.
if you don't think so then you simply don't know any of them.

the foolish berries who go sit in the red lines or the ground troop who decides "this is a difficult round, i'll go snipe" or the player who uses his rifle to pad kdr. are not.

but

what use are:
blueberries that team kill?
players that will hinder their own team out of hatred for a certain class?
people who go afk?
squads that completely give up and hide?
players who continuously run up to the same person that just killed them and repeatedly get killed?
Solo players who try to take out full squads?
tank drivers who insist on driving their tanks even on maps where nobody is reachable for them?
or by your logic what use are any vehicles-killing clones isn't viewed as useful, so they don't hack things, if there were no vehicles we wouldn't want them for a.v.
or for that matter
by your train of thought why don't we just get rid of everything that doesn't have the word assault in it, because ultimately they can do everything that needs to be done.

if you can't handle people not wanting to play your way
i'd suggest you go back to single player games

Which includes Snipers, so your point is null.

Though I've yet to find a role that allows you to do all of those things at the same time (without changing your loadout). With that in mind, may I also ask what the point of the Logistics is?

I mean, any Scout or Light Frame can utilize their equipment Slots to have as much support capabilities as the Logistics while also having comparable eHP and better Biotics and eWAR capabilities.

Another good question, is why we have Assault suits when my Commando has better DPS with a high eHP pool, along with a 2nd Light Weapon Slot. My Commando is obviously the better slayer so why have them?

May I have a special reason as to why we need Assaults and Logistics in THIS game?


You make the assertion that Snipers don't need to be in DUST, so burden of proof as to why they shouldn't be rests in your hands.
