I guess I will have stop playing or tank out a Sentinel or Commando for sniping because a light will not cut it at 400m max. I guess the Devs do not understand what a snipers roll is.
No offense, but 400m is way over enough range to be a sniper in any suit. Also you can't say that Rail rifles and such are killing you at 200m because they do so little damage that it won't affect you.
I do my fair share of sniping in Commandos, Scouts, and logis and only rarely do I sit out at 400m. Usually i'll be within 200 meters doing fairly decent.
Only difference now is more snipers will be easy to spot because they aren't used to being anywhere near a battle and don't know how to move from position to position to avoid being killed. Plus look at it this way, You are doing significantly more damage with all snipers, and being closer makes head shots easier so its easier to score a kill and then move to a new spot.

Regarding: Sniper rifles "reducing range a little". It would appear I seriously don't understand this statement.
Hopefully he was joking or being ironic because losing 25% of 600m does not seem a like a 'little'.
He and I don't share nationalities so this might have been meant as a joke, or was meant in a joking manner but frankly I find that it is insulting.
I have SP to spend after the event but I hesitate as I don't want to spend it where 'little' adjustments are already targeted, making my hoped for improvements primed for a 25% gutting. Not just in Echo, but longer term.
You do realize that 400m is still over enough to sit in your redline and effectively fire into objectives on most maps? there was literally no point in it having 600m before. Hell on most maps I can sit in the redline and be within 200m of objectives. It seriously is only a slight reduction when you think about how some maps from redline to redline is maybe 500-600m.
