Saw this coming. With 150m more range than any other weapon redline snipers will rarely fear redline counter snipers now, and besides still being out of range forge gunners will just be snipe fodder while tanks/ads won't even bother with them since they cant be killed by them and will do more good focusing on the hotspots.
Sniping is a problem that will will never be solved or balanced. I'd rather fight a proto cloaked scout with a basic logi than deal with a redline sniper.

Here is a btter question, and probably a good original topic if someone wants to ask it. Does anyone have a problem with snipers in ambush? I would bet that the answer is no. If that is the case, then you know exactly what the problem is, and the problem is the redline, not snipers.
I made a impossible fix suggestion once... Cut damage going in and out of the redline by 50% making staying there lame promoting getting out and hunting the enemy redline dangerous to the point of stupied.
And I've never seen snipers in ambush.G£în+Å

CCP rattiti, you said you did not like ADS gameplay because you basically got to kill without worry, redline snipers are exactly that.
The only counter to a redline sniper is another sniper, or a suicide dropship hotdrop. Oh, and because of the range nerf, countering a redline sniper requires a sniper to counter-snipe from the middle of the battlefield. This means in that the person counter-sniping has to deal with the snipers AND infantry AND vehicles.
This is EXACTLY the same as how AV vs ADS was before.
I actually really like the changes to snipers, but please for the sake of being consistent fix this type of risk-free gameplay.
Either ensure that all points are at least 500 m away from the redline, or don't allow snipers to fire out of the redline. I prefer the 500 M redline option though just in case one team redlines another team. you're wrong and I'm sniper played all day today and these modifications leave obsolete sniper, the reason is simple, the distance is very short, and everyone sees you, and you die by rookies, besides these at ground and you can not see anyone that hinders all the sniper to death, while this is not correct I leave Dust and therefore not buy again auron.
Next day replaced by non sniper... Game improves for all G£în+Å

No redline, no MCC, if it's not ambush oms they can't call in vehicals to get to high ground...only good thing about ambush
