lol good luck with that one buddy

Nothing outside of banning that playstyle will stop it from happening. People like playing snipers and thus will snipe where it's most safe to do so. It's a problem that can't be fixed because it's how people choose to play

I demand the sniper rifle damage be halved and headshot multiplier negated when in the redline. Actually this should apply to redline railgun tanks as well (not as prominent as before but can still be found).

Its the redline!!!!!

You are approaching this all wrong. Instead of penalizing the damage when firing from the redline, just remove the rewards. If you make a kill in the redline you do not earn WP; simple as that.

...unproductive to them team, our team lost cause we had 5 snipers redline sniping. And not coming out to defend the objective.

The changes are really good but it has not changed the fact that snipers still snipe from the redline in a carefree fashion. I thought the change will bring them out from the redline but that is not the case. Actually its has become more tough to counter-snipe them, cause you have to do so in from the middle of the battlefield.

When have snipers ever been productive members to the team. They all think they are master marksmen and can change the battle from afar when in reality they are less useful then the guy in Frontline thats going 1/10 since he at least is going to make the enemy waste ammo at best snipers are a nuisance and thats all they ever will be.

All of this is things that were warned about in the feedback leading up to the hotfix.

that they would become safer due to being unable to counter snipe effectively, would still be in the red line,etc.

there will be red line snipers as long as there is a red line.
because the problem is twofold.

1.there are far too many of the best positions in the red line with far too many maps with no real spots outside red line areas at all.
2.there are some players that are only using the red line because they don't like being killed. - no amount of range nerf is going to make this type of player leave the red line.

with the first,
the reason for the range nerf is to try and let us use these spots without it being impossible to kill us from outside of our red line.
in other words to make us vulnerable to players that want to actually deal with us, without them needing to suicide.

with the 2nd sad but true... at least now they are easier to snipe and they can't rely on their heavy suits to protect them from losing their thales anymore.

being productive

I'm starting to think both casual players and devs don't care anymore for actually treating the issues of this game. You can simply see nearly every problem with the game simply by looking at the guns, some suits and scout players especially. While random stat changes are being brought up. No one seems to care for the fact that ADS are still invincible, Snipers can still play with high reward and no risk, scouts are still more powerful than a majority of suits, and other things mainly because this game is team based and none of these things even have roles for a team.

*edited for length and Pointless minutia*

The reason for my choice is because I die too much in close quarters combat! This game was originally something that all kinds of people could play comfortably within the range of their specific skill-set but now with the most recent update, especially the severe reduction in sniper rifle range, the programmers have effectively tied the hands of all snipers! The most recent news was that the programmers reduced the range only a little but the real truth is that they have not just cut the range in half, they have cut it down to almost nothing! You can't even snipe from some of the tall hillsides & forget about using the towers!

having a max range of six hundred meters was a absolute must because without it, you can't even reach to the middle of the large sized maps! Of course, this most recent change makes the point of even having a sniper rifle useless!!!!

I have been routed many times from my chosen sniper nest in more ways than I can count! I have had the enemy pull a Kamikaze maneuver on me with drop ships, been run over by Onikomas, enemy snipers firing on me so much that I was effectively pinned down so I couldn't make another shot. So, as one person here has said about the game having a balance, it did but that was before hot fix Delta. Now, it is so unbalanced that the only way that any one can use a sniper rifle, is to shoot from the hip at close range & that does not make it a sniper situation at all!

The point to being a sniper, is to maintain that elusive distance & keep your enemy guessing your location but if the makers of this game, want to cater to a few wimps that do not know how to adapt, then they might as well forget about the true tactics of this game!! Hey! Programmers!!! You had a good thing going here & most of the common historical tactics used in the past world wars have been applied to this game with a few unorthodox tossed in for good measure but now, you have just ruined this game for one player who was getting closer to earning enough SP to get the skills towards using the right gear that would have allowed her to play in close range combat!!!

PUT THE DAMNED SNIPER RANGE NUMBERS BACK THE WAY THEY WERE OR THE ROLE OF A SNIPER IS GOING TO BE NOTHING BUT ONE CRUEL JOKE!!!!!!!

"I had balance because I could sit there and I could kill people and I did get killed and I am happy with it so, "Balance"
