LOGAN XIII Proditus est 31	Posted - 2014.09.27 19:42:00 - [1] - Quote Tried to see if I was being to harsh. Buy, nope. You have officially fukt this game up. What is the point of even having sniper rifles now? Their ranges are BARELY better than assault rifles. THE WHOLE PORPUSE OF A SNIPER RIFLE IS TO BE ABLE TO SHOOT THE ENEMY FROM LONG RANGE. You might as well take them out of the game all together now. You can do the same thing with a full charge on a scrambler rifle, no point having sniper rifles. All you have done CCP is turn this into a future version of C.O.D. where the only viable "tactic" now is to run around like homicidal hamsters on crack. You have totally eliminated the original thinking game you had. Now this game is designed, targeted for the energy drink od'd teen.

hfderrtgvcd 566	Posted - 2014.09.27 19:56:00 - [3] - Quote A sniper rfile's optimal range is 400 meters. An assault rifles optimal is like 45 meters. Also, sniper rifles got a huge damage buff. A headshot can do more than 1500 damage with a charge sniper rifle. You can't fight in here! This is the war room.

Joel II X Molon Labe. General Tso's Alliance 3662	Posted - 2014.09.27 20:06:00 - [6] - Quote Rail Rifle has like a 70m range. The lowest a sniper goes is 350m, with the most being 450m. Get good.
LOGAN XIII Proditus est 31	Posted - 2014.09.27 20:08:00 - [7] - Quote No. But, I am used to getting kills of 450-500+ m. Longest kill I had was 613m with a Thale. Now, I have to position myself half way across map just to counter those candy added redline commando snipers. Which puts me in a position no real sniper would do. To be potentially surrounded by enemies.

According to you, because CCP nerfed the snipers range = the only viable "tactic" in dust is gone. Come out of the redline and call info to team mates, shoot, shoot, move. Countersnipe. What they did is tried to make snipers relevant.
Breakin Stuff Goonfeet Special Planetary Emergency Response Group 3255	Posted - 2014.09.27 20:28:00 - [12] - Quote Silly red dots, calmandos are for countersniping! Scouts are better static snipers. Much harder to hit.

A sniper IS NOT SUPPOSED TO BE IN THE MIDDLE OF COMBAT. That is the stupid videogame logic of quick-scoping. Which no real sniper does. A snipers best assets are range and camouflage. And since CCP has no clue what camouflage is, the only thing a sniper has is range. Which CCP has now hampered.

LOGAN XIII Proditus est 32	Posted - 2014.09.27 21:16:00 - [25] - Quote Prime example. Just had a match on the 3 point map playing skirmish. The OpFor had snipers on the hill under their MCC. Now, before hot"fix" Delta. All I had to do was shift to a spot behind Alpha and I could take them out. NOW, I had to make it all the way to the tower behind Charlie to even get them in range. Which puts me in a dangerous and tenuous position. That can quickly lead to me getting surrounded and overwhelmed by enemy players from Charlie. Which no real sniper would do.

Which CCP has now hampered. what good reason do you have for needing to be more than 400m from an objective? being useless before and after this patch means no one really gave two fucKs where you sniped from as long as you stop playing so we can get someone else in the battle to actual do something useful.

Fizzer XCIV Company of Marcher Lords Amarr Empire 351	Posted - 2014.09.27 22:25:00 - [35] - Quote You're just going to have to adapt man. Try to find good sniping spots among the battlefield, rather than in the hills around the battlefield. These better spots will get you more kill opportunities. Risk vs Reward. And yeah, sniping is going to become more of an active role now, you will have to take your eyes off the scope from time to time in order to check your near surroundings, make sure you don't have some scout planting REs under your cheeks. Alternatively, you could invest in passive scanning to give you a warning when someone is nearby, but that would require sacrifices in your tank and gank. Its up to you.

Vapor Forseti Nyain Chan General Tso's Alliance 1577	Posted - 2014.09.27 22:39:00 - [37] - Quote If you were anything like a good sniper, you would've shout up and adapted by now instead of whining about useless things on the forums. Vapor Forseti wrote: Don't even compare Dust to reality. It doesn't work that way. If you want that ***, then "go back to CoD." Now, using a sniper rifle will require you to make risk and enter deeper into the battlefield to actually contribute to your team. The headshot damage multiplier is now 300%, so you should be grateful. You don't even realize how generous this buff is. Lastly, it's 400m, not 300m. Get out. Damn, people like you are annoying.

You can only adapt so many times before you you forget who you are. I do agree the rang nerf was a BAD move with the hp increase. Hardly ever sniped. You will see a lot less thale kills.
