Reduce the range of sniper rifles significantly. This is my argument

Besides changing locations is better, instead of picking a spot no one will ever find you. Scanning range has been nerfed now, so its now even more difficult to find snipers even if you are close to snipers
Sitting in one spot the entire match is no different from AFK, after all the action changes

Look, I think sniping is a low risk, high reward activity as much as the next forum warrior, but this is insane

I agree if were pushing redberries to the redline we shouldnt bitchh about them sniping from it. What do you expect them to do? No to your petition.

Geez, anyone would think a Sniper's a long range weapon... 
Whack out your own sniper, scan the redline, voila, your problem is solved.

But you know thats not really true, your point is as extreme as mine haha. A proto assault and an ishukone sniper was not pushed into the redline haha. Some players just stay there from start to finish.

Heavy too strong whack out a heavy
Logi and heavy combo too strong whack out your own heavy and logi combo...what wait you can't do that . At least a scout with a remote or any suit with a plasma cannon can counter that. At least there are more than one options.
Right now with redline snipers: just one option

If you're not prepared to do what's necessary to counter it in-game, quit your bitching about it. You're trying to nerf a sniper rifle into a bolt pistol. I'll say the same to you as I do to anyone crying for a nerf, man up about it. I don't even cry about proto stomps, and I'm a STD fit player.

not required.. when minor and normal damage orbitals come in snipers wont be able to stay still for long. this will be adequate to adding fear and a counter to snipers. when that comes in then we can look at other things

Or just weapons lock in the redline as it is not a CONCORD sanctioned battlefield.

Then redline stomps would be easier.

I say give the Snipers their range back but reduce the damage a TON but buff the headshot modifier to like 5000%. Let them learn to aim.

Sorry but the idea of an elite club is bad. You'll get incidents like the ADS thinking that way.

If they do that then what will happen if you get redlined? Wouldn't be able to fire at them unless you step out and before you even reach the outside of it you will die.
So you may want to think that idea over.

I really dont mind if snipers get their high damage and range back, or even a general buff. Just reduce the size of the redline. Adding more buildings and cover inside the redline instead, I think that makes more sense

See, this is what you should of said! Less straight lines for massive sniper coverage. The way you put it, was as I put it before, like a bolt pistol. Silly Timtron!
