I like them. I just wish the deadzones on the controllers were smaller and that my connection was better.
I'm trying out the Charge Sniper Rifle. I put it on an Amarr Assault with two Complex Light Damage Modifers and a Flaylock. I know I said I would stop, but I am now back to playing like a Musketeer.

They need to be more sp based. No more no skill, mil rifles littering up the field. If you don't want snipers to be such a problem. Just sayin'GǪ

You do realize he was asking for a buff not a nerf? Well, I suppose you don't because if you did you wouldn't have written what you did.

snipers, like dropships dont get high rewards for effort.
and yeah sniping well does take a bit of effort, spending matches just researching angles and distances for each map and socket set up isnt fun really, but if you want to snipe you need to know where you can LoS where has LoS on each camp (along with each sniper rifles range and risk vs reward re: pissing someone off with a thales is fine if the only way they can reach you is if they risk one of their own thales xD)

Haha NICE. I just wish the sway was gone when skilled into but to many people think that #FaZeing it out would make them op even though they would have to get solid head shots to be effective or land 3 shots without dying in CQC |

Thank you!
Honestly can't stand the QQ about how "hard" sniping is now, either get good or change roles...
I get my head blown off quite often... while sprinting well over 9m/s... at 350+ meters away...obviously sniping is fine.

I'm actually glad sniping takes a fair amount of skill to use effectively. It helped to get rid of some of those 3-5 useless snipers that use to be in every single team back in the beginning of Uprising.

Think about every roles not snipers only. If you reduce the amount of WP/kill to 25, how assault/heavy suits will make their WP? This is their MAIN (and only for the heavy)WP revenu.
Moreover, it'll increase the difference between logis and everything else even more. So nope.
And a revive is 90WP now, get decent needles

TBH i think they need to be returned to how they were before all the changes with the original sight and range. IK ppl said they were bad but I still got 30+ kills a game with them. Now they're more of a no-skill weapon that EVERYONE seems to use

ikr, how it originally was was fine for me, now it's so small that my TV can't tell the difference between the dot and a rock.
IMO snipers need to be returned to how they originally were. Yes there was aproblem with the redline but changing the snipers to deal with that wasn't the best idea for dealing with it.

It was never a problem with the redline, rather it was a problem of terrain clipping at a distance. You could shoot out from places, but nobody could shoot back IN. That is why the distances were reduced.
Until they find a way to fix terrain edges sticking up further than they are visible, but only for distanced hit detection.... they will probably have to keep the range short.
It seems like they are using a simplified terrain version that defaults to a low-resolution map to determine distant shots, but uses the hi-res info from the console to determine closer combat.
In all seriousness, if they actually fixed this, the redline would be the LAST place you'd want to shoot from. because everyone would be looking there First for someone to clip.

It's pointless to run sniper with it's range - you're so close that your enemy will spot you and come for you, and if anyone wants someone else bad enough it's hard to stop em - especially in a sniper suit.

I always said they needed a Sharpshooter dropsuit in the same vein as the Logistics or the Commando. Something that specializes in a particular role that can come in handy in different spots (whether it's a sniper or a mid-range marksman). Tell me, is good enough right now to the point an idea like this would be useless?

That's because of map and a horrible game mode.
Once a proper game mode has been established for PC and the maps get some re-work done, professional snipers will be needed.
Nothing like having a sniper behind enemy lines giving out enemy position info and taking shots when needed.

Sniping doen't suck and can be accomplished decently but still needs some tweaks to make it worth the investment. Sniper gameplay suffers from needing high kills to be competitive. I have listed some minor suggestions here that could really help push sniping to be pc viable once again.
When I look down my scope, all I see are dead people.
