I know there is a youtube video where someone went around 80/0 with a sniper on Manus Peak when it was actually, you know, a peak.

EDIT: Never mind, was already mentioned. It was 64/0

To be fair, Manus Peak was an OP map for Snipers.

When targets used to cap out at about 300 hp. Now they go around 800 or so for assaults.... and about 2000 for a heavy.
If you brought that map back... and restored sniper range... then handed that guy a game controller again....this guy would not have been able to get more than 20 on the current mechanics.

I get headshots abound still, even with our range nerfed to hell, even with the current armor ratio. Pack some damage mods on there.

If you are talking about the video, Idk who is in it. But If you hand Gem a controller again, buff the Snipers back to their original vestige, and bring that map back. I bet you Gem would rek the **** out of that map. This is a guy who CCP had to to put up walls around the points because of. He may not be as good now, or hell he may still be the best sniper, playing games with one in hand. But all I know, is you can not make that bold assumption based on preconceived notions.

But all I know, is you can not make that bold assumption based on preconceived notions. I think you should watch the video again. Any time the target took more than 1 shot to kill, he tended to miss the 2nd shot. With the current mechanics... that's enough time to get to cover. considering it would take 3-4 shots for an assault.... Your estimate is looking a bit.... overly hopeful. (also I noticed it was a KB/M in use from the noise it makes) http://youtu.be/dtXupQg77SU Dust to Dust Remember the dream you had before the day you were born.
