I am not a sniper.
So I'd like to hear from real snipers about some of the ideas I want to toss around.
I loaded my State Apex Calmando today and forgot to switch the sniper for a rail rifle. I was a bit intrigued so I decided to just run with it. I didn't sit back and camp though, I was running around with the assaults trying to quickly snipe people at around 100M or less.
It was pretty fun, and I probably broke even in KD.
Based on my day of assault-sniping, a few changes came to mind about how sniper game play could be improved, and I'd like to see what actual snipers think.
1.) Buff the rifles. The basic sniper rifle felt under powered. I eventually switched to the ADV tactical version, and although it was better, still didn't feel like it packed enough punch.
2.) (The trade off) Make certain aspects of sniping more skill based and team oriented, such as:
- Remove radar while looking down scope. Communication and awareness are then more important, making snipers require more skill and teamwork with their more powerful rifles.
- When shot at while looking down scope, un-zoom the sniper. Meaning players would be able to force you into cover easier. Timing your shot would be more important.
All in all, I think this would make sniping a more dynamic, team oriented experience. But hey, what do I know? I hate snipers.

They pull that stuff off, then I can see myself returning to my sniper scout ways.
Nah ur just bad

You're definitely CPM material.
Lol.
And based off your productive feedback you're definitely Dust forum poster material.
Guess we're all good here
