The solution isn't play tactics or new equipment. Sniper rifles are too strong right now. Especially with KB+M. It is a joke how easily I can get kills with a militia sniper rifle and essentially no sniper skills, because all it takes is one headshot or two body shots and you're down. That isn't fun for anyone. I don't want to see the game diminished so much by something like sniping.
So easy hey? Go do it and report back with your results mr pro.
I'm willing to bet money you won't because you won't go positive for a while. I say get rid of assaults! Screw those headless chickens!
Lol how stupid did that sound! Pretty stupid hey?
Let's also get rid of tanks,lavs and dropships. Screw me are those heavies overpowered too. Wouldn't mind if they just removed heavies.
**** forge guns too!
Damn how much I love baby tears.
FYI sniper rifle utilizes railgun technology. It says it right there in the description.
You would need to skill up in reading though.
Only people you are one shotting till you get damage mods and at least to advance gear, are going to be other snipers. |

I've lined up so many shots perfectly and they still miss most of the time. But I still have some learning to do. Not sure how the mechanics work just yet. Yeah, sniping is harder than people give credit for...if you look up this thread people are arguing in both directions about sniping.. I see several "sniping is so EZ an lame, I got so many killz" kinds of posts, then others say "snipers don't contribute anything" which would mean that snipers don't get many kills... you guys can duke it out with each other on whose derisiveness wins. What I'm looking at is when/if hit detection is ever fixed.. you can be assured that the number of people dying by sniper shot will increase. Because a server-flunked hit has a lot more impact on snipers than any other class in the game. They fire in high powered singles. Half the people who are ranting about poor accuracy with their guns are also ranting against snipers now... Its like two self-opposing arguments in one topic. Without damage mods i got ohks like nothing
Yes against other snipers you will. I think that has been said in this thread before.
How many heavies and assaults have you put down with the militia sniper rifle in 1 shot?
I won't hold my breath. |

Sniping is very easy with a keyboard and mouse. When I had to use the DS3 it was harder and sniping wasn't such a big deal, but with the precision of a mouse it's a cake walk.

That isn't fun for anyone. I don't want to see the game diminished so much by something like sniping. Actually that is BS, I am a very good sniper (24-0 kdr on average plus hacks last build) and what you said is either not true or this game is just completely lagging for me because I have put a militia sniper bullet right through a crouching scouts head and they have survived time and time again with 1% health which allowed them to run away Then you missed their head or, yes, the game lagged. Headshots with the militia sniper rifle are fatal to even people in the militia assault dropsuits with full health. Hell, I've been one-hit-killed by militia sniper rifles in an assault suit with full health, a few in Mechanic, and two militia shield extenders. Once someone stacks enough Weaponry, Sniper Rifle Ops/Proficiency, and weapon mods they will be one-hit-killing a hell of a lot of people.
Nice 3 or 4. You will be in the top 100 leader boards. Ccp you have this persons proof. I will agree then. Let's get rid of snipers.
Is it the snipers fault that you don't want to wear a shield extender or even a amour plate to counter any militia sniper rifle taking you out in one shot?
Its too late for you anyway now. Have my advanced rifle now and by tomorrow night the prototype rifle. It is one-hit-kill-heaven!
Also Flux is not lying or experiencing lag in those situations. He has shot me with my shield extender on which is a true story.
Edit: You were an assault with 2 shield extenders? I use the dragonfly with 1x standard extender and now with the amour plates have not been OHK all night. Even what I assume are the head shots which leave my screen flashing red with an annoying heartbeat for the rest of the game. I'm still 80 odd health away from an militia assault with extenders. |

It is annoying at first to have to charge up your shot, and if this build is like last build it's won't quite be as accurate as the ishukeone, but if you can't one shot someone with that you won't be able to one shot people with a proto unless it's an officer rifle.
With the draw distance of the last builds I had way better getting those cross map chevron shots with the Ishukeone and think I just fell in love when I stacked the 3 proto damage mods. Need to use the charge this build to see if it is more accurate.
I'm using the NT511 genesis I think it is called. Got the highest damage of the rifles but doesn't seem to do jack to vehicles. I could take out a tower drop ship with 10-15 shots with the Ishukeone end game level. Hope it is still going to do damage to the vehicles in this build.

Thanks for that answer. Explains a lot. Need to start skilling into swarm launcher before all the towers start getting filled up with drop ships. |

The only reason people are noticing snipers more now is because the new map most of us play is very sniper friendly. Do you have the same problem on Biomass? Of course not. It's the map. The reason I'm saying snipers need to be toned down is because I am the one doing the sniping. It is painfully easy to get kills using a militia rifle with a mouse to aim with. Once hit detection gets fixed it will only get worse. Sniping is safe, easy, and very lethal with a mouse and even a militia sniper rifle. That needs to change.

Yes, shockingly, this is what it means to be patronizing. Do you imagine you are so far beyond us that you need to tell us to dodge and to fire our gun back at enemies? Do you really think we've never played a FPS game before? Get over yourself, Vassili.
So you go 4 for 1 with a militia sniper rifle and mouse with keyboard and its overpowered. You are no were anywhere in the top 100 which starts at 2.something kd and then you and your mouse are overpowered?
Do you know what it means to be stubborn? Majority of the people here except me have tried to help you with advice and all you do is more complaining.
Oh no your ******* RAILGUN sniper rifle killed me! Do you see those tanks that one shot everyone? The ones that 1 shot everyone including heavies are using a RAILGUN round. Why can't I 1 shot heavies is what the question of this thread should be.
Get CCP to change the description to sniper rifle was created using charlie chocolate factory technology and fires a round of jelly tots and then I'm going to agree with your opinion! |
