Sights: The sniper rifle zoom has to have either a second zoom in or increase the original zoom as at the moment it is far too close and does not feel like you are using a sniper. More of a assault rifle with a smaller magazine than a sniper.
Hit detection: It seems like the bullet goes in a straight line yet shooting someones head while they are completely stationary sometimes does not hit them. If i put that sight on someones head and they are not moving then it should hit the persons head 100%
Enemy Placement: This is BIG for me. I am in a scout dropsuit so i should in effect be able to see an orange arrow above the enemy players. Someone with an Assault/Heavy/Logistics dropsuit should NOT!! That completely ruins the point in being a sniper and results in anyone being able to see you across the other side of the map.
NOTE: Only if the orange "IM OVER HERE" arrows stay in the game.
Prone: This has to be in the game, be it for wielders of a sniper rifle only or for all.
The whole point in being a scout/sniper is to be able to deal a large amount of damage over a large distance, calling out positions and what not and also not being seen.
With the way snipers are just now, the zoom offers too little zoom to kill at a large distance, the orange "IM HERE" arrows gives you no reason to give out any positions as everyone already sees them and not being able to go prone hinders the ability to not being seen.

I'd love for some of the rifles to have an extra zoom even if i had to put a module or equip in for it.
Prone would just make it harder to clear out snipers, This character is a sniper, and though there are times when i wish i could go prone...just to see under that damn handrail... having snipers go prone would make it even harder to see other snipers, many of whom don't show up with red markers over their head at certain times....
Sniping DUST at this point seems to have large chunks of time dedicated to watching your ass.. which is as it should be i think.
all this...IMHO
Thanks for the Dropsuit Command tip, that will help a lot.
Prone is good for 2 things, it makes it easier to stay hidden and also steadies your gun and recoil more than crouching.
The red markers over your head should be a scout dropsuit exclusive imho as it would help the scout class. At the moment it feels like i have easy mode activated being able to see where people are.
Speaking of clearing out snipers, you would never need to do this if you had an efficient sniper. When i am covering a large amount of enemies, if you are not moving your heads gone. I'm constantly telling team-mates how many enemies are nearby and also if reinforcements are incoming whilst picking off any snipers that are firing on my team.

No delete button for threads? Always get some BS opinion from someone who couldnt care less about specific roles etc.
Whats the point in calling anything scout if you cannot even scout out enemies. Waste of time trying to talk to people. |
