The Tac Sniper Rifle is advertised as a lower dam, higher RoF rifle, but the three shot mag makes the higher RoF kinda pointless...also it would be nice to have a crosshair for hip firing with this one. |

agree with the crosshair idea yes the sniper is a long range weapon , can I use it as an improvised shotgun in this game if I absolutely need to ? not in this game |

I totally agree I loved the tactical variants but the three round
Magazine made it hard for me kill a squirmy foe that moved around a lot or a group of enemies. Not to mention the lower damage didn't help when sometimes I'd shoot at a scout in a proto suit with Sheild extenders and not kill em. Although sending three shots down range at a heavy within 1.5 seconds and taking him down at 500+ meters was always fun.
So I ended up using the Genesis sniper rifle and Prefered that. The extra damage and bigger mag made them much more veristile and was much more effective at killing groups of enemies. Also the five shot magazine allowed me to do more follow up shots and kill more without having to reload and messing up my sway.
Havnt played in about two weeks or so. Ps3 broke so I'm not sure what the new changes brought |

Can we agree that Tactical SR variants are absolute POS? They were supposed to fill a niche where a sniper would be running around with a squad and shoot at mid range as opposed to long range but they completely fail at it - primarily because they have all the disadvantages compared to bigger SR and no bonuses. The higher RoF is pointless with 3 round mags. Has anyone leveled/maxed reloading skills? Does it introduce a significant difference into the equation? |

Reminds me of the way borderlands made their guns.
Power was 3 shot
Regular was 6 shot
Fast firing was just a regular clip of ammo bigger than 6
It really does need a bigger magazine, and maybe even slightly better ROF |
