So to recap, the reasons I have seen ppl calling for a nerf are..
1. Quick scoping, even though all admit its very hard to do.
2. Headshots do more damage.
3. They can one hit kill.
4. Ppl can achieve a good k/d ratio.
None of those reasons seem valid to me. |

Rock paper scissors. I suggest you stop trying to view all classes as if they should be the same. I mean thats how snipers are supposed to work, you dont see it coming. |

I wasn't having a moan and saying nerf was just saying I get more frustrated out of being killed once by a sniper than multiple times by some one who's in my face.
I think snipers are fine I just don't like them but I suppose they keep you on your toes |

Instead of blatantly screaming nerf at the top of my lungs I'll be rational.
First off, they don't need a special increase to headshot damage. I think all guns should have it or none at all .
A suggestion i have being a user of the charge sniper rifle is that they should all have a charge time (tactical rifle being the shortest) since it is a railgun and like the other railguns it should have a flash of electricity visible only while it's charged or charging.
Any thoughts?
I'm going to reiterate this question which got buried in the thread as a response to the OP. Because I feel some aspects of it have not been directly and/or deeply (i.e. with specific details of gear, skills, et al) addressed.
Quote:Do you think your experiences are indicative of the average players experience with a sniper rifle? If yes then upon what are you basing that assessment? If no then, well then I wouldn't see a reason to have posted the OP.
Also what gear were you using for this, and (perhaps more importantly) how many skillpioints do you have investing into Sniping (remember to include all skills offensive, defensive, or fitting, from which you gained any benefit while doing what you described). How long/how often have you played beta? How long/how often have you played FPS games in general?
When you played were you part of an organized team or squad? Did you have active mics during at this time?
Are these experiences consistent for your play with a sniper rifle, if yes over what span of time/number of games did you test this?
Context matters, please provide it :)
Cheers,
Cross
It is worth noting that you did indeed respond with some of the details but the crux question still seem to be unanswered.
Do you think your experiences are indicative of the average players experience with a sniper rifle? If yes then upon what are you basing that assessment?
I believe that's the question that needs to be addressed first and foremost as it's answers color the weight and meaning of every other aspect of the issue.
Cheers,
