I dont have much to say besides that, it sometimes takes me three or four shots to kill people cause they move :U im not a super advanced sniper but I play it because im very comfortable being a long range engagement system and most of the time I am playing either CQC or long range combat with the ocassional hack assist and troop transport, but usuall I am playing the role of intelligence and sneaking into range of a large group of enemies to alert my team mates what is at the next objective. As for other people, I feel as if they play sniper because they dont infact really have any skill and just play it cause they like to camp and do as alittle work as possible.
Now onto the overheating thing, As it is a feasable thing, you seem to not realize that the sniper rifles are semi automatic, and I think the last time a semi automatic rifle overheated was never, now this isnt COD or BF3 but the recoil in BF3 and COD (here come the trolls) makes sniping alot harder as it flips the scope sight up on purpose making it harder to refind your target thus making you have to manage alot more.
But most of the games I have played there are alot of skilled assault troops who up their range to maximum just to counter act snipers, so most of the matches I play, im always countering people rushing me with a sub or a pistol (yes I have used the default scrambler pistol to kill people, people hate me for it :U )
Now I find sniping to be hard as is already because people know me for sniping and that I usually go it alone and when people do find me I have two guys rushing me because one usually cant take me unless they are high up in skill level and that is rare. I do like that the sniper role has been made harder, but it is also how you make your skillsets and some people play insane amounts of hours just to get things or use mommys credit card to buy guns.
I do want to suggest that forcing you to have a designated spotter (ie someone with like sensing binocs that have to scan targets for you as compared to being able to sweep and see targets would make the sniper a harder class to be, like making the sniper class have very short range sensors and making it so someone else has to assist you, there fore also giving you protection and making teamwork happen instead of people just sitting around not really gaining any skill playing as a sniper class) |
