I'm just gonna go ahead and say that this kind of stuff is what's going to destroy this game. Increase the skills reaquired to snipe, add sway to crouching, increase the recoil after a shot, etc... No, that's a bad idea. What CCP needs to do is fix this crap with snipers being behind cover where you can't shoot them but they can shoot you. That's it, nothing more. They fix that and then we see where we are. What in the holy hell is going on around here? All I see is "nerf this, nerf that" and almost no threads about "Hey, this needs a boost". Holy crap, the only threads about something needing a boost is because everybody cried like a little girl and got it nerfed and now whatever it is sucks.

Here's what happens when I play DUST. I log in, get in to a battle and then I try to kill you. I try to kill you over and over over. I will try to kill you until you throw the controller through the TV and call the cat a bitchass *****. Just because I succeed does not mean something needs a nerf. Damnit...there has really been some OP stuff but has anybody stopped to think and realize that CCP has nerfed almost every single thing in this game. Eventually we're going to be running around trying to kill each other with nothing but harsh language.

Right now there is one single problem with snipers, and that is the glitchy cover BS. I can't even snipe them with a perfect shot lined up, or they're actually behind the cover and I have no shot at all and yet they kill me. Get that fixed and then come back and talk to me about snipers needing a nerf. We're only playing on what, 3 maps right now? Don't you think there's going to be some that are great for sniping and some that are total crap? We're gonna get this game nerfed in to Cow Clicker if we don't watch out.

You dying is not a game issue, it's just you. Because I'm trying to kill you. TO KILL YOU. And yet you get mad when you die? Guess what, I die constantly. I don't have some insane KDR. Some matches I go 3/7. This is a game, which means someone has to win by someone else losing. There are some valid points in this thread, but I'm getting tired ot all this nerf crap and this thread gets my rant, deal with it.

TL:DR - Read it or STFU.

Do you honestly believe that fixing a bug and making sniping easier will fix the problem. Yes fixing the bugged cover needs to be done, but returning the kick, adding bullet drop, and returning the sway in between shots also need to happen. Snipers right now just feels too much like an easy point and click weapon. They should require individual player skill to use more effectively such as any other specialized weapon. Yes, agree with you that things are getting nerfed to hard, I still believe that sniper proficiency should increase to 5% more damage with each level, but your shots shouldn't line themselves back up after every shot.
