I'm making observations Sherlock, chill out.
You asked for it.

Why is it cool for them to sit way up in the mountains, out of range of anything aside from other snipers, and not be penalized in any way for it? This never really used to bother me but it seems like every game I get into there are just more and more snipers, and it's frankly pretty damn annoying. I think a lot of this is simply because of the fact that you lose all sway when crouched. If you still had at least a little bit to deal with, no big deal, at least then I know you aren't just pointing and clicking, you're actually engaging with the game in some way.
Let me translate this from your language, wahwahnese: Waaaaahhhh, why snipers get rocksteady aim!!!??? Waaaahh I ignore the reality of crouching snipers!!!! Waaaahhhhh, snipers fight in the map edges, NO FAIRR!!!! Waaaahh, I refuse to adapt when snipers are the primary norm!!!! Waaaaahhhh, I refuse to acknowledge camping as a tactical choice, that can easily be countered with proper hunting skills (and a fast character or vehicle) Waaaaahhh, I want my enemy snipers to have a hard time hitting me, WAAAAAHHHH!!!
I have no need to find a a quote of you stating snipers are OP, it is already implicit in your expressions, pointing out their so called "easy" things they have (rocksteady aim, fighting from the mountain edges, etc.), under the rubrick that they have it "too easy" compared to the other classes. You evidently are ignorant of the drawbacks that snipers have to put up with, weak armor, 0 strafing capability (their one defensive asset in close quarters), avoidance of direct confrontation (ever heard of skirmishers moron?), and of course, limited ammo in some cases (when no nanos are at our disposal).
No direct quote needed, only have to read between the lines that you can't put up a fight against the sniper.

This be true though. That's what corps are for. |
