DUST Fiend wrote:Why is it again that snipers lose all sway when crouched? I mean, when does a sniper NOT crouch? 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.
Oh, and screw skirmish. I'm only ever playing skirmish with a full group on mics, people are far too stupid to play skirmish with pubbies >_<
I snipe with a militia smg about two inches from the back of the head of an enemy sniper. Out of range?? Sigh.........whats the range on the FREE LAV missile turret??

It's much more sensible to hide in the hills or camp on a roof with an AR or hide by an objective or spawn point with an HMG and just go for kills. Why would you '' play the game '' and go for letters etc. only to have one of these players kill you, or be run over by a free jeep, or spammed by a dropship in your expensive suit. Screw that. When the SP is a joke and you can't afford the ISK to '' play '' why the hell would you ?. Just another one of the many reasons why the gameplay in this beta sucks I'm afraid.
They want to snipe in the hills?? Cool as its very fun to track them down and either melee, pistol or militia smg at two inches away.
STARTER FITS cost how much?? ZERO ISK.
Takeing the letters is not for KDR but only for I won and you lost.

Did you actually just tell me to use a LAV missile turret against a sniper? Do you see what's wrong with what you just said?
Please do not! tell me you expect to sit in a LAV out in the OPEN?? LOL!
Park the LAV where just the tip of the turret is close to where the sniper is and kill them with splash damage.
Ping, triangle, wait, triangle, triangle, shoot and "sniper" dies.
The "snipers" hideing in the hills die. The good snipers never hide in the hills nor do they stay in one spot.
Or snipe them with a forge gun. Works for me.

Heavy suit. Or do not use vehicle and just forge gun versus sniper rifle.
Are you that sniper that I shoot with the forge gun?? Damn you are a very good sniper.

Takeing the letters is not for KDR but only for I won and you lost. Really, so you're taking letters at the same time as running into the hills to knife snipers are you ?. In your starter fit ? Hmm sure you are. Starter fit if you die taking a letter is ok because it costs nothing although you'll never take one in a starter fit because you're getting sniped from the hills. So use a starter fit which is free but useless and kinda proves what i just said that there's no point using an expensive suit to play in because you can't afford to, and the SP is pointless , so like I said why would you ..... '' play the game '' Please read and try to understand the original post before posting what you think are smart a$$ replys.
Wheres the fun in useing a proto everything to go versus another proto?? IMHO its much more fun to go basic everything and still kill folks with better gear even if the odds are stacked against.

Ya heavies take more finesse I think you might have got me with that forge last build but I don't remember dying to one this build yet, I could be wrong.
Hmm you may be right but then if I do get a chance before a wipe to skill my forge gun from L1 to L5 and also get heavy sharpshooter to L5 and heavy weapon sharpshooter proficiency to L5 then maybe??
But then the problem is on my part its going to be 99% luck and 1% skills to get some forge gun kills at long range but it never hurts to try??
And good game the other day since that was fun.

LOS or Line of Sight! Thats the number one reason that I hunt down snipers before going for the objective cap. I.e. they have A and B and we are going for the stealth vectors to try and recap A and B then going for C. But some kitten! sniper sees us and hey! then every orange dot knows what we are moving towards.
