I can name three good snipers off the top of my head that I wouldn't be too happy about facing (fortunately one of them is in my corp).
Daddrobit always shows impressive scores any time he's in a match with me and rapidly eliminates whatever I can't get to, doesn't need to redline to do it.
Sleepy Zan is able to move with his team and still provide very competent sniping, I've seen him take targets at the same distance I fight at [close] and plenty far as well.
Gem Cutter snipes people out of dropships like its no ones business with a nasty rifle, this is not easy to do [at all!]
I'm sure there's more out there but those are the names I'll recognize, and none of them require hiding in a redline to do what they do. |

I have nothing against snipers and propose no changes to them currently, I'll just say this:
At least in skirmish, if the majority of any given team is sniping, they really aren't capturing objectives and it leads to an easy demise/redline match more often than not. That being said, maybe it would be neat if during the respawn screen (selecting loadout) it showed you how many people on your team are Assault, Scout, Logi, Heavy.
That way perhaps people might notice (that they may not otherwise) a lack of a certain role, and realize they could balance it a bit more by switching to a different kit.
I mean if nothing else it'd be a helpful tip/tool and I'm sure at least some people would acknowledge and benefit from it. |

Yeah, I agree that some will ignore it, but I suspect others won't. In the very least it can't hurt to have a little ticker/counter there to display it by kit.
