By and large I do agree with what Infinity has been preaching for no less than three months. Make snipers a skilled class. When the skill is there, make it a deadly class.

I'd like to see changes to snipers by having more variables affecting their aim:

1. Atmospheric variable - affects bullet flight path
Solution = atmospheric computation module, this is a low slot computer that analyzes the wind and temperature and gives a readout of its findings and aiming corrections in the HUD.

2. Range/bullet drop variable - Remove yardage markers on infantry / items and add bullet drop.
Solution: range finder/bullet drop module, low slot module that displays the yardage of an item in the HUD and gives the sniper a good indication of how to compensate for bullet drop. Currently, yardage is given for free, it should cost to be able to use it.

3. Mil dots in HUD scopes, remove orange dot when on target.
Solution: when both the atmospheric and range finder module are used together, the HUD computes the best mil dot / minute calculation for down range success. No easy mode orange light when on target, just a suggestion from the combo computers telling what the best mil dots to use. Kinda works like a snipers spotter.

4. Sway - when scoped, rifle should always have a little sway. This needs to be in rhythm with one's stamina/heartbeat, less stamina means more sway. As the person settles down, the sway subsides but still has a small sway.
Solution = being able to go prone and use a bipod.

You're the kind of person that needs to be driven away from the role, in that case. People who are doing it because it's an easy, safe way to kill ***** are the people we can afford to not want to play sniper any longer, once the new sniping mechanics are in.
