Snipers are a neccessary Evil !!! However you guys that jump into skirmishes and go to the top of the mountain and ROAST MARSHMELLOS all match long are not good. Even though you go 12-2 your team loses. When the match was over did u evaluate and learn from it like a real clone is supposed to?
Personally I HATE SNIPERS THAT DONT MOVE AROUND and when i get killed by one i go into the mountains if it takes me all game to kill him / her. Some ppl hunt tanks i hunt snipers camping snipers !!!! It doesnt always work, sometimes its a epic fail
, if they see me comming and have a shot its over ! this is the nature of DUST 514.
I respect the Heavy
, breathing hard, sweating, holding the gatling gun waiting for some unsuspecting merc who sees his ping above his head. " He's not moving he knows im shooting at him but wont come out, (im going in for a better shot). oooh noooooo he just came out of hiding, its a fatboy. I can outrun him but not his barage of bullets and man did he spray !!!! Well back to the clone depot for another expensive shiney suit..... man that HEAVY sure takes and gives a punch.''
Back to the topic..... Snipers!!! Dear SNIPER MERC, we (your team) cannot cap letters in skirmishes if we dont have cover fire from you. This is where the you (the sniper) comes in handy, just a scenario. You are on the mountain 1 full squad of 4 enter the letter. Scwooshs, Scwooshs, ( pluck .... pluck, the sniper just shot 2 red dots) we finished the other 3 red dots, now its clear. Lets take this objective!!!, Hurry b4 they respawn !!! Capped, cool, lets move on to the next red letter. Does this sound like a good scenario? Sounds like many ive had.
Heres the problem when we go to the next letter the SNIPER (YOU) stays put. You pull out your sleeping bag and CAMP the original objective. We move on and die from guess what ? SNIPER FIRE. If SNIPERS wanna get love from us GRITTY MERCS, who go in under any circumstances, even dealling with, THE BIG SLOW MONSTER and his / her death dealing choice of wepons, not to mention the tanks the lavs the dropship etc.... you SNIPERS should move with your sqaud.!!!!!
Find spots for every map and letter not just on spot ! "OOOOH.... let me shoot at the re-supply depot from this tower all match long. When the enemy comes to hack, ill get alot kills and LOOK GOOD but i really suck
" "Aww man my teamate at the base of this mountian just got shot by a SNIPER, I wonder where he is im gonna shoot his kitten
Read the death / whose dying list, as it scrolls. Looking down your sights makes you blind to all the info the interface is sending you. It will tell you hey my ppl are dying from SNIPER FIRE. You as a sniper should be mad your kind is killing YOUR TEAM !!!.
Think about this if there are 16 ppl 2 a squad if 9 of them stay in the mountains sniping we only have 7 ppl on the battlefeild running around trying to win against all odds. Let one of those guys on the ground pull out a tank and 3 mercs get in. Now its only 4 mercs taking the brunt of damage and losses. 1 full squad is really doing all the work against 16, and they still gotta look out for the red snipers..... SNIPERS SHOULD HUNT SNIPERS!! do u really want your slow moving heavy to climb the mountain chasing your merc type... he cant cap letters or MOW down the assault guys, if hes hunting snipers hence we loose the contract and maybe theses guys wont hire us anymore.
No work means no ISK, which means no more shiney toys to play with in these dropsuits......
...........END TRANSMISSION...... CLONE SENT 2 PLANET 2 PROTECT HIS CLAN AND ALLIANCE INTERESTS !!!! .......
