The new influx of players, for three days was a shining beacon of awesome visceral combat.
Swarms of LAVs and eager button mashers in militia assault suits bunny hopping about spamming grenades and bringing it without fear of harming their 'precious' K/D ratio. Then they realised that dying sucks.
They soon realised they can get the same amount of kills (1 or 2) with 90% less deaths.
Now they all sit at the back of the map taking useless potshots.
I'm having Codex flashbacks.
I'm looking forward to the mass realisation that heavies have "MOAR HUTPUNTS" and therefore must be awesome.
Soon, heavies, endless swarms of heavies everywhere. |

They don't hide very well, though, and because they don't have signal dampening trained up, they aren't too hard to spot.
When they become a problem, I just hit a supply depot, pop on my Sniper drop suit, and convert the redberries to a happy pink mist.
It makes me smile. |

Its no the enemy thats the problem.
Its when half your side or more skill 'fail sniper' and sag about at the back of the map.
I miss planetside, at least there you can shoot cowards in the head. |

If you see me sniping it's basically commentary on how i feel about my team. I prefer the CQC, but if it's pointless it is what it is. When I turn around and three turrets are firing at the enemy MCC it's time to snipe. |

Then u contribute to the problem. I've seen many games turn around once they take all 3 objectives. You best chance at winning via clone deaths is NOT while in the redzone. |

Rule of sniping: You don't have to be good to get kills and be annoying, there just has to be enough of you.  |

As a heavy combat / field control sniper I approve of this message. More snipers, preferably in fast suits. |

Pretty sure that rule applies to everything in New Eden. |

I get a good laugh from snipers playing in ambush OMS. They really can't go too far out, so you'll find most of them just sitting on the ground, in the open, in well-traveled areas. Not to mention they love squatting down not far from me in hopes they can OHK me in my type-2 suit and Gek. But I just love insta-dropping them, even if they get one shot in, so what, by the time they can shoot off another they are dead.
Standing still is about the worst thing you can do in this game, regardless of what class you go up against, and these newberry snipers in ambush take the cake in that regard. They are sitting ducks most of the time. |

hey man- after i lose a lot suits because no one works together, and two heavies are making out up in the MCC, wtf am I going to do? Not to mention once I start sniping the enemy sniper game is over. so I still have fun :D
Keep in mind, this is typically after I get put in a match that's half over on the losing team as well 
You can go an be canon fodder tho. the blueberries don't mind at all! |
