Been playing sniper for months and every few weeks I see the same stupid remarks, qq and dumb nerf threads....
There are only a few little things wrong with snipers... and probably none of those will have any direct effect on you, the non snipers, or at least not in the way you qq-ers hoped for.
What SHOULD be changed:
- the total number of snipers/game. 1 sniper/2squads is more then enough. this will get you 4 snipers/game max. (6 once we go to 48 dots)
- Tagging red dots. Yes I could look at them and make them appear as red dots on those mini radars etc... but it's not the same as tagging someone.
- the fact that at times I die (commit suicide) when "walking" on un-even terrain... this gets me every time.
Messa walking in the mountains jumping at most 30 cm's high and WHAM 'you commited suicide' because CCP still hasn't - improved the terrain detection/collision problems that have been around since ages. (most of you wouldn't even know this problem since apparently none of you ever goes into the mountains, even though MOST of the snipers are always there, up for the grabbing...)
- I want my long range scanner back, and working. AR's run in groups, a heavy 'should' have a logibro scotched to his kitten and i HAD my long range scanner to help my spot red dots in my vicinity... Messa want's it back.
Now what SHOULDN'T be changed (and why as to prevent useless comments asking me to explain the obvious..)
- The fact that I can get to places where you can't... it's the purpose of the scout suit, CCP meant it that way.
- The fact that snipers can sit on the border of the redline... it is meant that way. They sit on the most outer limit of their playing field defined by CCP, deal with it.
- I heard people complaining that snipers can kill a heavy from the other side of the map... Seriously... If I manage to tripple tap some fat bastard from the other side of the map I deserved that kill, the noob should have moved his fat kitten after the 1st shot. (or seriously scold his logibro for getting killed that easy, we all know "logi 1st, fat bastard next")
- Bullit drop, why because it is simply utterly BS to add it in the game. The snipers that really choose the role because they like it will simply adapt and will still kill you. Yes it might make some of the noobs choose an other role, but I don't think it will have such an impact that it will be noticable in the game. (I wouldn't mind, I just think it is BS. I think I might actually welcome it).
Now a point that seriously needs addressing so the qq-ing will end since it is an utter MYTH.
Grab a sniper riffle... position yourself 10 meters from a wall and tripple tap the wall, don't move, let the reload animation finish and shoot without moving. Now if my ps3 isn't broken, and the game isn't bugging and neither is yours you'll notice 1 thing... you DIDN'T SHOOT AT THE SAME SPOT. Your scope has swayed at least 10/15 cm's in whatever direction 'random' was. Now imagine this over at least a few 100 meters... see where I'm going with this. There is no such thing as 0 sway when reloading. And when 'scoping' I'd better have the least sway possible I used my freaking SP to counter it. Asking for more sway is like me asking for more recoil an an AR.
