So, i've been reading a few threads about snipers being useless, snipers not being useless. Now i'm making a thread to hopefully find a way both parties can be happy. For one try and encourage the sniper to be more active around the battlefield, sure letting your squad where enemy positions are is great. But you, no, we can be much greater. Lately i've start being more active by doing my usual "enemy here" or "enemy coming this way etc" But i've also start capturing points that are unattended. Or scoping a point and taking all enemies that are within that point. I'd then go and take the point and place an explosive so that i can keep that point secure for longer that usual. I'd also keep an eye on my squad to stop and flanking by punching a hole in the enemies assault by say taking out their heavy. All we have to do is get more of us snipers to be helping on the field. Instead of (lately of not) abusing glitches such as not being hit in x spot. Camping is ok in some cases, but when you're out in a hidden area with a perfect view. Don't steal your teamates kills instead help them by letting them know there is a weak guy "behind that cover" and taking unattended points and defending a certain amount. If more of us can do this and encourage others to do so, maybe we won't get so much hate. But we may end up with people realising that having a sniper ensures that they can have a good defense/offense.
So to all snipers who camp all day without helping i write this now, why not get up and start being more active. We aren't about K/D we're about making sure we can take out those who are causing trouble. Or capturing those major spawns and those vital points.

rofl, well true sometimes when you are racing to all the objectives and ...there hardly noone around, though had a match yesterday where it was ghosttown, except for dropships flying around, noone was on the ground
All Snipers & Dropship pilots, i was like |

Well that's what i'm trying to change. I'm trying to create a place where snipers are not hated and are liked instead because they're actually doing something rather than camping. People will still hate snipers for the way they don't join in the battle. But that could and hopefully will be the only reason why snipers are hated. Every class is hated by someone for something. |
