What ruins skirmish for me is slow spawn times.

I barely notice snipers unless they are really good.(which is rare)

I don't think I have ever made a complaint thread, but the small amount of enjoyment I get out of this game is pretty much going away. I like to run around and **** face in skirmish dropping 50+, since ambush has become boring. Sadly everyone the last 3 days has realized they are bad and pull out sniperz after 2 min of the match, and I have yet to win a 1v1 with the redline.

Please encourage people to leave their spawns and not sit on a mountain with 5 other sniperz behind their redline. Maybe don't give players WP for kills made behind the redline or maybe make the sniperz take skill to use. I tried a standard sniper today to counter all the fgtz, and it was the easiest sniper I have ever used. I could only imagine how many kills I could get with an officer sniper with damage mods. (no scope movement, no bullet drop, and you don't have to lead people... dot turns red, hit r1... skillzzzzzzzz)

Fix your game CCP, rant over.

in my new video, I ran across a pack of them on top of a hill. They had a whole camp and bonfire going. Seems the snipers need to have people protecting them while they snipe now 0o

gayar snipacus ftw!

We aren't ruining skirmish. We are ruining you. And all the other sad sacks that think sniping is easy.

GTFO noob you think its hard at now your the worst FPS player here

i been playing from the start in june

i used all the gun and drops suits

I KNOW FULL WELL THAT ITS TOO EZ TO KILL NOW WITH SNIPERS THEN IT USE TO BE !!!

I used Snipers from the 1st all the way up to now and guest what im one of the best to !
if i can take a no skill Sniper and head shot 3 scouts running full till and zigzaging with just a 3 round mag in 6.3 sec ITS TOO EZ !!!

Think about it ! YOU think its hard its becus your New here in beta !
I been around the block !
I know your BSing US !
Now STOP ASKING CCP TO MAKING IT EZ WE ALL HAVE ANUFF OF THIS BS FROM YOUR PLAYER TYPE FROM THE PLAYERS WHO DONT TO THE SKILLED PLAYERS WHO DO USE SNIPERS !!!

You talking about the build where we could 1 shot proto heavies and with more sway?

I agree,make it the same as it was!

dam what build was it then that heavy where 2-3 shots

I never really die from them, they're just annoying as ****. Constantly getting hit by them as I run around gets old. Especially when there is no one to shoot because I am redlining the other team... CCP hates me or something

Can't exactly remember. I do remember when I started playing it was def 1 shot to the proto heavy(headshot). That's when you had the rep for sniping and every time I would try to get into a sniping match you would squish me with a dropship :)

Great times!!

this is just kinda sad tbh

im trying to teach my brother how to play eve ~

so i get him a basic assault fit with a burst rifle shield extenders and what not
all fairly basic fittings

and sure enough
5 deaths later

default sniper class
killing enemy's like there is no tomorrow

i keep a eye on his mini map since he is still new and spot enemy's that are trying to flank him but don't have the sense to not get spotted

he goes from 1 - 5
to 13 - 7 this is most likely his.... 4th match
standard ambush match

i mean
if he can snipe then LOLOLOL
but then again when i start taking sniper fire i stop

its amazing how putting rock in between you and a sniper stops 100% of all bullets aimed at you
he even got a corp invite after the match

ran a game with the corpies
had tons of fun

your having trouble with some one who aims in front of the targets and waits until they run into the cross hair to shoot

Maybe if matchmaking worked correctly, you'd actually be playing others of similar skill, ISK, and SP. Unfortunately, it doesn't, and instead decides to put one team with 3 full squads of good guys vs a team of random newberries fresh off the chopping block.

Thankfully I'm a fanboi or I would have already jumped ship for the time being.
