the counter to snipers is other snipers(counter sniping), stealth, or the laser rifle. point one on them for about a half second and they're dead.
seriously, laser rifles have half the range, much better power, longer clips, and none of that "I'm so ****ing wasted right now, dude" sway that snipers have to deal with. There's a reason you never see snipers closer than 150 meters. |

There's a reason you never snipers closer than 150 meters. If the laser has half the distance of a sniper rifle, how exactly is it helpful? Snipers will just stay out of the range and pick people off that way. Stealth is almost as useless as it enforces my first problem, it scatters people so much that it's not much of a massive battle anymore. All it is is pockets of 2-3 people on massive maps.
how's about you pick up a sniper rifle and try to fight from inside a laser rifle's distance(pretty much any two points with a line of sight on any ambush map which seems to be what you're whining about). You'll spend more time dead or finding a place to hide than helping your team. and in skirmish, if you're close enough for the enemy to kill you head on(without sending one guy to come around you and kill you) or so unaware as to be killed by another sniper who needed more than one shot, you're doing it wrong and should just pick up a mass driver or shotgun. it's much more suited to your skill level then(none, barring nailing those long distance perfect hit chest shots on mass drivers) |

*sigh* maybe we should remove railguns as well, and LR's and everything that doesn't involve CQC while we're at it, that's really the kinda game we want, a ****** CQ cod clone. The fact is simple, their are quite a lot of bits of modern tech that are more than capable of making kills over a kilometer away, far out of decent view unless you have a magnification device, imagine what happens if you then go ten's of thousands of years into the future.
we have ships in eve capable of glassing/ simply destroying entire planets. only reason they don't is because they don't want to have to rebuild the facilities we're fighting over. |

so, what have we learned so far?
-CoD kid wants every game to be CoD.
-DUST players realize that CoD is the cancer that is killing good games
-Kid thinks that if he whines hard enough, DUST will become CoD.
-Kid is wrong. |

I don't think I've ever encountered a rail tank in a match.
omfg... i'll wait for when you do they are getting more common. Why? are they as cheap as regular tanks?
1. Tanks are expensive as ****
2. rail tanks pop like water balloons filled with nitroglycerin if you look at them funny
3. Sorry you can't kill tanks with your AR.
4. Actually, no I'm not. |

-Kid is wrong. Please point out where I said I want Dust to be like COD.
you used it as an example. you want to remove something from the game to turn every single fight into a CQC spray-n-pray heaven for idiots who don't know the first ****ing thing about tactics, like gathering intel and removing prime targets from the field/softening up positions for a rush/picking off enemies who are rushing a position.
basically, you don't outright state it, but you never suggested a change that wouldn't turn this into CoD. |
