Oh shut up. All you're doing is QQing. Stop being a crying little ***** and HTFU. There's bigger problems.

Indeed.

Are you f-¦cking kidding me?

Last match our entire team was dominated by 2 able snipers.

Dont give me that sh!t, proto gear is supposed to withstand proto guns, wanting proto players to going down like militia scouts is bullshit and you know it.

Oh and just because Im in the mood, you think needing 2 shots defeats the purpose?

Let me tell you about coordinated sniping, my friend.

A team of 2 snipers, they both are spotting and sniping for each other.
They get into position, line up the scopes, and bring down targest timing their shots.

Thus, I am sorry you are unable to use tactics to get kills.

SNIPERS ARE LONE RANGERS YOU DUMB **** the only tactics in sniping is 1 shooting 1 fixing the aim to account for wind and distance ... snipers dont go in ******* groups aiming at the same targets .. LMAO

Fine then forge guns shouldnt do ANY damage to infantry, anyone using a logi suit shouldnt have a weapon, anyone in a heavy suit shouldnt be able to move when firing and be extremely slow, assault rifles shouldnt have the range they currently have and should have the damage nerfed, Assault suits shouldnt be able to equip anything other than grenades (no uplinks no nanohives etc)

Indeed is this guy's fav word

SNIPERS ARE LONE RANGERS YOU DUMB **** the only tactics in sniping is 1 shooting 1 fixing the aim to account for wind and distance ... snipers dont go in ******* groups aiming at the same targets .. LMAO

My charge SR headshot dmg is 906. I tested this by making one shot in a match which was a headshot.

From 50m out, I shot a Caldari logistics suit that was hacking an objective. I had to fire to shots to the head to get the kill. This means he had more shield and armor than a base heavy.

It shouldn't take two headshots with SR proficiency 5 and 3 complex dmg mods to kill any medium suit.

I can understand it taking two headshots to kill a heavy.

You crack me up, kid.

This is a CalLogi thing tho, they are notorious to have way too much EHP for a medium class.

Other suits can amass more than a base heavy as well and even more than 906 dmg of my SR headshots. Caldari logi can simply do it higher than those suits.

This is the problem in a nutshell all those ppl saying im qq are the ppl in these suits who want to be immortal from all weapons and are blind to just how ridiculously nerfed certain weapon classes are. Frontline infantry not using cover should be fodder for snipers regardless of what suit they are using but i give up with the ***** (it let me use the c word without blocking it so had to re edit it)replying on this thread apart from you obviously because they have absolutely no idea about this game whatsoever ... im in an assualt suit .. haha it takes 2 snipers to kill me trololololo .. absolute nonsense .. if it requires 2 snipers 2 bring down 1 logi/assault/scout then basically your saying 1 person in assault/scout/logi is better than 2 snipers .. why would any squad use 2 of its 6 slots on 2 snipers to kill 1 person when they could be 4 v 6 in cqc out of sniper view and get slaughtered ??? The whole poitn of snipers i to pick ppl off from distance and thin the numbers thus giving the rest of their squad an advantage ...

What the **** did you just ******* say about me, you little *****? IGÇÖll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and IGÇÖve been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and IGÇÖm the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the **** out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my ******* words. You think you can get away with saying that **** to me over the Internet? Think again, ******. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. YouGÇÖre ******* dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and thatGÇÖs just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little ****. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little GÇ£cleverGÇ¥ comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your ******* tongue. But you couldnGÇÖt, you didnGÇÖt, and now youGÇÖre paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will **** fury all over you and you will drown in it. YouGÇÖre ******* dead, kiddo.

im pretty sure that heavy might have been hiding and letting is shields recharged u simple werent fast enough...

besides if anything there needs to be an easier way to force u out of ur little safe zone......

Are you f-¦cking kidding me?

Hi there,

I'm Appia and my friend is Gem. Was that us? Because it has mostly been us in our battles against ROFL.

While the Original Poster has the wit of a middle-school drop-out, there has been a significant decrease to a sniper's capabilities. As some may have noticed, the damage a sniper rifle does to a headshot is displayed as 195%. This amount was well balanced pre-Uprising. It let you 1-shot all but the most armored Logistics suits, the rest would go down in that single shots except for the Heavies. Those guys have a smaller hit-box on their heads to make them even more durable.

Now in Uprising 2 things have changed. Everyone's HP is increased significantly (though both Scouts have less HP than the type-I from the previous build), and everyone's movement has increased. Their speed has been reduced across the board but sprint-strafing and strafe-speed were what changed. People can now run around in more unpredictable ways making each bullet more precious to the snipers. And having over 500 eHP means I can't kill you with a headshot. (my headshots do about 460) This has turned what used to be 1 head shot or 2 body shots into 1 head shot and 1-2 body shots or 4-5 body shots (with the prototype Ishukone Sniper Rifle). While Charge Sniper Rifle users were familiar with 1-shotting people with a body shots, they can no longer kill with a single shot even if it were to the head.
The Tactical variants took an even harder hit. They need 2 headshots to kill- what merc worth their salt would let them get two in a row?

How could snipers not be disgruntled? Not only do we feel impotent in our capacity to deal damage, but they "optimized" the graphics completely blinding us. On May 6th our visual range was 100m/250m/500m (natural, down scope, with spotter). On May 22nd they changed the draw distance from 100m on the 3-D plane to 100m on the 2-D plane. 1.2 changed that primary to 200m on a 2-D plane and that 250m became 300m on the 2-D plane. The Sniper Rifle's range is 599m. That means that even if we know someone is there, we can't see them past that 500m point even though our range exceeds that.

We used to be able to see people from a vantage point and tell our team where people were coming from... Now those guys are the ones telling us where people are.

There were no nerfs to the Sniper Rifle, just the changes in the core mechanics that makes us feel underpowered. It is all infuriating, so please excuse the other snipers' rage and poor grammar.

We need either the Thale's TAR-07 Sniper Rifle or to stack 4 complex damage mods just to recreate the power our rifles had last build, but even then we can't see past 500m. The Sniper Rifle is a defensive weapon, no longer fit to be used to kill swaths of oncoming foes, no longer capable of detecting where the enemy is.

Only a moron would insult the person they agree with and be friendly with the person who gave the OP **** because they disagreed .. lol you crack me up

Yah,

Sometimes these guys take up to 6 shots to drop. Just sayin'.

Crazy.

Good post. As a newbie sniper, I wouldn't have know what the deal was other than overly high HP. This is the reason I use the charge shiper vs a faster ROF SR. I have to hope that my headshot will do the trick and they are not easy, at least for me. My charge will not take out a competent players shields which makes it difficult. Since I may not get the kill, I have to take out as much HP as possibly in one shot for the assist as I may not get another shot.

you used to able to snipe corner to corner of the map. I would jump out of the mcc and snipe people leaving their mcc, to slow down the rush on the points.

I also never had the balls to sit out in the open even a little bit, or someone would take my head off. in 1.2 I know the most red line snipers can't even see me in their draw distance, | can setup a picnic basket and have lunch in the open field half the time and be safe.

Oh and just because Im in the mood, you think needing 2 shots defeats the purpose?

so your saying it should take 2 snipers to take down 1 guy with that logic it should take 2 guys with proto gear to destroy my tank correct?
ps how about a like to push it too 100

I gave you a like just now when you were at 99, i hope its the 100th

This is what you sound like.
