So one thing I haven't specced into at all is a sniper rifle. So maybe all this is my fault, but one of the most dissapointing thing in the game right now are snipers...on my own team.
Somehow, I kid you not, I am regularly being put on teams with at least 3 snipers. I had one with 6 in the first 2 minutes of the game the other day...and we WERE winning. Then we were just consistantly outnumbered while defending objectives, because the snipers were awful.
I get that new players probably come out of the academy with a death phobia, and are all about making isk and I don't blame them for that rationale, but I've gotten on comms before to attempt to explain that they are losing the game for their teams. Most of them don't care about the idea of teams or winning, but just want to watch these numbers rise on their stats.
Besides trolling them with LAVs whta else can we do to stop their kind from multiplying, because I see more and more as time goes on. |

And minus a very few, eventually, you will see less and less.
Those that stay with sniper might become a valuable asset if they're good enough.
The rest will spec into something else. |

You know how many times ive killed 3 of 4 enemy coming in to take a objective to have the 3 ground mercs guarding it be killed by the 1, lol and you want to complain about snipers. maybe it was you front line mercs were awful and you were just counting on the snipers to do all the work for you.
What else can we do to stop your kind from multiplying. You know the kind that think this game is only about you and your play style(class).
spec into sniper rifle and counter snipe them. If you kill them enough they might spec into something different. Don't you know sniper takes no skill and even less to kill them so you should have plenty of skill to be a counter sniper cleaning up the server of awful snipers.
You might have got a sniper like me in game that just read one of these posts and wanted to sit back and laugh as you got consistantly outnumbered because you are just as ungrateful fucks when you do have good sniper support. |

This is a large map war game of course their is going to be snipers. I do not run a sniper fit but they can be very useful. If their are too many snipers you just got to deal with it and fight on. |

How did this get necroed? I am seeing less and less. If u want to know what we experience, wait till u get redlined and then try to solo objectives. |

If they were awful logies or awful ARs then your team still would have lost  |

What the OP is trying to convey is that snipers should be the only weapon on the game. |

Stupid bodies distracting enemies on the frontline at least distract the other team. 75% of the sniper I watch got 3-4/0 most of the time. |

That would be so fun it should be a new game mode.
