I would never expect snipers if the entirely team is losing when all points are captured and are losing terribly!
I think it should be clear to the other team that they wouldn't be credit if the team loses to the point where snipers are looking for target practice, go play an ambush match if you are looking for target practice!
It's funny but I would say that if I'm playing Skirmish because I want to take control of points and win, I would expect people to take over points and hold those points or to re-capture those points and to get help the team. Not camp and wait for the magic to have the tide change and have the other members of the team getting killed or trying to find ways to take control of the points!
Not only that, I also think they're losing because there like 6 to 8 players (half of the entire team) who are being snipers!, What's the point of entering a skirmish match then?
... and I do think people are abusing it. It's simple, take over the points and win the match!
A few things:
- First of all, snipers do not have skills in any other thing then sniping, they are fragile and are not suited to take over points.
- Game mechanics is not allowing to take stealthily the good spots in the middle of the map when enemy team have all of the points, as soon as you order DS you are dead-sniper.
- Ambush matches are not for snipers - when your target if focused on taking objective he act differently from guy who want to kill you.
- Bugs prevent us from successfully defending skirmish objectives, occasionally we have to deal with immortal hacker that get none dmg or we have to deal with infantry that melt with the objective texture, or simply invisible people, low-frame rate runners that teleports.
- Match-making system works fine, if you have 6 snipers in the team, opposite side have snipers to.

* If you have all SP invested into sniper you are an idiot (I can snipe just as effectively/or even more with 0 training and MLT gear) * Any spot can be a good spot (you can snipe from 500 meters hello) * If all you can do is crouch and wait for sway to stop you suck at sniping sorry (learn to CQC snipe or QS) ambush should't stop you from sniping just cause you can't camp an objective * The bugs and rendering I will give you that but everyone deals with this (forge gunners, railgunners, etc.) Hahahaaa.. what a BS.
1. If I have a problems with killing some of proto-sentinels because they are constantly pumping by logistics, and I'm trying to do this with full-proto-fit extremely focused on dps.. well it's just prove that your Uber-militia-0-training fit is waste of time, and don't bother to use it .
2. The main characteristic determining good spot is a visibility that it gives, and the angle from which you see the victims - yes you can sit on the red-line hill 500m from victims, but you have cut visability, and you are on the pan for other snipers that have spots on higher altitude and know that lazy ""snipers"" with 0 traning usually choose most easily accessible spots.
3. What Sway?!? O! forgot you are that "0 training sniper" Ambush stopping me from being sniper first of all because I can spawn amog red dots at the beginning and loose dropsuit worth 150k just like that; secondlly ambush have just 50 clones, so when I get to spot to support action of my teammates the match is already in half; thirdly game dynamics, where there is no objective, people don't know where to gather to fight, once they can be on you LoS, secondly God know where.
4. I don't know about FG gunners, but as HAV pilot I usually get hit by invisible units, and when I'm trying to fight from me Optimal Range and I'm without squad, server looks like I'm the only guy playing.
