On Hold Sniper copium post

[Medinator]

There are 30 classes from what i counted (including donators) that have snipers

Snipers are given out like candy to a bunch of classes that dont need them and its overall just ruining the state of PVP

You dont even need to nerf the damage on snipers or anything granted theyre doing up to 180 bodyshot but its the fact everyone gets them, being a sniper is suppose to a role in itself and a special purpose

i know all the commanders are gonna disagree because CO classes get snipers but i think officers should have to go on the sniper class to use the sniper

Donator classes are gonna be a stretch and probably gonna remain but i just think itd be cooler if they had more unique weapons

maybe the next map thats being made currently will be better and is the solution but as of right now it feels very bad

i speak for my fellow copers against snipers

so true +1

-1, every faction has only 1 sniper class aside from a specialized one that requires donating. Some factions ONLY get donator snipers. I agree with officers not being given snipers but snipers are garbage currently, I snipe very often and the hitreg is horrible currently. Unless the snipers have a hitreg fix they don't need to be nerfed when you shoot 5 rounds, 3 hit but do no damage, 1 misses and the last one does 85 health to center mass.

I'm neutral on this currently, because as syth said above hitreg for snipers can be very finicky and sometimes you shoot someone center mass and the shots don't register at all but at the end of the day if snipers get significantly improved on the server then I could most definitely agree we should limit the amount of people with access to the snipers.

like whay syth said there is a sniper class for every faction besides base factions. I like that so if there is a sniper on the opposing team the other team can switch and snipe back at them. I feel like right now with the new update there will be a few things happening with all of that and hopefully the new map wont have to many sniper spots. There is a few complaints on some snipers we have now and the few things is the vega sniper doesnt always reg, you can shoot someone 3 times before it regs and it kinda sucks because of that. 63rd has a sniper class but its for donaters only but i belive NATO is not a dono class. With this update we can talk and try to get soc factions to do seperate tryouts for different classes they get within the faction i will bring this up to smity and see what can be done.
