Actually if your smart enough you can get away from a sniper. From the top of the map my farthest range was below the stairs at b1. And frankly if you used one you would see that unless your quick most people can get to safety in time. You have to line yourself up nicely for the shot.

It is profiting zone quite nicely. Sniper is a gelat weapon that most people like. Like the prox..it may be annoying but what are you going to do about it.

But my idea to make the bullet a tracer round might actually work...that way you could get a general direction the sniper is in.

ive never used sniper, but from what ive heard you find someone, scroll your mouse wheel over them, then click on them, dosent sounds that skillfull, also when you are busy fighting you fail to notice the barely visable dot hovering around you.

maybe is instead just a stray dot, the sniper had more of a laser sight connecting the dot to the sniper, that way you can follow the trail of a sniper line and stop them.

One thing to reduce the lameness and slackness of the sniper rifle is make the player visible on radar whilst they are using the sniper rifle then the players being sniped actually have a chance to locate these snipers and fight them face to face, or have the range reduced so that they can only shot people in a certain perimeter of the radar so it isn't as hard to locate the sniper and you could also remove the head shot one hit K.O because that really irritates me when i just spawn unaware of snipers and wait for a friend to spawn then get shot in head with a sniper rifle without even the slightest warning. You could also make the mark where the sniper is aiming more visible and easier to see.

I never had one either, but I've got told you click a button and it automatically moves over to the nearest victim to snipe, or even selective players.

Press button, scroll mouse wheel and shoot.
