Most snipers are cowards by nature, so for them to pick up this new weapon it got to have some serious upsides to it. Either it'll be overpowered as hell or balanced and won't be used by anyone. |

if the sniper is made to be alot like a quake rail gun then the calss gets a whole new dynamic. as a small side note ::For the love of all things ppl can we be adult enough to wait for the update before we complain about balance and nerfing. Ive seen any number of posts before every class update with people complaining about the additional free content that is keepign the player base playign the game. Id have loved BF2 to have the kind of dev support that tf2 is getting. |

You won't be so calm when they announce Sniper back armour to prevent backstabs.  |

Don't think anyone's complaining yet, I'd like to see snipers getting closer to the action. I'm just saying I don't think the snipers would. |

I would love a sidegrade like that, one of the reasons i suck as a sniper (besides bad aim) is that i just cba to stick at one spot and aim at a doorway, if i dont see enemies i run around looking for them... and die. |

I use the default rifle up close anyway, so this concept doesn't sound that new to me. It's what they swap the SMG for that worries me. Butching up my soldier skills for the update, ain't gonna stand beside 4/5/6 other snipers on a team. Any chance of class limits again when the update hits? |

WEEEEE update!.. I'm not going to prejudge that weapon lest I antagonise poor Grippy! (Although if I was going to I'd say that I don't happen to like stun effects ..but we don't know how this will actually work so maybe it's awesome and not annoying at all! It might not even BE a stun effect.. maybe only the dead bodies get stuck to walls.. like a new gib effect kinda thing )

From the looks of it it's like a sniper rifle with no zoom but with 1 sec charge time. This fits into the whole getting close to battle theme they've been promoting as you won't get kills over distance but you'll still do good damage up close with the short charge time. I fear the thought of competitive snipers holding this. Edited by tomregev on 12-05-2009 21:54 |
