The sniper kit should be removed and replaced with an AA kit, because sniping is retarded and doesn't help the team at all.
true dat.

only joy i get out of sniping is sitting on the essex tower shooting ppl out of jets and choppers, funniest shit ever.

I'm getting fed up with all the snipers in this game. On Insomnia Mashtuur the other day, as USMC:

A third of the team was sniper

A third was a bunch of point-whoring medics

A third was a bunch of support

When a tank went to spawn camp in South Gas, ppl spawned as Engineers. Oh, and our commander was reluctant to be an engy himself and instead was a sniper. God. A good team should only have about 5 snipers AT MOST. Any more is just overkill.
go to insomnia sharqi now thats bad.

To many sniper's is not good...but get over yourself. You have skills but nothing that is out of the reach of any gamer with time and dedication.

If this all a joke on your part then by all mean's carry on mate.

SNIPERS DONT WIN CONQUEST MAPS

Snipers are good.  They can pin people down for like years at a time, except when we get pinned down... they know exactly where we are and can deliver a carrot sized bullet into our craniums.  Our only defense out?  Pile into some armor!

Yes, Nyte I do agree with you, snipers are just springing up way too much.  But the thing I hate most about it is as soon as I kill, or my teammates kill the tank, Im stuck with the AT kit.  Then I go and die and when I respawn with the kit I want, another freakin tank comes along.  Half our team has already respawned back to their desired kit and thus the cycle continues.  Its really lame.

Now Im not saying youre the best sniper out there, but with 58 freakin percent accuracy, I'd say you can definately give anyone a good run for their money.  I like your vids, but what I like most is that whenever you start a post people just come in here with this "psh... Im so arrogant that youre not arrogant" attitudes.  I mean jeez if you guys would just actually be relevant to a post rather than flame him.  I mean sure Im arrogant, I admit that, whats the freakin deal about it?  Everyone who plays this game has to be arrogant in some way, so just drop it.  If you've ever said owned when you've killed someone, then tell me thats not arrogant.  I can tell you that Nyte will hand me my ass on a platter when it comes to sniping, but 1v1 no explosives I could probably give him a run for it.  We all have our strong points.

{TA}FireStorm  IS #1 and he is un schniper.  Maybe you should look again if you don't see a sniper being top player.

FireStorm is only the top sniper because of his playtime and commander artillery/armor kills while using the sniper kit.  His sniper rifle stats are not that great.  661 hours and only 8K kills?  There are far better "true" snipers out there.
661:44:40 8,026 4,447 1.8048 52.05%  This is only 12 sniper rifle kills per hour.

33:54:50 778 438 1.7763 48.19%  I'm only an average sniper, and prefer to play the patient sniper, and yet I have 22 sniper rifle kills per hour.

Tahadar has 42 kills per hour.
Nyte has 51 kills per hour.
SinnFein has 35 kills per hour.
CitizenOne has 26 kills per hour.
LivelyToaster has 38 kills per hour.
Chikyuushoujoarujuna has 60 kills per hour.
dont_be_ss has 41 kills per hour.
omagazero has 96 kills per hour.
Little-Chinky-But has 70 kills per hour.
sgtm_yuri has 64 kills per hour.

And these don't include pistol/knife kills.

I consider omagazero one of the best, if not the best, sniper out there...

But if you watch Nyte's video, he is not "sniping," he is just running around with a .50 cal.  I mean what "sniper" runs down the middle of the road shooting people?

Hmmm... just looked at the Win / Loss ratio of some of the top snipers.  A good many of them have below 1.0 ratios.   Nyte's got a point ...

There are far too many snipers out there now.  Now I'm not saying they are bad and all, I'm just saying I'm light years ahead of them.

When there is a Tank killing us continuously, and every single member of our team is Sniper class, that spells L-O-S-S.  Now I'm not that experienced of an AT, but I will definitely spawn as AT if a similiar situation arises.
I do everything that is Jesus-ly possible (not physically possible, but JESUS-LY possible) to make our team win rather than go for the golden KD (even though my real KD would be so high that everyone seeing it would have their heads explode).

I know I know, people see me and want to be in my shoes yada yada (which is the reason for the rise of popularity of Sniping).  But please do so discretely, don't do it just to benefit yourself and cause your team to lose.

Why complain, its that much easier to get knife kills.

Hmm,I just checked and I have about 25 kills per hour with the sniper rifle,but I guess it's not quite accurate because I spent 95% of my 90 hours as commander as a sniper,so there's a lot of time without actually trying to shoot somebody...

Yeah,maybe Nyte gets 51 kills in an hour but gets killed 35 times in return,I still believe that the first rule of sniping is not to be seen.When I only get 10 kills in a round and don't get killed once I'm more content with that than with getting 30 kills and dying a few times.

True.  Would be nice if we could extract Commander time.  In my case, I play a fair amount of aircraft maps, and as such, I spend a good amount of my sniper time moving about and finding/waiting for targets.

But as Nyte has exemplified, a 51 Kill / 35 Death ratio is better for the team win than a 10 Kill / 0 Death ratio.  Add flag bleed from caps in the mix, and there is no contest.

54 kills/31 deaths per hour now.

My wrist has fully recovered so those numbers are going to look a whole lot better.

Wtf does a wrist do with sniping in a game? I just got a cast off of my left thumb two weeks ago, but that didn't inhibit my playing. Stop making excuses.
