I don't understand, you expect the sniper rifle to become more powerful every version?
I've played sniper as long as I can remember, sure its not the best choice in clan matches in the current version, but this game wasn't designed for just clan matches - theres thousands of "newbie" players that just wanna have fun on the pubs - we have to satisfy them also.
Like I said, current version opinions in this thread are pointless, it's about AC 1.1.1.0 (aka the next version) - which has seen quite a few changes in regards to weapon balance.
Because of those changes, your experience in the current version is likely to change in the next version. You should test the next version to find out if the changes are for the better or worse. (and not just say worse because your favorite weapon was "nerfed" a bit)
