Someone who is great with a sniper can take out multiple targets in a confined area in an incredibly small amount of time, with a headshot or two and smart backup weapon switches along with clever use of cover and movement. Meeeehhhhh :( I just don't understand the points some people try to make. I think some people just enjoy being argumentative.
Sniper is underplayed in 1.1 because the AR is so OP, we all know that, just try and play sniper in ctf on a map like gothic or elevation against a decent team. AR has the ability to rifle sprint which makes flagging with the sniper even harder, you are talking about public play where it is possible to play aggressive sniper so I'm not going to continue dissecting your argument, but do you really think game balance should depend on how easy it is to kill noobs?
