Content Suggestion Remove snipers or make it a warfund

[Betriv]

What does this suggestion change/add/remove: Removing snipers from the server or making it harder to obtain

Has something similar been suggested before? If so, why is your suggestion different?: dont know

Possible Positives of the suggestion (At least 2): Surface PvP is 10x more fun, Players aren't forced to grind a rank in order to unlock something that makes surface playable. No more getting shot from the fog and not being able to do anything about it

Possible Negatives of the suggestion: Less weapon choices

Based on the Positives & Negatives, why should this suggestion be accepted:
Currently snipers are just insufferable to play as and play against. You don't see someone 500 meters away hiding in the fog? Your leg is fractured and you are forced to walk at 14 HP until you get sniped again from the same spot that you STILL can't see due to tracers never working. If you aren't a rank in a department, regiment, or faction you don't get a sniper at all and you're forced to use a worse weapon and hope you can close the distance for a fair fight. Snipers genuinely ruin surface and make people, me included not want to roam surface because its not fun being obliterated from the fog with absolutely zero counterplay. Snipers either need a nerf or a full removal. Snipers are incredibly flawed and ruin the experience for a huge amount of players.

The whole point of snipers is to shoot someone who cant see you. If you were shot by a 50 caliber round, or anything adjacent you would end up with broken/fractured bones. Sniper is a specialized job, made for 2 people per faction, they are not the center of surface combat.

As someone who used to enjoy playing marksman when he was in CI, I can tell you it is not impossible to deal with a sniper.

3. Remove snipers

Honestly...? ...This is an interesting idea. Trial it.

Give it a week and let's find out what surface combat is like when long-range combat is just not a thing.

discourages surface combat, especially if its unbalanced

+ Support,
Snipers should be a niche and not the main way of combat, when I go to surface more than half of the combat is snipers

 

[BorisIsGood]

+Support I actually love this idea for surface combat health

Crazy idea, transfer the Nu7 and CI Officer weapons to the marksmen class since they are the weakest officer weapons on the server, from there give Nu7 and CI Officers weapons that make their job class viable. Boom!

for snipers being warfunds

 

[Hanjoebadiel]

Make it 1 sniper per faction but make it 1 shot

 

[Shinan]

+ Support. I never use snipers, so it doesn't affect me. Not to mention, it'll be a major nerf to CI, so this always has my support

Cuz its a bigger faction and those 4 snipers are split up between 2 departments.
