can we get a new sniper rifle?
so firstly im going to start this by saying i hate that the triple take is not a sniper rifle. mostly because we cant put a sniper scope on it. especially when the voiceline for the gun by bangalore is that it has little drop over distance. which is what you want out of a sniper rifle.
secondly that they changed marksman guns to take a sniper stock but cant use sniper scopes. i feel like you might as well let them both share scopes and stocks at this point with the exception being the sniper digital threat maybe. but make the triple take a sniper again not a marksman. which also brings up a point of what type of ammo the gun will take when it comes back to ground loot if it stays this way. i would think shotgun if things are kept this way.
so we have a rapid fire quick mag rifle with some decent drop over distance.
a more powerful less drop over distance slow cocking chargable rifle.
and a laser that does 3-90 damage depending how much of the beam hits the enemy.
and im not even gonna talk about kraber because there is no way that thing belongs on the floor EVER no matter what you do to it. beast damage extremely long reloads...yeah
what id like to see is maybe an actual charge up sniper rifle style rail gun. something that when aiming down sights will increase in power like the 30-30 does. rewarding patient snipers, the thing is you would want next to no or no drop over distance like the charge rifle. this could be OP but i think that having it have to charge between shots will keep it in check. damage ranging from 48-100 would be pretty good since 48 is on the low end of what you get on a body shot for a longbow on a gibby. and 100 is what the 30-30 gets when its a fully charged up shot to the head. this would make no scoping more difficult with a sniper but allowing the "choke" like on the triple take to be turned off would allow those crazy close quarters no scopers to let it charge (at a slower rate) for hipfire.
thoughts?
