Re: The NTW-50 should be buffed to become a proper anti-air weapon

@Lady_One I have t1ed all sniper rifles except the ntw.
Is just so bad at medium and large distances, that is pointless to me.
People use it for close combat which is really not the point of a sniper rifle.

    @Natilla4RealThe NTW-50 is basically useless for sniping infantry, yes. The 1shot range is ~120 meters so the only way to use it is close range, non-HP ammo only as HP can't 1shot anymore after an uncalled for patch. I have used it pre-patch enough to T1 it but it was not an enjoyable experience for me, and I doubt it was an enjoyable experience for the people I killed either.

    I'm completely in favor of its anti-infantry role being minimized in exchange for making it a proper, balanced anti-vehicle weapon. Helicopters tend to be far away a lot of the time, so it's not like it stops being a sniper rifle.

    I think the NTW-50 should be able to one shot little birds and jets.

    Yeah probably one of the best ideas in a long time. Can finally put those babies in the air vehicles to bed.

    @D-Man3847It was particularly strong at launch, being able to 2shot helicopters and 4shot tanks, but it was too overpowered in that state and got nerfed.
