To be honest, snipers arent a primary part of real world battlefields, this is based on research of the topic. The training is to extensive, its to expensive, and its not an all around weapon, because war is fluid. But BF4 and COD MW were over run with them. I never played COD until Dice experimented with Ww1 and Ww2. I have to admit COD MW is a good game, love the graphics, but their sniper problem is massive and the reason why I don't love the game and play it for limited stretches. They have this option to allow players to carry 2 primary weapons and a sniper rifle is the main one they would choose. You cant take 2 steps after spawning without getting shot from across the map, and its massively frustrating. The game just doesnt flow properly which makes you bore easily.
Too make this the best authenic game ever, limit the number of snipers. 1 per squad at minimum or a total limit overall. Also if you buy a server, create the ability to exclude snipers. They are not prevelant on a real battlefield, why frustrate your grinders by someone capable of making a cheap shot. COD ttk is perfect on most part outside the sniper issue and map size. The frustrating part about BF4 was you had to shot someone a thousand times to kill them. Throw in a sniper rifle then you never stood a chance.
So, for the sake of your franchise and truly dominate the market. No 2 primary weapons like sniper and assault rifle carried at the same time, and can you please do something about those nonskilled snipers that can easily ruin the game? You would be surprised how it flows without them.
Maybe Sniper ammo should be limited and only resuppliable at ammo stations

To be honest if you are losing a game where the team opposite has too many snipers then you really dont belong on Battlefield, snipers do not really hold much weight in an objective based game mode, and i for one have never lost a game and said at the end, Damn those snipers.
the only people that would say that, in my opinion, are the lone wolf K/D ho's that REALLY ruin the game.

I don't think K/D should track unless your team wins the match.
Except for assignments and weapon/attachments unlocks.
- 5 years agoCan't revive the dead in the real world. If the whole TM is snipers there must be a demand. If is so easy, just snipe them back. On a open map assume someone has you in their sight. If you carry a machine gun then your only looking at what you can see with out a scope. Carry a big scope and now your scanning a much larger area and would see the sniper. Limit the ammo and I'll just kill myself. A sniper is useful for when the TM is taking flags, because he's the look out man. Players didn't seem to mine when I spotted for them. In fact they ate the enemy up like candy. I'm sure air was happy being able to see targets marked for them or people with stingers. Make snipers sound selfish, when my greatest weapon was actual spotting for the team, pointing them to the threats. There was a unspoken communication between me and the TM. I'd spot everything and keep tanks lit up, but focus on the important threats that would help win the games. And other players got that message and would act quickly. It's actually a beautiful thing to see the team respond and amazingly how quit they have taken out threats for me when tanks and heli's had me pin down, but go BOOM in 2 sec flat. Get to me, got to go thru the team first. I take no credit and give it all to the team. It's like tanks won't move forward, but if they know someone is looking out and spotting for them then they move forward and they show their appreciation by trying to protect me as well. For me it's more like being a commander and just not spotting near, but fare as well. That's not selfish, but helping the whole TM. I'm more a threat using sofa spotting for the team, then if I just run/gun, because I'm pretty much TM strong. I spot and let the run/gunners do what they do, should let snipers do what they do and give them more tools if anything. BF3 had dmr for recon for up close and beacons are fun. I sure can do a lot more and have a lot more fun being recon, then just running with my head cut off like a chicken.

Only you and I really care about winning the match, everyone else cares about their KD ratio. I introduced my nephew to BF4 and he died often. He took up sniper because it was easy and liked it. "I finally get some kills" he cared nothing about the objective. As far as snipers ruined a match. That's the only reason why I took the time to make this post.
