Recon need balancing !
1- "Sniper glint" The glint glow is too noticeable, the glint should remain but the glow strength should be reduced. 2 - "Bullet trail" Sniper scopes already have big glint. It already adds a huge...

about the fatal sniper headshots specifically : they're an anti fun mechanic, it doesn't feel good to randomly catch a bullet halfway across the map from an enemy sniper that sits in spawn only to be faced by a "sorry bro, regular BS would mean you get to be revived, this? Nah" and the real reward for the average recon? nothing. as they sit so far back that they're effectively playing their own game entirely, not to mention that it sometimes still allows you to be revived despite being headshot by a sniper, it just doesn't feel good to be hit with, question is will the few players that actually would benefit from it, really enjoy it enough to warrant the majority of other players being hit with an anti fun mechanic? not to mention that recons should still play around a squad, not solo just how every other class.
Flank argument, have you tried to shoot someone's head across a map. Unless you have AA its not that easy. Not to mention glint makes you by default a target and i have counter sniped snipers with almost every gun in the game, except the shotgun (don't play assault) and pistol (takes too long) more likely to get head shot.
2nd, the reason y recon class likes to camp its because we are not effective at stealth (glint again). Recon is not effective in tight corners y rather cover the street next to the base we are stealing and counter flanking then sit there with a pistol sinse i already placed the motion sensor (give up easy points but I'm more useful)
I like a challenge and body shots don't always kill, I would prefer they exaggerate bullet drop so it takes more skill then point and shot ( i agree with you guys on this), they are removing the beacon from recon so the camping problem should lessen but I wish they give it to the medic instead.
Not sure how I feel about the sweet spot, quite sure everyone has but I think i would prefer they added that as a different type of ammo (critical hit), that way you'll you to weight your option.
