"increase the bullet velocity"
This has got to be a joke. Bullet velocity is already way too high. Sniping has been made way too easy in this game, sniping should get a huge nerf. Lower bullet velocity, greater bullet drop, proper suppression.
You're only taking into account when you die and your own enjoyment of the gameplay because you don't play as a sniper. We have the difficulty of having to aim much more than any other class, along with the slow fire rate of the weapon, which takes quite a while between shots. Taking real life into account, a single sniper shot is extremely lethal, far more than any other weapon a human being can carry. When it comes to playing a game like this, you can't simply think only about yourself. The game is not a real-life simulator, but it should stay as close to reality as possible. I only play as a sniper, so I have the experience to speak on this, and if there's one thing that's very frustrating, it's realizing that the other classes deal practically the same amount of damage as you in 2 to at most 3 bullets, while a sniper who misses 1 shot is practically dead because of the slow fire rate and the difficulty of aiming at distances between 70 and 150 meters.
I'm not only thinking about myself. I used to play the sniper role a ton in prior battlefield games. Sniping has always been challenging, that's part of what makes landing a headshot so satisfying. Eyeing range to account for bullet drop, doing calculations in your head, putting the crosshair in the right spot to land that headshot. Now at so many ranges, you don't have to do that, you just aim on the head or only slightly above, and bam, it's a headshot. The idea that it's difficult to aim at distances between 70 to 150 meters is a joke, it's incredibly easy.
Easy sniping puts in far more snipers in a match, and most snipers are selfish players who don't care about contributing to teamplay, they just want their KD, sitting in a single spot the entire match.
