I won’t say much on this but I only started to notice this more recently as more and more people have got access to it… The devs need to seriously nerf sniper/recon. Thermal, range finder, sweet spot AND headshot training path (which is still broken, plus other benefits) - How is this even allowed?
They could remove the sweet spot and the unrevivable headshot perk, for all I care.
They have already patched the ranged finder to have a delay to avoid the keybind facerolling.
The biggest problem a sniper faces in these games is that if they are anywhere close to a helpful distance, they have a weapon disadvatage.
I don't mind the thermals, sweet spot, or range finder (already nerfed), but I have to admit that I'd be glad to see that unrevivable headshot perk to disappear. I haven't liked that since beta.
The sweet spot needs to be removed. There are so few skilled snipers in BF6 that it's insane. When I get a match against too many snipers, I usually switch over to counter snipe and start rolling in kills. It really breaks them when you learn game mechanics and don't have glare as well because they're so trained to look for it. Snipers need to git gud again and start landing headshots if they want that OHKO kill.
They also need to bring back proper suppression. In the golden era of BF, snipers couldn't just stand out in the open because getting shot or even shot at would cause significant sway on their scope. It would also give you a strong accuracy debuff. This also applied to spamming movements so players couldn't just strafe to counter another player.
I’m not saying remove snipers, something needs to go from the benefits or increasing the points of the attachments
I disagree. Snipers are part of warfare. And I agree it’s very upsetting to run around and suddenly die from a sniper shot but in reality, that’s what the vehicles are for. Find those “sweet” spots and rain death on the pesky snipers.
I would like to see sniper weapons eliminated from Infantry Breakthrough. It is SUPPOSED to be foot soldiers vs foot soldiers fighting to take territory. No aircraft, no vehicles.
But guys have found snug little nests they go to, and spend the entire game killing those who are actually trying to play based on the stated goals.
No sniper rifles, no DMR's.
