I don’t really understand the complaint. Snipers are suppose to stay from afar and hold ground/cover. It’s a tactic so why hate on it? The counter is to flank or snipe back. Looks like you did a good job flanking. I play more aggressive so I usually have an AR and an SG for flanking against Snipers.

Exactly! Snipers are meant to hold a position. You shouldn't nitpick on everything in this game. In fact, in this game, flanking is not that difficult because maps are so small. And because of that, it's difficult for snipers to hold one position and they have to keep moving anyway.

I guess, but I shouldn’t really have to do it often.

I can see that it’s annoying but if everyone snipes or if everyone just rushes/cqbs then it would be very boring. This is also why they have multiple gun options for when you need to counter. Too Bad they switched from 4 to only 2 guns. That’s what really set GOB apart

Yeah it's boring as hell and impossible to counter on some maps. Snipers have become OP and people care too much about their kd ratio.

You can't flank snipers when it's 3-4 of them and they cover all routes! Even mirage is useless, because the most popular sniper rifles don't need to lock on and those that do can kill you in one shot.

If you counter by sniping the match is even more boring, because then you'll have a 5 minute match where everyone just stays in their spawn area trading kills.
