Do you think should be a limited number of snipers

But the problem has escalated, lately I've seen lieuts out feeding the snipers ammo.

Lame ass snipers :blow:

You can have my mauser when you pry my cold dead fingers from around it. Nothing feels as good as reaching out and touching someone in that special way. It has nothing to do with K/R it has to do with stealth and patience and nailing the medics before they nail you... esp Lone Wolf

You guys hate really good snipers cause we keep you in check. You want to infest our beach? You are going to get hurt! You want to ventilate our engineers? You are going to get a head shot. You want to camp on the upper deck spewing mayhem? One little shot changes the whole story.

Yeah, there are a lot of ineffectual snipers out there. They aren't having much fun either cause I keep popping them too. Yet, there are lame medics running around, and pansies galore and leuts who WON'T give any ammo under any circumstances. I understand your feelings, but each person plays this silly game for their own reasons. You can try to convince them that -your- way is best; but don't hold your breath. And if you would please just "pause" for a sec while at that window, I would like to take a closer look at what you are wearing...

I am with Klink here when I say that you should all stop whinging about snipers. The assumption you make, which is wrong, is that it is more noble to stand on the netting throwing grenades until your panzer has charged than it is to snipe. Snipers have little ammo and are vulnerable to attacks from the back. Even if there were not these disadvantages you could all avoid them by staying inside and away from the damn windows. As to the issue of whether or not snipers aid the cause the team the answer is clearly yes as they provide safe passage for half of the journey to the docs.

Basically snipers get low scores, they generaly stay clear of the forward bunker door and can provide an extremely valuable service to the allied force. Snipers rock!

This is a poll about limiting the number of soldier sniper (like flamer, panzer and vedicator. they are all limited on ECGN 64 pls 7/24).
This is no poll to criticise (spelling??????) sniper using players, everyone has is favorite one.
Please, stay to the first question, do you think there should be a limited number of sniper players on ECGN 64 pls 7/24.
Sniper can be a powerful weapon if used with skills, I will never denied that, but I am a bit sick to see the american lose cause there is 6 snipers american, wich is 1/4 of the team if the server is full. Do you realy think a team can win with that kind of team????????
I personely think that ECGN beach could realy benefit of a limit number of sniper. The limited number of the other heavy weapons realy helped redussing tybe of abusses.

PS My english realy suck, I never shure of the spelling.
Desole (Sorry)

Wolf on line is a team game. It isn't tetris. It isn't about me going on line and doing whatever I want. It's about me not using the spawn door as a vantage point because it blocks....wait for it.... my team. It isn't about me only feeding myself as a lute or hording my bar till I can make an air strike because...wait for it....my team needs ammo. It isn't about me as a med only healing myself because...wait for it...my team needs my med-pacs and needles.

I can't believe people actually think that because a sniper occasionaly kills someone that they are of any real worth.

A noob with a faust kills more people in one shot than most snipers get the whole game.

I can randomly throw nades around (and I do at certain points in the game) just on the off-chance of killing someone. And it works. I figure I kill about 1/6 nades thrown. So does that mean I should just hide behind a wall throwing random nades just on the off chance that I'll eventually kill a few people? It would work. No question. I'd probably even get more kills than most snipers.

Come on folks, the truth is a good player kills about 40 people on average per round. How many do snipers kill? 10? 15 on a good round? Even 20-30 if they're an excellant sniper like Ming. Still doesn't compare.

And as someone wisely pointed out--as a lute I kill about 40 of the enemy AND feed my mates a wack of ammo--which helps kill another 200 of them.

Snipers are annoying pests. Rodents. Sure they're a pain, like a rabbit in your garden. But they arn't a thresher of annilihation like Shipwreck or Zog or Lone Wolf or Chaos or Rambone or ....hell, a LOT of guys that will mow through the garden like an International Harvester.

Give me a noob-carrying sluggish faust jock any day as a back-up over some sniper. At least when I'm gettin' all friendly with the meanies in the war room, and I hear the whine of his faust charging, I KNOW all hell is going to break out and a heck of a lot of new carnage wall-paper is going to be made.

*laughs* When WHEN was the last time anyone EVER saw a sniper take out the objective carrier? LMFAO I've played this game LOTS and I've NEVER seen that. I HAVE seen the noob faust jock go 'HOLY SHIT' WWwwwhhhhiinnnnneeeee KA-BLAM, and single handedly wipe out half the allied team.

Good point, also how many times does a sniper actually register a gib? So in essence all you're really doing is wounding people. For a team to be successful, you must gib your opponents. The snipers on the allie side hurt their team because it causes them to go into the trenches and into buildings outnumbered. I know if I'm on the Axis side as a Med, first thing I'll do is head out to sniper hill with my needle

....which then evens the teams as you are on the beach and not in the bunker. You really need to think out your remarks before you make them

by **stallzer** » Tue May 27, 2003 5:36 pm

Medic VS Snipers, I wouldn't call that even. I can take out every sniper on the beach. On the other hand, I don't stand a chance against say 2 or 3 lieuts,meds...etc.
You should really think out your replys before you jump on people trying to be a wise guy. :ar15:
