Just as the title suggests, putting them at Tier 3+ will let new players learn to play obejectives as opposed to sitting 100 metres from the cap point and waiting to make random pot shots every few minutes.
well, it was said that with the steam versions,
new players would get relatively quickly engineers opposed as snipers.
but… yeah the steam version didn’t go as planned.

No.
Game is meant to be fun. If someone wants to snipe all day because it’s fun for him, let him do it.
Try to incentivise ppl to do things you want instead of terrorising them.

What about not seal clubbing at low BRs and instead be playing high BRs?
Then you don’t have to worry about newbies camping with sniper rifles.

This is hardly me “terrorising” new players. I myself have only just reached Tier 2. This is just a suggestion to encourage team play, as opposed to the way it currently sits, with new players feeling somewhat useless early game. However, I did not know about them moving engineers lower, which would somewhat fix this problem.
You don’t encourage anything. You just forbid ppl from doing something. It’s not the same.
That’s the issue.

Official recognition of the importance of engineers
So put them in the gift bag and increase the price by $10
Maybe you will see a large number of monkeys holding a single piece of level 3 equipment for sniping in the level 5 field
It’s like someone driving an M5A1 in a level 5 environment, hiding in the gray zone and using a machine gun to attack the enemy?
The initial sniper team should be replaced with an engineering team
Don’t let those cannon fodder change jobs and become monkeys
They must first learn to be workers and use a truly useful sniper rifle (anti-tank fortification)
When I first started a couple years ago, I did a lot of sniping because it was way easier to get kills when you suck with bolt action rifles, but gave that up as I climbed the ladder and with smg’s, machine guns and semi auto rifles, it wasn’t as much fun. Plus, the higher level you get the harder it is to just sit back and get sniper kills like you do at the lower levels, at least for me anyway. The only time I snipe is if one of my daily goals is to kill 30 to 50 people with a bolt action rifle, so I will use two squads that have 3 snipers each till I get the required level, then I change those squads for my usual squads. But personally, I don’t have a problem with guys sniping…It pisses me off when I’m playing and the sniping bastard gets two of my squads, but eventually I get him. 
I guess instead of making it a death match with the sniper, I could go another way. 
BTW, when I am required to use a bolt action rifle, or snipe to meet daily goals, I do it in BR 1-3.

you do realize by saying “ALL sniper rifle” this mean the FG and STG version would have to be BR3 as well?
overall i would say maybe lower the semi version to BR3 but not the auto for obvious reason
Notice the + in the Tier 3+?
well i am blind so i didnt, thank for pointing that out

You think a bolt action five mag sniper should be tier 3, the trouble is you would not have enough tiers for the spread, you would by default render a large number of sniper rifles obsolete when they could easily use stronger weapons
Spot on. 
Just remove objectives instead.
Sometimes I let my Filipina girlfriends son play a game or two. He really has no experience playing online, so he doesn’t know anything about objectives. He just runs around aimlessly trying to shoot people while I keep telling him what his objectives are. He just ignores me.
