Camping snipers are CANCER (play the d*mn objetive)

First I’d like to say this isn’t a game issue (nothing needs to be changed), but rather a “player culture” thing, but the main reason you lose matches in Enlisted seems to be because of this.

Idiots who stay the entire game 100+ meters behind point trying to “snipe”… and they don’t move, even if the point is totally empty and the enemy is taking it. They just watch it, and then move 100m behind the next point to keep sniping. They always finish the game with 20 kills or something… and a defeated team. Sometimes you have 3 or 4 people from your team doing this at the same time. This is CANCER. Sniping may be fun, but if you don’t want to play the objective, then go play a single player game!

And don’t let there be a tower or some other “vantage point”… I just played a game on Ruins of Vaux map, attacking. After we took the 2nd point, literally the entire team (8 people) crammed on that f**king church tower and camped there for the rest of the match. I got almost 400 kills, but lost the game because no one helped capture the objective.

This is an issue both for attacking and defending teams. On the Kroll Opera House map, I had a match where (attacking) enemies were so fixated with getting to the vantage point on the 3rd floor of the Opera House to snipe, that they just walked past my squad without firing in order to get to the stairs quicker. They killed loads of my teammates, but still lost to that noob team because they didn’t push point.

Enlisted is a brute-force numbers game. Camping to snipe might be a valid strategy at some times, but NOT when the point is not being pushed or is defenseless. When that happens, then please MOVE TO THE DAMN OBJECTIVE and don’t be useless. And don’t build spawns on f**king attics, like a dumbass, because it traps the bots and makes sure you team will lose. And when people call you out and ask you to move, then do it, or shut the fuck up, don’t try to be a smartass and back-talk the people who ask you to play the objective.

Thank you.

I often don’t play the objevtive because dying to explosive spam is a gameplay I don’t enjoy. So untill this changes, I don’t care about the objective.

yeah because there are no explosions in war whatsoever. It’s not like most kills in all conflicts from World War 1 to Ukraine were from artillery (and not even 1% from cowardly snipers). I agree there are a lot of explosion in the game right now, but staying back and getting 20 kills from a match, while making sure your team loses, is just retarded. Play it fully or ditch it, don’t ruin other people’s experience by laying back and playing the game half-assedly

Hey, people playing objectives are dying to the explosions too… or maybe they just find cover instead of sitting in the window like a duck waiting to be shot at.

Suck it up and play the objective.

The number of snipers should be limited, like tanks or aircraft.

Snipers are not the problem, are the bad Snipers wo after half hour the have 20 kill the problem, a good Snipers wo keep pressed the enemy and mark is the best temmate you can ask

Is a playerbase skill problem and this cant be resolved

The current problem is that there are too many snipers. This is a war game. People are always needed on the front line

Yes it is annoying to die from snipers but they aren’t pushing the obj so it makes the match that much easier. Plus people who sit in the back and snipe are trash so they won’t move position after getting the kill making for an easy revenge kill

Sniper are in all game, this is q playerbase problem wo cant be resolved easily, you remove the sniper squad!, them get the mortar or the tank, or the plane, always find a way to camp

I remember the event recently that had a task to do some kills with sniper, I took my sniper teams out of retirement and had the most kills and captures of the match.

Is really as you said, bad players that have no interest on learning the map or positioning and are just a dead weight to their team.

Well if they add some kind of MM or a ranked mode then problem solved for the better players.

I hope for this so sweetlord can play here and we can relax in random

I’m competitive af so a ranked mode would be a blessing. Would solve the majority of the issues with shit players.

I think it can weaken the snipers, make their sight reflect, let players know that there are snipers aiming at themselves, and they can evade or fight back

Blessed word

The mortar shells are easily exhausted, and after they are exhausted, they will have to approach the front line.

Tanks and planes are much better than snipers. A bad sniper’s sense of existence is 0

Dude understand IS A PLAYERBASE PROBLEM how you fix this problem im interested? You upload with a patch skill in all bad player?

Simply go to their spot and burn them.

Yes. I’m talking about the ones in your team.

I fucking hate it when those shit players build rally points on the roofs of buildings, completely fucks the team over if they don’t know it’s on the roof.
