To make the squad at least useful, most squad got pair of them. It’s about time for “snipers” get their second engineer.
Might aswell increase their squad size to 6 men
The point of Sniper squads is to play with more snipers. Might as well play with an Engineer Squad.
Personal, i would make they abble to use One Engenier AND one medic. so you ablle to have a lot of suplys inside a tall apartament and shoot for a LONG LONG time.
Level 1 paratrooper navy seal commando sniper dont understand this concept, all they want is cycle sniper squad and be elite paratrooper navy seal commando sniper.
Yep, just like MG team with 3x snipers, 2x engineers, and 1x AT
If you want to shoot for a long time, then snipers really need a “NO KILL CAM” perk.
Id hazard just even a bonus where your not highlighted in the kill cam, though ngl it is funny how AI will suddenly fire accurately at 200m+ if you get a near miss on them with a sniper.
What they should do is give Snipers a unique building. They could have a tower
I feel like a sniper Squads should be smaller, But tougher (lots or perk points).
You want an element of stealth as a sniper, too many AI squaddies ruin that
Snipers need some more uniqueness in perks/abilities
You can just carry 3 men if you want but expanded squad capability wont hurt a bit
A ladder or camo netting seems more practical, a tower is just asking to be a bullet magnet
Snipers are affective in Enlisted until they shoot someone, then no matter how much camo the sniper has, you know exactly where he is because DF shows you his position. A sniper might get my whole squad, but unless he moves, I will usually get him with my next squad since I know his position. Same with Tanks, you can sit as far back in the grey zone as you want, but as soon as you take out my squad, my next squad is my dive bomber and your usually toast.
As far as adding an engineer to sniper squads, I am neither hot or cold to the idea. I have most of my sniper squads in higher levels because I use them as an assault squad and use the sniper gun as a backup. Other then that, I have one sniper squad in level one Allies and Soviets, and only really use them on certain maps, or if one of my daily goals is to kill X amount of people with a bolt action rifle.
they could give snipers vitality, I find it silly that rifle men are allowed to one hit kill snipers at long range, but snipers arent.
Snipers deserve some kind of a buff for sure.
I mostly engineer, tank, and cap points in this game. When I’m in the mood, I sometimes snipe. There’s nothing more annoying than getting killed by the gray zone when a sector shuts down and you don’t have time to get out—especially when it takes a great deal of time to develop a proper sniping position. Then, you have to start all over again.
Personally, I think they should open up the entire map and almost completely get rid of the gray zone. Then all classes in the game could implement proper strategy & tactics. The best solution would be to minimize the gray zone to a much smaller area to allow players to spawn in safely, and to also make them invisible to the enemy when they spawn in. This would help to prevent spawn camping—but also open up the maps for betting game play.
I also believe they should increase the number of players on each team to 15 or 20. Only 10 players per side just isn’t enough, especially when some of them are bot teams.
Furthermore, there should be a perk for snipers to preserve their position: No kill cam! Or, a kill cam that will give the general direction of the sniper’s position and not outline his body and exact position. It can take a long time to develop a good sniping position just to have it ruined by the first person you kill. It’s unreasonable for snipers to have to constantly move their position after each kill to preserve a hidden position. Before kill cams were a thing, locating and hunting down a sniper was a skill that you needed to develop—not to mention the satisfaction (and fun) it was to hunt them down. Then kill cams came along and made everybody lazy and stupid—and completely ruined the sniper class. Just my opinion.
