    Epiclight, you missed something:
    While the sniper isn't powerfull against, say, a mammoth tank compared to the amount of health he has. The sniper does gain a TREMENDOUS amount of points for just shooting at it. So even while you might not be able to destroy the tank, you usually get enough points to make up for the losses you will sustain.

    Yours sincerely,

    Well they already said they were fixing that. :P
  2. Well maybe if sniper was not jack-of-all killing he would not be so popular.

    Here let me make it more clear.

    Sniper is effective VS RED

    Sniper is useless VS GREEN

    Unable to actually do shit about a sniper even tho they aren't easily killed by them. *

    Infantry(ALL TYPES)

    Humvee/Buggy

    MRLS/Artillery

    *APC

    *Light Tank

    *Medium Tank

    *Flame Tank

    *Mammoth Tank

    VTOL/Apache

    Flying Coffin

    So out of EVERYTHING in the game, that is a total of 5 units that are not easily killed by a sniper, and they are the ones that are useless to get rid of a sniper that's not stupid enough to run right at them.

  3. Lets take a look at what SHOULD be used as anti-aircraft.

    Ravishaw/PIC

    Rawket lauwnchair

    MRLS(Mobile SAM site FFS!)

    Anything with a machine gun.

    The problem is snipers are TOO VERSATILE!

    Have you ever heard of a hard counter? The only one for a sniper currently is a tank.

    A tank that can not go fast, easily avoided by anyone not retarded.

    A tank can not go to the high places like a helicopter.

    AS-IS The only thing you can do once a 2-3 snipers get in the usual spot on a a map is to kill them with another sniper, or suicide your helicoptor to hopefully make it close enough.

  4. I had a cool idea!

    Lets say your the last tech/hotty on your team, hand/bar is destroyed. So your enjoying yourself then FUCK YOU! Connection to server was lost!

    For whatever reason.

    So you come back and, even tho you stayed alive. Now you don't get to mine anymore.

    So how about if you lose connection to a server and you re-join that game within 3-5 minutes you will spawn as the character you were?

  5. I think it is BS when you join a game, the team you get stuck on only has 1 building left, like the PP, then you lose place on the laddar.

    I mean how were you supposed to do anything?

    If you join in the middle of a game I think you should not lose rank but you cannot gain any.

    IDK

  6. Ok I am asking you to HEAR ME OUT. I have 6 GOOD reasons sniper VS light vehicle damage should be reduced. I bet you can't think of more then 3 that it should not. because it is how Renegade is doesn't count

    1) It is total bullshit, snipers can shoot you from across the map and you can not do SHIT but try to avoid them. Kind of hard when your supposed to be IN THE AIR.

    2) Snipers make up most of the non-free infantry population in any given server. (the rest is SBH/tech/hotties)

    3) Snipers are already powerful enough VS just other infantry, why make one class so versatile?

    4) If someone wants to kill vehicles they should be playing Ravishaw or PIC. NOT SNIPER.

    5) With snipers out of the picture the tranny chopper would be considered a part of the game by more players.

    6) Aircraft were added in a hurry AFTER Renegades initial release. I doubt they had time to fully test and balance them before EA forced it out the door.

    ALSO.

    The apache/orca need to have machine gun VS armor damage reduced.

    Why is it that useing a machine gun to kill a tank is better then useing missiles?

    Yes I know that Renegade is the way it is, but the fact is Westwood was never really finished with the game! It was pushed out the door too soon so they had to cut all kinds of corners, aircraft weren't even in the game originally and were added in a patch, before they had time to truely balance everything out it was too too late.

    Do you honestly think they wanted flame's to go right through the wall?

    Damage to go through walls?

    Me to make threads because I don't want this mod ruined by SNIPERS.

    A CARBON COPY IS NOT THE CORRECT WAY TO REMAKE A GAME.

    Srsly.

    Changing things is not the end of the fucking world.

    .............................................. the game ...........................................

    IN B4 "LOL WERE KEEPING EVERYTHING JUST HOW IT WAS! IT WAS TOTALLY BALANCE U N00B!1"

    SNIPERS ARE SUPPOSED TO SHOOT D00DZ NOT HELICOPTORS!11!1ONE!11!1

    I never even buy helicopters because snipers are such a problem you can't even fly out of the base before getting killed usually.

    Price stays, the reason why it did not double was because the nuke would be a team's last hope if most of the buildings were destroyed. Many times has my clan made ridiculous comebacks with only one building left. If it doubled in price, such cohesive comebacks would be impossible.[/b]


    It was the HON rite?

    You SBH'ded your way in to GDI base and pedistal'd it.
