Well, after I get fed up with snipers I sneak to where they are with a machine gun and mow 'um down. It's a very practical strategy when implemented correctly.
Solution for too many online snipers.

why? that's one of the easier games to get a sniper.GamesB2 said:
if you are a medic or assault: burst fire will make the gun very accurate
if you a demo man: destroy the building/area.
if you a sniper: sort of hypocritical...
most maps have more than one path to the objective, so try to be sneaky. Or get a tank/helicopter
although i have got a head shot on the gunner then driver of a black hawk at +250 score (i was SO happy)
Well I assume they complain because they get killed a lot... I've never found a problem with them... snipers are generally easy to kill. Other people have problems.mb16 said:
I think placing a restriction on the number of people using the same class in each game might be a better idea.
Or maybe people could design lobbies like they did in Graw 2 (a system that I love), and allow the host to customize the game to his/her heart's desire.

I never had any sniper problems, besides the ones in MW2 who run around with the Intervention and quick-scoping everyone at point blank range.
There is no real "solution". Your idea is good, it's just that the sniper is there for the tactical level It adds to games. The problem is that people learn to effective use such a high range and often high power weapon without using the cumbersome scope, making it abusable. Not to add more praise too It but TF2 changing their rifle to gain power with scoping over time solved that for the most part.
I knew there was a sniper infestation, but there's also a spray and prey and a light machinegunner infestation.. I hate automatics more than ANY kind of sniper, because snipers need time. Automatics don't.
Myself, I am a shotgunner ^^ cheap, and a effective.

On BFBC2, they actually tend to be a problem, atleast in Rush mode. Now the game type is about advancing as an attacker and defending spots as a defender. I fail to see how an attacking team full of snipers is of any use. I mean you can shoot the enemy team, but since defenders have infinite spawns and the attackers don't, you'll eventually lose those lives. The only way to get more lives is by destroying positions. And destroying spots can be difficult if nobody is doing it, but instead sitting on their asses spawnkilling random enemies. So yes, snipers can be a problem, but mainly to your own team.dathwampeer said:
Why would anyone want to play no snipers? I can understand no killstreaks, or no explosives, but snipers? Really? Sniping is usually the only thing in FPS games that takes any amount of actual skill.
