should also be noted that the guys who are the best snipers don't always whore the sniper rifle. lots of them are great all around players and spend a lot of in-game time with other weapons.
best one i've played with is ANTILOPE, although Skater X is also pretty good with it. ANTILOPE (his tag is all caps) is one of those guys who can pick up the sniper rifle on offense in Headlog CTF or Assault games and actually help you win. being an effective sniper on offense in those game/match pairings is hard. lots of guys grab the rifle and start banging out shots from where they picked it up at, without doing anything at all except maybe getting a couple kills that result in defenders respawning at the base knowing where the offense is coming from. when ANTILOPE picks it up, he holds off on killing until the rest of us are at the base, and we start pulling guys out of the building--basically get them impatient so they come out in the open and he will literally drop head shots on guys who are charging/dancing and right next to teammates--without ever killing his own team. i've seen him clear out four guys we've suckered out on the crate-side walkway in a row--they came out as a group they all died before they could get back inside.
he's insane.
