It already has night vision...

And the increased magazine would destroy the balance the weapon already has with the game.

Bigger clip, different looking(not so black either) and silenced is all I want. I don't think we need thermal, night vision is enough.

The sniper is loud to balance the gameplay cos u may not see the trail but you definately want to hear it. Anyway most snipers are not silenced. Especially the more powerful ones.

Just make it balanced for Halo 2, whether that means larger or smaller clip and harder or softer punch. Just making the clip bigger because you think the sniper is so badass is just plain dumb (sorry), you know it's going to screw with the balance if not done right.

Same goes for most of the suggestions made for Halo 2 in general, people don't think about the effect that it will have. And then that's exactly the people who will be moaning about how the game is unbalanced.

Sorry, just had to say that.

bah

It is silenced (at least in multi). And the clip size is just fine. If you can't kill someone with 4 shots...

I hate everything, but it's not my fault.

A bigger clip, silenced and thermal would make the sniper an unstoppable killing machine.

The sniper rifle only has 4 rounds for the same reason the rocket launcher only has 2. It's all about balance. The balance of weapons is a pretty delicate thing. If you gave the sniper rifle a 10 round clip, you'd unbalance the game as much as if you gave the shotgun the same effective range of the assault rifle, and then the game would never be as good as it is. More isn't always better.

A bigger clip would make H2 like R63 if you know what I mean.
