I was playing this map and the red team had the snipers. When we came to the central part we always died. And they had unlimited ammo because they were camping where the snipe guns will spawn again. Well we killed them once by getting a warthog and shoot 2 rockets but we lost anyway. It's like they hack we all charge to their base to get the flag but in 7 seconds we all die, even we had the rocket launcher. Isn't sniper too cheaty?

1) Every weapon is balanced. Make them use out their sniper ammo and run while theyre reloading

2) get up to where they are. If they got up there, so can you.

3) Use distractions, visual shields, everything. Flamethrowers are good visual shields. Grenades provide distractions.

4) Use that rocket launcher. Splash damage works...shoot the wall above them to cause a world of pain...

depends. is this a halo 2 CE map? 'cos then there is something cheaty about it......
but otherwise the sniper is a good weapon, and isn't cheap at all, because of the level of skill it requires.
