sniping kills on everyone in the map doesnt show any form of skill... it just shows you are a wuss and dont want to get into anyones face :)
Um...what??? I know I'm new here and all, but I had to say something about this...I'm a sniper kind of guy, always have been. And I'm no wuss; I get in there and slog it out with my trusty shotgun just like everyone else. Sniping is indeed a skilled act; to some, it is an artform. Knowing that all you have to do is find that one spot, that one moment, where you can 'reach out and touch someone' and hear their curses from the other side of the room...it's wonderful, man. And you have to be pretty skilled to do it right - are you telling me that getting four headshots per clip isn't skilled? I think something's wrong with that statement.

although sometimes it is neccessary
You saved yourself with that statement, though I must point out that most of the best SpecOps units always have a trained sniper with them on field missions. Necessary, and useful.
Now, staying on topic here...
My idea: A dome sort of thing, like the 'Battle Arena' from Armored Core 2. Here's your spawn point with a big wall around it, all the weapons you want inside this wall. Outside the wall? Nothing but the sides of the area. Flat plain. Just you, your enemy, and the cheery whistle of bullets as they fly past. Up top there's a circular catwalk where you may find sniper rifles (only two of them) and ammo...ah. A slice of killtacular heaven.
