Snipers on big maps SUCKS. Whenever I get a kill, I'm like, "eh, that was kinda fun, but I was so far away that my enemy had virtually no way of avoiding death." And when I die, I'm like, "that guy was so far away! He was practically invisible! How am I supposed kill someone that I can't possibly see?"
In short, it turns the game into [two players scan the map, and the luckier player who sees his enemy first gets the kill]
exactly why I hate BTB Snipers.
It shouldn't have anything to do with luck at all, and the scenario described isn't luck-dependent. The goal of long-range sniping is to have better stealth, better sights, and better reaction time than your enemy. If you got sniped it's because your spot wasn't good enough.
Get a nice kill on someone? Move! As soon as you fire one shot, your position is pretty much compromised. If you got the kill, awesome, if not, move on and catch them while they're still trying to exactly find where you WERE.
