"If something is easy, broken, cheap or can be abused, majority of the population will support it as a legit and or skilled concept/idea. Whatever people like and or love, they will thrive on it because no matter how broken it maybe, they do not like change."

In an objective match where there is the options of

Sprint
Evade
Active Camo
Hologram

and your teammate uses Evade or Sprint to grab the Sniper Rifle, you immediately think...

What is your first thoughts?

he better not waste the ammo. i don't care what AA he uses, doesn't improve your aim

  • 01.06.2012 1:39 PM PDT

Now day...wait...nvm i'm tired.

Well guess it all depends on the map, if they run straight into the together group and not pick them off then I think they are pretty stupid.

You're either first or you're last.

You'll never amount to anything, go back under your bridge.

"Oh, he's going to be active with the sniper and not camp and stat whore with active camo"

Is the player good? If so I wouldn't care and I would go for the next power weapon.

Never, ever melee attack a hunter from behind, just don't.

Oh noes! Betrayel imminent!

I wish him all the best.

For The Lulz is a worthier cause than For The Win.

From the skies to the ground, I'm the one that'll reign destruction down on you from behind the wheel and the flight stick. Keep your eyes on the rear view mirror, or you may be eating exhaust aside the road, riddled with holes.

My sniper is hungry for souls.

If at first you fail, fail again so that you succeed by wrapping your fail around the continuum into the win zone.

Well, typically, a player who uses sprint or evade is more active. A player who uses active camo or hologram is prone to camping. A camping sniper is less effective because people will figure out where he is, and he'll usually pick a spot that doesn't help out the team much because he's more worried about his K/D than winning. A field sniper is far more effective and usually moves up with the team, acting as a support role and and a good force multiplier. Of course, this isn't a rule. Plenty a camping sniper has helped the team. Generally speaking, though, I put more faith in sprint/evade users than active camo/hologram users.

But LolHologram. It's really quite useless. Especially if you're a sniper that's camping. In fact, it gives away your position, seeing as how a hologram runs in a straight line.

(if he's okay/good/excellent, and I know it) Good luck, man.

(if he's bad, and I know it) This is gonna suck...

(if I don't know at all) Good luck, man.

I like your thoughts, well written.
I've seen some deceptive use of the Holograms in some matches last year.

Depends how good the player is.

Ooh, I love those people, the ones who decide to throw everything and the kitchen sink at you, as if an M16 does anything to a T-90. Oh, MLG player with noobtube instead? Congrats! You blew off one of my ablative plates!

Gun, meet Bad Guy.
Bad Guy, this is Gun.

Meh, I wasn't going to use it anyway.

What a bad ass.

If I start thinking, "Where the hell is our sniper at!?" during the game because he's sucking, then I'll try to start getting the sniper for myself.

Baton courtesy; service with a smile

everyone knows when you are sniping never stay in one spot for too long....relocate....thanks to the movie enemies at the gate...i know this too be a brilliant idea

Whats wrong with using evade or sprint? If he's good, it means he doesn't need camo to be good. If he's bad, doubt AC would have helped him anyway.

Life is a journey, if you spend all of it with your nose in your map, you may miss some of the best parts.

I hope he/she doesn't snipe me.
