this should probably in the weapons thing, but, well anyway. I think it'd be cool to have a sniper without the tracers, but do something to make it more balanced. something like, make it take 3 shots or something

HWy would a tracer matter if the guy dies instantly? Besides, sometimes a tracer is useful for getting someones attention. Its a neat idea, but i dont think so.

no,no,no, bad idea. several of the snipers on live are so good to the point where when they see you your basically dead. the tracers at least allow a teammate, or other opponent to locate the sniper, otherwise a well concealed sniper could easilly lock down any map that would allow him to do so.

Why? Cuase it gives off your position? Unfortunately that is a problem any sniper has to deal with. One shot and usually any other sniper knows where you are. it isnt a big deal. Its just a way to balance the game. You should be able to protect yourself despite the tracer. If anything i think attracting attention is good because then you get several people running straight at you, giving you clean headshots.

i understand that snipers are powerful. i'm not saying remove the old sniper, just put in a weaker one without the tracer.

i agree, and that is the whole reason for tracers it would be too unbalanced and u cant rebalance that with damage reduction like someone said it is a sniper

If the night vision returned, how would we talk to our team-mates without the other team hearing?

true and with the caliber of bullet the sniper in halo 2 shoots, it should really behave as an anti-material fire arm and do damge to even vihicles...
