So, as suggested by ripley, here's a poll to see everyone's opinion about the SR. I copied the reason for this poll from another topic I made, so here it is:
Hello there guys, I'm not sure anyone's complained about it but I'll post it anyway...I think the player limit for the sniper rifle should be lowered a bit, maybe to 10 or 8 players instead of 12. The main reason for that is the bunker raping. Many times I've joined the game, spawned at D3 and the bunker was being watched by enemies on hills and rooftops with scars and sniper scopes, and as they get a clear view of the bunker, an easy and quick solution is necessary to get them so the sniper rifle would be the perfect weapon for such situations.
Usually I kill one or nobody and end up dead anyway, even if I watch the sniper's position. Many players leave because of bunker raping as well and while I understand we can spawn somewhere else, I find it unnecessary specially if there is a proper gun for the job and we have nowhere else to spawn, other than the base. I don't think people would abuse it in a match with few players, as they're probably not going to see anyone for a while and get bored. Usually when there's a bunker problem the game is either 4vs5 or 5vs5, which means that because of 2 players we can't get the weapon. It's just a suggestion anyway, I think most, if not all rules are quite fair and still keep it as one of the best places to play.
I understand that some of you guys might get annoyed by snipers shooting you from some random hill when you're trying to play your game in peace but I believe getting raped by scar snipers is far worse. Snipers can be easily taken out by anyone with a sniper rifle, usually in less than 2 seconds after he shot you so I guess it shouldn't be much of a problem for those who can handle a sniper rifle properly, as the regular snipers we see nearly always have bad aim and give us plenty of time to aim at their head. If it's necessary, I can give tips and training to anyone interested (even though there's not much to it really). Also on a side note, this is mostly a problem when playing at night, when usually there's 11 players or less, sometimes with unbalanced teams.
Thanks for your time
