this statement confuses me.  the only way I know to get to a keg sniper with a manta is to swing around the scorpion spawn and come from behind.  I don't see a way to get on 'roof' of the main respawn (be it the very top or the one just above the back entrance) without getting seen.  Besides how would you get on there?  swing around the small space between the bridge jump boot column and the main respawn wall?  I'd like to see that tho if you can do it.


lol run up cables and just hop over, its a no brainer..


yea Chris enlightened me.  takes more effort and too spectacular for my tastes.  I'll stick to the old fashioned way.

I don’t mind snipping, its a good weapon to have in your locker if you have it. Of course snipping someone else is always fun, especially if you snipe someone in the head whose up against the wall, there’s just something about seeing blood splatter all over the wall that makes you happy. But i can understand how annoying it is when you get snipped, but that’s part of the game and you have to deal with it.

I know sniping can be annoying but I'd like to say we had some awesome vctf matches on suspense and necropolis the other night... Headhunter is a beast, don't know anyone who has better aim, skiller, zellous and the other guys who played made it 2 games which keep me coming back to ut3. Snipe away :)

I too have become pissed off and hell bent for leather over facing 4 to 6 snipers in a team of 8.  Nobody on the opposing team is running flags, which is the entire purpose of the mode.  If they aren't sniping, they are camping their flag.  So 6 snipers and 2 campers = bastardization of the game.
 
Having said that, Play how you like but I hope you run out of quarters soon...
 
BTW - I think when we see things like this going on, it's a sign of people getting bored with the game.
 
see we fear u aqua on suspense when ur in dat tank. Because if we are in da avril tower  9 times out of 10 a tank bullet is coming for our a$$..lmao..damn u aquaAngry

Snipings fine. even the, so called, abusive ones.
 
While true that Suspense has become the facing world of vctf, it only makes flag running more intense!
 
The other day I made it past a rainstorm of sniper bullets with 19 health left. It felt like I took WAY TOO MANY BULLETS TO BE ALIVE!
 
I was about to score when Aqua blew me away with the tank .... that he brought up from the water!!!
 
I nearly cried.

the poll isn't exactly all that clear.  Sniping in and off itself is fine.  I think this thing came up because there are a few threads where complaints were made about sniping abuses (i.e multiple stationary suspense snipers, controller snipers vs KBM snipers etc.)  the poll questions should be more specific because to generally say sniping sucks would be as practical as saying the stinger, link, flak etc suck.  The very term "Strategic Sniping" itself is coming underfire as some view things dif than others.

It is what it is.  People will do what they like.  we either deal with it or hop out.  More and more often I find myself hopping out.

I would hope ppl don't get mad about the sniper gun since that is what it is for, "sniping".  All that time in instagib didn't help much when it comes to that gun for me

either way I think the only way to get on it is via the cable like chris said.  too much work.  I'd rather swing thru the back as it's easier for me.

You take a manta up the cables.Go to their damage amp side,Hop onto the top of the building and then pancake.LoL


jesus lol.  ok you got me but that's the Spectacular super "make a big splash" way of doing it.  I find it easier to just sweep them from behind (besides I can probably take out a few on the way).  Imagine doing that cable pancake nine times as he suggested.  too much work lol

like ive said befor if someone is good at something, i see no reason for them to not use their talent lol. this started with the thread about headhunter.. then all the talk made someone start this thread. so someone has caused this much trouble for it to be said on a foru and it aint glitching or anything,, so it must mean he is doing something right... causing trouble to the other team.   i got no problem with it. good snipers just gives a challenge. wich is what i (anybody) wants/should want.
