Ozais Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 (edited) i been playing warframe for a bit but one thing that caught my attention was that the game has sniper rifles but not really any where you can use them sure there some maps you can try to snipe but does not feel like sniping to me tho just saying it would be nice to have some tile sets where you really can test your sniping skills to the limit or improve get my drift? and yes ik the DE said that the sniper rifles are getting a buff Edited May 31, 2014 by junkbot2014 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamescell Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 (edited) No ty. You just have to learn how to get kills with snipers quickly, my Vectis usually gets most kills and if not at least most damage. There are some snipers that definitely need buffs, but making a tile set t compensate doesn't sound like a great solution.

Detheroc Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 (edited) Sniper rifles in this game are specifically designed to take out heavy units fast. Not for mass murdering or being MVP in killnumbers. That is, after they receive their long awaited buff. Edited May 31, 2014 by Detheroc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ozais Posted May 31, 2014 Author Share Posted May 31, 2014 my point is that sniper rifles feel like they were made to kill targets from a very far range but the current tile sets do not offer that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ailith Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 (edited) The Corpus outpost tileset is pretty good for sniping (the snowy planet) because it has wide open spaces, but it also really makes you feel like a lone sniper out on a mission, especially with the snow slowly falling. The Grineer shipyard is also decent and gives a bit of the same vibe (though more like a stealth mission), but it's a bit more confined in some places. Really, I'd just like more open level designs instead of Corridor Shooters 'R Us. Edited May 31, 2014 by Ailith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ailith Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 Earth? Earth, despite having large areas, actually has somewhat restricted sniping angles due to all the overgrowth and tunnel pathways for enemies. Still good in some places, but I don't really enjoying sniping there. I'd rather use a mid-range rifle like the Grinlok there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lactamid Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 If that happens I hope Lankas projectile speed gets a buff. While I love the massive proc-lines you can create with it right now on Sechura and other nodes. leading a target that is 200m+ Could get tricky :P (Hitscan ftw i guess) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pandoran_Stallion Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 (edited) Even rescue Corpus Ships have sniping areas that I'm comfortable using; if they could add vents and all those little tweaks it would not only benefit snipers, but also stealth players.

Lactamid Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 then use volts shield Might have to do that. Not the frame I thought I'd use for sniping but perhaps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

--Xalted-LuaGuard-- Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 this whole idea of long range sniping would work well with a stealth update. (hint hint DE) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FirstToLast Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 I get your 'drift' and I don't like it. Both snipers and sniping are fine - except POSvulkar, buff Snipertron. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
