Re: First Concepts of "the sniper"
Everyone says first. A snipergun is a gun that has to be long in order to make the bullet go straight and avoid spread. So the first suits best!

Re: First Concepts of "the sniper"
yea...looks more...sniper ? 
This is your first and last meet with my gun... R3ynolds--->Black Wolf.
Re: First Concepts of "the sniper"
For the fun factor, I would say the first gun but with the large curved bayonet from the other two.
Also, can someone please describe what the sniper is? I obviously have a lack of imagination and can not help but think of it as simply being a powered up gun - thats boring!
Unless it is truely something different, I hope the sniper rifle idea gets canned!
Once again, I would much rather see something unique, like the Lightning Gun idea that I keep trying to pimp: http://www.teewars.com/forum/viewtopic. … 2091#p2091

Re: First Concepts of "the sniper"
My guess is that the sniper is a long range weapon with a slow firing rate but where a single shot does a lot of damage. Maybe it will extend how far you can see too?

Re: First Concepts of "the sniper"
If that is the case then ... boring - something like that will only encourage campers. Grab, Hide, Camp and Shoot - I dread it already!
Re: First Concepts of "the sniper"
Now Teewars isn't made for camping, and it's almost impossible to camp in the game. Teewars is a really fast moving game so there's almost no time for standing still, unless you have a death wish.
And it's still a lot easier to storm a dude camping with shotgun or grenade launcher, than it will be to actually camp.

If carrying the snipper increases the players visual range.
If the snipper is medium/high damage.
You might not even see the camper before you die! How do you expect to storm someone you can't see???

Re: First Concepts of "the sniper"
Campers isn´t a problem right now. People running away is. A sniper would provide a one-shot chance too kill a tee getting out of reach for the other waepons. I´d love that.
I was only speculating. Maybe see longer would be a bad idea, but medium/high damage is definitely be a must. Otherways it wouldn´t truly be a sniper, and it would be no different from the pistol except maybe less good

And I'm sure most players would like to keep it that way in future!

One could argue that the chasing Tee should have better movement skills to not lose his/her prey!

Does the game require another pistol (gun)?

Re: First Concepts of "the sniper"
come one munyul ... how easy is it to dodge a shot? u move so fast in tw that aiming is a difficult thing with a sniper.

Re: First Concepts of "the sniper"
i think it would be cool if the sniper has one special... it ignores the armor and do a lot of damage but have a long reload time... and be serious, aiming is not so easy in the game this is my idea for the sniper

I never played UT, so I'll take your word for it. However it would be unique to TW, we already have 3 ranged weapons that deal out basic damage, the LG would have a new (unique) and different effect.
Also, I've played a few tees online that are very good shots! I'd hate to play them when they had a high powered sniper rifle

Yeah, Quake was the original LG, but I thought he might have been referring to the "hopping" effect of the LG!? Quake's LG was a single target hit weapon, does the UT weapon hit multiple targets?

Re: First Concepts of "the sniper"
i think instead of a lightning gun it should be a laser gun... firing red lines of pure light and death 
the sniper should have the same LOS like the other weapons, but it should shoot directly with no bullet-flying-time ^^ to arrange damage with shots been fired it should deal most of the lifes, so that wounded Tees get killed but a healthy Tee survives with 1 or 2 hearts. The gun should be slower than the nate-launcher, but not to slow, so that u can fire at new upcoming enemys after a shot. Thats my opinion the sniper should be
by the way: the sniper-lg is from ut but the lightning-gun itself from quake

One could argue that the chasing Tee should have better movement skills to not lose his/her prey!
One could also argue that running away is easier than chasing, due too rocket properties as well as the shooting while moving thing, which makes chasing very hard if someone is extremely good at running away. Thare´s quite a lot of people who are good at running away.
