And what if you can't due to the fact your Infantry building was destroyed? Sure, provided you get close enough, Soldiers can widdle away a Sniper's health, but as I said. . . If you can get close enough.

Use my tactic:
Step 1: Find Sniper.
Step 2: Find Best Hiding Locations In Between Current Location And Desired Location.
Step 3: Jump, Crouch, Run, And Hide While Going To Desired Location.
Step 4: If Step 3 Didnt Work, Try A Differant Direction.

Eh, that generally only works if your Ping isn't over, say. . . 150. I find that Snipers seem to have a tremendously easy time picking me off, no matter where I am(out in the open), if I'm lagging like Hell. Some of the shots I've taken are unbelievable and probably unreplicatable under normal circumstances. And then there's that irritating semi-exploit where Snipers can shoot around corners. Like. . . Through solid walls, even. Or at least that's what it always seems like. I know Snipers have an easy time getting me in the tunnels, or even near the wide base entrances on Field. . .

Heres another tactic:
Fire a Grenade Launcher/Flamethrower constantly at the Sniper if you can find him, and jump/run to your destination.

Best tactic is to use a hack to kick the sniper out of the game.

If he returns, repeat the procedure.

That way, one rids himself of snipers in a typical renegame.

Were talking about how to do so without cheating, Fox.

its not cheating, its hacking.. Tell Me

but still, best way to fend off aggressive snipers is to get behind them with a shotgun...a few shots to the head and they will be well and truly dead, but if they spot u first then unless your a brilliant shot with a pistol or they are useless then you are dead...

That doesn't quite work in Hourglass or maps where there aren't multiple routes to sniper camp sites. In Field, there's lots of oppurtunity to counter snipers. And Walls. Even Under, to a degree.(But really, how many people actually actively snipe on Under? There's a hill and a cliffside, and that's it. Everything else is base defense.) But Hourglass and a few other maps? You just can't "sneak up" on them.

I would love to see you ingame with my sniper rifle in hand. Shotgunners can't do a whole lot when theres sufficient space in between them and the sniper.

I can't believe you're such an asshat that you'd even think of that, cyberp-- I mean, flyingfox.

The best way to deal with snipers is to use your own, get an APC, or be sneaky with shotgunners if that's all you've got.
