    In a game like this, I would prefer there not to be snipers. It just kind of ruins the experience. But that's just me.

    Bolt-action rifles without scopes is more likely. People would just camp a sniper perch all day and wait for people to pick off for supplies.

    Imagine the spawning area, it would be the equivalent to Duck Hunting or a shooting gallery where fresh spawns are the moving targets....

    yeah maybe like a .308 bolt action that takes 2 hits to down, MAYBE with an 8x scope but no more than that.

    No... because people would just sit in their base sniping people from afar. If they added it in some way, they should just make it super expensive to create.

    The reason snipers worked (I guess) in DayZ was the intense bullet drop, and the fact that the game's controls were so finicky it actually made it so you had to practice with the sniper a little to get used to everything. Range finder was also really helpful.

    Rust has no bullet drop, they just have "range" which is the gun's effective range where the bullets still do damage. But it doesn't mean that people aren't aiming at the person. There's no gun sway, "CoD" type breathing system, or bullet drop to make sniping a hard enough challenge.

    People already slap holos and lasers onto the M4s and that's enough to kill from a decent range. Imagine seeing across the whole field you're in and putting a bullet through someone's skull.

    The sniping would most likely be the closest to Counter-Strike's sniping. Recoil is the only thing you have to worry about when aiming, otherwise the bullet goes where you aim.

    I think it's not a good idea to place sniper in this game, I think the game need a bow and not a sniper.

    This.....wood + metal fragment = bow and arrows. And you can pick up and arrows (if you find them)

    I honestly hope to never see a sniper in this game, if there is a sniper rifle, no scope....
    or the damage so minimal that it is pitiful..
    thats just my opinion anyway.

    What we REALLY need is a knife with a x64 scope. Oh, and boxing gloves with auto-aim.

    A sniper in alpha and how the maps look right now, no? Simply because there are not enough trees, shrubs, nothing but open land, it'd be too easy just to sit in a tower and snipe. But if they were to add more hills, trees, high grass, bushes, either erratic or in a large mass (making a forest) then I'd say we should have a sniper. But how the maps are laid out right now, I could see people just camping and sniping.

    I can't play DayZ because of damn snipers on hills 1km away, don't let it plauge rust as well. You'll also get all the little kiddies uploading 360 no-scope videos.

    I really hope they never add sniper rifles. Sniping adds another element to gameplay, but it also hurts CQC, especially in a game where open fields are more prevalent than any kind of cover. Sniping is just too easy to do and not easy enough to counter.

    Crossbow with 8x scope, insane arrow drop and 2 hit kill? I think that would be awesome!
