ZH#2 Sniper Free Please?
« on: December 18, 2010, 07:37:55 AM »
Hello,

Most of you are probably aware of my dislike for snipers due to their affect on zombie behavior and have made posts in the past regarding it.

Could ZH#2 be made so that it is sniper rifle free/restricted please?  Those that enjoy sniping (or see nothing wrong with sniper rifles) can go to ZH#1 and those like myself that detest it can now have an alternative with ZH#2.

All it takes is one sniper to ruin a game for a lot of people.

Again this suggestion is only for ZH#2 for those that see nothing wrong with snipers.

Thank you for your consideration!

Wolf of God

I like the idea too, because I'm another one that doesn't like sniper rifles too much. My main dislike is for the autos because I think they are cheap, but I have never had a problem with the scout, or awp in ZH. ;D

the awp and auto

i like your suggestion wolf....k, i love sniping, and i think sniper rifles only affect the zombies if the sniper rifle stays scoped in....line of sight, the zombies stay away from a snipers line of sight, butt, at the same time, when i have my deagle out, or im not scoped in, the zombies keep commin....i just love to snipe zombies sometimes..sometimes i like to go assault and take em on a chase...or be a medic and heal the front lines...or be support and be the front lines...i like to do eeet allllllllll  :o  :o  :o  :P

I think the snipers should stay, the zombies only flee if you are zoomed in with the sniper.
I'm going to get up in a minute and walk out of here. That guy in corner behind me, will follow. You follow him. I will follow you. Remember! I've trained for this kind of follow-thing my whole life. So don't fuck it up!!

I don't mind snipers as long as they know to only scope in when drawing a bead.

This is one of those things that sound better in theory than it is in reality.  The reality is that people do in fact stay zoomed in and while you can talk 4 guys into pulling their pistols out, the 5th guy will not do it for a variety of reasons.

First and foremost, there is an issue with snipers slowing down the game, to say otherwise, will not be completely honest. 

Secondly, there are many regulars like myself that play on NOTD servers that do not like snipers (their affect on the gaming), so why deny their requests since it is not hurting anyone, snipers can snipe to their hearts delight on ZH#1.

Third per Death's suggestion, if not remove the sniper class altogether, why not at least remove the auto-snipers because it is a magnet for people that could care less about teamwork and only care about their score.

I just do not understand why there would be a resistance to this request given that the problem does exist.  This way, nothing will change for those that enjoy sniping since ZH#1 will be there, but now, there will be a server (ZH#2) available for those of us that can enjoy a different gaming experience.

I do not consider this request to be unfair so I hope before shooting down this request by simply stating that there is no issues with snipers, it would be nice if you provided a more detailed rationale stating the reasons why this request is not feasible, or unfair, or too difficult to implement. or whatever the reason may be, to keep snipers on ZH#2.

This requests "hurts" no one, keeping the status quo does "hurt" some.

Thank you,

Wolf of God

Well snipers keeping zombies away is also a good thing if we are getting rushed by wave after wave of them. It would keep them at bay while we regroup and heal up.

Again thats all great and you can do that on ZH#1. 

Please tell me why this has to be done on ZH#2 as well?
