Before all you "snipers" start complaining let me ask, what us the point of a sniper? Precision. Snipers are meant for those with pinpoint accuracy. Aim assist takes that and makes sniping way too cheap. I cant count how many times I've played skirmish with an enemy team full of snipers sitting in one spot landing headshot after headshot. As soon as Aim Assist on snipers go, we will see who the real snipers are.
Also dont use the argument that "snipers take skill" because it doesnt take any skill to sit on the other side of the map aiming down to get a headshot (WITH AIM ASSIST).
Im interested to see what you guys think. Please let me know.
Edit: For those who are claiming "Aim assist will just make skillful snipers better" I just want to go ahead and clarify that my target are people who get lucky with headshots all the time and just sit in the back and watch corners, hence me using the word "Sniper" in quotes. I honestly dont mind if a skillful sniper takes me out without Aim assist, props to them.

If I gave you 3 knifes, one being dull, one decently sharp, and the last sharper than the rest. You would use the decently sharp knife. If I gave you vegetables to cut, you would complain that your knife doesn't work well enough. Then you'd witness someone else pick up the sharpest knife, and utilize it to its best capabilities. Angered that you haven't utilized your resources you demand that the other guy should have to use a dull knife too. That way he doesn't have an edge on anyone. Then when he is given the dull knife, he still utilizes it to it's fullest potential while having more skill. Why use the dull knife when there is a sharp one right there?
