No, using scout rifles do not count.
Some folks may rejoice at this, I know a lot of folks back in D1 who despised snipers (usually shotgun warriors, I too grew frustrated by snipers as I made the switch to more aggressive play)
Not sure if its map design, the incredible amount of flinch, limited chances to practice (due to snipers being power weapons) or a combination of the above.
Snipers seem to be a dead or dying breed in the current meta, which is kind of a shame since I really enjoyed it in D1.
While I am having fun playing hyper aggressive with side arms, SMG's and auto rifles, there are times where I would like to sit back and cover a lane with a sniper rifle.
I don't think I've ever been killed by a sniper since the start of D2.
Granted, for how much work you have to put into using a sniper rifle, I can understand why most folks gravitate to easier weapons that can be just as effective if not more so.
Anyone else miss using snipers in PvP?

Editado por spartanx169x: 10/25/2017 9:53:41 PMFor the most part I despise sniping. I don't consider it hard for somebody to find a lane to camp and wait for somebody to come along into the lane and then shoot them. That crap happens in Battlefield 1. When I get sniped there, I make it my personal mission to get to them and execute them and take their dogtags if somebody else doesn't do it first. And if they really irritate me I will teabag them for good measure and as a general rule I don't teabag. But snipers are the exception. Oh not seeing people sniping in D2 in PvP has actually been one of the bright sides of it.
