Snipers and other fast ttk weapons will be a 'problem' until dedicated servers solve latancy issues.
You are going to get wrecked if you are 200ms+ behind a similarly skilled player with a sniper, shotty, or other.
Hosts are crispy. I remember how awful it was playing Shotguns on Halo 2 against host.

dedicated servers will not solve the latency issues unfortunately but will help with some degree.. check BF4 ..they have DS and you can still get LAG. The problem is in the net code; they don't know what they are doing; they need some skills in coding. can't wait for Titanfall2 ..:)

I should have mentioned netcode. I agree.

Yesterday I watched each match of mine and looked at profiles for players that seemed "skewed" due to networking issues. Quite a few time I was destroyed by players due to global matchmaking. I know when I lose a gun battle vs. skill and or vs. latency. If in NA like me, it is very difficult to play vs. Europe, Asia, or South America. If those players host, it is terrible. Probably great fun for them however.
