One-Shot Kills: only snipers can be OSK'd
|
|
Here, let's turn the one-shot kill debate around. Let's say this. Snipers are at the same level of damage as in PS1. No one-shot kills from them.
However, due to the weight and complexity of their sniper rifle, they can only carry let's see, zero armor. Anyone in the game can kill a sniper with one bullet from any weapon, one stab from a knife on regular mode, in fact any contact with any weapon.
So, snipers are the same level of power. However, to achieve their ability to strike from such long distances, THEY are the ones, the ONLY ones who can be instagibbed with one shot.
Yes, I believe that that balances the whole sniper issue perfectly. Since snipers seem to be in such mad lust with the idea of one-shot kills, then, yes, let them be the ones who are the only ones who can be OSK'd, from any distance, by any weapon.
The fact that they could snipe from afar in PS1 was completely unbalanced by the fact that they could wear RExo and have an HA weapon for backup up close. Nay. Unbalanced.
Balance is making them as fragile as a cellulose balloon in order to have the vaunted ability to strike from afar.
