    I just thought of something.
    Maybe make it so that the cool down is increased when you use it at close range.

    so i guess my complaint can be taken as serious since i main a sniper and have never used frost. your broad brush paints a crummy picture.

    by definition: "a sniper rifle is a long range tactical precision rifle"......... long. range. <--- key words. if you and a person with a shotgun (carronade) are 10ft from each other, then the shotgun (carronade) user should win every time and you have positioned yourself incorrectly. your logic is flawed. when was the last time you hip-fired a rifle accurately?

    My friend!! in close range,Carronade wins in Game too.Constant 800-900 damage by a Rare T5 Carro in 5 secs vs 55% Non crit hits(45% max crit chancd)You do the math.On top that the turret and speed debuff.

    I have a Finnish Law Enforcement Sniper rifle called a Tikka T3 Tactical chambered in .308. Yeah it's a "long, range tactical precision rifile" but i guarantee you, if I put a round in you from 10' away center mass, you're going to be late for dinner.

    Here's what the rifle looks like in case anybody was wondering. She's a beauty and that massive muzzle break... amazing.

    Can I borrow that for deer season?

    On the subject of sniper rifles and Finland, let's all take a moment to remember a Finnish war veteran who, like the Sniper Cannon, had the opposition attempt to "nerf" him repeatedly,

    I'm not usually salty, but here goes:
    If we are going by this logic, then carronade is a shot-gun. Irl, shot-guns are lethal further than grenades. So give carronade +10 projectiles, range 1 and 1/2 that of grenade, and make it twice as lethal as sniper.

    Simple. :)
    (I've shot many shot-gun, I live in the PA woods.)

    I have been hunting for 7 years, I have only shot 1 deer, their sense of smell, speed, eyesight, all super good. Unless, of course, they are a mutant species found only where I live.

    This season was a light season, only about 10 times. And I live, and hunt, on the Earth.
