The Ebola Vaccine(s) (Snipers)

I do actually support adding a new tag for no snipers.

Pretty much the only con of nerfing snipers
A handful of people saying they'll quit because of the nerf and a week later end up no-lifing the game again (yes fox i'm talking to you).

or it could ruin a good style of gameplay.
i hope that isnt the only legit con.
slightly leaning towards that suggestion forcing players to go 2x sg

It's not a solution to the actual problem; the sniper its stats.

So what if the damage gets lowered a bit and most damage of it goes to AP and a few to HP? '-'

make snipers 1 hit kill like real snipers

Pretty much all weapons work that way already. First most of your AP goes down and a bit of your HP, then all of your HP once you're out of AP.

If we add such roomtag, I'm pretty sure it will be used in almost every room.
But like I said, we're not going to add any roomtags anymore in preparation for v8.

The fact that you know it will be used in nearly every room should be more than enough for you to understand that something needs to be done.
I'm personally leaning towards the HP/AP reduction.

don't know how you guys could fix snipers then. roomtags was perhaps the only suggestion that would have been feasible;

-it gives the players an option as to whether or not they'd utilize the tag or not
-it doesn't change the entire mechanism of snipers
-it's simple to add
-there's already [SGO], [SNO], [EX] which limit certain play-styles. adding [NSNO] wouldn't be different to those tags.
-would satisfy 70% of this server
-wouldn't cause a sea of salty children to cry and threaten to "quit the server"
-i love u dave

i honestly can't even think of a single disadvantage.

also, i'm not being biased. i've used 600 coins on donation snipers, i've used them quite a lot in the past but honestly, it's getting out of hand how overpowered they are.

the snipers are still op just because you can just wear a spray for the 2nd weapon and if you hit the 1st time with the sniper you can just spray the other person to death since he only has 70 hp left.
