I kinda disagree with you here mate the snipers work, they are used alot, and i get killet all the time bye them, the fackt that they arent a noobgun and used bye evryone makes the game mutch more enjoyable atleast i think so, atleast thoose that doo now howe to use the sniperguns curently ingame are quite good with them.

And ontop off that im not a regular sniper myself, but on some maps were i know sniping is a joy like in mos-espa in the beginning were the imps have to cross som dessert to get to close quarter combat even I can take out 2-4 imps before they get thrue to city.

I'll check the ping next time, that's a possibility. My ping is pretty normal usually, unless the server ping goes beserck, it's happened once or twice.  I have had situations where my ping was high on a peak night like Friday's. I'm pretty good with sniping, it's one of my most used weapons.  There happened to be a large firefight between us stormtroopers and the rebels, and my sniping seemed to not be effective at all (and it's not because I'm a noob in that area either, as I've been sniping well since BF1942).  I think Alpha0278 has a point, ping might be the culprit, I'll keep an eye out for it.

i never normally get a kill from sniping but then again im not very good at it. i have hit the head a few times and not killed somebody though.
