Personally, I feel that both the sniper kit and anti-personnel RPG kit should be limited to just a few pick up kits only per map. I just can't see any standing army fielding as many of these units as we sometimes see on some maps. I've seen entire squads equipped with these and only one support kit spamming ammo. It gets my goat. If Rocket Arena was the game to play, we should have loaded up Quake. [/rant]

/shrug.

Sounds like you haven't seen any good snipers playing. I had a three to four man all sniper squad last night on Dnipro Sunrise and we captured the Power Station and the AA Nest. You can ask your buddy York since we kept capping him and his sqaud while we took the flag from them at the Power Station. While we were doing our sniping thing, I was calling out targets to Viper and Santa in the jet squad who were quite happy to shoot down aircraft. And when necessary, they bombed the flag to clear it for us. The fact that I walked away with a 15-1 K/D ratio wasn't bad either. I went with an all sniper squad because I normally get very bored on Sunrise and wanted to do something different. Overall, we were pretty effective (shoutout to Sumluv, Clawhammer, and Blonov ). TG has some very good sniper talent (Mantis, Santa, Sumluv, Clawhammer, Sordavie, etc.), you just have to know how to use them in your squad.

As for the anti-personnel kit, hush your mouth. It's fine the way it is, devs.
