The 2x RoF unfortunately also means the Ost Sniper is necessarily revealed twice as often in order for it to perform its duties at equivalency to Sov Sniper, in relation to the larger Sov squad sizes.
This creates a internal handicap that sort of negates this "perk", to an extent.
Cover is so plentiful in this game that I find the longer camo out of cover to be a pretty superficial advantage. Makes micro moderately easier, but itsma "gimmicky" kind of thing that can just as easily be accomplished with movement through normal cover.
Id recommend:
-80 hp
-Change RoF to a quick double tap, with long reload after the two shots.
-Make Camo same as Sov.
-Increase its sight range above Sov Snipers
+1 to the double tap idea, Love it! Would fix 1v1 sniper vs sniper.
Problem will come in 2v2 if one guy gets 2 or 3 snipers and they all double tap. I play 1v1 almost exclusively, but i know for certain 2v2 players will complain if relic implements a double tap system.
I say
just fuck the whole "asymmetrical balance bullshit" for once and make soviet sniper a clone of the german one(maybe with slight rate of fire reduction to compensate squad sizes). The abilities at vet one gives more than enough "asymmetry" imho.
Asymmetrical balance is great and all, but currently it is more asymmetry than balance in a lot of scenarios.
