SNIPER RIFLE HAS NO DAMAGE EFFECT ON MECKS AND RAZORBACK

Why dose the sniper rifle have no damage effect on mecks and razorback ? Every other weapon has a damage effect on these two Vehicle but the sniper rifle dose not , this sucks ass big time it takes skill to shoot a hawk out of the sky and shoot a moving 4x4 jeep I loved doing that in warhawk and I want to have the same in starhawk, the skill system could do with having a real skilful attack score for this then you could understand why their is a skill system.

Agreed, it's unrealistic that the other weapons do damage, yet the sniper rifle does not.

I don't think they should damage the mech or razorback as it would unbalance the gameplay. Unlike warhawk, you can build a sniper rifle tower anywhere, and get one very easily. And it's too easy to hit those vehicles with a sniper, especially a mech. You'll just get everyone sniping them easily

Agree and disagree, yes it seems unusual a strong weapon wouldnt harm it but then yeah its an easy target with a sniper.

I personally want snipers to harm auto turrets.
P.s. *Mech (title) :smileytongue:

They do damage autoturrets. You just need to hit at the big red eye they have when they are facing your direction. Instant demolish.

Listen to your self!!!!!
You make it sound like you were one shot one killing Warhawks!!!!! & if you were it was damaged by someone else before you....

It took 3 sniper rounds to kill a fully healthed Warhawk...

And the majority of them were killed 10 or 20 ft off the ground.....

Pump 2 rounds into a empty WH and wait for a pilot to climb in & the 3rd to finish it off......


men of the imperium do you want to live for ever!!!
