TF2: the Sniper

Now, back to the Sniper. Sure, everyone wants to play the Sniper. It’s a class designed for the antisocial gamer. Sit on a hill, line up the scope, and nail someone who never saw it coming from half-a-mile away, right?

Not in this game. Most of the maps have you moving quickly, and at close-quarters. The Sniper’s usual methods are actually a liability here. He needs to get solitary and keep his distance, and that’s a hard thing to do in TF2.
