The thing about limiting the number of snipers is that that encourages the sniper(s) that are in the server to just sit there and shoot the pillboxes, because it's suddenly a big privelege they have to respect. It wouldn't solve it in my book unless you got rid of them altogether.
I'm totally against removing snipers, invisible walls for the axis to be protected, limiting snipers, and god mode mg42 whores.
But I'd support your "limiting snipers" as long as the allied were allowed to release attack dogs that would eventually come up and chew the faces off those opposed to snipers.
You are an idiot with no life to start a petition to ban weapons in a game...you dumbass. I'm starting a petition to ban idiots who complain about snipers and rockets...deal with them. They are not hard to kill if you got skill. This is so god-dam ridiculous. I read in another post, that some schmuck want's to get rid of grenades!! What the hell is going on. This game is a WW2 game, not the Revolutionary war. Wake up!
PS: Sorry for the cuss words, but I am pissed at this crap!

just b/c you dont like to play sniper i dont think you should ruin it for people who do. my favorite lvl to snipe on is omaha. it is fun. it is one of the reasons i love the game. find a server were they dont have snipers or make one yourself but dont push your playing views on others. nazi
snipers should be limited always, or the game gets lame. 1 for every 6 is FINE. maybe even a feature where, if the sniper sucks, the computer will automatically change him to a rifle to let someone more qualified be a sniper.
some people were pissed when they couldn't have godmode, but they realized the game is fun without it after playing without it.

the problem is you always get 4-6 "johnny grassy noll" types that arent doing ANYTHING to help the team. newsflash, the germans spawn up there, you have to get there. they start there. Sniping them and making them respawn...where your guys have to go doesnt solve a damn thing. one or two guys keeping the guns down does help. Anymore than that garuntees your team a loss.
This is why i wish there were hard per map limits that can be set by the server. If you give newbies the choise they will always do something to screw up teamplay.
