Rommel,
I must totally agree with you about the children who think kills are more important than winning the objective.
I use the sniper rifle a lot, mainly for it's one shot one kill attributes. But on Omaha I stay at the boats just long enough to make sure that most of my men got to the wire, (also called "cover fire") then I follow them to raise hell in the tunnels.
Unfortunately many people only play for their own personnal glory and don't give a shit about the others.
