It's easier to just remove a feature instead of actually trying to balance it.

Mediarch ᴴᴸᴺ: Hey they nerfed sniper
"Snipers can no longer jump immediately after firing a scoped shot"
Good Change? Bad Change? I don't play sniper so idk
Feroaffer: Good. fag snipers rely on jump+crouch macros to not get headshot
Feroaffer: Unless its like 5 second long dely before jumping or something
Mediarch ᴴᴸᴺ: i think it's to the end of the reload animation
Mediarch ᴴᴸᴺ: from what I can figure
Feroaffer: thats not bad
Mediarch ᴴᴸᴺ: yeah I just checked it's like one second

They say that they want to improve the pub experience, but all this does is prevent me from being able to kill 3 of their snipers while they are all staring at me. I can only kill one before the other get me.

It's not even a nerf, it just makes it easier for Snipers to kill Snipers.

Only the dead ringer is a problem with this. Regular cloaking takes enough time that the spy will probably not get away.

If you're putting yourself in a position where 3 other snipers are staring you down and you're trying to MLG them you have more problems then not being able to jump.

I agree with this. In a pub, we shouldn't have one guy that is crouch jumping and second scoping utterly dominating other people. (note: he doesn't have more skill, only more knowledge of undocumented gameplay mechanics)

Is this really a good change though?

i hope everyone knows how lame it is to go against a second scoper. This just gives less of an advantage the sniper who took initiative. Less advantage for initiative = passive, stalematey play.

I guess people will have to learn how to hit second scopers when they shoot first.

I mean I'm not saying "hurr durr itz so ez 2 counter second scoping" but rather that it might be about time people just directly deal with it without using an equally cheap tactic?

Honestly the only problem I see with this is not being able to surf a rocket if a soldier jumps you and you go for a shot.

Yeah this sounds like the person who scopes first has to be the better player as well. As we know, in a high level environment its not longer a skill-issue, its an imbalance.

Plus, in tf2, i feel like you need to reward players who are initiating fights, since it is generally easier to defend.
