Well, a little more information than a single word would probably be good for a suggestion post.
That being said, we have had a few requests for proper sniper rifles being added to the game in the past, as right now, we really only have a DMR or two, plus a couple of classic rifles that would effectively accomplish the same damage in most games.
In the past, before ranked war weapon bonuses were added, I had commented that an "aim" action for the proposed sniper rifles would be a good way of distinguishing them from regular primaries, but we now have the "Wind-Up" bonus which effectively does the same thing and can spawn on many primaries (as well as some melees). With those being added, I don't really see much need for this being added to sniper rifles, which leaves the question of just... why? High accuracy and high damage single shot weapons? We already see some of that from the heavy secondaries.
