It triggers me that we have assault rifles, shotguns, pistols and smg's, but no military tier sniper rifle :c
Nothing too technological, just a standard military issue sniper rifle:

I'm guessing FP hasn't implemented or talked about it (Or at least I never heard of anything, link me if they spoke about this please) because of the balancing issues. The bolty is already quite strong, when it was stronger it had to be nerfed, so how would one make this a direct improvement to the bolty without making it overpowered?
What about rarity? Making it hard to get etc, etc? Well make it too rare and it might as well not exist and make it too hard to get and it won't be used (Probably becomes a trophy of some sort).... Sad....
So trying to overlook the balance including the current game mechanics, imagine this would one shot kill anyone on the head, and two shot kill anyone on the chest, like the old bolty. People would certainly ask for nerfs but I propose: Military tier gear! Yes, helmet, kevlar, combat fatigues etc... A whole new plethora of items! Which could indeed let you survive for at least 1 shot in the head from the M24...
But making this out of nowhere is unlikely, and probably only going to appear after the "wipeless rust" they mentioned is on and well. Like many islands where 1 or 2 have military compounds, blah blah blah this is getting side tracked really quickly... Whad'ya think?
Weapons have a pretty good, and delicate balance right now. I would love to see a new armor tier, but I think it would break the current balance.
Yes, i would like to see some kevlar and this military shit, its damn cool.
more weapons more fun all can agree with that
Well then... Mortars! (Tho I thought this was actually planned)
Honestly ... the high tier weapons & armor are where they should be.
This isn't CSGo.
Game content and PVE survival need to be focused on and it appears they're doing that.
Just enjoy you can go buy the "rare" military weapons now.
