Now thats just plain ignant'.
Lol. The chem sprayer is quite possibly THE best close-quarters combat weapon available, and does more damage all around than any other weapon.
|
but is let down by its shitty range, its unwieldiness against infantry, and the fact that while it does decent damage against a vehicle that's dense enough to let you attack it, there's a tiny little flaw there.

The Tiberium Sydney is NOTHING to laugh at. Its actually a very good character, and can even out-do Patch in certain respects.
|
It's not worth the cost.

And the tiberium fletchette gun....How else do we kill snipers in Canyon?

you ignore them and demolish the enemy base with tanks.

That's the difference between CW and Public servers. There is an objective in CW (to win using the most effective strategy) working fast and cohesively.
But in public servers, players get distracted with characters and vehicles that are not necessarily effective and merely feed the player's own indulgement (fun) with the game. Not that it is wrong to do that but winning is not assured and defeat may come at anytime. This is the reason Public games are not the place to be if you are looking for a challenge.
This is also the reason why it is quite pointless to tell a Public player to ignore enemy snipers.
For example, why does the average Public player buy Ramjets all the time? To get most kills. Does not benefit the team at all but it feeds the player's own indulgement in the game. However, there are a few exceptions to this as there are Public players that buy such weapons just to help the team in certain situations. 
Why does a CW player buy a Ramjet? To benefit the team if such a weapon fits effectively into the overall strategy of the map.
Only a few Public players understand this.
|
Personally, the ONLY time I'll buy a sniper is just to pick off engi's/techs repairing attacking vechs.

MWright967 gets a magical thing called a Volt Rifle, which doesn't have such a slow firing speed and will kill an Orca before having to reload.

Let me guess, are they going to run me over? I can jump for a reason. Are they going to headshot me? Cool. I'll go get in a little tunnel, structure, or corner so they can't. Are they going to use missles on me? Possibly. They're also hard to aim and pretty much suck.
I'm not worried

I'm sorry, but a mobius or mendoza is a pretty poor choice of weapon against an orca or apache... any decent flier will gun you down with the machinegun in a heartbeat, and if your strategy revolves around hiding from him, let me point out the flaw:
you won't be able to attack him either if you do that
take my advice and get a ramjet instead... something which actually is effective against an orca, even if piloted by someone who actually knows what they're doing with it

If I was attacking with Orca, and I see you with a Volt Auto Rifle, here's what I would do, in this order:
1) Laugh
2) FLY AWAY. The while they are pretty powerful, the range on them is downright lol-worthty. Once I'm out of range, I will...
3) Either gun you down from out of range (Since orcas outrange Volt Auto Rifles, unless I'm mistaken) OR fly away and proceed to take potshots at your harvester or the structure of my choice, since your Volt Auto Rifle is powerless to stop me and you can't hope to match the speed of an Orca.
Next time, use a ramjet rifle, which kills orcas/apaches in a mere 5 shots (1 clip + 1 shot). Not only will you destroy the orca in less time than it would take with a Volt Auto Rifle, but you'd be able to hit it so long as you maintain line-of-sight, as the ramjet has near-unlimited range.
Also, note that jumping does not safeguard against being run over.
