i am leaving the sniper as it is. you get a 'laser sight', it takes time to charge the rifle for damage, you can't move fast while holding it down, and you get a silencer and flare grenades for cover that throw up a shower of sparks... that can't be turned off in any tweak configs. whatever is on the q2wf manual page is in the game.
if you've only played the wfa sniper you'd realize how overpowered he is, but its more deadly imo with the charge rate; you can pop a recon in one shot if you hold your button down and hit her anywhere.
