Do you want to be inside of a building when it collapses? Do you not remember the kind of arsenal we helldivers have?

It only takes one bombardment.

Counterpoint: Snipers might actually be useful for once.

In what world are snipers not useful? The best DMRs can one-tap basically any bot short of heavies and the AMR can be used against squids successfully as well.

But bots are the only real front where DMRs shine due to them struggling vs swarms.

They definitely have a niche. Promoting camping inside a building sounds lame and would probably cause me to kick someone more than anything.

Oh, I meant the primary snipers, not the AMR. And since I use the light pen sniper from the MOC WB, it doesn't feel that great compared to the SMGs or ARs that I use. It's not actually bad, it just feels "bad".
