I have encountered 2 problems from the time I began playing the SF 1.9.4

1) The ammo box sometimes think you are the enemy. even tough you are from the same team, in your own fort. so you cant rearm. leaving you in your fort, without ammo. you might as well suicide.

2) Donno if its intentional or unnoticed, but the sniper received a nerf that made him, useless.
He was always slow moving, easy killed, slow reloader with distance-effected gun. but now this gun don't 1-shot engis and scouts anymore.
Now the odds to actually hit a scout twice with a sniper are lower then 0. (somehow.) and the engi might take out the wall before you set out that second shot.

So, you should probably look into these.

bullshit :<
try to not hit them in arms or legs

I managed to one shot scouts and engis plenty of times (3).

Dunno where you was playing but:

Scout = 100 HP + 15 Armour = 150 - 100 Crossbow damage = 15 Left. No one shot.

Engineer = 80 HP + 20 Armour = 100 - 100 Crossbow damage = 0 Left. One shot.

The ammo boxes was most likely a bugged map, happened a little.

I shot an engi with the sniper, he got knocked away, alive. not sure what happened then, but it happened many, many times. nearly every engi I shot survived it.

Commando-problem is its not that I'm bad at sniper, at 1.9.3 a 3-1 KD was low for me, and now too I hit most shots, (the aiming didn't change.) but I needed 2 shots to kill, by then he gets out of my killzone\get shot by someone else.

And I know I hit, knocked away dudes didn't got caught in the wind.

Something happened during the 1.9.4, probably an accident. somebody look into it please. maybe a weird bug on that map (somehow.) or something, but engis got hit and didn't die. (donno if snipers survive too, nobody even played sniper on the other team.)

you need to shot them in the head, I get shot by snipers all the time and i fly away the fall kills me some times lol.

Snipers do 100 damage wherever they hit you :p, and as far as I know they haven't been altered since 193
