It's impossible to play on red maps other than the TV Center. It's either software or nerds running around naked with JKs. They broke hit registration, broke replays, broke armor, broke ammo, broke anti-cheat (or rather, they didn't prepare for the influx of Steam players in advance). Since the closed beta (the entire time I've been playing), they've only fixed the sound (and "fixed" is a bit of a stretch) and stuffed in skins + made the gameplay easier, which is a minus for some and a plus for others. The only good thing about the game now is the lighting.

And you can actually make a pretty good living in this game by leveling up your accounts using software. This would be a minus if there weren't so many cheaters in the game, and if the developers weren't banning cheaters in waves every two months and (partially) dumping this task on the players—the saviors—but, alas, this is the reality we live in.

I don't really see the point in commenting on sniper rifles. I just want to point out that, in my opinion, letting naked guys with top-end ammo onto red or yellow maps is stupid. Everything needs a rebalance, but I haven't put up with it and I won't, so I'm happily leaving this game. It's a shame I wasted 400 hours.
