If the rife has a long reload time and has a low mag capacity then it's balanced. Poke out, force the miss, then attack.
How braindead do you have to be to actually defend instakill mechanics?

Most snipers cannot aim at all. Sniper isn't hugely OP but I'd lower his damage output a bit.

Suppressive fire needs to be implemented to be more potent but this is literally what they intend you to do to beat him and it actually works on most players

Last time I checked, instagib settings in Unreal Tournament for example is no skillful (skillful=some players consistently winning - whatever factor that allows them to win, we call skill) than regular game modes, at least not to a major degree.

Those are "solutions", not reasons behind why instakill mechanics should be a thing in the first place
Yeah, I'm also braindead, but that doesn't excuse insta kill mechanics

At the distances most video games happen at the different is going to be negligible whether a bullet is treated as hitscan or it's path deduced point by point over time. Get serious. You know perfectly well "don't get hit" is a function of the actions taken proactively, not reactively.

Getting instakilled is a natural logical occurrence given of the existence of damage and hp.
