main problem is the PVE game does not really support sniper rifle game-play. you basically have 2 mission types. things like exterminate, capture, or sabotage where the enemies are level locked and you will rarely see anything above level 40ish. for those situations you can perform your sniping needs with any of the semi-auto rifles or pistols. then you have modes like defense or survival where the enemies escalate in level, but they come in large waves. sniper game-play is not good for dealing with large hordes of enemies charging you repeatedly.

perhaps they are useful in pvp, but i would not know.
