I dont think those are good ideas for snipers, since they failed before.
Though, I would like to see changed the community maps from Team Slayer to Squad Slayer, since it becomes annoying going in party with 4 people on the same console, and getting a random to pair up? No, that experience should stay in Team Slayer, since is the most basic Reach kind of gameplay, and the community maps for Squad Slayer, since 2 player split-screen would work great, also having the Team lock prevents for boosting
Snipers should only be played on bigger maps. Powerhouse should be probably the smallest map in the playlist. DLC maps should be required, so we can Highlands and Tempest on a regular basis, they’re both really good for snipers.
Squad should also have DLC required, so we can play Anchor 9, Condemned, and maybe Tempest. Squad’s a reprieve from the usual community map -Yoink-, I’d rather not mess with that, especially not for bad maps like Eden Minor and Treasury.
I’m pretty sure Team Snipers already has Reflection (at least I remember playing it fairly recently). It should have Asylum, but the others are probably not the best for Snipers (especially Countdown, no thanks). I don’t mind smaller maps for Snipers, as long as they have angles, but hallway maps are not good.
Squad Slayer doesn’t have community maps because it was designed to fill the “no armor lock” and “4-player-split-screen” niche.

Pinnacle was removed because it blatantly favors Red Team in terms of spawns. Now it just needs to be removed from SWAT.
As for the rest of the maps? No. We don’t need small-mid maps for people to run around trying to treat the Sniper like a pseudo Shotgun.

These maps aren’t included in Squad Slayer because they are restricted to two player splitscreen only. Squad Slayer serves one purpose: To give four player splitscreens a place to go. Well, two actually, since it doesn’t have AL it’s a more competitive version of Team Slayer.
