Sniping is still valuable (assuming equal skill in every position) because you are draining the attention and APM resources of the enemy team. It also tends to be a physiological victory. Provided you keep up the momentum this can often lead to a win.

Just remember that you haven't scored an economic victory. So don't expect it to be a walk in the park from then on. You've killed an ACU - and if this required a huge loss of your own units, or gifted an eco to a better player, then this is what is called "un-success". Before choosing to snipe, first evaluate whether this will help you win the game. If not kill something else instead. Like his army, or his eco. In a 4v4 you want to be thinking more about economic victories, and winning the battle, not sniping ACU's.

Full share is the name of the game, unless it's low level setons.

I think at the lower rankings/all welcome you'll tend to find quite a few share until death games but beyond 1000 rating you won't find anything other than full share.

Anything else than Full Share isn't a real Setons game. The majority of games would be over immediately after an ACU is sniped if that option isn't used due to the effect on navy / air battles.

Even with full share it's common that after an ACU dies his position will be lost due to the interruption of unit production / micro.

You have to weight in rating differences etc when deciding if you should snipe someone and risk donation of his economy / units to a more competent player.

I've seen mostly full share, but there is always one guy that complains about it.

A few nights ago I had a guy beetle snipe one of my teammates, discover full share was on, then just CTRL-K in protest himself.

I think it's more interesting that half the time you snipe someone delivering a second fully functional economy to the back player just makes the game even harder to win.

I haven't played for a while.

Seton's games used to be "full share" but all the games I've played in the last few days have been "share until death".
