The sniper flinch needs removed. The flinch literally makes the gun a camping weapon and on top of that it makes it useless in a fire fight. The flinch was added bc of derper shotguners and needs and needs to be removed immediately.
The statistics from this iron Banner will show what is balanced and what is not. Considering everybody's fuc king running around with shotguns derping around like fuc king morons like they're fuc king good and they're not.
Shotguners just need to close the gap which isn't that hard. People using snipers have to find a lil dot and time a shot right. It takes more skill to get a kill with a sniper over any other gun in the game. So what does bungie do to cater to the masses? Nerf the hardest gun type in the game to a point of being useless.

Honestly, flitch is fine as it is but I think the amount of flinch should very on impact and damage drop off (range stat) of the weapon it's being flinched by not a over all percentile as it was
-
What they need to do is fix the amount of flick certain archetypes do, high impact things should do a lot more flinch, the problem is that the meta now is high rof pulses which have to high of flinch, The flinch makes sense with hand cannons and scouts but for pulses and auto I think it's stupid, as well they need to have a range on the flinching like damage drop off flinching should be greater at closer ranges.

And start the sniper meta again? -blam!- no!

Edited by PhantomMelon: 10/9/2016 2:20:40 AMI honestly agree that bungie has put an emphasis on putting "special" weapons in the back seat, or atleast that's what they say they do. So far it seems like shotguns sidearms and fusions stay about the same or improve while they just drill snipers with nerfs. I think flinch was fine year 2 it moved your shot but didn't make it impossible to hit anything. It's hard to use when bungie keeps putting out shotgun maps and now shotgun game modes
-
Reduced yes gone no
-
Yes, flinch should be removed. You should de-scope when hit.
-
They finally got something right!! The flinch is what it should be. Your using a sniper rifle. You get hit in the head your gonna loose aim. If you sit in the same spot trying to snipe it should increase. Snipers are finally in their right place. Shotguns are as well. Snipers just haven't adapts to the change.
-
Wow your salty.
-
Why you'd be trying to snipe in the middle of a gun fight is beyond me, this isn't Cod. It's not Impossible to still snipe either, I still do. The flinch is actually fair because if you can actually try fighting a sniper without instantly losing your head.
-
This post sure backfired
-
Actually Bungie nerfed snipers twice first with the sniper nerf - second with the supremacy mode and the new maps the whole supremacy thing is for morons - a mode to satisfy everyone who would never succeed in any skill based mode
-
Pure lol
-
People are not sniping in this iron banner because its supremacy. You would have a hard time grabbing crests from a ways off in this game mode. Shotguns, fusions and sidearms will be a better choice for this irons banner. I still use my sniper for trials and any other game type and do pretty good.
-
Useless in a firefight? No crap. You're not supposed to be able to get repeatedly hit in the dome and accurately return fire. You get a chance a single shot kill, and if you get hit you move to a new spot like an other game ever made
-
No. Snipers aren't supposed to be used like shotguns for the most part and their increase in flinch is better for the average player constantly being hard scoped in every match. They were too dominating before and now they're not, which is a good thing.
-
You have been rekt.
-
Judging by your responses, it seems you have lost your pacifier...
-
-
Holy crap what an ego
-
Sounds like this game is too hard for you, try having mommy buy you Barbie Dress Up, Pokémon Go or Paper Mario, those games don't have shotguns
-
Handcannons require more skill then your little blue tack marker on your screen does.
-
Everyone, do not post on this thread, op is in denial and will insult you if your right. Best you can do is report this guy and move on
-
You... You don't seem to know what you're saying...
-
Aww, did baby lose his crutch weapon? It wasnt added because of shotguns, it was added because almost every weapon could shoot a sniper, only for them to be sniped in the head no matter what.and snipers had a load of aim assist, it literally automatically scoped in on the head for you and followed it. (I sniped and shotgunned btw)
-
Lololololololololololololol ahh that's a good one. Please don't forget the satire tag or this post is gonna look real bad.
-
😂😂😂 this is all I can do when I read this post.
