It's not that noticeable in pvp. People like to complain when they got killed by a sniper. If they die it must be because of the aim assist or lag or blah blah blah

Drag sniping would be near impossible without aim assist. I came to this game after playing battlefront for months... sniping in that game is hard. The projectile MUST be on head pixels PRECISELY to get a ohk with one of the two sniper weapons (one of those has bullet drop). In destiny you only need to get the reticle close. My first crucible game i was shocked at how easy it was to nail headshots. Now I'm not detracting from sniping skill in destiny. However sniping skill in destiny is not based on good reticle placement, it's based on good map positioning and situational awareness. If aim assist were completely excised from the game almost no one would snipe.

[quote] If aim assist were completely excised from the game almost no one would snipe.[/quote] That's kinda like saying if all weapons were removed, we couldn't shoot each other. Basically [b]some[/b] aim assist needs to be there on a console shooter. What I'm talking about is the people that use it as a scapegoat for everything. Kinda like sbmm is imo. If there's lag or the game isn't easy, just blame sbmm. If you have a .07 kd, but it's not easy to get kills, it must be sbmm -rolls eyes- and yes, I've seen that on the forums. But that's a different topic..

I don't think your analogy holds up, but i don't think we're really in disagreement. The game's rules aren't broken. Sniping doesn't bother me because I have to put myself in a vulnerable position in order to be sniped. If i die to a sniper, I blew it. However, the level of aim assist on snipers is startlingly high compared to the last fps I went balls deep on (battlefront). In fairness most of the battlefront community considerd the two sniper weapons mostly useless at the time i left.

Didn't play it myself, but yeah sounds like it. Some try to talk about cod sniping, but that's a whole different beast.

When I think of aim assist I think of all the times my crosshairs, of any weapon, are moved from shooting the guy looking at me to his buddy that just entered the picture. That is annoying. You can't turn it off either. My console is set to not use it but Bungies software overrides this. The death is just annoying because I don't need any extra handicaps. I'm not that good.

Yep that happens. It happened to me a couple times farming omnigul last week where I would shoot golden gun right as the thrall spawn in and they would divert my aim just a little and cause me to miss

Its too hard to disrupt a sniper holding ADS, that's the main problem. Hard scoping should not be as uninterruptible as it is and quick zoom out/zoom in BS should be penalized as well.
-
I can see that. I have had it happen too where you are blasting a guy and he one shots you right before you kill him.
-
Ya I don't care if I get killed by a legit sniper shot but when I pop a hard scoped sniper 3-4 times with my scout they shouldn't be able to have a solid shot on me at all.
-
Yeah but reducing aim assist won't effect that, it the flinch mechanic I believe?
-
Oh I know, ya, I'm not saying to adjust AA in the game. I don't think AA is the problem, it's just the scapegoat used by people.
-
Honestly I think that's what it is
