I mean, do you hate people using them, hate going into a match running into an open area and seeing that red light for just a sec and them smack?! Lol even b.net's famous guardians(not going to name people, but hint they have very good podcast almost every week talking about how to fix the game) are posting about how sick of snipers they are XD. Love those weapons, but bungie needs to do some actual field testing with them(in real life), or play some other FPS. I think Its more of an issue due to competitive game modes like ToO or anything 3v3. What do you guys think?
Edit: Do random perk roll on weapons contribute to stuff being called op and or just certain perks? I know its some of the weapons themselves, but is it also some of the perks?
I think rolls contribute to weapons being hard to balance(a little). Why can't all purples have the exact same perks and in doing that, you balance team can accurately balance. Example: Instead of the Imago Loop having a range of different perk rolls, set a standard for the weapon bungie(this is just an example people), give the gun the best perks and adjust the weapon as needed. Do the same with all purples, then all you will have to worry about is how fast the weapon kills someone. I mean, all exotic have the same perks. No one has a zhalo that's different. Idk just a thought, something to think about. I know It will never happen.

7 RepliesI hate how easy they are to use and how forgiving under fire they are. At least half my sniper deaths had to have had at least a couple headshots prior. It's bullshit that people even have the leeway to pull off a headshot while under fire.
-
5 RepliesThey feel different than what they were in year one Year 2 snipers can get the perk hidden hand. Which is actually bull Makes sniping way easier for the shit kids
-
I don't mind them other than when I'm clearly winning a close quarters fight and the guy head shots me from 3 inches away.
-
1 ReplyI think we just hate special weapons in general now lol
-
after the last 10 months of the sniper meta I honestly dont mind if the suros snipers for the next year or two. Thats not me asking for that ...... but neither would I be bothered if they did. the game has become slow paced and stale. snipers and scouts are boring as hell as a meta and we are 10 months in to it now and likely have 2 more months to wait. at least it would change cruicble and trials up if they did. right now i dont think crucible is half as fun as year 1.

Just add sway while moving ads
-
Yes we hate them I blame the scope sniper should be a long range gun only if spots you and your short to mid range you should be able to kill him before he gets into the scope and the fact that you can move left and right and jump and still get a head shot is just not on in my book.
-
3 RepliesPersonally, I think they need their bodyshot damage toned down alot, by at least half. Adjust their crit multiplier so their crit damage stayd the same. You shouldn't be rewarded for firing all your shots blindly at someone.
-
Just an adjustment. Nothing more.

4 RepliesNothing wrong with them at all, any change to them will ruin pve, so clearly the only ppl who have a issue with snipers are people who play pvp more than pve. Getting pretty sick and tired of how many guns and subclasses are ruined by hardcore pvp players. It's time we see a separation on how guns and subclasses are used in pve/pvp so pve players like myself can actually enjoy this game without the fear of our favorite guns or subclasses getting nerfed or have unwanted changes later on. Too all hardcore pvp players, if you don't like certain guns or supers and feel like whining about it, I suggest you go play overwatch and stop calling for nerfs and unwanted changes plz. Thanks

Alright, I'll take it from here guardians, take a load off. Snipers are infact[spoiler]in need of an adjustment. They should hit the same as they do, but guardians should descope when hit in the head, swaying( may not happen), and remove quick scoping, make primaries the focus. Right now it's snipers and shotguns.[/spoiler]

7 RepliesEdited by PandaScream: 7/17/2016 4:20:47 PMThey take more skill to use than sitting around corners with shotguns. Not just that there's more kills with shotguns overall anyways so I can't see why snipers are even getting all the hate.
-
24 RepliesCan people stop talking crap about snipers. Yes they have their problems, but all weapons have problems. Shotguns take one hit to kill, only one archetype of auto rifle is ever used, and fusion rifles are slightly underpowered still. More importantly, there is never any diversity. Every time I go into a crucible match, I am always seeing the exact same weapons. The list includes: 1000 yard stare, grasp of malok, longbow, qullims terminus, conspiracy theory d, soul stealers, and doctrine of passing. At least 85% of the time I always see these weapons.
-
13 RepliesI've been saying this everywhere, Swaying, de scoping when hit, and remove aim assist, and no more 1 hit to the body.
-
Yea so wide spreader because the only people who voted no are the ones that use it in every single match I despise a plague gun an a crutch such as snipers
-
3 RepliesEasy fix for snipers would be to drop aim assist to 30-50 range and take off hidden hand perk.
-
4 RepliesAs weird as this sounds I actually like getting domed when it comes from someone who can consistently pull them off. It takes a redonkulous amount of time to learn and get better at. Hell half the time if I know im facing a group of em I just play "Dodge Bullet" and see how much of their ammo I can waste before even trying to go in for the kill. So anyone who thinks it takes no skill is extremely ignorant.
-
5 RepliesJust Buff shotguns instead.
-
Just make it to where if you aren't near the special ammo crate, you won't get the ammo.
-
Ur God dann right we do...they r broken af...there are so many things that r broken about snipers versus every other weapon in the game that I have quit all together until they do something drastic to snipers and restore the sunsinger back to a competitive form...

I was playing CS for 8 years and there was no one crying about Awp ( its was 10x harder play againts ) .Only destiny kids always cry
