Do you see the issue with your point about snipers? It's essentially be better or snipe. Should be a weapon to directly counter snipers don't you think?

  • Exactly get better, don't get me wrong I'm not the best at taking them on but most people just keep taking them head on and expecting a new result. With all the rushing and aggressive play styles in this game people just make themselves fish in a barrel.. Do you have input into beating them? Not being rude

  • Depends on the sniper. Sometimes you just get out played. I find that you just gotta keep moving. Don't rush straight at them obviously haha. Strafe also works a bit. Just hard to counter yanno? If you're going toe to toe with a sniper and you're using primary. Anything could happen there haha

  • Well you can count on 7/10 snipers carrying TLW or another handcannon I find I can outplay TLW with iron wreath but primary's only use if you are with a team mate depending on the range of your gun. Honestly though just be a Jedi and have patience, until you can get close enough to make it a primary battle

  • Yea man I do like sidearms against tlw. Quite funny. The problem is there are counters to shotguns. Tlw, doctrine, stickies, sidearms, shotties ect. My problem is there aren't many ways to properly counter snipers. Assuming you're playing someone equally as skilled as you. I think some sortve primary buff would fix the shotgun rushers and hardscopers

    We had a few good ones but the nerfs happened and now its a special weapon meta, which in saying that is ironic because they also nerfed the ammo.

  • Do you think improving primaries would fix it or is it the special weapons themselves?

  • I think snipers are 1 shot in every game ever (destiny headshots only) and shotguns are too if you can close the gap between you and other guy. But to summarise either way people are gonna find the next big thing [spoiler]no pun intended that shotgun was not the next big thing[/spoiler] But yeh the target acquisition could probably do with a bit of a nerf but no so much you can't quick scope because thats gonna encourage more hard scoping

  • If you HAD to nerf snipers or shotguns I'd probably take range perks off shotties and increase flinch on snipers? One day I hope that sidearms are the new op hahaha

  • Range on shotguns are good I haven't got a god roll with both rangefinder and rifled barrel which is when they are op. I think snipers flinch is usually just the lag in the game. Which can be expected from this game :p

  • Atm shotguns are Inconsistent. Ghost bullets are a real thing. I hear snipers get this too. That Needs to be fixed for sure. Yea man, when shotties work they wreck. I have PC with RF and rifled and it's a bit silly. If you can't be bothered playing you can literally charge at people and still get a kill. So stupid. I still think the buffing of primaries would put special weapons in their place. Wanna rush me? Hawksaw will melt you if you run straight at it. Wanna hardscope at mid range? Mida will melt you. Special should be yanno...special? Good in specific situations. It's a hard one. Least there are people out there who don't wanna nerf everything haha
