Shotguns are used for range IRL. It's about the spread. Stop sliding and use your primary a lil more often.

  • I actually never slide and as you know, we don't get much special ammo, so yes I use primary. *derp I'm saying that other specials haven't taken as many beatings even though they're all lethal. They are SUPPOSED to knock you out, that's why they're "special". Be serious. We've all been taken out very quickly by different primaries before. Hell, 2-shot last word kills from across the map didn't have as much butt-hurt crying as shotguns, which should DESERVEDLY kill you in one hit.

  • TLW and most hand cannons were nerfed, you're kidding yourself. You're a perma croucher too I'm safe to assume.

    No. Had you read the post, I mention that I die jumping in at people constantly, the way you're SUPPOSED to SG. I die from people hitting me with OP weapons while I jump in at them all the time when they keep backing up. I also mention that Bungie is lying when they mention how many places are tight to SG on new maps b/c they are really open for sniping. I said I DON'T WANT to be relegated to a few small spaces and forced to camp if I want to SG. Thanks for not reading, though it was a long post. ;-) ps, I didn't mention it, but I HATE the slide mechanic and literally never do it. (It's just that if OTHERS slide while you ADS it messes up your shot and leaves you vulnerable)

  • I snipe a lot and even then its when I see someone in the distance - not waiting for someone to come into my sights. You shouldn't be camping with ANY weapon.

  • I never disagreed with that, but most snipers I know do. Honestly, there aren't many run'n'gun snipers because there SHOULDNT be. Sniping doesn't lend to running, unless you're pathetic and L2+R2 auto-aim kill, at which point you shouldn't ever chime in on anything that's "unfair". (Not saying you L2 R2)

  • I honestly haven't tried the l2 r2 lol. I only just came back from an 8 month hiatus and back then there was no such thing as target acquisition. I thought it was a bit of a myth anyway? No idea!

    No, the target acquisition is real. As someone who PVPs regularly and with ppl who snipe, the honest ones tell me "bro, it's SO OP, I can't believe how OP it is to snipe". The new maps are also very, very open so with strong target acquisition or "excellent" it is a one-shot killer. I believe it's the "1000 yard stare" that has an unbelievably high one, like 3-4x normal snipers. It's just one of the things that is digging at me about Bungie touching things without knowing what they're going to effect, or scrweing others just because the little children they now aim at as new-acquisitions complain loudly all over the internet. They just keep killing good weapons in favor of what other people like. Hell, they nerfed my "The Cure" rocket launcher in the last "balance", it used to have 2 rockets in the mag, now only 1. They didn't offset my reload speed as a bonus or anything, then they killed horseshoes and hand grenades, etc. Even THAT didn't get me posting about it, but this is too much.
