Is it me or does the sniper gun just have way too much range? Just because its accurate doesn't mean it needs to shoot far. I mean Tiger Woods is accurate, but he doesn't pull up from half court and score a grand slam now does he?
The sniper is too powerful from far away. I mean every game I'm in there is some noob off to the side just sniping everyone. I was playing on Boneyard and the noob didn't even let me charge up my laser. He just noob shotted me in the head. Bungie, there is something wrong here.
Last game on the Reflection me and my little brother rushed Rockets and shotgun when the game started, but this noob didn't even follow us. He went straight for sniper gun. And then me and my brother got killed by some DMR noobs and they took our Rockets and then that sniper noob just kept killing people from the side. He had almost all of our teams kills. I got so mad at him for stealing my kills I went up and betrayed him because I wanted to show that idiot I don't deal with noobs on my team. Then I picked up his sniper gun and wasted all of the ammo.
I'd rather have 5 kills and 20 deaths with skill weapons than going 20-1 (I guess I was the only one that could kill that noob) with that noob sniper. So thats what I did. I showed him that I have zero tolerance for noobs on my team.
It takes no skill to use a sniper, you just shoot their head once. I think you should improve a gun that requires more skill. Thats why I think you should give the shotgun more range. Not as much as the sniper gun, but about as much as the DMR. This way skilled players like myself will have a chance with these noobs. Its impossible to take out a sniper with the shotgun.
Another way to change is to add some spread to the sniper gun. That really showed those DMR noobs. I think it could be very good in stopping the sniper gun noobs.

I'm glad someone remembers the reference :) I thought it would be an amusing way to frame the thread and hook people in, though it largely backfired, I think mostly because of the GIF I was originally using in the OP...

Not impossible to take out snipers with shotguns. I've done it. Many times.
