Snipers are balanced now.

If you're getting shot in the head while you're shooting someone, then it's either lucky or they were aiming at your chest and the flinch that you caused brought the reticle up to your head. If you're getting shot in close range by a sniper then that sniper is just good at what they do. You don't see people who suck at pvp quickscoping and destroying people at close range.

    • Mmmmm, no. When im shooting someone in the face, they shouldnt be able to get a headshot when their face is literally taking lead, especially if its an AR hitting them.

        Sniping has been over glorified by the fps community. So many montages will contain only clips with snipes/quickscopes/noscopes not to mention the flashy YouTube videos of people like TrueVanguard which give the impression that "if you use a sniper, then you're MLG". It's gotten to the point where people will choose to use a sniper rifle over a primary in every situation which is completely unimaginative. I gave up exclusively sniping because of what it was turning into when TTK came out, now I'm having much more fun using a primary and a shotgun. When being peppered with bullets one should not be able snap off a quick headshot; the flinch should be [b]massive[/b]. That's something literally everyone can do; I do it, you do it, and that guy at the bottom of the leader board does it. Sniping is easy in this game, and because of how flashly sniping is by virtue, all the special snowflakes will equip that sniper and start making montages. Rest in peace, Skill, Gun 2000-2015

          No snipers aren't balanced. All snipers should have low AA. 20 AA across all snipers. I bet these "pro" snipers won't be pros if bungie did this. It's too easy to snipe in this game its ridiculous.

              • Lower aim assist values across the board on snipers to that of 30. Remove hidden hand. Boom better

                I still say that they need to rework the flinch, currently the flinch lets your reticle re-center on target after every flinch or at the start of every flinch. It should actually move when you get hit so that when the flinch is over you are not pointing exactly where you were before, that would stop the 'lucky' headshots when you clearly were outsmarted and outgunned. the close range scopes were fine and ADS speed didn't even make a difference, the biggest issue is when you lose a gunfight but just say 'fck it' and pull the trigger anyway and get rewarded for lack of situational awareness.

                • It will be balanced when shotguns get their agility back. They never should have nerfed the agility on shotguns.

                  • "aiming at your chest and the flinch that you caused brought the reticle up to your head" Should this happen? Ever? You are literally being punished for shooting your opponent. It may not happen often, but neither does melee hit detection issues.

                      • Snipers should just be removed from PvP to force people to learn what their primary is.

                          • No they're not. They are still very reliable at close range. Needs something to remove quick scoping. Shots still go right down the middle every time.
