Why are there so many quick scopers in Destiny?

At least in a situation like this, I understand the problem lies with the player and not the weapon. Im getting soooo sick and tired of being in Crucible matches where there's literally a sniper around every corner. Why do you need a sniper rifle to kill someone who's right around the corner?! Most of the maps in the game are too small for them to begin with. I get they're supposed to one-shot you, but when EVERYBODY uses them within auto-rifle range, sometimes even shotgun range that's when it starts to get ridiculous. It's not Call of Duty people..... *EDIT* It's died down a little bit, mostly happening in the Iron Banner. But now people run around in Skirmish with Y1 exotics. *sighs*

  • Is rather get kwikscope'd by someone with a skilled aim than shotgunned.

    People really are starting to complain about anything in this game... And it's nothing like cod because you can't one shot to the body. Cod you can. That's what people always forget...

    • Lol you are aware 95% of player play with shotgun , right? Snipers take skill and even more skill up close.

    • They see the streamers doing it very effectively so they do it too. I personally don't use snipers in PvP but I see nothing wrong with others doing so. Hey if it works and you can pull it off, go for it. More power to you.

    • I've recently started doing this and it's a blast and takes a little more skill than slide/shotgun

    • Now that I have Stillpiercer/1000 yard stare I understand how people go on ridiculous streaks just staring at a control point/doorway. The reticle literally jumps from person to person, I had to do very little to go on a Fiver on Shores of Time the other day. I thought shotguns were easy mode but honestly sniping is just as game breaking when highly skilled. The amount of people who run around a corner with their shotty ready but quickly begin to back peddle when getting hardscoped in cqc is soooooo priceless.

      • It's still like cod in the way that is snipers all have the fastest time to kill, so if you get good with snipers, you can beat any one.

      • using sniper in cqc is the hardest thing in this game. and if your stupid enough to slowly come from around the corner when someone is hard scoping then stop playing fps

      • If you know a snipers round the corner then don't walk around it. He has his sights set at head level just waiting for you. Try jumping/blinking round the corner that will put them off for a couple of seconds.

        • Because they want to play the game how they want, don't like it? Play a solo game.

        • I'd rather be picked off by a sniper for walking Into a doorway knowing it means they don't have a close range instant kill so I can push them aggressively than someone camping next to the door with a shotgun

        • You should start matches with 0 heavy and 0 special. Special should spawn in 2 locations, only grant a few rounds, and spawn twice as quick as heavy. Would force more primary battles over heavy and special.

          • Why are so many people using guns in this game? Like I'm soooo tired of being shot by guns when you have melees, grenades, and supers. Lol but fr I think sniping especially in closer ranges takes more skill than most weapons in destiny

            • Difference is that we headshot you in any situation to get the one shot kill. If we hit a body shot we will probably die. Shotguns one hit kill all the time body shots. Only shotgun that needs a headshot for a kill is the chaperone.

            • If he's around the corner and you run there and get sniped, it's not a quick scope.

            • I don't quickscope unless it's shotty range. I will hard scope and walk around corners though. Don't stand still
