If sniping isn't a crutch...
If sniping is a skilled weapon, why can so many bad players with under a 1.0 kd do so well with any sniper? It's worse then thorn lol I'm not asking for a nerf but sniping has really lost its creditability at this point. Good snipers have no reason to comment. If you're good you understand the difference.

7 RepliesShow me a person with a kd under a 1.0 that does good with a sniper Don't pull information out of your ass

Because dumb people put their heads right in the dot of my scope.
-
You dummies act like aim assist is an auto headshot.
-
9 RepliesAim assist. The fact that they even added a perk for more aim assist is -blam!-ing embarrassing
-
If they have less than 1.0kd it could be argued that they actually aren't doing so well with it.
-
It's the mass availability of these snipers that's a major part of the issue. They should have been very difficult to get EXOTIC snipers.

3 RepliesEdited by Gwiio: 12/24/2015 1:47:16 AMSniping is effective because people don't know how to counter it. They are just sitting ducks so of course they will get sniped. If you want to counter you just need to stay moving and be unpredictable.

Because kd has no actual show of skill. Just how many times you killed more than died. You can kill an average of 5 players a match and only die twice each time for a week. Get a good kd. Does that still make you skilled? It is possible. Ive seen it. Its called.... Run like a bitch

7 RepliesBungie needs to add more snipers, what I mean is like that PEOLE will use because they are viable . The Crucible sniper is terrible other than the aim assist. Glass Promonotory is alright Stillpercer (what I use) is what I believe as the best balanced sniper But the main problem is that I could place 10 bucks on my first death by a sniper in trials and it would be 1000 yard stare 95% of the time honestly it's gotta change because first off it's a great sniper but secondly it's just way to easy to use and requires no skill All the above is not written in a format credible to Destiny's casual player setup but I'm talking about the more competitive areas. #BRINGBACKYEARONE. Lol

3 RepliesI seriously wish I could turn off AA. I run NLB and a sidearm and there are moments that I'm about to take someone out, and someone jumps in front of them, pulling my aim away, causing me to shoot right in between them. It's infuriating.

1 ReplyJust for the record my k/d is below 1 and I can't snipe for shit.
-
11 RepliesThat blaming 1000 yard aim assist.i hate it.
-
Maybe because they like to use challenging weapons and that's why they have a low kd
-
This sniping meta is so boring *yawn*
-
2 RepliesDoes not compute, if their KD is below 1, aren't they not doing well with a sniper?
-
4 RepliesEdited by JSepe: 12/23/2015 2:51:07 PMThe overall kd for someone using the 1000 yard stare is 1.0. Jon whatever said it in that interview yesterday and said they aren't changing anything. Get used to it.
-
I just still use icebreaker a lot cause tbh, it's such a good scope
-
The overall KD for 1KYS is negative. It's, by definition, not a crutch. There were far superior snipers in Yr1. Get over it.
-
under 1 kd...good? that doesn't make since and fyi the 1000yard stare has a 1.0 kd in crucible
-
5 RepliesIf its a crutch, why is the average kd of someone using the 1kys below a 1.0?
-
Aim assist

Yeah I can see them lowering the aa on all snipers in the future. Hopefully they do.

8 RepliesThey only thing that bothers me about sniping even tho I always will hate it is that if I'm emptying a clip into a sniper they should not get a good shot on me still. It's like they have toughness from cod. There scope should be bouncing like crazy. If they just patch and make it like that I think it would be a whole lot fair and more skillful

1 ReplyThe reason why snipers feel so OP are because of a lot of problems. The sniping mechanics are easy to learn and if you play long enough you will get a hold of it. Another reason, most maps have very simple designs that won't allow you to get close to someone without running through sniper lanes. Maps that display this are dungeons, shores of time cauldron, etc. Everyone knows the main points of these maps and sniper lanes. The problem with maps like these is you know the enemy will pass through these points if you watch them long enough. Narrow corridors help as well as the aim assist will stick to the target as they turn the corner. Another reason snipers seem OP is because the lastword has been beefed up. So even if you do manage a flank you still got to beat a lastword which is very difficult with shotguns as they are. That is why there is a rise also in players going invisible with shotguns. I hate it but I don't blame them. Let me know what you feel???? I personally feel lastword as it is now does not fit into year 2, and causes alot of problems when matched with a sniper.
