A letter to snipers, thank you

After countless games of getting my head blown off around Every. Single. Corner. From across the map to as close as 10 feet away, I was getting wrecked by you sorty bastards and I saw no end in sight. But instead of comming to these forums and complain, I went to my vault and leveled up every weapon I had. I start experimenting with different loadouts. Afterwards I started to learn about my surroundings and being aware. You need that special ammo crate more than I do, so I memorized the timer and camp it so you wont get it. You hardscoping that corner? Thats cool, I titan skate [u]everywhere[/u]. So by the time you take those extra two seconds to re-aquire your aim it takes 1 second to throw a flashbang and dome with this Saterianne rapier with high caliber rounds. I learned to play smart thanks to you bastards and I thank you for that. Go look at my last 5 games on my titan. I went 40 kills with a 8.0 kd on frontier. 25 kills on bannerfall with a 3.0 kd Yup, I got gud now. You wont hear no salt post from about snipers no matter how bullshit they are. Here some advice for ppl that struggle with snipers. High caliber rounds are your friends. Dont stay out in open areas too long Use a emote to look around corners Only engage when your weapon in its effective range ( to increase flinch) And last don't complain to bungie because its obvious at this point that like warlocks, snipers will never get nerfed because thats how they want it to be. Cant really change that. You're gonna have to adapt. Sincerely, Mike-b_chillin Edit : I thought alot of people knew that you can use a emote to look around corners...I got that from TrueVangaurd Edit: to the people that cant do math. You divide the number of kills with the number of deaths. 25÷8 = 3.125 I rounded down. I hate these forums, you all dismissed my entire post because of this. Goodness people This got pretty big

      I'm a sniper. I admit, almost every crucible match I'm sniping. Sure, I head straight for that special ammo crate. You can't get salty with people because they're good at it. I appreciate the work you've put in to counter us. See you on the battlefield. :)

          • My problem with sniping in this game is that 99% of the time I use a sniper, someone else is trying to snipe me back. It comes down to who can put their scope over the other guy first (which I can never do). But that's why I use everything other than snipers in PVP, though I'd still really like to try Hereafter just once.

          • Nice man. Finally someone who understands that snipers are bs but that's probably not gonna change because...well bungie, and that we can adapt to them. I'm still trying to practice outplaying but I'll gut gud at it eventually!

            • Thank you for the post. The sniper is probably the one consistent pain in the butt I get great satisfaction from when I finally get one that's popped me in the head a couple of times. It's also nice when playing without chat and you notice several other teammates hard charging next to you going after the same sniper about halfway through the match.

              or instead of being a one dimensional player learn how to snipe, shotgun, fusion, sidearm and primary. and play with all your classes and sub-classes. above all, have fun - or sweat your ass off chasing your kd.

              • It's not the sniper. It's the shooters. The better gun wins and snipers are one hit kills to the head. No super activated or overshield equivalent person is immune to it (except for things when the level differences for events is present.)

              • Best way to counter snipers is to jump or slide to visual cover until u get close enough where u feel comfortable in engaging. It is all about making clever aproaches. Anyone can snipe someone who runs right at them. It is nearly impossible to snipe someone blink, jumping, shadestepping or sliding from box to box.

              • I play with patience and time and snipe from afar as I have since vanilla. Now you have people with their low zoom snapshot hidden hand snipers ready to quick scope you. I play like snipers are designed to be played with, not as a sniper

                I hate when my scope is jumping all over the place, sometimes I just fire off a desperate round hoping to kill the person! Haha most of the time it fails, but every now and then it works and saves my ass!

              • It's funny watching people complain about what weapon type should be banned from crucible. They need to adapt to the situation. Snipers are meant to kill the opponent if you hit them on the head. The head is not big and it's a hard target to hit. If you don't move and get sniped, it's your own fault. I've tried using snipers and it's pretty difficult. It's easier just to use shotguns for close range and pulse rifle or scout for mid to long distance. Snipers are not easy to use and if that's your goto weapon in crucible than all the power to you!

                • Here's what your going to do. Your going to add your title to your description. Your going to copy your description. Your going to paste your description on every "NERF SNIPERS" post you find. This is proof enough that "Git gud" is an actual step in beating players, and that it ain't the sniper. It's the player.
