I'm mystified as to how revives are detrimental to elimination meta, but apparently res sniping is just fine? Is there no easy fix for it or is it just not considered a problem? I've reached the point where I don't even bother with revive enabled 3v3 anymore because there's invariably some jerk camping bottom tree in bannerfall with their little red dot trained on my ghost, who'll gleefully pick me off three times in a row if I'm unfortunate enough to have a team mate who just doesn't know better. Or even worse, someone in the freelance playlist who conveniently happens to have the same clan tag as the opponent who's sniping me. It's the single most frustrating aspect of any pvp game I've ever encountered and I'm so sick of it. It's not skill to sit somewhere with your scope trained on a non mobile target so you can get a cheap kill on someone who literally can't do anything because they're locked in an animation. Like at this point I'll even take back the HoW shotgun meta where it was fellwinters lie killing me from across the room instead of 1000 yard stare. At least then I had a chance to return favor.
Like I really can't overstate how tired I am of it. How tired I am of this snipe heavy meta. How tired I am of watching bungie apparently try to appeal to what feels like the most elitist, most obnoxious subset of pvp players who excuse cheap tactics as gun skill. I'm tired of getting taunted and teabagged by some dude who can stand in a hallway and aim at a spot above my stationary, glowing target of an orb.

Agreed this is getting ridiculous

6 AntwortenBearbeitet von elemenopee: 4/6/2016 8:30:13 PMThey just made it easier to get res sniped AND to get sniped while trying to revive. Just horrible. Never playing trials again. The 2 extra sniper aiming frames will not help me.

Oh I agree. At least in Felwinters days games moved, and didn't stalemate due to a long range weapon. Gladly would take that in a heartbeat

I'll bump this 1000 times, I've made posted about this as well, Rez sniping is cheap, bottom line, camping an orb for a free kill is lame and cheap, if your that good of a sniper kill the guy getting the Rez, so cheap, I hope they do something about this.
-
Bungie... Everyone seems to hate res sniping but only a select few snipers can do it. So let's make every sniper be able to do it!

9 AntwortenI've realized something with this topic, all the guys who argue to keep Rez sniping in the game are the same pussies camping your orb waiting for you to get revived for a free cheap kill. They are prob the same people who complain about getting killed by a camper and here they are just sitting in one spot hard scoped on your orb. If your that good, kill the guy before he gets the Rez, simple as that. Time for this community to wake up and see that Rez sniping is a cheap tactic. And stop agreeing with Rez sniping because it gets you a free kill and pads your KD!

5 AntwortenIt's a simple fix add sway to snipers this must be the only game that a sniper stays still hence why every one uses them

8 AntwortenSo you should be allowed to come right back to life that easily since you died? If you died in the first place, it shouldnt be easy to come back to life fam. If you don't want to deal with res sniping then don't die in the game.
-
1 AntwortenAll you trash kids saying res sniping is needed oh you shouldn't be rewarded for dying, but here's a simple solution how about push up on the orb instead hiding sniping down a hallway cause you don't have the gun skill to out gun anyone except aim for body shots I snipe I fusion rifle and shotgun but you know why I'm different from you scum who clutch there secondaries for dear life is cause I can out gun you with literally any primary weapon instead of complaining about oh you shouldn't be awarded how about you take the rest of the team out instead of focusing on the rez sniping.

Considering there is armor that gives you super energy from revives and coupling that with quick revive spam reviving is just rewarding players for dying which is not a good thing. If you die in an elimination style game mode then you should be punished for it not rewarded.
-
I think in an elimination game type there should be no ressing unless you get killed by the architects or misadventure. Anyone agree with me?
-
Tomorrow is about to make res sniping a Bigger Curse .......
-
So you shouldn't be able to die after you are resed?
-
Get rid of it? Nope. As of tomorrow it gets even easier. The only thing you can do is either stop whining or stop dying. Enjoy the new, weaker overshield!
-
Nope they just made it easier. You can't be rewarded for dieing

4 AntwortenBearbeitet von Señior Stiffy: 4/8/2016 12:18:33 AM3 Scenarios: Scenario 1: Say you died (say by a bodyshot) the opponents team gets 100 points, you get revived thats 50 for your team, the opponent res-snipes you, thats +110 points, so, 210 points to 50 points. Scenario 2: Now we make it so that there is no res-sniping, so again 100 points for the opponent (body kill), you get revived that's 50 for your team. But not just that, one, if not both of you have a overshield, and it's a now 2v1 (say he runs away, but there's nothing to hide behind.) You start to team shoot the opponent and kill him (say by bodyshot), that's 100 for the kill and 50 for an assist, so it is 100 points to 200 points, because they reward you for dying, and the killer can't counter it. Scenario 3: Now let say you die (again by a bodyshot) you teammate comes to revive you and the opponent, instead of aiming at the ghost, he is smart and skilled enough to quickly aim at the res-er... reviver, anyways, he kills the res-er and now the score is 210 to 0. Scenario 2 sounds the best... for you and your team, but now reverse the scenarios so now you are the sniper and you don't get as rewarded for having the skill to win the 1v1. Plus res-sniping can be countered, by your teammate pushing you after he reses you. Then again there is a counter for this as well. And in close-quarters it gets harder to res-snipe but skilled snipers should be rewarded for having the skill to perform well in tight situations [url=https://youtu.be/RtKizOrHGiY?t=2m4s]Here's an example for the close-quarters res-snipe during a Crimson Double match.[/url] (It is apart of my montage so there is music just a warning) I throw a grenade, get the kill and see the last enemy approaching. I miss the snipe and he regens his health, revives his teammate, and starts to shoot me and I become low. It becomes a 2v1 now, and they both have full health and an overshield and I have low health. Being revived is a reward because you get half a kill worth of/assist points and you get "more health", plus in some other games you can't be revived.

Learn to slide in.

How about removing all resurrections from trials
-
Just have a teammate push u or run in front of u, knocks the sniper off their sights u don't get killed
-
They made it harder to res Sumone to stop you from getting res snipped. Thanks a lot!
-
Bump, res sniping is for vaginas

Bearbeitet von magburner: 4/9/2016 1:43:17 PMDo you not get it? They do not want you coming back. Besides, there is far too much reviving in Trials, you can legitimately defeat team, only to be nobbled by quick reviving antics.
-
It's people like you who've ruined the game. You've done enough already. STFU.

2 AntwortenI not the greatest in trials and I don't snipe.. But sayin get rid of rez sniping really makes you sound weak...#betterteamates #getgud

Everything they have done should mean that every sniper class now can res snipe right? and on top of it there is the next reward for it. Their res timer next time will be much longer. If Bungie has done anything with this mechanic they have given it two thumbs up.
