Sorry Snipers are not Scout Rifles, they are for shooting from a distance at a set position, not run and gun

So you promote camping and hard scoping? Fine. All I'm saying is that hardscoping is really easy to do and 'run and gun' play style actually requires skill to do well at. You have to practice to do well at it.
-
No, the people who use snipers support hard scoping, I'm just telling you what snipers are supposed to do. Camping and hard scoping is the definition of sniper, so if your against camping and hard scoping use a different gun.

Do you see snipers in the real world spinning around and getting head shots with their rifle? No? What do real snipers do? Oh right camp in a spot waiting for a clear shot get the kill or kills and move to another spot and repeat the process. Camping is what snipers are meant to do not run into a room get hit a bunch and walk away from the fire fight with 2-3 head shot kills.

Your comparing a game to the real world!! Hahahaha! A sniper is a sniper and in a game it doesn't matter how it is used

Actually it does, remember shotguns? Snipers cried nerf and now shotguns have to be touching the target to kill them mean while herp derp sniper walks in close gets a headshot and another and another all while being shot and still manages to live.

Shotguns were overpowered in the felwinter days. I agree that they were hit a little too hard but in my opinion I think they should make shotguns a one hit kill only from headshots like the chaperone while also increasing the range. No doubt about it that snipers need a nerf in their current state but they are targeting the more skilled players instead of the actual problems.

Wow your reply confirmed that you have terrible tastes in gameplay. Im done with this you clearly have no clue what the difference between fun but fair and fun but unfair is.

^This. I get ridiculously confounded when I see a player running and jumping around like a jack rabbit sniping people from 10 feet. Totally stupid! That's not what sniper rifles are for. More confusing is how they hip fire, not even using the scope. And don't even get me started on "quick-scoping". The lack of real life mechanics in that "pull to scope, but don't actually use the scope, fire before you see the target and SOMEHOW aim-assist does the work for you" leaves me completely dumbfounded. :-/

Your comparing a game to real life... Quickscoping requires skill to do where as hardscoping is really easy to do but I do agree that bungie need to tone down the aim assist on snipers.
-
Well now you can learn how to do something else, have fun LOL

Personally, I think quick-scoping is tantamount to cheating. It's abusing a game mechanic. The only "skill" involved is timing. Timing the exact millisecond your character is blind as to force the computer to aim for you. HIP FIRING a sniper rifle takes more skill than it does to quick-scope.
