Trials Of Osiris and snipers

This weekend in trials 1000 yard stare accounted for 23% of all kills, with about 40% of all kills being done by snipers. Next most common was auto rifles, more specifically doctrine with 10% of all kills! If sniping is as "difficult" as every had you believe, how have 40% of all kills been done by them? If 40% of all kills are snipers, that to me clearly doesn't demonstrate a difficult weapon to kill with? The sniper meta is just boring, getting one shot from 10 feet away after 2 headshot bursting them is no fun! FACT

  • It's a competitive game mode;the sniper rifle is a competitive weapon. For this reason, it should be expected.

  • Its crazy to me every time I see the stats, and understand that bungie sees this.. Must see their play time drastically dipping.... And they do nothing to make the game more fun again? This is the worst its ever been, which is a shame because the primaries are actually pretty balanced!! Its so -blam!-ing annoying, they get so close, but so far away. People do not want to play this sniping meta. It is not fun at all.

  • I'm not big into Trials because I can never find a team, but it does make sense that people will use the fastest TTK weapons in the most "competitive" playlist. Think about it. The majority of people who still play Destiny (and especially trials) are more or less veterans with hundreds of matches under their belts. If you had the option to pick a weapon that kills with one headshot at range wouldn't you chose it? The primary tactic people use in elimination game modes is getting a pick, then exploiting a numbers advantage to win the round. This tactic can also be seen in Halo 5's breakout, which is a similar game mode (usually the pick comes from the battle rifle, DMR, or a Kobe grenade). This passive play style is encouraged at the beginning of each round, which is why a majority of people use snipers in Destiny. It's a low risk play style with the possibility of high reward. I used snipers almost exclusively all the way through the reign of the Felwinter's lie, and when I hopped back on I have to admit that hitting consistent shots took me about 15-20 matches (Even with my Her Benevolence with Hidden Hand/Shortgaze/Snapshot from HoW), it's not "easy mode". Personally, I've been seeing the most variety of weapons in the crucible in a very long time (in the Clash/Control/Rift playlists), but it makes sense to me why snipers are dominant in trials. As for the balance of primaries, with the plethora of weapons in this game, there is always going to be one with the fastest TTK. If every single weapon killed in the same amount of time, there would be nothing to get excited for when searching for "God roll" PVP weapons. I've never owned a doctrine or played with one, but it doesn't make sense to me why some people rush auto rifle users with a scout rifle in CQB. Knowing the optimal range of a weapon and maintaining that range on the map is the key to any FPS. By the way, I don't claim to be a PVP God. Just an average player at best.
