I just lost four matches in a row and I lost count how many times I've gotten blained in the head.
Before someone tells me stop running into sniper lanes, trust me, I know how to play against snipers. I'm also using a scout rifle with single point sling to make me harder to hit. I also have another scout with high caliber rounds.
If I'm shooting a guy 3 times in the head with my scout rifle, he should not be able to headshot me back so easily. Unfortunately this happens way too often in destiny and it is complete bs. I just lost my last game on the final kill to this scenario.
The only other option is to charge the opponent and battle close quarters. Well guess what. They're using TLW like 90% of the time.
Honestly Bungie. It's been 2 years and this has been a problem for too long. Fix it. It doesn't make sense that the same 5 weapons are being used in all competitive modes, in a game which has hundreds of weapons.
I'm sick of being forced to use the same loadout over and over just to be able to compete. SBMM has made every match I get into super sweaty, so if I use any of the odd guns, I'm putting myself at a huge disadvantage.
I don't mind SBMM. Just fix the game so that all guns can be used. Not just 5.
Add more flinch to snipers.

2 RepliesSnipers already have plenty of flinch. Anyone who says they don't, most likely barely snipes. If a person is able to shoot a precision shot on you while getting pelted by a scout, you just got out played. Simple as that.

8 RepliesWhy do ppl cry when they get out played. Participation trophy generation FTW
-
4 RepliesDescope on impact.... Take aim assist away or minimize it... Makes snipers find advantageous positions which is what sniping is really about
-
We need a team snipers game mode for these people, and one mode for who like to use main weapons (like me).
-
1 ReplyUse slow firing auto with high impact. Don't stand still EVER when against snipers. And some snipers are good no matter what you do its just how the game is
-
2 Replies*sigh* if they nerf snipers, people will use something else and cause it to get nerfed. They need to change snipers so hard scoping has a down side and so people will be aggressive with them.

1 ReplyEdited by Inb4ban: 7/12/2016 1:56:00 AMI'll give some tips for countering snipers 1. Most of the time the best way to counter snipers is to hide if they are far way and if you notice them. (Hard to miss with red glare) eventually the will move on 2.I found high impact handcannon a such as Hawkmoon and esayluna are perfect for taking down snipes, since a bone dry stock version of the esayluna will 3 hit kill with 2 body shots and a headshot. 3.Join the meta. There's a reason meta weapons exist, and that is because they are good. Find one that will flinch snipers (hacksaw, high impact guns, MIDA multi tool etc.) and learn how to effective use it to flinch snipers 4. Know your maps. Basic knowledge of the map you are playing in can save you from a sniper. (Example, snipers on verdigo tend to hide in the floating platform on the edge of the map.simply find the teleporter and teleport behind Him and put a shell in his head)

Edited by Nerevar: 7/12/2016 1:56:19 AMI agree. It's dumb how many times I'll land 2-3 bursts into a guy with hawksaw and he'll dome me without missing a beat. Snipers do need to get flinched more while they are scoped. Keep the aim assist or whatever fine. But flinch needs to be increased. It was fine in year 1 since primaries were strong enough to melt them before they could line up their shot, but now primaries have been nerfed several times and shotguns too, snipers need some rebalancing as well to account for that. If they were kept as they are now but just flinched more I'd be fine with them. Maybe reduce bodyshot damage a bit on the higher impact snipers.

4 RepliesThe only thing that I think should be fixed are the head glitches. If I can't see your lense flare or your head all together, you should be able to pick me off.
-
Nah but to be serious bro no weapons or classes are ruining crucible, you just gotta keep practicing and use weapons your most comfortable using.
-
Bro...please git gud.

5 RepliesThere is a way to counter everything using just about anything. That's how I feel. Get busy living or get busy dying. If you want to play casually then do that, and don't get mad while you're busy dying. Have fun instead. I just don't get all this ish man. These rants and raves... All this crying, especially from players who more than not get phuccing busy with their awesome skill. In my mind people a few bad games and they lose their phuccing minds. They come to these forums and cry "Nerf this! Eliminate that!" Never, and I mean never, does anyone ever admit they may have just got caught slipping. It's always something external that is to blame. I refuse to believe that for every goddamn instance like it comes across with these nerf posts.

1 ReplyAdd more flinch to snipers is the ONLY thing I can agree with you on. This is a game about getting loot and becoming more powerful, therefor guns and armour need to be better than others, and also need to be rare than others. If every gun can compete with eachother, then what is the point of even looking for better loot in the first place? Right now, crucible is more varied and balanced than it has ever been, the only reason people are complaining is because of SBMM. I think you just need to except that there will always be the superior guns, those 'superior guns' will always be used in competitive gamemodes more than anything. In trials I used queenbreakers and judith-d. I outplay every grasp of malok, tlw and hawksaw user by simply being accurate. If you truly dont want to use the same loadout there is guns out there that are better. They are just harder to use and take more time to master.
-
Bro. I don't know what class you run but I'll leave you this. Hunter,radiant dance machines,jade rabbit and strafe=profit. Had a guy with the breaker giving me grief earlier. Broke out the rabbit and shut him the fck down 2 matches in a row.
-
Whenever I shotgun I always get the kill on a sniper unless the swap to the universal. It's all about movement, if you keep running an a straight line your a clear target, the more you move the harder you are to get hit, simple. Not to mention that snipers actually need skill to aim and get a headshot unlike shotguns where you don't even need to aim. It all depends on skill with the shotguns.
-
5 RepliesSome ppl are saying nerf snipers. Others are saying buff the other guns and not nerf snipers. Im just wondering if you realize youre all saying the same thing? Either action will even things out as far as snipers go. So whats with the bickering?

2 RepliesPreach and don't forget how much twitch and trials Carries for money has ruined trials

3 RepliesI'm sorry for this but: I have never complained about any -blam!-ing weapon, not even when -blam!-ing Thorn meta was reigning supreme. You either play the game and accept the fact and the soul meaning of -blam!-ing competitive gaming or you keep to mass effect for -blam!- sake. So tired of reading bs like this in 98% of the posts. I don't use a sniper, I use shotgun or sidearm and I -blam!-ing applaud the ones using snipers. TLW? Sure it can get annoying but you can use Universal remote or conspiracy for that. OUTSMART the snipers, I killed three snipers in a skirmish match earlier today with a -blam!-ing dredfang. I used arc hunter, cloaked and ran up from behind. Easy as -blam!-.
-
This is honestly one of my biggest concerns as well. I can't tell you how many times I've been sniped while drilling the person in the head. Granted, I've gotten my own fair share of super aim-assisted headshots, and I know I'm not the best sniper. I think the hitboxes need to be tweaked in Destiny 2 or getting hit while scoped makes you flinch like crazy
-
NO MORE NERFS BUFF SHOTGUNS BUFF HIGH CALIBER ROUNDS BUT DON'T NERF SNIPERS
-
Most snipers by now understand flinching and how it works so they aim low once they get flinched.

5 RepliesJade rabbit 3 shots to the head and the sniper is dead.
