Try strafing then. Plenty of players were fine with snipers in year 1, I don't see why it's that big of a deal to do that now. No offense, but it seems like the people who want NLB nerfed are the ones who just want the game easier for them because they can't counter it.

NLB needs a massive nerf

What I do not get, is the people saying its so simple to use have less then 1000 kills with it? Should you be able to use a gun before you draw an opinion.

There is NO flinch. There is the flinch animation, but it does not actually flinch. There are videos testing and proving it. All they need to do is code it to actually have flinch like Snipers that are Special Weapons.

Had a match w/ player using NLB & they went uncontested because of the lack of flinch & the retarded special ammo nerf.

It needs to be addressed. In a game like trials where every death counts, you should not be punished like this. A good snipe now and then doesn't bother me. When I'm pumping high cal rounds and still constantly get blained, there is a problem.

Hey sir, read this. https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/222489833/0/0

I've devised the perfect strategy for countering NLB. It's easier to show you than tell you. You must follow the ending 100% accurately and you too will make NLB user's look like the worst players in the game. Oh and turn the volume down, it's quite loud. http://xboxclips.com/Almost+Wealthy/993bc580-79e0-4d98-be1b-45dc5f8dc95a

To be honest NLB needs to be taken out of the game.

True Vanguard, one of the better NLB players, already countered this argument nearly three months ago. Any argument anyone has had so far has been disproved. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AOK8ns7umO4&t=318s). In case if, and probably most, of you ragers who don't actually watch the video here is a summary of the "no flinch" argument. Saying it doesn't have flinch is wrong, it does have flinch. However unlike other snipers the NLB doesn't shoot in the direction that the Iron sights (it's own unique sight it has) is pointing while being flinched. TV, as stated before one of the better NLB players, states that at his best, a guy known for his sniping, 1/3 of his normal feet on ground engagements he will be able to land the headshot if shot first. 33%. A guy whom I'm willing to wager is vastly better at sniping then the average player can only land 33% of his shots if shot first. That is not even 50% of the time. This not only dismantles the no flinch argument but also disproves the even weaker argument that "Most of the time if I land the first shot the other guy still headshots me." Oh and the fact is this: It hasn't been nerfed at all since its inception into the game. No one has complained about it until recently. The fact that it hasn't been nerfed once over the course of every expansion, never once within 3 years, proves that the gun is not OP nor is it anything you claim it to be. Where were your "NERF THIS IZ OP" posts back in the beginning? How about across all of HoW or TTK? If a gun hasn't been touched, and hasn't been cried about, for destiny's entire life span until now that can only mean one of two things. Either one the gun is completely balanced or B your just mad that people are still beating you at a video game and you don't like that. I'm willing to wager that both options are correct. Also it's bungies game. They created the gun and they have never decided to nerf it. What does all of this say about your argument(s)? Hint: It's wrong. You people who always cry "adapt" when someone wants to nerf something you use? It's your turn now. Adapt. (Also for any of you trials junkies, here's another video explaining how quickly you can dismantle anyone, or any team, using the NLB: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3l2sUF8cIes)

It is not OP. The only reason people are using it, is because Bungie killed the either snipers by increasing flinch to where it's almost impossible to land a shot now. They also killed special. If someone likes to snipe, why wouldn't they use a sniper where you respawn with ammo?

People complaining about no land, really? I remember people being super disappointed by how much of a joke it was

I find it funny that people claim that the reload glitch isn't a glitch, but when it won't fire after you glitch, that's considered a glitch..... Smh. People claiming it takes skill is a joke as well. I've been using it for over a week, after never touching it. The reload glitch is simple, no flinch. When it jams, sure that's annoying but every single weapon does it. That's not a glitch, everyone needs to understand that. I'm not really for nerfing no land, honestly. It's sad that what was once considered one of the worst is now one of the best. There could be a better solution.

Woohoo another cry baby wanting a nerf and while I type this you are streaming. Wow, you know what I think? I think that you streamers are cancer and must be treated as such. Get over it. If you keep getting killed by the same person every round using the same gun (NLB). Then it sounds that you were the problem and not the gun in question.

Your complaining about nlb really that has got to be the stupidest crap I've heard of it takes skill to use. As a matter of fact it's the hardest gun to get good with which is why they haven't needed or buffed it because how balanced it is. You people are amazing I'll tell you
