Snipers...
Most of you will scream "Leave them be!", but it's gone too far.
What needs to happen: Snipers new less aim assist, AND (here comes the big one) WEAPON SWAY!
Not only will weapon sway deter res-sniping, hard scoping, super shutting down, and the like, but it will actually bring be way more satisfying when you do get those head shots.
Say what you will, but snipers need to be nerfed in some way, and I feel that weapon sway is the easiest and gentlest form of that.

Snipers haven't changed, the meta has thanks to the nerf-conga line we've had with Bungie. The result is a majority of players unwilling to engage in a more in your face, high mobility firefight and stay as far away from opponents as possible. I see a lot more camping than I used to as well. Interesting that some people predicted exactly what we're experiencing now when they read the nerfs that would come with year 2. It's a shame really. The closer, high mobility play style is much more dynamic. I find it to be more fun.

2 RepliesAnother plebian that has no clue what Aim Assist actually does. Pipe down; it's due to whiny and asinine nerf herders like you that we have a sniper meta.

1 ReplyAim assist has been ridiculous. I've been complaining for the past 3-4 months.

Just remove the short range scopes. And maybe AA from perks n scopes.

6 RepliesWhy can't bungie just do with what Halo did descope if you get hit I wouldn't complain then

Never weapon sway, I'm a supersoldier. Never reduce aim assist, or else all other weapons would have to be nerfed also. Instead, increase zoom across the board to make it stay a long range weapon as it seems to creep into even shotgun territory with a body shot plus melee. Also, reduce base damage and increase precision damage to make body shots a 3 shot kill, necks a 2 shot, and headshots stay at 1. Then people won't want to spray you down because it's a waste of ammo. Anything that I missed?

How about unscope if headshot?

1 ReplyIt already has an incredible amount of flinch. The no land beyond does sway and it can still res snipe with a bit of skill (not much since I'm able to do it.) If you think it is easy to snipe you are not sniping.
