The sniper meta is your fault nerf babies

[b]No nerfs only buffs[/b] I don't care if it's the fusion rifle meta again, at least i knew those require way more skill to use. You complain about using shotties like a primary, despite snipers watching a hallway the entire match Solution: bring the red death and mida back to glory, along with the spare change, those where the primaries meant to shut those down, along with every other primary, you know why? [u]because no gun had rediculous range falloffs[/u] List of primaries that could challenge snipers before nerf: Spare change Thorn Mida Suros regime Red death Any gun with the old max range

  • 'Sniper meta' Shotguns still have more kills than snipers

    • Sniper whores simply need increased flinch when taking bullets while scoping. Watch the next sniper adjustment will be flinch.

        I'm sorry to say it is really bungies fault...sorry guys 👍🏼 I don't know if the headshot hitbox is too big or what, I just know that the percentage of one hit kills is too high. The real question is how to correct it 🤔

        • How about stay out of sniping lanes? Everyone and thier mother is trying to snipe. I switched to a shotty last weekend for trials and completely destroyed all of my competition. Learn map layouts and know your competition. Scout rifle/shotty will do just fine on any map.

          • Nerfing did have a hand in the sniper meta, but it isn't the biggest contributor, in my opinion. It's the popularization of the "elite MLG sniper", the prevalence of the "only people with high kds are good", and the idea that sniping is the pinnacle of video game pvp mastery. All these are lies that the mindless masses readily embrace because why thunk for yourself when someone else can do that for you.

          • Bruh, why you crying about snipers when your grim shows that your Shotguns have the third highest amount of kills behind scouts and autos out of all your weapons used. Just say what you want to say, bruh, you miss shotguns being OP. It's cool, just be honest.

              • What I've noticed is that the community will complain that primaries such as thorn and doctrine are too strong. After the nerfs, they say snipers are too strong because no primary can compete anymore. What kind of logic is that?

                • Dunno what the big deal is. Im am terrible crucible player i can run around with sniper taking gaurdians out on the ground and in the air. And mida is still valid counter to sniper, just move around and hope the other guy sucks with rifle.

                  • The idiotic shotgun nerfs caused the sniper meta. Nobody rushes anymore. They just camp in their spawn and hardscope. Destiny's shotguns are the worst in FPS gaming. Shotguns are supposed to be lethal way past melee range. Buff them and handcannons to pre 2.0 settings.

                    • I liked the hand cannon meta. It felt fast, and almost like a hardcore game mode. Kills were so quick that it was about quick spotting and drag shots. Which to me, is more skilled than lobbing nades amd hiding with a sniper.

                          • What needs to happen is more smaller maps need to be in rotation(like anomaly) and in 3v3 modes they should have kept it where you don't start off with special...I don't even snipe but the descoping thing?just imagine that in PVE...that shit would be annoying!!!

                            • Grasp of Malok and Pdx-45 with good stability will challenge snipers, even get you some hatemail... Snipers don't like being killed by weapons that can kill effectively outside of their range... I mean they really REALLY don't like it...

                                    • Exactly. They severely crippled the ability to effectively counter snipers by nerfing primaries so bad. That is why so many people use snipers - they are the quickest ttk if you can land that headshot. Plus, with Mida gone, they are more rampant than ever. Snipers are not broken. Everything else is. They need to add more flinch to them, so they can't stay scoped in while your putting rounds into their head and still effectively shoot back at you. That is the only thing they need to do to snipers.

                                            Why do people think MIDA was neutered? The only thing they took was the HCR, which did virtually nothing in PvP. It's a PvE perk. It's still the fastest 4-shot scout rifle out there, with excellent recoil control, a Godly 90 aim assist, maxed-out reload speed, Third Eye, either +6 Agility with the perk or +8 with that and Lightweight, a hair-trigger rate-of-fire and the largest magazine size available on a scout rifle.
