Bungie has taken action on shotguns but has done nothing about snipers. The major problem is snipers can play through the whole match with nothing but a sniper. Special ammo my ass. There's nothing special about it if you can get it through the whole match. It should drop along with heavy ammo so you would have to choose which one you will pick up.
Also, i find myself fighting snipers up close to mid-range. Players will say to keep out of sniper lanes, but snipers are everywhere. There is no escape. Lol. It should be impossible for snipers to be able to kill you at a close range. Snipers are a long distance weapon. It's like a shotgun killing someone from across the map.
Finally, snipers don't seem to be bothered by being shot at. I can blast a sniper with whatever weapon, including heavy machine guns, and they just stand there and snipe me in the head. Not sure if this is lag or what. But it's infuriating. You should not be able to snipe under fire. That's why snipers belong at long distances. I'm not really calling for a nerf just limit special ammo to where you can't troll with your special through the whole match.
Edit 1: Lol, look at all the snipers giving me hate. Sniper rifles are on the chopping block at Bungie headquarters as we speak. Just a matter of time before something is done. It's Ok, if it makes you feel better to attack me then go ahead. Come at me haters.

Atleast they have a high skillcap (and don't tell me that because of high AA they don't have a relatively high skill cap, I wouldn't mind the AA getting nerfed either but unless you are actually a sniper your opinion on the skill needed to use one is regrettably invalid)
-
haha you're funny
-
I agree with you. I hate snipers so much. They are the bane of my existence
-
They should just cut the aim assist that shit is ridiculous, also it feels like they buffed the special ammo spawns again.
-
Have you tried sniping while getting hit by a pulse rifle, it's impossible, the flinch caused by PR's is ridiculous
-
Wait you mean the option to fixing the problem is special ammo? The same fix offered in year 1 when shotguns were rampant? Say it isn't so....

4 RepliesOMG would you whiners just Shut The -blam!- Up! No one -blam!-ing cares!!!! Seriously if I ever met one of these destiny cry babies I would beat the shit out of them. And gladly spend the time in jail. I've been playing destiny since day 1 and never complained about the game in any forum.

0 raid completions lol just thought I'd point that out.

1 ReplyI wish I could see how you NERF whiners socialize with women.It would be oh so comical
-
If you was any good with 1 you wouldnt be asking for a nerf would you!
-
Snipers haven't changed much since the beginning. Don't give me that aim assist nonsense because a lot of year 1 snipers had around that much if not more than the amount now. If it's taken this long to complain about snipers in general (and not perks on them like Final Round), then people just have nothing else to complain about.
-
Get 4k grimoire then people will respect Ps- when u stop complaining like a little bitch people also like u more
-
Remember when people said the same thing about shotguns? Those people are still bitching.
-
If you're getting killed at close range by a sniper that's no fault of the sniper rifle, just the man behind the rifle
-
Special ammo should be taken out of game. Start with 6 or 10 rounds.

1 ReplyYou just suck lol

It really falls back on the pulse rifle meta. People stay at distance and camp long sight lines despite the CQC nature of the maps simply because other than shotguns what are you going to use effectively at close range?
-
7 RepliesSnipers are not the problem and most people that complain about aim assist don't even know what it is.
-
2 RepliesPVP maps are small and cater to CQC. If you refuse to try to flank a sniper with a decent shotty, no one can help you.
-
A bunch of Sniping scrubs got really offended by op. I do believe it's a problem as well why is it any different than a person using a shotgun the entire match its essentially the same thing
-
3 RepliesYou're calling everyone a hater when you're being butt hurt over a you-problem? Yeah dude, that sounds valid.
-
1 ReplyNo God dammit, you f****** people constantly bitching are missing up everything. Try using good tactics, like get in close. Don't stand half way across the map and be pissed when a sniper kills you. Try avoiding a whole team of AWP'S in CS source back in the day. That thing could toe shoot you and kill you.
-
3 RepliesNearly all the maps are CQC centric. Snipers have a extremely limited range of motion in terms of positioning on map. If you can't see that and counter it then sorry about your luck
-
6 RepliesHow is this even a problem? Just keep jumping and moving. Don't stand still. I snipe a lot and I'm a horrible at it. All you need to do is move. You'd be surprise how many people stand still when they see a sniper. It's kinda funny actually

Whiney Bitch much?
