Sniper rifles do not have magnetism...

I'm tired of commenting on "Nerf sniprs bcuz dey bend duh bulits" posts. Guys. The information is out there. Face the facts. Sniper rifles [i]do not[/i] bend bullets. Aim assist on sniper rifles, I repeat, [i]DOES NOT[/i] give them bullet magnetism. It [i]does[/i] give them "sticky" scopes. So, if you want to prove me otherwise (and convince me that they do, in fact, have bullet magnetism), then think for a second. If they [i]do[/i] have magnetism, recordings of PvP that feature even a little bit of sniping, even if they weren't filmed expressly to show if there is or isn't magnetism, should pretty clearly show magnetism. But for some reason, I've never seen a giant slew of tapes showing blatantly bending bullets hit the internet. So please, enlighten me. Or just think critically about all the footage you've seen. Or perhaps you already know how sniper rifles work. Edit: Thank you, stranger for posting a link somewhere below. I'm linking to your comment. https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/181671534/0/0/1 Thank you, TurkeyMoss, for this highly informative link. No matter where you stand on the sniper rifle debate, this will help you. https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/181843987/0/0/1

  • Doesn't have to. Any reject can scope down a critical chokepoint at head level, and the sticky scope gives them a big enough time window to react and get a kill by pulling the trigger. That's the issue with snipers atm. That anyone can get cheap and easy kills. That, coupled with the abundance of special ammo is what annoys the playerbase. Anyone can pick up a rifle, use it as a primary, and nail people. -An unbiased Sniper.
