Snipers should descope when taking fire. Try not to cry, snipers.

Really getting sick and tired of shooting snipers in the head with my pulses and scouts as they just stand there and proceed to get a head shot. Or, snipers getting body shots under fire and then finishing me off with TLW. A simple solution to this problem is having snipers descope when getting hit.

  • An even simpler solution would be for you to get good.

    • I'm sorry but if you have the jump on a sniper that that isn't even looking at you and you can't kill them it's a failure on your part and your team. Now if you think you're going to walk into a sniper lane with one scopped waiting on you to try and primary them to death you deserve to die.

    • Snipers have no skill. They get easy kills like pre nerf Thorn.

      • Bungie should do these changes first. 1. Change the sniper animation to make stots more obvious from reasonable range. 2. Provide the data of Sniper performance under fire.

        I played tlou pvp and sniper get a lot of flinch when getting hit especially by a rapid firing gun, game should reward quick and precise headshots not encourage hardscope at doors or spawn points and campers and bodyshot + primary. It makes a sniper look lame. If me a lousy sniper can fire back while getting hit, somethings not right.

      • You should know exactly how to balance snipers, what with your 7 kills.

      • Ewww no. The special ammo nerf is enough. Also try out sniping for yourself.

        • Then they need to have hip fire accuracy like halo, reason de-scope works in halo is all weapons can be fired from the hip with 100% accuracy. If snipers de-scope, so should the pulses, scouts, auto rifles etc. If a 50 cal bullet doesn't cause you to de scope on pulse or a scout why should the pea shooters cause the sniper to de-scope. You can't only implement this function on one weapon and not the rest of the long ranged scoped weapons.

          • If they do this then there should be a sniper hip fire reticle. I think this was in halo, it make snipers better.

            • Snipers when shot while scoped in get hit by recoil. They don't just stay perfectly still like you're implying. If you're pegging a sniper and he still gets that head shot off, he's just better than you. I'm sure that happens often, as you seem to be a complainer. Try not to cry though, non-sniper.

              • It sounds like you just want to make all snipers into hardscoped campers. Because this would kill aggressive play. A more reasonable thing would be to increase flinching and have a small sway recovery period after being hit. But honestly, I don't know how people pull of headshots with their snipers when talking hits anyway. I know when I'm getting hit my scope flinches all over the place. Occasionally I'll still get a lucky headshot off while being shot.

                You're tired of dying to snipers, so your solution is to make them [i]unusable[/i]? Get out of here. Descoping [b]WILL NOT[/b] work in Destiny. It worked in Halo because "noscoping" or shooting while not ADS was extremely accurate...the bullet traveled exactly where your marker was aimed. The no scope accuracy with snipers in Destiny is [b]atrocious[/b]. EDIT - OP has [b]0 kills[/b] with Sniper in PVP. Most kills coming from Super, Heavy Machine Gun and Shotgun. LMAO I can't even....

                • Descope when their shield breaks is better IMO.
