Sniper rifles are too game breaking in the crucible.
I'm sure a ton of people are about to be very negative about this, but sniper rifles are more over powered right now, then shotgun's were when the game released. I've seen one too many times, someone just standing there aiming down their sights, you proceed to light up their head, and in 1 second boom. You're dead. Everytime I have used a sniper and been shot at, my scope jumps and the shot goes where the sight is at. There is no way someone getting shot at should be able to accurately aim for the head.

3 RepliesSolution: They're good. You're not. No offence. You did say it yourself, sniper players have countered back with a headshot while getting shot at to kill you quickly. You've tried it, but it didn't go your way. You attempted the same strategy, but since it didn't work for YOU, it's OP. Personally, I don't see them OP. I just stay in places where they have a disadvantage.

8 RepliesClose range sniping while both players are running or jumping through the air is the most broken part of destiny there has ever been IMO!

2 RepliesThey r definitely better than other weapons atm but that's just because they're basically the only original special weapons to not b nerfed. This shows me that instead of nerfing them to make another special weapon OP (sidearms would b next) we should buff shotguns FR's and sidearms to contend with snipers, and while we r at it lets buff most of the primaries back to when they were all good, no AR nerf, first PR buff, slight reduction to range on original HC's but that's it. First nerf to TLW thorn and suros, and the vex post buff. All specials stay day one values, except sidearms get a buff to b 3 shots to the head because there was a huge variety of special weapons in year one. Special ammo drops should b reverted back to year one drop rates, same with heavy ammo. Heavy ammo drops when u kill an enemy with heavy ammo, same with special ammo. Scouts get a slight buff to become useable. Arc bolt buffed to do 120 damage, arc blade buffed to one shot any super (unless given bonus armor by perk in subclass) sunsinger put back to original everything (including fire bolts and Viking funeral, suck it up they weren't OP) any Hunter nerf added in last update is reverted cause those were unneeded (except the smoke nerf) twilight garrisons nerf is removed, Titans stay the same fairly balanced. This would b the perfect meta imo

4 RepliesEvery gun that could challenge a sniper has been nerfed. Think about it before asking for nerfs

You cannot snipe anymore because they took away most of the Ammo. Just deal with it and learn the maps so you don't have to deal with Snipers.
-
So you are mad that people are pulling off good shots that you cannot hit? Wow.

Get out. People like you ruin both PvP and PvE for the rest of us. Nothing is broken.

I'm not saying buff or nurf anything. I'm simply saying the sniper rifles are broken. You should not be able to quickscope someone 5 feet infront of you, or even have perfect accuracy under fire. Another thing that's game breaking about them is the ability to instantly kill someone within seconds of that person being revived over shield and all. No other weapon in the game can do that in one shot. Sniper rifles are more powerful than the Vex Mythoclast was before it was severely neutered.

Not to mention the rez snipes

Rebuff thorn to yr 1 status and watch as the snipers just dissapear

3 RepliesAgreed, getting quick scoped at 5 feet away by the same person 5 times in a row is not balanced. Those who protect snipers are scrubs because they say it takes skill, so you guys know, snipers do not take skill.

I agree its a problem they need to fix but it isnt as bad as shotguns yr 1. Dont peak snipers when u see them looking down scope. They need to make recoil on scopes more random and more jarring

10 RepliesHonestly they need to buff shotguns again, not to what they were in year 1, but at least increase the damage and range, you can shotgun people from 5 feet away and not always kills

I played a match earlier against a 5 man squad using all snipers primary and special. I enjoyed -blam!- them. It was on asylum no less.
