10/10 would ruin crucible. No sniper can be allowed to not have a scope
English
-
No Land Beyond had no scope. There was a scope called ViewTac SLH20 which was just zoomed scout rifle scope for snipers🤷♂️
-
Not saying it was the only one
-
I understand, but just saying that there were plenty of snipers that didnt have "scopes" in D1, they were actually ass lol
-
I don't believe that. There is a reason that lower zoom has always been preferred on snipers. Plus, d1 actually had a few decently sized maps unlike d2
-
(no land beyond exist, and a reduction to aim asist would be added
-
No land beyond was broken. The ONLY reason that it wasn't king was because there was 1000 yard
-
Lmao for most of destinys life it was looked at as one of the worst weapons in the game.

By who??

-
Icebreaker was only broken because they removed all special ammo. NLB was a far better and easier gun to use. You say it felt better? I'm not sure about you, but most people use that to exuse the fact that a weapon is blatantly op. I have been guilty of this at times as well. What do you mean when you say that, specifically.
-
felt better because there wasn’t a HUGE ASS SCOPE covering my screen. Also I will admit, the weapon is easy to use, but i really only used it for mid-close ran encounters, as it seemed to work great in those. I honestly never thought it was op, it was just a fun weapon to use in my eyes. I will agree with you on one thing. Having it in D2 would hurt crucible. Hell any sniper would considering the ridiculous aim assist.
-
The scope issue is kinda my point though. Having a scope is one of, if not the, greatest drawbacks of using a sniper. To remove that is no different in my eyes than backup plan pre nerf. I will admit that NLB was a funny weapon. My team and I would all wear the God of war shader and pretend we were the British with it in crucible. Friring from the hip while in a line. It was hilarious. Needless to say we lost a lot.
-
That was NLBs point, as it was a older time sniper. i feel like removing the scope was great, but i see your point. It was an exotic for a reason. removing the scope would also mean that longer distance fights would be difficult for it. Atleast, that’s what bungie intended. Don’t think it went down like that though. Also the hipfire on it was whack, to say the least.

Edited by Daylight Begins: 5/30/2020 5:03:47 PMThe problem is that, especially in d2, there are no true long range encounters. All of the maps max out at what I would call mid range or mid-long.
-
I have to agree with you there. There really are no long distance maps. Those went away with combined arms.
-
I miss the variety D1. Loved constantly switching my loadouts and playstyle depending on the map size.

Very sadly true. I miss skyshock.
