Who else is fed up with these ignorant "nerf sniper" topics. Funny how they were never an issue prior to the final shotgun rebalancing now all the shotgun users want them nerfed
If you're one of the unintelligent and ignorant individuals who is crying for a sniper nerf either get better at crucible and find counters because there are many, Or alternatively stop playing the game.
The whole time since the game's release they have never been an issue among the community and now all of a sudden your shotguns are performing how intended you behave like children and request a sniper nerf?
Is this how everything is going to revolve around in the game, When a specific weapon is adjusted in game people will find a reason to complain about a nerf for something else even though that wasn't an issue prior to the adjustment.
Sniping in this game is not easy, Aim assist isn't what you think.
STOP COMPLAINING ABOUT AIM ASSIST AND RESEARCH IT FOR YOURSELVES.
It takes zero skill to brainlessly sprint/blink/crouch/slide upto someone point blank and pull the trigger or run around with your shotgun as your primary for the whole game as nearly every shotgunner I see in the game does.
Shotgunners push zero primary gunfight engagements unlike snipers who are forced to use their primaries to keep the kill streak alive.
Stop complaining because you have to work a little harder for those kills now.
Seeing these toxic threads on the forums every single time I come to check out some cool threads on the forums is so frustrating.

Nerf posts have ruined Destiny. Bungie has found justification in focusing solely on balancing pvp because 90% of the forums are demanding everything be balanced CoD or halo style. If we (as a community) offered suggestions to improved the game as a whole on a grand scale like nerf posts instead of "I'm tired of *insert weapon here* killing me in pvp, it's too op", this would be a different game. I blame the masses.

Snipers always been problem just shotguns were a bigger problem

Sniper nerf is coming, be ready for it. Enjoy your meta while it lasts.

Thank You... you took the words out of my mouth

While I agree sniper nerf posts are dumb, shotgunning as of now does take some skill. Not necessarily precision, but a different type of skill. Same goes with almost any gun or play style. [spoiler]excpet Titanfall's smart pistol -_-[/spoiler]

Constantly sneaking up on camping snipers and shotgunning them in the head is a blast - always followed by a taunt. Angering them enough to the point where they're constantly worried about you, or just pissed and want revenge, ruins the cohesion of the enemy team. Snipers have been the same since forever. They aren't the problem. Running into entire teams of snipers can be, though - as they make for a snore fest of a match.

I'm not a shotgunner but it seems like the super high impact is the only good shotgun archetype
-
Yep couldn't agree with you anymore.

Buff shotguns (just a little tiny bit. It's annoying when you hit someone point blank and they don't die but that could just be lag I don't know) Buff fusions. Buff pulses. No more nerfs. Just buffs to the underpowered things. Well, maybe a [i]couple[/i] of nerfs to a [i]few[/i] things.

2 Replies... at long engagements shotguners need a primary lol AT LEAST SHOTGUNS CAN'T QUICKSCOPE AT LONG RANGE!

You'll notice that what ever the meta is there will be an outcry on the forums I always get killed by x....well yes because it's the meta and everyone is using it. They cry nerf I'm tired of being killed by x, bungie of course tries to make the whiney -blam!-s happy, they nerf it, something new becomes the meta....they go right back to crying nerf. These whiney -blam!-s won't be happy until nothing can kill them. Same people who use god mode cheat codes in video games because it's to hard. It's ok bungie has nerfed this game into oblivion listening to those people. Ruined their own game now are sitting back scratching their heads and sending out "why did you stop playing"emails. Because you cater to whiney little bitches and ruined your own game. Just wait next dlc there will be a bunch of "what's the new meta" posts.....withen 2 weeks people will make "omg this is to much nerf (insert new meta here)" posts and the cycle will repeat. Over and over and over again.

3 Replies[quote]It takes zero skill to brainlessly sprint/blink/crouch/slide upto someone point blank and pull the trigger or run around with your shotgun as your primary for the whole game as nearly every shotgunner I see in the game does.[/quote] Let's turn the tables here. It takes a lot of skill to hardscope down hallways, waiting for someone to walk in too right? People run around with snipers out as their primaries too. Gotta make those montage clips. Don't be so naive and biased. [quote]Shotgunners push zero primary gunfight engagements unlike snipers who are forced to use their primaries to keep the kill streak alive. [/quote] Snipers hardly ever use their primary either. Unless you're right next to them, or they switch to get the last hit in after a body shot. Again, naive/biased.

Right! Check my topic haha they are all so wrong

I totally understand that people want whats best for this game, but to constantly complain about it, makes it seem like these people think they're entitled to something.

2 RepliesWhile I, as a sniper, agree that the amount of people crying wolf at this point is a tad ridiculous, you cannot discount or belittle those who excel at shotgunning, this requires an entire different playstyle to make work and I for one, am horrible at it. I give major props to any top tier player who runs a shotgun, these people know proper positioning and bait mechanics as well as having the map awareness to know when to push and when to retreat. This is not defending those people who run a shotgun as their primary, but it does take skill, it just has a lower learning curve to pick up and do well with.

Female crab.

It's only the next weapon in line for the complainers. It's not the first and certainly won't be the last. Bungie caters to the complaints and they move on to the next weapon that kills them more than once.
-
All I'm gonna say is your an idiot and you probably run away in every single combat engagement to hide for a snipe kill. If you look at players who primarily use shotguns you'll probably see more primary weapon use than players who snipe. Muted and reported.
-
Snipers don't need a a nerf your a fool if you think otherwise, since the beginning bungie has been nerfing and buffing all gun types lowering the ttk(time-to-kill) now that the ttk is so low on other guns no gun can "challenges" snipers, shotguns still dominate in all other game modes beside 3v3 They need to lower the ttk

[quote]Sniping in this game is not easy.[/quote] The only thing I can disagree about in this game while I'm not that great anymore do to some hand injuries (giggty) but if you played battlefield as much as I use too, Destiny sniping is easy. I will say if destiny is you first game that you pick up a sniper it's not gonna be easy, it never is. Bet any seasoned video game sniper will tell you it is. The biggest problem for destiny and sniping is map design and size.

4 RepliesEdited by The Salamandor: 2/17/2016 7:34:00 PMI don't know if the reason behind this is the shotgun nerf or something else, but the crucible never used to be like this. Nowadays, it's infested with snipers. Before, when we only had three special weapon types and not four, you would see a variety of guns. But now, I almost fall out of my chair when I find someone in the crucible that's not using a 1ks. Every corner I turn, theres a whole squad of glaring 1k stares that instantly overkills any chance I have at getting away. I don't think snipers need a nerf that badly, but something has to be done to neutralize this sniper-blam!-fest. On another note, I think it's messed up for anyone who looks down on players that main a shotgun. Shotgun kills take as much skill as snipers right now. Anyone can pick up a high impact sniper with decent aim assist and play better than their regular skill level. But for me to get a shotgun kill, I have to get close to you while you have a sniper that can gun me down a mile away. So no one should be able to say that snipers require more skill than shotgun kills. At the end of the day, I just think that this game could be fun, as it was intended to be, if everyone i go up against didn't have a 1ks and tlw and was either self res warlock, or a striker titan. Those being 2 VERY broken subclasses in the current meta. Also, my beloved MIDA needs a nerf too. Due to destiny's bullet trajectory system, bullets now manage to hit you behind walls from weapons like the 1ks and MIDA.
