So why don't we just take every other gun outta the crucible and give everyone snipers cause that's all anyone uses. No skill involved to use one either. Just camping ass bitches sitting in crouch. Great way to make it balanced, Bungie.
Let's give everone a 1 shot weapon with aim assist and perks to make it even easier. Brilliant.

31 Replies[b]TL;DR[/b] The OP is full of shit and needs a bucket full of data to dilute it's salt. Rumble top weapons: Auto Rifle, Handcannon, Shotgun Salvage top weapons: Auto Rifle, Handcannon, Scout/Sniper/Shotgun (within 1% of each other) Skirmish top weapons: Auto Rifle, Sniper, Handcannon Trials top weapons: Sniper, Auto Rifle, Scout Clash top weapons: Auto Rifle, Scout, Sniper Control top weapons: Auto rifle, Shotgun, Scout Based on February data from Guardian.gg Auto rifles CLEARLY reign supreme in all modes apart from Trials. Even normal Elimination has Auto Rifles in second. To [b]me[/b] the data suggests that players tend to opt for a medium/short range primary with a low ttk and back that up with a long range special weapon. This implies that players are more comfortable keeping their distance in the current meta. They are opting for solutions that don't suit a rushing playstyle and prefer to pick players off before they get into melee range. The only real underperforming weapons are Fusions and Pulse Rifles. I think most players are just bored of Pulses, and Fusion Rifles are the most high skill special in the game so are struggling to attract enough players. (though they are SO fun when you get the hang of them)

5 RepliesIt's also a MIDA fest.

One game, we just camped in small rooms and waited the snipers out. It's actually pretty ridiculous that ppl cannot use primaries at all. Ended up winning 5-2 all because we didnt play the snipe game. Twice we ended up going into overtime because they refused to put their snipers away and use primaries and we refused to contest them when they were hardscoped on all doorways. Its pretty boring when your only choice is to wait the other team out or walk into an ambush.

its bungies fault for giving everyone a sniper. it ruins gameplay.slows the game down.this is why this will "never" be an esports game

Snipers are OP. They need a nerf for real.

1 ReplyI was just informed that Deej, and all of Bungie have read this and come up with a solution. A hotfix that will be taking place tomorrow will nerf the stability, range, impact and charge time of all fusion rifles. This should definitely help to take care of this so called sniper issue you speak of.

Bungie: "Alright Mr. Snyder55, we'll listen to you and nerf fusion rifles."

Make players de scope when they are shot or at least flinch considerably. Way too easy for people to get shots off while being shot at.

1 Replyin my opinion snipers are overused its my main death cause here's a normal crucible match when i play: (deaths) sniper,sniper,sniper,shotgun,super,sniper,sniper,sniper,sniper,sniper,sniper,sniper,sniper,sniper,sniper,auto rifle,sniper,sniper,scout rifle,sniper,sniper,sniper,sniper, than all sniper scrubs say well avoid sniper lanes than here's the problem there're no sniper lanes wherever i go there's always a sniper scrub sitting in a corner or doorway or room or hallway or roof it already got me frustrated enough where i simply stop playing after being sniped and jump of the map the remaining time of the match

It's meant to be inclusive to players that are bad, which I think it definitely works. Bad players won't admit it but it's true.

We need to start buffing PRIMARIES THEY ARE TOO WEAK.

1 ReplyI'm not very good, but I rush snipers...seems once they are out of their fav spot/comfort zone they just run around crazy...the really good sniper/players switch to shotgun and come hunt me down...great fun... lol

6 RepliesI just want actual flinching and recoil on snipers. Scope sway wouldn't hurt either.
-
The problem is how flinch works. There is flinch when getting hit but the reticle always drops back to the head after the flinch so, if you time it right, you can get the head shot while under fire. It should not work that way.
-
I don't find the snipers that bad.
-
Meh, alot of trials today has been teams camping in spawn waiting for special then head glitching for snipes. Won some but some headglitch spots are just impossible to compete with. Very frustrating how slow overall gunplay is now
-
It would be a easy fix, snipers need more flinch when being shot at its to easy to simple take bullets and carmly headshot someone its kind of ridiculous and this comung from someone who likes to snipe but hey lets face it theres way more bad points then good points in pvp.....broken shame to i use to love this game

Edited by Chubbums: 2/29/2016 7:01:53 AMInb4 streamers come in defending their crutch. You know there's something wrong with snipers when people use it to contest every other weapon, heavy included, at close range.
