Two frames. TWO FRAMES. LoL they get paid for those decisions?

Two frames and a slight zoom scope change. They can't be serious. April fools right? That ain't gonna change a damn thing. Add 5-6 frames. Lower aim assist. Make people work for those snipes, you know, like most other shooters. I love sniping, but in Destiny, it doesn't feel like sniping. It's disgusting. I understand it is important to take small steps when balancing, but it's VERY clear that sniping is in need of a bigger change than what is coming. Oh well, just another meta i'll skip. Good thing DS3 is next week. That'll hold me over until UC4, Mirror's Edge, Doom (maybe, competitive isn't lookin too hot), Overwatch, Homefront. All sure to be more entertaining than getting 1k yard stared over and over again.

  • May I recommend you go play those other shooters? Some of us like the fictitious world of this game. Firebolts and all.

    • My Grandfather smoked his whole life. I was about 10 years old when my mother said to him, 'If you ever want to see your grandchildren graduate, you have to stop immediately.'. Tears welled up in his eyes when he realized what exactly was at stake. He gave it up immediately. Three years later he died of lung cancer. It was really sad and destroyed me. My mother said to me- 'Don't ever smoke. Please don't put your family through what your Grandfather put us through." I agreed. At 28, I have never touched a cigarette. I must say, I feel a very slight sense of regret for never having done it, because your post gave me cancer anyway.

        Go and play a sniper simulation. Destiny is a fantasy sci-fi with Guardians who jump 20 foot in the air and throw magically generated flaming hammers.... realistic haha.

        • snipers aren't even op now you retard. like literally, are kids that think snipers are op actually mental? making them shit isn't the fix, making primaries better and shotguns just a tad better is the answer.

            Nah. Because a massive Inventory nerf and special only every 2 minutes (3 in first initial spawn) isn't enough. ~[i]TheGreatPolo[/i]

            • Still waiting for a good player to say sniping is OP. Try playing 3v3s against guys that know how to use a shotgun and not get sniped.

              • It's unclear how much scopes will let change. I hope it's .5 more zoom.

              • You obviously don't snipe yourself. That extra zoom is gonna make a huge difference I think

                • Lol, ok so yesterday I played cod bo3 for the first time whilst Destiny was down, as I'm sure a lot of people may have, the sniping in that game....Lol....Where to start, well, firstly it makes Destiny look far superior in skill requirement and individual ability in terms of sniping by comparison. 1 hit kills everywhere, my friend said " yeeeaaah but it has to be chest or above!" Oh , so the two area everyone aims for anyway l?! Went back to Destiny, and the hit boxes are no where near as big as on cod. Evidence furthered by the killcam and multiple times hearing people say "omg that totally missed but I still got it" lol sure that happens occasionally in Destiny, but no where near on the same scale imo.

                  • And yet they refuse to address the real problem with snipers. The lack of flinch while ads when the person is getting hit....

                    • Yeah, my gut tells me it's not going to address the root of the problem, but I'll give them the benefit of the doubt until I experience the changes for myself.

                    • This decision was probably based on testing that showed that only a two frame addition was needed to eliminate jump-scoping, slide-scoping and cut back on on quick scoping. The higher zoom scopes also make these kind of trick shots or close range shots much harder. They are simply trying to keep snipers at their intended range. The fact that people use them as primaries at nearly every range is what is most annoying about them. Force snipers to keep their distance and use the weapons at long range. Yeah, people will still complain about 'camping'....I know I have been guilty of this in the past...but I would much rather get picked off at range by a sniper than slide-quick-scoped by someone coming around a corner with their sniper out. Snipers always say that those kinds of shots are just pure luck....that may be the case but the odds of landing the shot have been just a little too good of late. Getting heads when you flip a coin is also just luck, but it sure seems to happen a lot.
