I THINK I FOUND OUT HOW TO BALANCE SNIPERS!

Good idea

357

Won't work

So we all know of the sniper rifle problem there is in PVP right now. You cannot move across half of a map without getting picked at from the other side. Here's my solution that won't nerf them to the ground and will barely [b]tickle[/b] them in PVE. [b][u]Make it so when you are scoped in, you walk slower.[/u][/b] Sounds simple right? Some of you might think that it's already in the game! From my brief tests it is not. [b]Why would this help?[/b] I realized that in PVP there is always someone in sniper lanes scoped in and strafing to make themselves a harder target. Also people are scoping in before they turn a corner into an open lane, and then stepping in and seeing if they can get a head shot. This will make it easier to counter snipers, while still not destroying them. [u]Good suggestion[/u] [quote] When moving with a sniper, the sniper is a bit inaccurate, but when you stop moving, it regains it's accuracy (the spread). When scoped and you take enough damage to get your sheild down, you descope.[/quote]

  • There will always be a problem... The only true way to "fix" it is... Take them out along with the shotguns... Now the problem would lie in Scout rifles pulse rifles and any auto rifle that has long distance.... So no you can't fix anything because there will always be someone to complain about it. ALWAYS. PS. I hate shotguns... Lol

      • Ok so here's the issue with snipers. There is no issue. You see more snipers in crucible because anybody who's stuck with the game up until this point either has just gotten the balls to go and get headshots or they are of higher skill. Most casuals are gone. It's mostly the hardcore and elite players left.

        • Better suggestion : nerf the body shot so it doesn't do so much damage maybe like depending where you hit it does different damage like a foot would do 1/5 health chest shot would do a little less than half. Head shots all they need to do is remove where it's always steady like a guardian doesn't breath or some thing . Oh and nerf the rof on snipers like the 1 k stare longbow synthesis etc

            • I don't know why you would need to move quick while holding a sniper. Most snipers always fire stationary. Hell shotguns got nerfed with movement speed unnecessarily.

              • Why do 68% of the ppl who voted say it won't work I mean it's just a suggestion and it COULD WORK. It won't hurt to implement it in game. I say why not

                • nah wont work i got an idea lets make all snipers manual. that way you have to wait like .4 seconds for the bolt action to complete. shotguns also do this with their pump action fusion rifles need some sort of action to help prevent inbalance

                  • If they made it so that players would un-scope whenever they took damage from another player, we could have avoided all of these weapon/ammo nerfs for the sniper rifle.

                  • A bigger variety would be if primaries with higher impact, caused more flinch for example you could be running a shadow price. That thing would make the flinching so hard compared to a fast firing weapon like hawksaw so you can choose if you want a faster TTK or a weapon that can flinch snipers

                      • Primary's need to be able make snipers flinch so they can't get a immediate headshot when being shot at. Only patch snipers need.

                        • You have less than 1,000,000 medal score. You don't even have the credibility to suggest crucible patches/nerfs/modifications and etc.
