Sniping is perfectly fine...

Guys, why all of the aggression and hat toward all sniper users. Snipers are not in anyway "overpowered". They have been the same ever since the game launched, till this very day. There is no reason to have let em' off before, and anger towards them now. I swear, everyone on these forums literally complains about anything, just because they get killed by it. Just because you die alot to a certain weapon or a certain weapon class doesn't make it a reason for people to complain that it is "ovepowered", just stop... Feel free to roast me as much as you like... I enjoy toxic kids ;)

  • No there not. All they need a de scope function when shot and then they will be truly balanced.

    • Agreed any day one player who snipes would say the same the snipers aren't as good as they used to be and the perks are worse

    • I'm sorry When I have a hand cannon with explosive rounds Fire 2 shots and him them both in the face And he is still able to perfectly snipe me in the face I don't think so Screen shake from explosive rounds.... See. If it happened 1-2 times I get that But had a trials game where no matter what the guy landed his shot Sure. Maybe he was a amazing skilled player with a sniper But cmon now. There is just a little too much aim assist and not enough flinch in this game for people who are getting shot in the face repeatedly with HC rounds and explosive rounds supposed to stagger and they still somehow get the snipe off to the face It happens too often is all I am saying

      • Aim assist doesn't aim for you it just stays on the target if they move

      • Correct, snipers are fine. It's special ammo that is the problem. But I honestly dunno what the fix is, I feel like the changes Bungie made are all wrong. I'd like to see special as something you don't spawn with (except sidearms), so every time you die you have to go grab another box. Also, everytime you switch special weapons it wipes special ammo.

      • Their aim assist should be brought down because Even though I don't have to put my crosshairs near the guy it's more gratifying to have less aim assist.

        • If it's any consolation, that roll (I have one) makes it harder to rez snipe when teammates run in front.. That joint drags every time. First world problems

          What seems to be the problem? [spoiler]If you are gun-ho to run around corners and hallways in Crucible, you will either get: Sniped, Shotgunned, Headshotted, Meleed, Shoulder Charged, Bubble Blinded, Fist of Havoc-ed, Hammer Slammed, Grenaded, Burned, Scorched, Electrocuted, Disintegrated, Bombed, Teathered, Hunted, Sliced, Diced, impaled with a magic arrow... OR... ...all of the above. A wise man chuckled and would say "The Crucible is no place for mercy"... [/spoiler]

          • The problem is that everything else is under powered. Scouts are in a good place. Hand cannons are iffy. mid and low rof autos are shit still, literally can't even challenge a half decent sniper at close range because you'll get body shot double tapped or switch to primary. High rof autos are in a good place, maybe a little to forgiving for how strong they are, I dont want but I see a range nerf in their future. Pulses got hit a little too hard. Low impacts should three burst, mid should 3 burst at range, high should 2 burst with the exception of red death. Red death deserved that nerf.

                • The lack of variety is the problem. If everyone's using the same thing. Of course everyone's going to complain about it. Fusion rifles need to be buffed back up. Shotguns are fine, maybe a buff can't tell if it's lag or if something bungie broke. Snipers are great there balanced

                  • I agree with you mate. I have been killed by shotguns so many times and everytime I just get angry but I don't whine about it and go stomping around saying the range on that thing is ridiculous...I just keep playing. I use snipers more than any other special and I do not think they are overpowered, you can easily blink Shotgun me and heck even jump and Shotgun me. Or even primary kill me. What you can't do and shouldn't do is walk straight down a sniper lane and expect not to get domed.

                  • I just want body shot damage reduced so people can't double body shot or body shot me after hitting me with a primary.

                  • Currently they r too versatile when compared to other special weapons. This is because of movement speed, ADS speed, readying weapon speed, and weapon swap speed. If these were reduced snipers would be less versatile and more in line with other specials

                  • I thought we came to an agreement it was to do with the amount of ammo special weapons were getting? People run special weapons as sniper because there is so much damn ammo. Especially if you got the map/ammo timers down. Reducing the special ammo bya fair amount would force people to use their special weapons more cautiously...that'd hopefully reduce the amount of camping

                    • Although I think the aim assist needs to be looked at, you're correct for the most part. Nerfing most over special weapons and leaving one alone is always going to make it used more...... I do think 1KYS needs to be toned down a bit though.

                    • I agree with you. I think all of the weapons are fairly balanced right now and it mostly comes down to player skill. DOT is about the only thing that needs a look at in crucible. Sniping takes skill and people that say it doesn't don't snipe.
