I called it. People are now asking for sniper nerfs because AA (Aim Assit)
I called it. In case you did not knew, when they removed shot-package, I made a thread that got I think 100+ replies, saying that snipers and sidearms will be the next thing people bitch about, like bodyshot with sniper + melee (same with sidearm) Almost everyone said I was a retard that this would never happen
Trials come
Look at the forums, and in Youtube channels like DPJ, Datto and PlanetDestiny.
Inbound = blah blah 1000 yard stare AIM Assit its for noobs, make headshots easier, must nerf snipers
They are fine. Sure, once in a while aim assit could help you get a kill, but 99% of your kills will be by your aim.
Now, I'm not pro sniper. Check my stats. On the hunter and warlock, my main weapon its shotgun, followed by Auto rifles. In the titan, its snipers, followed by 50 kills behind shotgun and then auto rifles.
I'm telling you, they will nerf snipers. Look what happened to fusion rifles, auto rifles and handcannons. Shotguns are on the way.
And then, the crosshair will be to snipers, sidearms, scout rifles and pulse rifles

1 ReplyWhy did you put "AA" if you were just going to say what it meant right after? It's not like you used AA in your actual thread either.

1 shot kills will always feel bad to the victim. It'll be a trend forever with special weapons in the crucible.

Am I the only one that doesn't like high aim asset on there own sniper rifle? I have noticed I do far better the lower it is on my sniper. I tried out the glass promontory which has aim assist through the roof but I can't seem to ever get a head shot with it while on the eirene rr4 with its low aim asset I'd say I hit 80% of my headshots with 10 body and 10 miss. And on my 1000yrd stare it's some what less but more than the glass. Maybe I'm just weird like that I'm I'm still new to sniping, since 2.0 when they made shotguns suck in pve

I'll take being sniped over blink shotgun all frickin day!!!!

5 RepliesBecause a lot of this community is poop and will complain about anything that kills them. I'm not disagreeing, sniping is slightly too forgiving but we had a collection of amazing snipers, •Efrideets Spear •Long bow synthesis • Ldr 5001 •Shadow of Veils •Her Benevolence •Ice breaker All which do the exact same thing as 1000 yard stare, if not better. Players never complained about snipers then but loved blink shotgunning. Now that shotguns have gone downhill and blink is not as good as it once was, these same players are targeting snipers. Adapt to the meta and change you play style, just like we adapted when you were blinking around with a felwinters.

in halo, sniper rifles and shotguns spawned in a specific place on a map. and only spawned every so often, and with very limited ammo. thats how it is in a competitve pvp, power weapons arent available with ammo right from the start. although i like that i get to use a shotgun or sniper anytime, it is not conducive to a competitive pvp.

Raid Sniper FTW.

8 RepliesI guess I dont care because I seem to be doing better with my Eirene RR4 that literally has the lowest Aim Assist in TTK than I am with my 1000yard with Hidden hand/shortgaze

Edited by boff: 11/12/2015 10:59:35 AMI never though I would see the day either but it seems everyone I play is a mlg sniper these days...so I'm guessing its time to move shotguns and snipers to primary....you can effectivly use these weapons as primaries anyway but at least this way they will have weaknesses. I've had a few people argue that PvP is for casual pvpers and bungie have said not to take it so seriously....and now agree with this...the aim assist is high to help with casual pvpers, it makes sense this way, so that's the call do we want a competitive PvP or one that helps lower the skill gap to help the not so PvP orientated players

Nobody gives a shit who you are or that you called anything lol. Why do people keep saying this crap nobody is going to care to remember who you are.

Mfw Queenbreaker's bow gets untouched... [spoiler]:D[/spoiler]

I honestly think everything has too much aim assist. Dont nerf snipers just drop aim assist. Ttk sniper averages 50 aim assist. Hightest of any dlc. Its like for -blam!-s sake man what the hell bungie jesus....

They'll buff sniper reloads, nerf AA, nerf headshots, buff eagle eye, massage small bore, nerf quick scope, buff the red dot and nerf all stats by half whilst buffing shotgun range by 339, making sidearms 1 foot shot kills and nerfing fusion rifles charge time because jet beams melt steel fuel.

oh man. Try defending against a scattershot bro. That thing will wreck you from miles away.

Edited by Peregrine: 11/12/2015 10:26:20 AMPeople will only ever be happy with a none super, none heavy, none special, no none objective, none blink/titan jump, none abilities, none melee, none grenade playlist. Oh, and you can only use Zaouli's Bane. Goddammit Bungie, give the people what they want!

Snipers are irritating to die to because it's usually so unexpected and lethal. But I wouldn't nerf them. Usually my fault for not keeping an eye out.
-
Aim assist does not the sniper make.
-
People use 1000 yard stare because it is so easily acquired from The Take War:Earth quest line, exactly the same as Conspiracy Theory-D. I feel the only people who normally complain about snipers are those who struggle to use them, aim assist doesn't make a person a great snipe, practice does. Also note the only changes snipers has have since launch has been the justified change to Final round and an increased damage drop off at longer ranges, they are working as intended.

Less special weapons, the more room I have to shoulder charge

Pluse getting Nerf n scout be buff n Nerf n buff before. N shotgun n sniper get Nerf again

The thing I don't understand all these new aim assist complaint posts is: aim assist was [b]reduced[/b] on TTK snipers overall, most likely to make hidden hand's affect more apparent. High aim assist Y1 snipers far outperform even the 1000 yard stare with hidden hand. Ask anyone who actually uses a sniper rifle regularly.
-
It think people aren't looking at the ease of Snipers as a whole, ignoring AA, they are still easy to use as there's no sway. There's no downside to using them and I've said it before, if you can score head shots/use a scout rifle then you can use a sniper, they are the same thing except they do more damage.
