Today I was told snipers needed the recent nerf, and we're OP before the nerf.
the argument got a little heated, the person called out my stats so I took a look at his.
on one character
44% of his kills were with a shotgun. (that's nearly half lol dear god)
and he had a 16% precision kill percentage with snipers on that same character.
THAT IS WHAT'S WRONG WITH THIS COMMUNITY.
players who don't use, or can't use a certain weapon cry nerf, and try to get bungo to destroy a perfectly balanced weapon/mechanic to fit their play style.
**EDIT
it's nice to see all of the salty scrubs coming out, doing exactly what I said they do, and then getting upset when I call them out on it lol.
if you have little to no experience with snipers, you don't have a valid opinion on them, and I will call you out on it because YOU are what's wrong with destiny.

43 답변Yes. The (your notion) that there is only one legitimate play style IS whats wrong with this game. Shotguns don't have the suppressive effect on play that snipers have. I can play any style of game I want, even in the prescence of good shotgun rushers. OTOH, all it takes is two or three good snipers (especially if they are on headsets and talking to each other) to shut down a map and make it hard to move around the map and play any other way. Secondly, snipers had gotten to the point where there wasn't ANY disadvantage to using them. Primary weapons were simply not a credible threat at any range...and pairing them with TLW or UR basically neutralized the threat that being flanked and having to engage in CQC posed. ...and that's if the sniper couldn't use the nosebleed-high aim-assist to just quick scope you at short range. What gets weapons nerfed is their being OP....having no balancing disadvantages to their use...and limited to any effective counters to their use. Which fits the description of snipers in this game for the last 6 months. Not shotguns.

2 답변Want to know something cool? You don't need to dome with every sniper to kill. Sniper body + mida =kill Double sniper boy =kill Blessing of light + sniper body =kill Gernade prime + sniper body =kill Throwing knife/smoke bomb prime +sniper body = kill

9 답변Compare sniping in destiny to any other game and you will see exactly where people find issue. There was no down fall to sniping. Thats an issue. It was low risk high reward. Now its mid risk mid reward. Sniping isnt destroyed so calm your ass down all they did was give people who arent hard scoping babies a chance to counter. And you can still get domed just like before its just not every single time. And to hit on the one shotting supers they brought back a year 1 archtype of sniper in roi that is capable of 1shot on supers. And if anything ive been sniping more since the nerf since most people arent sniping anymore. People like you are blowing the nerf up to be way more then it is. If ypu were a good sniper this shouldnt effect you game by much. If your hard scoped and getting shot turn and run regen health and come back with your primary. You cant just live off your sniper anymore

7 답변작성자: Shepherd930 9/20/2016 3:17:41 AMI am a sniper, well I [i]was[/i] . I got Overwatch 2 weeks ago, played for 1 week straight, then came back to Destiny. I'm good with No Land Beyond, but need to get my touch back. Anyways, I think snipers needed the stagger nerf, but the impact was uncalled for. Unless the super user is dumb and walks into a sniping lane, it's not the easiest thing to snipe a guardian in their super.

작성자: PushedBean764 9/20/2016 3:19:01 AM*Speaking to everyone* If you're worried about staggering bosses in pve because of the damage nerf, there's a perk that exists specifically made to help you do just that. [spoiler]it's called High Caliber Rounds[/spoiler] [spoiler]it's like Bungie wants you to choose that perk instead of a stability perk for pve activities[/spoiler]

3 답변Snipers were a little ridiculous (coming from a sniper) and definitely in need of a nerf. However, I don't really have trouble sniping after the nerf.

4 답변They only thing currently wrong with this game is sticky grenades, that track and one hit kill. Trip mines cannot one hit kill, are static and totally visible. Combustion grenade has to be smack bang on the target. Skip grenade tracks for ever but doesn't kill. Storm grenade takes so long to fire it'll rarely kill anyone. Arc bolt is poor without the damage multiples perk on subclass or armoir. Swarm grenade. Not worth mentioning. Firebolt. What a let down. Axion bolt, works well but if you die before it goes off it turns into a small explosion. Scatter, where it should be. Doesn't seem to throw very far. Um have I missed any? Either way, sticky grenades are just to damn sticky and track to well!

Snipers did need the nerf. The flinch nerf was absolutely perfect. Don't agree with the damage nerf though. Strange that the best shotguns didn't get nerfed. I feel like matador, party crasher types should be tinkered with. I think special weapons should be for niche situations and I believe snipers are going in a good direction. The high impact hotguns need to follow. Buff primaries

1 답변작성자: IceIllex 9/18/2016 9:00:09 PMYou're logic is super flawed. Just because you met 1 person who had a different opinion then you and then didn't have stats to back up his opinion, does not mean that the entire community is like that or that he is wrong. Just because he's not a sniper doesn't mean he can't be right or that the overall community is wrong 1: people need to stop saying the community is bad, toxic, stupid etc. just because they have had bad experiences. That negative attitude helps no one. 2: people need to get that we all have opinions on the game, weapons, pvp, pve, balance etc, and our opinions are not fact. If someone calls for a nerf and you don't agree with it, either don't reply, or simply state your opinion and leave it at that.

5 답변I recently tried to "git good" with snipers ready for y3 trials. I was shocked how easy it was after a couple of weeks, aim assist is ridiculous. I was quick scoping people and doming people mid air in no time. The flinch buff (or nerf) is perfect.

1 답변I haven't read this, I got through 1 sentence and saw someone told you they were OP. People miss use OP so much, guns aren't op some guns are stronger than others. Snipers were fine where they were. The people that complain are either bad snipers or shorts they get crapped on by skilled hands.

3 답변I think the nerf to sniper rifles is only fair considering the huge nerf they did to shot guns a very long time ago. I've noticed now since the sniper rifle nerf we are getting a lot more primary weapon fights in crucible, instead of people whoreing out there specials using only snipers and shotguns the whole game
