Ok. So what are everybodies opinions on snipers in this game?
Do they need a tweak?
More of a nerf?
Balancing in general?
My opinion is that with a skilled hand. They should be OP. But the aim assist is just too high sometimes. Makes it wayyyy too easy.
But not with all snipers. 1000 yard aim assist is probably the best. It has high aim assist. And can res snipe. Personally I think only exotics should be able to res snipe. Makes it slightly more fair imo and makes you trade off one of your exotic primaries to do so.
And the fast fire rate some have is also sometimes bad. Yes you blow through ammo. But it's not hard to obtain it and body shots do far too much damage in my opinion.
I don't know. I don't want an argument. Just let us know down Below what you think needs to happen or maybe doesn't need to happen?
Cheers
Edit::: please don't just talk about the aim assist guys. I replied below on a few as to why I used 1000 yard stare as my example. But I want you to give opinions on the overall weapons. Not just 1 single one. I'm not calling for super nerfs. Maybe just flinching buff. That's it. But that's just me. That's it.
Cheers

Idea for fusion rifle balancing: *-50% hip fire/ADS Accuracy *Lowered number of projectiles to 1 *Lowered movement speed by 75% *Reduced range by 50% Well that's all for today's update! See you in 6 months, fûck you

2 RepliesDescope when your being blasted with a high impact anything will make me happy I shouldn't be pounding you with my mida or whatever it is and you *consistently* pop head shots I'm ok with a lucky body shot or the occasional lucky head shot But it happens so often it's not luck Otherwise everything else is fine about them

Edited by zJDz: 3/28/2016 8:06:55 PMNo more nerfs. They should just buff some weapons. Nerfs just make fushion rifles op. Oh and cry some more. It makes it easier to dome you. Even if they do nerf snipers you will still get killed by them the same amount.

Snipers... Lets just start with.. They should descope when shot, they should have a slow rate of fire, no more 2 shoy body shot kills within a second, that is all do that and see what happens, instead of bungie changing everything all at once they should change one thing at a time and see the effect instead of everything n screwing everything up
-
They should handle just as slowly and poorly as shotguns....
-
U guys obviously are salty cause u suck at the game.....
-
This is why I quit Destiny and started playing Warframe.
-
Imagine if the icebreaker could Rez snipe. Hereafter has an amazing aim assist but nobody uses that. There will always be the go to weapon. As one gets a nerf another rises

6 RepliesI really don't have a problem with them. Then again I come from FPS games where a sniper shot ANYWHERE = death so...

1 ReplyBuff primaries, buff fusion rifles, balance snipers, remove heavy ammo in pvp

2 RepliesI find all the complaints against them pretty funny. The only maps that had decent sniping have been all but erased from Destiny (First Light, whatever that big mars maps was called, etc). All the maps now are clutter-filled CQC maps, with little-to-no sniping lanes.
-
3 RepliesThey should be removed, it takes no skill at all to sit and wait for someone to come into your crosshairs then kill them. Only skilled people are those that use shotguns
-
I use to be bad at sniping. I used 1kys and GP and was actually destroying in sweats. That says something[spoiler]just set base AA for all snipers at 50.[/spoiler]
-
If it's sooooooo easy, you should do it.
-
There is way too much aim assist on all weapons in this game.
-
1000 yard stare n'uff said. Nerf that shit seriously
-
Actually Yasmin has a higher aim assist
-
I love sniping But it does need to be reevaluated, maybe a descope mechanic when getting hit in the head Or slower ready/stow times
-
I think they should buff all primary weapons to narrow the damage gap between primary and special weapons...this would make players use primary weapons more...instead of some sniping whole game...or increase the flinch by a lot while ur ads of snipers...

7 RepliesLower body shot damage, fixed.
-
They're just easy to use especially if you hide back

1 ReplyOmfg [spoiler]Yes[/spoiler]

1 ReplyGetting hit =drop out of zoom But maybe i am just salty that people can snipe me while I headshot them with primaries
-
No, keep snipers as they are now. Don't touch snipers. Leave them alone. People just complain too much about how they are dying. Get over it and get good. Play the game.

Body shot damage should be penalized. 167 on a 1kys shouldnt be a thing
