As a sniper... Why is everyone upset all of a sudden?
I've been sniping since I got Destiny. I've heard people complain about fusion rifles. Nerfed them. Shotties? Nerfed, and then nerfed again. It seems like people are wanting snipers to be nerfed as well? Why? Im not trying to start an argument I just want to hear it from someone who isnt a sniper. I think sniper kills (non-revive) are well earned. You are vunerable while ADS, you can do nothing really if someone rushes while you focus, and its a 100% hit or miss situation. A body shot when theyre behind cover, and you just used your nade is a wasted shot and happens more often than you think. So opinions? Should sniper rifles be nerfed? If so, why do you think that? Open to different opinions. :)
Note: I do think revive snipes are bs. Revive shot gunned is also bs.

Those crying nerf, saying AA is to much on these guns. did you know that 3 snipers in year 1 had more AA than the 1K stare. Yes they didn't have Hidden Hand then, but there is no guarantee to get that on a sniper now.
-
I see more people complain about 1000 yard stare specifically, not really snipers in general. Reason being is how ridiculously powerful it is versus how easy it is to use.

1 OdpowiedźThe other specials can't compete with it now due to nerfs. Do you think a sniper or side arm is better. Fusions and sidearms need buff not sniper need nerf
-
shotties? More like nerf. nerf again, and nerfed again lol
-
No nerf for sniper.

Awp is op

My belief is that it's because a lot more people are sniping nowadays -- including a lot more people that are good at it. Plus, it never feels good dying via a snipe. The splat sound is infuriating and it's often in a situation where you never saw the guy so you "feel" like you had no way to counter. And because of lag, it'll sometimes happen when it seems like the sniper didn't even have the line of sight to see you when he kills you. Shotguns have a similar issue in that it also often feels broken when you get killed by one because the player killing you will look like his gun is pointing to the ground and his body is completely away from you when you get 1-shot killed.

So many salty kids crying because they got killed by a gun in a FPS pvp. They fill me up everyday.

I am on the opposite side to you. Since the 9th of September 2014 I've used a shotty. I love shotguns and I'm really quite good with them. They are part of my strikers CQB build. I understand that high impact+high range shottys are powerful but all these nerfs have done is make those guns more prevalent. Nuke the range? Well then I guess I can't use any low range shotty ever again. Snipers are fine (bar res snipe) maybe a little auto aim nerf but bar that they're fine. Shotguns are fun weapons and reward those of us that master the maps and the movement. It's the same as the hand cannon and auto rifle nerfs. They nuke a whole class because one or two out layers are OP.

Edytowany przez użytkownika Nëfërātā: 12/7/2015 7:37:49 PMThis game's meta is always all or nothing... That is a problem! There is no balance. Shît gets nerfed, people move on to the next gun, and that over and over again. First fusion then shotties, now snipers. People get annoyed if they get killed by the same type of gun over and over again. And will complain eventually (most likely) and why; cuz Bungie's "balance changes" are curses and blessings at the same time. They [i]want[/i] certain things to shine, only to destroy them with the next update and make other weapons interesting (again). Remember red death+bad jujuj + thorn in the beginning of destiny year1. They were shît. Now what happened to thorn, what is gonna happen with pulse rifles tomorrow?!? What happened to praised auto rifles in year 1, what is gonna happen to them tomorrow?! It is a cycle, pattern whatever you wanna call it. Edit: btw the community complained way [i]less[/i] about snipers [i]before[/i] they implemented [u]hidden hand perk![/u]. Just saying. That perk enkindled the discussion about aim assist and target acquisition!

I'm not upset. I just don't understand how some of you get head shots so fast. It's insane....well done!

1 OdpowiedźNerf special ammo...would keep kids from forgetting they have a primary
-
In my opinion, The entire problem is that [b]everyone[/b] is carrying secondary and heavy weapons. It's just a matter of picking up ammo for those weapons. Add that to the vast (and rising) variety of weapons that they must continue to produce for PvE which can then be taken into the crucible then I'm afraid there's [b]no[/b] way to balance the crucible effectively unless you standardise starting weapons and make secondary/heavy weapons, map pickups.

1 OdpowiedźBecause currently every single bastard in the game is using a sniper and it's boring. Not just any sniper though, 19/20 people use 1,000 yard stare, the other 1 uses eirrene. It's just boring, it's like during the hand cannon meta, you only saw 3 weapons, thorn, hawkmoon or tlw. Crucible needs variety, we have it with primary weapons, we have it with heavy weapons, we have it with sub classes, there's a good mix of everything in the game with the exception of specials, because everyone snipes and it's boring. So here's the solution, everyone spawns at the start of the game with zero special, then special drops as it currently does but less. This will stop people just legging it to their favourite sniper spot at the start of a game and staying there throughout. Specials are meant to be used in special circumstances, hence their name. Primary weapons are supposed to be first choice, hence their name. Things need to change.

Tfw you throw a nova bomb as they are revived and they're immune......

Edytowany przez użytkownika SgtRook: 12/7/2015 5:04:57 PMEverything else has been nerfed into nothing, that's the main reason. Another reason is it seems incredibly easy to hit head shots, drag scopes and even quick scopes with high aim assist snipers. I mean, earlier I clearly missed a guy by aiming above his head, he still died to a head shot. The hitboxes in this game are incredibly big in comparison to other games, there is no weapon sway while aiming down the sight, and snipers with huge amounts of aim assist don't help. Just aim at head level and wait until you see someone, boom, you win. Don't even have to hard scope.

5 OdpowiedziBecause everything else is getting nerfed all the time so it's making snipers the best option by far abd everyone is starting to use them

3 OdpowiedziEdytowany przez użytkownika Sturm with no Drang: 12/7/2015 4:57:44 PMIt's because a lot of folks are afraid to use primaries because they're "casual" and not "MLG" or "Pro" enough like specials. *Foghorns blare in the distance*
-
Too much aim assist on most of them.
