Snipers do NOT need a buff
They are still very easy to use.
Adding less flinch will make the game even slower, especially trials.
BUFF PRIMARIES!

22 RepliesYou have a total of 1000 snipers kills in pvp and pve. You don't know what you are talking about. This whole "lets stop nerfing things now that snipers are trash" plea is getting old. Snipers got just as many nerfs as shotguns have and 6 of them were done in the last patch at the same time. It was overkill at the very least.

2 RepliesI saw some salty lad posting about [quote]Anyone calling snipers viable are below average players[/quote] [spoiler]90% of players are average and below m8[/spoiler] The fact is that if Bungie buffs primaries, snipers should get one too. A slight buff to flinch. We know Bungie isn't doing either of those things. ......................... I barely noticed that snipers were harder to use in PvP because when I miss my first shot, I back up and regroup or engage with my primary. Always have. See, the key is to have situational awareness, and most players just wanna run around getting easy kills. People are sour that the game isn't holding their little ding dongs for them while they aim any longer, that's why so many people run Metador 60bore. Most of these 'snipers' pre nerf run shotguns now because they had trouble getting that easy stick-click pull they're used to. Tape a circle to your screen and suddenly you were top 10%. Bungus should just make a primaries only gametype. [spoiler]all you'd see is NLB and Universal Remote[/spoiler]

14 RepliesWhile I do agree that we should buff primaries, I do think that snipers should have a very slight decrease in flinch. Giving snipers more flinch encourages campy sniping, and although some may argue that the purpose of a sniper is to camp, the map layouts in destiny do not promote sitting in the back of a map. Buffing primaries, applying a very slight flinch decrease (and maybe handling as well) to snipers, and leaving shotguns as they are should produce a fairly generous meta. Shotguns and snipers would be able to counter each other quite effectively, and primaries would be able to actually compete. That's just my two cents though.

30 RepliesThey need handling buffs now if anything. They're to slow to be used in fast gameplay. Thus....you have hardscopers who sit in the back pinging people.

10 RepliesThe only buff they need is to bring back the ammo for PvE. For PvP they can give you all potato guns for all I care just give us back our ammo for PvE.

31 RepliesSilly troll, go back to your bridge. For real though. In top tier play, snipers are horrid.

3 RepliesFlinch needs an adjustment. If you fire an auto rifle cross map, it shouldn't make a sniper flinch just as much as at point blank.
-
The only issue people seem to have with snipers is flinch, and ask for flinch reduced. I think there is another way that would surgically allieviate the problem without blanks buffs or nerfs to a whole gun type. How about just increasing the recoil on perks that increase flinch (like HCR), to make them less reliable at range? The faster the fire rate, the more dramatic the effect, so it would cause the most recoil with guns like pulse riffles, and have a less noticable effect on scouts and hand cannons.

Nah buff snipers and primary

1 ReplyHa ha! People see your post that actually makes sense, have no actual counter argument, first thing they do is try to look up your stats, to see if they can discredit you based on how your stats compare to theirs. They then see that there isn't any info available, so they can't degrade you based on that. They've been shut-down on two fronts, now they're really freaking out. Last thing they can think of... accuse you of deleting your characters. Grasping at straws much? Ha ha! That moment you instantly know you've won the argument.

Why don't they just take away flinch and add descope? And actually make sniping great again

3 RepliesShotguns could use a small buff
-
The flinch is a bit much sometimes I don't mind if a high rof gun makes me flinch like crazy or a gun with high cal makes my screen jump because in my opinion that's what those guns should do. Do I think all guns should do that no but I can see where the problem lies if you change flinch as it is now. I will however say that you need to add flinch to no land beyond. Even people that use it all the time say while the sights may move the flinch isn't really there

8 RepliesI don't disagree with not buffing snipers, I do not wish to see those dark days return but.... How do you buff primaries without it getting out of hand. The thing that makes this PvP different is just because you got shot does not mean you lost. The TTK in this game low enough that you can usually find cover and counterattack. I don't know how you buff primaries and keep that aspect. That instant TTK is the reason sniper players want their crutch back. They don't want to get involved in unpredictable back and forth duels. They want that kill button. Let's take HCs for example. In most cases they are a three shot kill. What do you buff it to...a two shot? That would be a bit much dontcha think

1 ReplyWhether we wanted it or not, we've stepped into a war with the Cabal on Mars. So let's get to taking out their command, one by one. Valus Ta'aurc. From what I can gather, he commands the Siege Dancers from an Imperial Land Tank just outside of Rubicon. He's well protected, but with the right dick, we can punch through those defenses, take this bitch out and break her grip on Freehold

28 RepliesYou're absolutely right. People complain about Matador and yeah, that range is crazy, but I still have a chance to kill shotgun rushers. A good sniper absolutely kills the fun in the game.

I agree. During the April update all you saw in pvp was snipers. It was torture. But I have my lucky 1k stare ready just in case.

They are fine where they are at.
