Sniper flinch is so bad. Why are the shotgunning noobs always catered to.

Seriously people use to complain about being sniped saying the flinch needed to be turned up. Just because you weren't good enough to beat a good sniper doesn't mean it was over powered. But thanks to the completely -blam!-ed up flinch and it is seriously -blam!-ed up. You have to see them first and hope there teammate doesn't see you because as soon as your shot your shooting the moon in the sky 90 degrees above you. Since then the entire style of the game has changed to cater shotgun noobs who think running as close to a person as you can and pulling a trigger 1 time is skill. But all you see now is shotgun and fusion rifle. When you see 10s of post saying I finally went flawless. Then you look at their .5 k/d. Everyone wants to cater to the young noob generation. The ones where accuracy is how quick you can slide lololol end of rant screw you bungie. You had a great I mean great simple game. Now yall suck and just take money for bullshit expansions. And debilitating gameplay

  • This is a joke post right? Snipers are fine, the flinch increase is actually negligible

    • Simpleton doesn't realize that we shotgunners rely on perks for range. No good perks mean no good shotgun Simpleton should go to Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 and use Intervention, and stay there. Where everything is balanced.

      • Hahahahahahahaha. Hoe many times have snipers been nerfed? How many times have shotguns been nerfed? Did you even consider the fact that shotguns are currently at theirbworse state since launch? How about the fact that most maps are close-mid range? What about the fact that movement speed and evades play a factor? I bet you didnt. Go get educated and form an argument out of facts with evidence instead of whining like a little fluckboi.

          Snipers did not recieve any significant nerf until late TTK. Shotguns have recieved i believe 9 nerfs including but not limited to: -Range -Draw speed -Range -Handling -Range -Perks Removed -Range -Ammo capacity Snipers have recieved: -Scope zoom increase -Damage in one archetype -AA in one archetype -ADS speed -Flinch Stop complaining. Snipers are completely fine right now. [spoiler]a sniper main[/spoiler]

            • Bro. Destiny snipers have the highest aim assist for a 1st person shooter. EVER. In the history of gaming. So to say sniping in Destiny takes skill is completely wrong. And if you are sniping i bet over 98.33% of you guys arent playing the objectives.

            • The "entire style of the game" was changed because snipers were so out of balance with the rest of the game, that snipers were running around and outgunning everyone in the game at practically every range. I've personally been quickscoped from long-range...all the way down to shotgun range. I even had a kill trade with one QS sniper in a CQC engagement when I was armed with a shotgun. I've been outgunned and drag-scoped by snipers at mid-range despite they're having multiple scout rifle rounds or pulse rifle bursts pinging off their head. Lastly, snipers smoother all other types of play. You can snipe...or play any other style you want....with shotgun rushers. You just have to allow for the possibility of CQC and allow for it. But if you're playing----especially 6v6----and have multiple people running snipers they can lockdown the ENTIRE MAP....and force everyone playing to have to snipe as well. The changes to snipers didn't break them....they BALANCED them. Returning them to the long-range AMBUSH weapons they are supposed to be. If you want to run around and fight people with precision fire. Pick up a scout rifle or a hand cannon like the rest of us.

                • I'm not even going to read this. This has to be a troll. If not snipers were legit nerfed one time in 3 years... boo hoo? It was a slight nerf at that compared to the entire gutting shotguns took through multiple nerfs.

                • I'm sorry but why should I be able to put 2 shot on someone's head and before I get the third shot I see the glare and I'm down. If I get the drop on someone that has their sniper out and continue to land my shots, they shouldn't be able to return fire without any flinching.

                  • A sniper is a marksman or qualified specialist who operates alone, in a pair, or with a sniper team to maintain close visual contact with the enemy and engage targets from concealed positions or distances exceeding the detection capabilities of enemy personnel. This is what you are supposed to be as a sniper. Not standing in the open taking shots to the face, closing your eyes and OHK someone. The flinch was necessary .

                      • Here's how they fix snipers. Flinch a little less but completely remove aim assist from all snipers.

                        • If I hit you in the face with a Jade Rabbit across the map, you shouldn't be able to easily snipe me.. Have you heard of balance? The nerf had nothing to do with Shotguns

                              • Shotguns have taken a nerfhammer so many times now that for them to get another would really mean that bungie should just give up.

                                • Snipers should be restored to Y1 status (other than the first increased zoom on shortgaze), and shotguns need to have their tendency to blank and lock-up somehow eliminated. Along with an overall primary buff and subclass rework, I would definitely start taking this game more seriously.

                                • Haven't read everything but saw shotgun noobs a couple of times and I have to agree. Especially those jugger scrubs who think their amazing. Takes zero skill. Juggernaut has always been in the game and was always a good perk but now with the sniper changes everyone seems to be running a rangefinder shotgun and juggernaut this weekend in trials, makes me sick. I mean WHY DA F doesn't hurt a body shot a lot more instead of making the shield go away.
