For Snipers do you want them to under perform or Over perform? Snipers need to be buffed and statistically the only game mode they were oppressive in is Trials and people are gonna play like a pu$$y there anyways.

That's an odd question and a little slanted I think. I want them to perform as they are [b]designed[/b]. Long range suppression. Herder to use at shorter ranges. They should be able to be challenged by skilled players. Skilled snipers should be able to overcome most challenges. The skill gap was too narrow before because flinch was ineffective and predictable. Trials was not the only place snipers were an issue in. It was just more obvious on 3v3.

Flinch is stupid now and Snipers are barely used if anything Shotguns make time in the Crucible more ch easier. Snipers should reverted and primaries buffed. Shotgun will still be good just not as effective because primary's will have a high or decent TTK to kill rushers

I can admit that sniping took a big hit with the nerf but they should not be reverted. It was way too easy to get kills before. People took advantage of the predictable flinch to get kills instead of using actual skill. If they can make snipers more valuable while keeping the skill gap wide I'm fine with it. They cannot go back to being crutch weapons.
-
Why? They weren't crutch weapons to begin with. Shotguns are crutch weapon and extremely easy to use. Shotguns shouldn't be crutch weapon that roam around freely. They should have counters besides a handful of guns. Snipers and primaries should be buffed to solve the Shotgun meta

由X-LoganX編輯: 11/1/2016 11:25:46 AMYou're missing a major point of pre nerf sniping. For the mediocre skilled snipers they were absolutely a crutch because they were succeeding in getting kills when they never should have been while under fire. Just standing there being a bullet sponge while maintaining accuracy. That's practically the definition of crutch. Skilled snipers are not being as affected by the change. People using snipers as they were designed to be. It's just showing that people who are having trouble were not that skilled and relied on the predictable flinch. It also shows the nature of how crutch they were that they're not being used in trials anymore as main weapons. Sure shotguns are being used but we'll within their design as cqc weapons. Whereas snipers were being used well outside their intended role. Your also being bias about counters. Only a handful of weapons can counter a snipers effectively. Why should that be the same for shotguns? I've been playing Supremacy with nothing but hand Cannon and sidearm and I'm doing fine against shotgunners. Why can't everyone else?
