Video:To all those saying "Shut up shotgun nub. You can't make dis post unless you use the OP weapon U make argument against. U can't snipez , cuz you barely even use dem."
Snipers have may be the most skilled, but do they really have a high learning curve in Destiny, if not, a learning curve at all? Let's see why I believe they need nerfing:
-The ridiculous impact snipers can one shot revived enemies, completely ruining the point of over shields on revives
-Very High Target Acquisition makes head shots extremely easy to get
-Little to No Recoil allows for follow up shots to be extremely easy with little to no effort
-No Sway, allowing players to be completely agile and spam fire while maintaining targets
-No velocity limitations (Why would bungie add Hakkë weapons with velocity buffs, yet there are no limitations/mechanics to make this relevant? This applies to all weapons)
-High rates of fire (Similar to scout rifles)
-Head shot hit boxes are big, allowing for ridiculous one shot kills that shouldn't happen (Neck, shoulder, ect)
-Semi high ROF snipers with all listed above.... Really, Bungie?
-Conspiracy Theory-D
-Can outgun regular CQC weapons because of all listed above
-I recommend Nerfing the salty community as well. Nerf cries are running rampant on things that don't even need it. (In short, don't always listen to the bitching unless you actually looked into it.)
Other than that, they're completely fine and only skilled players can use them, right? (Obvious sarcasm) No, but seriously, something needs to be done about this. Anyone else agree?

I think you're playing the wrong the game if you're expecting a more realistic feel from destiny.

I have an issue with aim assist and snipers. A head shot should be a head shot, I agree with that. But shooting just to the side of someone's head should not qualify as a head shot. I use snipers, and I see it all the time. There is no other weapon, besides a rocket launcher of course, that should down an opponent without even placing the reticle directly over what you are shooting at.
-
When your actually being shot at, even landing a body shot becomes a test of endurance, the optimal attack is when the enemy fails to notice you at mid-range, in which any gun minus shotgun and swords can ruin you.
-
U sound like a bitch

This is the dumbest post i have ever read, it should say "NERF SUNBREAKERS BUNGIE"
-
I have been killed infinitely more by people with shotguns and hand cannons than being sniped, in fact it's a rarity (for me anyways) to be sniped.
-
Can you piss off snipers arnt bad in crucible why nerf them and the blinding sniper is far it's a -blam!-ing exotic
-
The games not meant to be too serious which us why snipers behave this way. Not all of them have high aim assist. If you are using a hand cannon or pulse rifle you can flinch snipers so badly that their sights will go way off. There's plenty of reasons to snipe but plenty of counters
-
Actually snipers are fine, it's just everything else is rubbish
-
Edited by Mr Unlucky: 9/21/2015 10:22:08 AMGo into one hundred crucible games. Count how many times you're killed by a sniper, and how many times you're killed by Shotguns. Shotguns should be the majority, if snipers are killing you more then you should learn to find cover.
-
If you spent as much time gitting gud as you did whining on the forums you be a beast!
-
ah IT NEVER FAILS last week was hand cannons this week its snipers. Next it will be swords
-
I agree on smaller hitbox and swaying while aiming.
-
I hate sniping myself. Its boring to me and im also not very good at it. However I don't have a problem with any of the sniper guns. They don't cause much of a problem to me. I simply avoid them when possible and try to flank them. Plus my pulse rife will usually win the battle for me. More often than not. I say leave them alone.
-
Learn to snipe, not to moan.

Just stop. Shotguns are a much bigger problem. If they included things like bullet drop it would become useless. If they had low aim assist then very few people would use them. And they are most defiantly not good at cqc.
-
Bullet magnetism and auto aim make weapons OP. It's why scrubs hate hand cannons now; they actually have to aim them.
-
Really. You want to nerf snipers. Why don't we just nerf everything since the crybabies won't stop.

Edited by z_cryptix_z: 9/21/2015 5:30:08 AMAfter the 2.0 update the amount of flinching that happens when you get hit makes it hard to aim under fire. I hardly see any snipers anymore and mostly shotguns but I prefer a sniper because a shotgun doesn't take skill in my opinion. I don't use a sniper with hidden hand on it either. I use one of the new hakke ones. I don't think anything is wrong with snipers except they should remove hidden hand because it adds a decent amount of extra aim assist I think or drop the amount it adds. Because whenever I played trials, every sniper was her benevolence with hidden hand on it. I preferred my longbow.

This is Destiny. There is no balance to it. You have hundreds of different weapons. Gear with crazy stats. Supers. If I want balanced gameplay, I go play Halo. I play Destiny when I want crazy off the wall mass murder. And it does it well. Halo is a smooth balanced gameplay with a flow that is streamlined to be balanced. Both a completely different games. When people cry for nerfs. They are trying to take a wild crazy game. And restrict it into a balanced game like Halo. But that doesn't fit Destiny. Destiny is ment to be crazy

Are u serious? 😂

You are a scrub I bet you never been 9-0 before go back to COD

Well if I got shot in the head with a gun I would expect to die.
