Maps like first light and bastion need to make more of an appearance in future titles in destiny's life time, give the snipers of destiny more room to put their skills to the test.
(No, camping out in the back with an ice breaker, or a high fire rate sniper isn't skill, it's borderline camping)
It's a constant struggle in normal PvP now to actually snipe when you're being taken over by shotguns and Thorn's all the time, (you can check my characters stats. My main weapon used is a sniper rifle (Patience and Time) and I really love to be a sniper in this game), unfortunately there are a lot of close quarter maps. Most of you would say "There are a lot of points in [map] where you can snipe, stop complaining" or "play combined arms".
Let me explain, I'm aware of these spots, however, I'm not the type to wait in them, I'll actually move around to get shots all over the map, and combined arms comes around every couple of weeks, so I'm forced to play in cqb maps. All I'm saying is that I want to see more long ranged maps and maybe even a "big team battle" game type in destiny or future titles.
So if you are a sniper and really dislike having to snipe on shotgun maps 24/7, reply and share your thoughts.
Honestly it feels great to snipe a shotgun user, however I want to go head to head with other snipers, its pretty fun like "damn he/she got me, I'll get em this time" I like sniper battles, so yeah.
One more thing, if you're a kick ass sniper and looking for a group to play with, hit me up on Xbox one GT: Vaencent or find groups in here, be nice alright.

I personally don't want maps as large as that, but it would be fair for people that enjoy those very large maps. These maps are boring, because the games usually go to the time limit. People are afraid to move, because the chance of being sniped by a guy at the back of the map is pretty high. I personally want more medium sized maps. Shores of Time is my favourite map, due to it not forcing you into CQC wherever you go. You can have actual gun fights at range. Rusted Lands and Black Shield are also pretty good for that, too. Destiny has way too many maps that force you into CQC. Almost every map has small corridors and obstacles everywhere. There definitely should be more maps that reward using a scout and/or sniper.
