Sick of snipers in PVP

With the current state of PVP and with the last Iron banner Bungie needs to do something about snipers. Let me give you 2 scenarios. #1) I come around a corner to see a crouched guardian at the end of a hallway. I pull up and get one, two, 3 headshots all in rapid succession and then BAM dead. How in the world is he able to line up a headshot between getting hit with my 320 Hung Jury. In my opinion if a guardian is getting hit with constant fire there should be enough shock and sway from the incoming fire not create a miss. #2) Im playing Iron banner as a 319. I know there's a low level guardian on the other team in the 290-295 range. I am thinking I am pretty safe and BAM killed by ICEBREAKER! Are you kidding me?? You can pull out a 170 level gun in Iron Banner and get a 1 hit kill with a year 1 gun?? That kind of defeats the point of Iron Banner doesn't it? Before Iron banner I played the open Beta of the Division and wow was it a wake up call. Bungie has completely destroyed the weapon balance from the original vanilla PVP. Here's the thing. Auto rifles have range, they just have more spread at longer distances. A slow fire auto rifle has more accuracy than a bullet hose. Revolvers kick like crazy, and rapid firing make them pretty impossible to stay on target. Maybe, just maybe Bungie can actually balance the guns to make them more realistic than this current garbage they have us playing with right now.

  • Return the Thorn to its former glory just for Trials, and you'd see snipers/TLW almost disappear overnight. Return the Hopscotch Pilgrim, to its former glory and you'd see snipers/TLW users cut in half. The most often used anti-snipe gun now is the scout. The scout user has to make 4 head shots to win that fight, the snipe just one. The Thorn would put snipers on the run with just one hit. A couple episodes of that, and they give it up. The Hopscotch pilgrim could kill at snipe ranges with two trigger pulls (6 bullets). Even without a kill, it would do enough damage to put snipers off sniping. Bungie removed all of the best anti-snipe guns in the game. So, here we are...
