Very confused about you making this post if that is your real account.
However what exactly are you complaining about? How much you hate snipers and want the shotty meta back? Or are you just hating on snipes cause that is the cool thing to do?
I have my frustrations with snipers but they are fulfilling their intended roll (except for slide no scopes, -blam!- people that can pull that off)

They are going beyond there "intended role" Because of the map layouts on the maps that are used in the rotations, snipers are the strongest weapons to use because their range goes from one side of the map to the other, with 0 damage drop off. The weapons them selves are not as OP as people say, except for the fact that even staggered they can get headshots, and the fact that they can res snipe, which is one of the cheapest thing about them, but it is the map layouts that make them more OP then they really are. If there was any kind of damage drop like in every single weapon in the game, then they would be much more balanced and fit their "intended role"

That's more bungies fault for making such tiny maps where shotguns exceled dramatically instead of making a balanced mix of long range combat maps and short range. There is nothing wrong with the weapons themselves like you said. Aside from rez snipes
