When I play crucible I normally don't use snipers. I feel like snipers are really cheap, and don't feel like snipers at all. A real sniper has to be completely still to get there shot. You never see an actual military sniper swinging their gun wildly to the right and pulling the trigger just for the universe to grant them a magic space bending bullet that whizzes to someone's head. I've thought a lot about it, and with the crazy amount of damage they do, I personally don't think they should get any aim assist at all. Thoughts?

The reason there is aim assist on consoles, is because you can't be as precise as you need to be to use a sniper. We are playing on a stick that controls reticle acceleration rather than distance so the slow down when it crosses an enemy is meant to compensate for that lack of precision.
