Why are you just now complaining about snipers considering they've stayed the same since the game launched. In fact, if I'm not mistaken, they've even had a reduction in aim assist in Year 2 as compared to Year 1. I guess it's because you didn't have a reason to considering how good a place shotguns were at. You must be under the false pretense that aim assist magically bends bullets which is totally not true. Aim assist merely allows for the scope to be centered on your target for a FRACTION of a second. As far as calling people hypocrites, you're in the same -blam!-ing boat! Here you are on the forums complaining about snipers in this elaborate post while in the same post complained about how others whined about shotguns! What a complete idiot. I just love how you point out how you're so sure that the majority of people who complained about shotguns probably couldn't even use one themselves when I know for damn sure that you could never do well using a sniper.

    You obviously rely on snipers. He isn't only saying snipers should be nerfed, he's calling you hipocrites because you indeed are. You moaned about shotguns and fusion rifles for the majority of the first year, but now when the people that want PvP to be fun and balanced and bother to review their argument before they post it say something about your precious crutch thousand-yard stare, your response is always "NO NOT MY SNIPERS PLEASE NO YOU'RE JUST BAD AND ALL" While shotguns were a good weapon type in Year 1, there were counters. However snipers in year 2? No counters possible. You land all your head shots, about to kill them but suddenly no! The wiper manages to kill you. The flinching mechanic on snipers is non-existent, the reticle goes somewhere but the shot will always go where it was before. He never said aim assist ruins snipers either. They need a nerf, to be put back in line with the other weapons. Deal with it. You also happen to main a hunter. Hunters right now (the bad ones) are defending snipers and using all of the overpowered weapons if they can. It's obvious you would want to defend your crutch weapons. You're so addicted to this game you only care for your precious KDR, so it must be the end of the world if your easy-mode is removed.

  • 1. It's just as easy to say you rely on shotguns. 2. Never complained about fusions, a little about shotguns because they really were too good. 3. So in order for PvP to be "fun and balanced" snipers need to be changed? Think back to a time where the game was balanced ( I can't remember ) and just think that snipers were the same then as they are now, so why call for a change now and not then as well? 4. Don't even have a 1000-Yard Stare.. just saying 5. You can't actually think snipers are a crutch weapon.. 6. "Shotguns were counters". Yeah counters to every single weapon in the game and that's why they got a nerf, yet, they're still really good. 7. You must be a special kind of stupid if you think that your bullet will always go straight regardless of flinch. 8: He never said aim assist, but you'd be surprised just how many people support that argument as to the reason snipers need to get nerfed so I thought I might as well put that in there. 9. You failed to make an argument as to why snipers need a nerf or reasonably what they could even do to nerf snipers. I mean hell, I could have even listed a few things. 10. Good job categorizing an entire portion of the fan base as people who "defend crutch weapons". Because, didn't you know? There isn't a single Titan or Warlock who is defending snipers or even goes so far as to use one.. 11. I play this game 2 days a week so if that is categorized as "addicted" welp, I guess I am. 12. If I really cared about my "precious KDR" I would probably use shotguns considering how easy it is to get kills with them. Seriously, come up with some good arguments as to why they deserve a nerf and what that could do to change them.

    1. I do not rely on shotguns. Just because I have the most kills with them doesn't mean I run around with one. That's not a very clever assumption. I'm in fact a fusion rifle person (apart from Iron Banner, then I use whatever's best). 2. Still complained about shotguns, so why is it so bad for someone to complain about snipers? They're too good. 3. See your number three is a case of stupidity. They weren't complained about then because back then there was a counter! With all the nerfs snipers have slowly risen above all other weapon classes, one by one as they are all nerfed. 4. Why defend an overpowered weapon you don't have? 5. They are. You can run around the map with one. You can snipe at close range, long range, medium range and if they challenge you with a primary the reticle moves but the barrel doesn't, meaning snipers are almost like large rifles with one-shot capabilities and a high zoom. They aren't the sit in the back, picking people off one by one, being all stealthy type like they're meant to be. 6. Shotguns aren't really good because you have to close the gap between you and the player before the player shoots you dead. At long range, could a shotgun counter a scout rifle? 7. You're now getting aggressive with your insults. The scope seems to move around wildly, but the shot will, regardless of any flinch always hit where the reticle was before you started flinching. Go try it out. 8. Aim assist is a thing, the reticle stays on the enemies for longer. It makes drag-scoping easier. 9. I was telling you that your argument is wrong. But challenge accepted. Snipers might either descope when hit or the shot actually moves when you flinch because it doesn't now. Aim assist shouldn't be a thing on snipers either, because they are already easy to aim. Handling is annoying because the quick scope and drag time allows for close-up shots. 10. Yes, yes I know. It's always the hunters. Most hunter mains in Destiny are the young ones thinking hunter looks cool. They use all the overpowered weapons and subclasses and moan about anything that can kill them. Titans actually play with fun builds, and warlocks too. You hunters always defend your overpowered stuff, like blade-dancer was defended, so was the thorn, so was the last word, so was the backstab glitch, so was quick-draw, so was blink. All of that. It's not all of you, but it is still a lot. 11. I would say that playing for 48 hours a week is a bit addicted. But I know what you mean. If you don't play much then you shouldn't have much of a say against people playing every day, or two days a week. 12. Hehe, the shotgun is OP argument. Your snipers kill a shotgun user at his effective range. I have a challenge for you. Go make a mature thread on shotguns being overpowered, and see the following: How many disagree? How many agree? How many hunter mains with snipers on all their characters with KDRs of above 1.5 agree? How many hunter mains with snipers on all their characters with KDRs of above 1.5 disagree?
