Low skill floor, high skill ceiling. They're too user friendly, anyone can do well with a sniper. There's no risk/reward. Even if you get shot at, you're gonna land that headshot. Yesterday I'm playing a game of IB on Pantheon. Other team is pretty aggressive, pushing A spawn hard.. main guy leading the assault is using... 1KYS. Not an assault weapon of any sort. A sniper. I throw on my treads upon stars.. decent impact to start, with explosive rounds. In a firefight with said assaulter, as I'm landing shots on him he manages to get a sniper kill on me, twice, before he's finally taken out. Now clearly this person either got ridiculously lucky with his shots or he's got a bit of skill. Not gonna deny that. The problem lies in the fact that you CAN choose to assault a base with a sniper and still be highly successful. The run and gun play style should not be able to be achieved using a sniper rifle. Giving the high impact snipers enough aim assist to make a headshot while taking damage from explosive rounds a possibility is really going to make people lose interest.. When the masses come back on April 12th and step into the crucible just to run into the same exact shit that made them quit a few months ago they're gonna say ' this "progression" isn't worth the headache, back to something else' It's a shame because I really enjoy Destiny, but with the way the company is being run I can't see myself endorsing Bungie much longer. There needs to be a community manager that actually interacts with the community. Go to blizzard's forums.. they literally have a spot at the top of the page that shows you the latest posts from those whose job it is to keep the community informed/placated. Here you could have literally 10k people endorse an idea and it won't even get mentioned in an update, then you have some idiot whining and trying for attention and you have them making call outs at the end of the weekly 'update'.. really professional. Kinda went off on a rant at the end there lol
