Is it me or does the sniper gun just have way too much range? Just because its accurate doesn't mean it needs to shoot far. I mean Tiger Woods is accurate, but he doesn't pull up from half court and score a grand slam now does he?

The sniper is too powerful from far away. I mean every game I'm in there is some noob off to the side just sniping everyone. I was playing on Last Resort and the noob didn't even let me charge up my laser. He just noob shotted me in the head. Bungie, there is something wrong here.

Last game on the Pit me and my little brother rushed Rockets and shotgun when the game started, but this noob didn't even follow us. He went straight for sniper gun. And then me and my brother got killed by some BR noobs and they took our Rockets and then that sniper noob just kept killing people from the side. He had almost all of our teams kills. I got so mad at him for stealing my kills I went up and betrayed him because I wanted to show that idiot I don't deal with noobs on my team. Then I picked up his sniper gun and wasted all of the ammo.

I'd rather have 5 kills and 20 deaths with skill weapons than going 20-1 (I guess I was the only one that could kill that noob) with that noob sniper. So thats what I did. I showed him that I have zero tolerance for noobs on my team.

It takes no skill to use a sniper, you just shoot their head once. I think you should improve a gun that requires more skill. Thats why I think you should give the shotgun more range. Not as much as the sniper gun, but about as much as the BR. This way skilled players like myself will have a chance with these noobs. Its impossible to take out a sniper with the shotgun.

Another way to change is to add some spread to the sniper gun. That really showed those BR noobs. I think it could be very good in stopping the sniper gun noobs.

And another time. There was this guy. He said he had no deaths, and was going to get a "perfection" I didn't know what it was, but it sounded like a reward for sniper noobs. I din't like the sound of it, a reward for sniper noobs? I hope Bungie was smoking pot when they thought of this. So i went over to him, and betrayed him for the sniper. then i proceeded to waste all but one shot and give it to the enemy team. They killed me and took that noob gun, which stuck me as weird as they were pro enough to take the shotty. when i respawned, I took a look to see if the shot gun was thre,i was amazed. the best gun in the entire game was sitting in front of me, with a gorgous blue-gold glow. I walked over to it, and picked it up.
I then got 2 kills with it, and the game ended. When i looked at the stats, i saw that the snipr noob's only death was from me!
I felt so triumphant, that i took a pic called no more sniper noobs and put it on my fs. i went 5 and 20 that game, but i was proud tht my 5 kills were with all the skill weapons. one grav hammer, 2 ar, and 2 shotty.
Also, why are there snipers in team shotguns? It makes it unplayable.

Troll? Rockets take far less skill to use than the sniper or br. I guarantee those "sniper noobs" or "br noobs" are far better than you are.

Try playing a game with snipedown and see if you get pissed.....

If you see this post in your topic I'm sorry to tell you but your topic is dying.

It doesn't shoot too far, it shoots too close. I feel ashamed when I get a close range kill with a sniper.

  • 08.24.2010 4:18 PM PDT

haha wow your talking like such an idiot. Every example you call everyone a noob but you always die while your teammates are actually killing the opponent. Just because you probably suck balls with the sniper does not make it a nooby or bad weapon

Try pre-charging before you just sit and make yourself a target next time. Getting shot in the head is a one shot kill. Why not use that instead of wasting ammo on body shots? Seems better to me.


Last game on the Pit me and my little brother rushed Rockets and shotgun when the game started, but this noob didn't even follow us. He went straight for sniper gun. And then me and my brother got killed by some BR noobs and they took our Rockets and then that sniper noob just kept killing people from the side.

You got killed by BRs while using close range weapons. You obviously don't understand the concept of range or how to use the weapons you decided to pick up.

He had almost all of our teams kills. I got so mad at him for stealing my kills I went up and betrayed him because I wanted to show that idiot I don't deal with noobs on my team. Then I picked up his sniper gun and wasted all of the ammo.
Wow, just wow. First of all, notice the first sentence. He's racking up kills for your team. What's wrong with that? You then decided to get rid of the only thing giving your team any kills or advantage because you consider him a noob (even though he was getting all of the kills on your team?).

I'd rather have 5 kills and 20 deaths with skill weapons than going 20-1 (I guess I was the only one that could kill that noob) with that noob sniper. So thats what I did. I showed him that I have zero tolerance for noobs on my team.
Sorry. I'd rather win the game with a good score than have idiots like you on my team. I have zero tolerance for your kind.

It takes no skill to use a sniper, you just shoot their head once. I think you should improve a gun that requires more skill. Thats why I think you should give the shotgun more range. Not as much as the sniper gun, but about as much as the BR. This way skilled players like myself will have a chance with these noobs. Its impossible to take out a sniper with the shotgun.
Everything you say is contradictory. It takes much more skill to kill with a sniper than a shotgun. The shotgun kills with one hit kill almost every time if you use it right or leaves the person you're attacking nearly defenseless. The BR has the same range as the Sniper, so that would be counter-productive, as you wouldn't hit anything with the shotgun's spread. Killing someone that has a sniper with a shotgun is incredibly easy, if you do it right.

You're the kind of person that I get my friends to betray until they leave the game. A complete idiot and jerk who costs the team the game on purpose doesn't even deserve to be playing.

Last thing, you have more sniper kills than shotgun kills, so maybe you should revaluate your entire thought process :/.

I totally feel you man. I hate when noobs always kill me with a br or a sniper, they couldn't touch us with real weapons. These people don't realize how hard it is to get an ar-beatdown kill. The only reason I'm not mlg is because all they use in mlg are noob weapons.

lol

I know man, they just hide behind rocks and pop their head out to shoot us, thats not skillfull compared to our ar-beatdowns, we get up close and personal.
