What exactly was the problem with Sniper Attack's ability to change weapons? I liked being able to grab a needler or fuel rod or random gun to just go nuts with for some commendation grinding other than precision weapons for a change. Am I missing some exploit people were doing that made them get a billion points on the leaderboards that warrants the random change they are implementing?
That's exactly the reason why it was removed. People were picking up FRGs and treating it like Rocketfight.
I'm just sad that I can't pick up and use Focus Rifles anymore.
Point is that its called Sniper Fight. Not Firefight with unlimited ammo. Though its nice that they did this in score attack, why does not bungie do the same for Firefight?
But they said they were resetting the leaderboards because of it. Last time I checked, I get more cR for headshots and easier to hit/kill/chain multikills with the sniper rifle, which is in turn more cR. Theres even a sniper spree for more kill spree bonus cR. If the Fuel Rod doesnt add an absurd amount of points to your totals, then whats the point of resetting/removing it? Most Ive gotten is like 30k and that was from sniping. Fuel rod spam and other stuff was mostly around 21-24k range and that was probably more to do with the occasional sniping.
And theres no rocket attack in Score Attack mode, which is where this is dealing with, so no point in bringing up that theres rocket attack as an alternative.
