Request for the Sniper Rifle

Ever since Team Snipers was in the rotation the first time that I hate the fact that when you are shot while zoomed with the sniper, you don’t get forced out of scope. But you flinch SO much. It seems to have taken some skill out of sniping when you’re shooting someone with a BR or DMR, ETC but they can just control the little flinch they get with those guns and just pop you in the grill. But when you get shot with a sniper while you also have one and are zoomed, you look straight up.

So my request is simple, pop me out of scope when I get shot. I think it would really help this game.

use the stability perk by finishing rogue.

> use the stability perk by finishing rogue.

I understand that, but I want a level playing field. Not an advantage.

> use the stability perk by finishing rogue.

I don’t think that’s what he’s asking for. If you didn’t read the whole post, he was implying the need for descope back, which I completely agree with.

Exactly.

It’s impossible to use that in Team Snipers because of disabled personal loadouts. Even if he was going to use the perk, it would still be annoying as -Yoink-.

this was the worst feature in Reach. I’m glad they took it out. it takes skill to zoom out and turn and defend. of course, this would be overlooked as a good thing with all the dumb downs and things they added to make it easier for less skilled players. so of course it would be looked at in a negative light.

The only reason it’s in the game is because Call of Duty does it, and as long as they keep doing it, it won’t be taken out.

How is it skill to get out of scope and defend yourself when you have NO time to do that? Especially in team snipers. You would die before you even got out of scope. And if this was the worst thing in Reach, you clearly have not played any other Halo. Being forced out has been a feature forever. It’s realistic. It takes skill to get shot, re-group, zoom back in and get the headshot. Not the other way around.

i would propose adding descope against sniper/beam rifle.
and to keep flinching against the other weapons.

we don’t need carbine players having an advantage.

I would still rather be scoped out. I liked it better that way.
