I love the updates we have received thus far, but I feel like this game now needs a team sniper variant with large maps like we had in Reach. I would love a blood gulch or Valhalla remake where sniping from a longer distance is actually viable.
Sniping in this game is too easy. Putting them on big, open, maps would be terrible, IMO. Classically the snipers in past Halo games have had minimal amounts of bullet magnetism and aim assist, but 343i changed that with 4 and 5. This chmage akes them too good on big maps. You see this on maps like Basin and Guillotine. On both those maps the sniper has too much impact, and you’re able to lock down entire areas on the map because of the increased ease of use.
AMEN!

Right but if everyone had snipers to start, then it would be more fair. The skilled players could still wreck people if the have better reflexes and awareness.
