Frustrating, But... (Destiny)
I think the problem is the balance of unbalance.
I pick up a Praedyth's Revenge, I'm sniped by a Longbow Synthesis. I pick up a Longbow Synthesis, I'm sniped by a Efrideet's Spear. So on and so on, until I have a 1000 Yard Stare and aim assist what? Now I'm getting sniped by a weapon with a name so long it literally goes off the fucking screen.
The problem with the 1000 Yard Stare is because even though the weapon itself is weak, its auto-aim is so friggin' high, everyone with one suddenly becomes Hyena.
I remember in Halo people would run for their lives and kill and betray for the one or two snipers on the map. We'd have to worry about 1-4 campers in a game. Now people fucking spawn with them. And that is a nightmare.
I do get mad when I'm shooting at someone with say, a pulse rifle and I still get one-shotted even while their screen is (supposed to be) shaking and unfocused. But to be honest, I think we need to be reminded that Stares or not, there are some people who do have a lot of talent. And there are others, like me--who just get lucky as all hell. I agree that the stability/aimbot for Stare needs to be reduced, but don't forget that A) What if it were you looking through that scope? and B) If it's nerfed, they'll find new turf. There's always going to be something that's OP. If it's not Stare, it'll be a lot more than that.
