NO GLINT FROM SNIPERS IN PVP??

I've noticed lately, especially in IB the past few days, that i am running into snipers face first seeing no glint from the direction it came from. Just to be clear, i am not complaining about snipers in general, do your thing snipers... nor am i a noob to crucible. I know where camp spots are and i will be looking/aiming in the exact location of said areas then SPLAT! Kill cam pans to the guy crouched exactly where i knew he was. This has never happened before, now it happens once every few matches. Also, i am running fiber optics so its not a connection problem on my end... anyone have this issue?

  • Does NLB have glint? I would think not right? Seeing as it's from World War One

      • I had the same thing happen yesterday a couple times, the first being where I saw a guy just sitting there and I shot him in the head but he near killed me with a body shot. But his sniper never had a red glint.

        • Thought it was just me getting quick scoped..... Which didn't seem realistic as often as it was happening.

                • My biggest complaint...not just snipers, is if I have 4 feet of concrete on either side of me you should not be able to hit me....I'm behind cover!! As far as quick scoping, Its just another issue with snipers that will never be fixed.

                • It's called quick-scoping. They're only ADS just as they're about to fire. It's a way of keeping your radar active and not showing the sniper glint.

                • I've been noticing this in Trials too. I watch a door way and an enemy literally headshots me as he walks through the door. They knew where I was and where my head was before they saw me!? No light on the scope, so I'm assuming hip fire too. This is wierd and why I just do the bounties. I think I may be done with this game when The Division arrives.

                        • The sniper thing in this game is all -blam!-ed it won't be balanced Untill aim assist is dropped to 10 max and flick is added, as long as you can get a head while under full crit fire it's gonna remain broken.

                              • We're they using patience and time? There's no glint from that due to the invisibility.

                                • People put paper dots on their screens so that when you barely aim(making no sniper glint) it makes it shoot exactly where the center of the screen is
