'Destiny' rumors: Sniper rifles might soon be tweaked in the game

"Destiny" players are still largely unaware of what kind of changes might be coming to the game next year, although it certainly seems that the sniper rifle might soon be altered in one way or another.

According to Softpedia, more and more "Destiny" players are voicing concerns over how sniper rifles work inside the game. More specifically, they are complaining about how they are not very realistic.

A Bungie community manager even recently brought up the topic of sniper rifles in the game, wondering if making them more realistic would be ideal inside a game that is not fundamentally set in a world like the one people live in.

Bungie has yet to comment on whether or not they will be making changes to the sniper rifles in the game, although it seems like the developer will react one way or another if the discussion continues into next year.

While players wait for possible changes being made to some of the weapons inside "Destiny," they can also enjoy the free items they will be getting early on in the new year.

Starting Jan. 7, 2016, "Destiny" players will be eligible to receive 15 Strange Coins and 15 Motes of Light for free. All players have to do is to claim the free items from the Postmaster when they become available.

Aside from the free items, some "Destiny" players may also receive a new emblem in the game. According to Express UK, all players have to do is to play "Destiny" any time between Jan. 7 and Jan. 10 to receive the new emblem, although it's still unclear what purpose the mysterious item serves.

The last few days of December will also be bringing something back inside "Destiny."

Iron Banner is now live again inside the game, taking the place of the Sparrow Racing League, so "Destiny" players will have something to tide themselves over as they wait for the arrival of the new content in 2016.
