It’s in literally every single game now, in nearly every fight. 4/5 times now when you get third partied it’s by someone with a triple take who instantly downs you before you even know where it’s coming from it’s way too overpowered. Hardly any bullet drop, fast travel time and choke now built into it, not to mention you can now carry more sniper ammo. either nerf it or make it a care package weapon

@Bean2kay9 No way, they finally made snipers relevant. TT is in a very good place now.

@Bean2kay9 Blasphemy! Honestly I think the TT is in a good place. You can still out shoot one with various guns. It's damage fire rate and everything else seems to be about spot on. I've out shot TT players with a Hemlock and even a G7 with double tap.

@Bean2kay9 I agree with darth , snipers are finally in a good place now. I don’t think any of them need a nerf

@Bean2kay9 Come on man, the gun is in a great place! Snipers have sucked on this game for so long and the TT now works really well! I carry it a lot and manage to down a fair few players with it.It's not overpowered, its the best sniper by a mile and it can also be used as a shotgun from close range without the choke setting turned on.Hemloks and G7 can counter it.I also notice as well, when a team has a player with a sniper or more than one sniper then the aim is to close the gap and move the fight close range, if you have two weapons which you can use in close range combat you have the advantage because they have no weapon to switch too.It's always a good idea to have a player on your team holding a TT.

@hayhorYup and they are not OP, i don’t ever feel like the game has turned into a sniper game in which you pop your head up and you instantly die.@rockyboy1998 if you can quick scope with its iron sights the gun is deadly. I’m not consistently good with quick scopIng but I’ve had some really good plays with it.

@DarthValtrex you really can't win with the newbies huh. Sniper rifles have been gutter trash dog crap garbage for FOUR SEASONS, Triple Take having it the worst because you needed a hop-up for it AND it was still slow as heck.
Season 6 has been out for 10 days, 10 DAYS THE TRIPLE TAKE IS GOOD, and here we are. "NeRF TrIPLe TaKE" Did the same thing with the Havoc, same crap different weapon.

@pastaclownThe havoc is still a good gun if you can control the recoil and have a turbo. If I find a turbo I pick it up until I find a Devo. Devo is end all be all IMO.

I won’t call the OP a noob. They are likely just getting killed by the TT more frequently now that it’s a competitive gun. The previous seasons it was rare for people to use it for different reasons. You had to be highly accurate with it previous seasons.

But right now the TT does not seem OP to me. It’s not like the PK was when it was OP. You can still beat a TT player if you don’t have one. If they are out sniping you, turn it into a CQC. Most players still can’t land 2 consecutive headshots, especially if you have solid movement.
