Destiny Crucible Problems

This is the first time I have ever genuinely been amazed by how ridiculous pvp is on a game and been on any sort of forum to comment about it. I'm good at FPS games 3.1 KDR on COD, veteran player of all halos since halo 3 but I just cant do anything on this game. In every game you play 75% of the kill feed will be Secondary weapons, Supers, Grenades and Heavies. It just a joke, a lot of people don't even use their primary weapon for most of the game. When you spawn and immediately switch to your secondary weapon because it is stronger than your primary something is wrong with the game. You will be lucky to have 2 or 3 fair primary weapon gunfights in the whole game it is just really not enjoyable. Im not moaning about the game as a whole, The PVE side of the game is really enjoyable and quite fair but here are some things I think wrong with PVP: [u][b]Secondarys[/b][/u] - I think ammo is too common for them personally though this is not a massive problem. - Shotguns are too strong and their range is too far. This combo'd with classes like warlocks with a longer range meele means shotgun+meele combos are do easy. - Fusion rifles. I honestly have no idea who thought they were balanced when the game was released. They need 30% less damage at least and maybe slight increase in rate of fire to make up for it because you constantly walk around just getting 1 bursted by them. [u][b]Abilities[/b][/u] - Grenades are just a joke. All grenade damage need to be nerfed, there should be no way you should get 1 shot by a grenade unless stuck maybe. As a Bladedancer all of my grenades are average/poor, I dont mind as I make up for it in other areas but the warlock grenades which 1 shot on a regular basis are too strong. - Super's are just not to my liking at all. Lots of people crying Golden gun is overpowered. All of them are strong but at least with golden gun you have to aim. Voidwalker and Striker specials can almost be used as panic buttons to decimated everything in 30+ feet of you. My Bladedancer one is strong on small maps but not ridiculous. Defenders bubble I just don't understand. Someone popped it and stood in it i beat them down at least 6 times and they didn't die. Ill admit I have no idea what it actually does but it seems really strong and every time is see one i just run the opposite direction. Sunslinger one seems strong and fairly balanced. There's not much you can do about these because they are all equally overpowered at around 2/3 free kills if used correctly. [u][b]Other[/b][/u] - Heavy ammo is actually OK but with my exotic chest I get to "Carry more ammo for Heavy Weapons" which means 4 rockets per heavy ammo crate and my exotic launcher makes the "Shells fired from this weapon track their targets" which is a very strong combo. Its basically 4 + guaranteed kills. Not that the tracking is even needed. - Vehicles and turrets are too strong damage wise. I have no interest in using vehicles at all and will rarely get in in anything other than my sparrow. I don't mind other people using them if they like them but when you run into a pike it will ruin you in literally 2 seconds its just not on. I currently have to use a shotgun on small maps just to stay competitive because you can guarantee 5 out of 6 people will either have that or a fusion rifle. It would just be great if they added other game modes. Leave the current crucible for the people who like it but add a game mode with no heavies, Supers or vehicles in along with no shotgun / fusion rifle unless they are fixed to an acceptable level. This would make it so you can actually have good gunfights against other people and play with some level of skill. That would make it more enjoyable for me and im sure others like me who are tired of constant cheap deaths in the current crucible.

  • Supers are part of the game changing aspect and are fairly balanced. BUT, I agree with fusion rifles and shotguns are obscene. I sit on the same fence as you. In CoD all my K/D's since Mw2 have been 3+ and even 2+ in Halo's. This game i sit at a 1.7 because I'm out gunning(or not) somebody who has a shotgun or fusion rifle and they just hold RT and disintegrate me. My friend is bad at FPS and he literally runs around the Crucible with a shotgun/melee combo laughing at how he can kill people so easily as compared to any other game/ any other gun.
