Fusion rifles broken in pvp
Time and again I find myself being killed by fusion rifles in the crucible, and I wouldn't mind if it were not for the fact that unlike a hand cannon or sniper rifle, they require no skill to use.
Now before the rage posts begin, hear me out because I an proposing a fair and balanced nerf to an OP weapon.
All I ask is that the weapon that can kill me from 40 meters and is an instant kill have its charge rate brought up from 1/8 of a second to a full second.
This way when you hear that infamous sound, you can do more than exclaim "oh-" before you die.
I just played a control match where the entire enemy team had fusion rifles, the only time my team was making kills was when we teamed up against one player and even then one or two of us went down, and this isn't the first time I have seen this.
In short, Bungie, if you want to start making real steps to balance your game, here is a good place to start.

1 ReplyYou haven't been playing long enough or put enough time in the game to say fusion rifles are OP. They take considerably more skill to use than shotguns. Very few people I know even use fusion rifles after the last nerf.

Back in the good old days

Edited by Podman46: 11/9/2015 1:16:57 PMWow this is from when destiny first came out lol check the date. I remember those dark days. F fusion rifles glad they got nerfed into the ground. Most pain in the ass gun ever to dominate crucible.

The answer isn't a fusion Nerf. What the game needs are primary weapon buffs ( excluding certain exotics ) Fusion rifles seem OP because most other primaries have been nerfed to near irrelevance. The TTK on most primaries are not up to par in my opinion.

Hell whole damn PVP is broken. No skill in crucible now, Bungie has fix it so more people will play. Since auto rifle were buff it's nothing but point and shoot. The lag and red bar players seem to be twice has bad now after TTK. They have no plan or incentive to fix and will not. Now Bungie even still makes us play PVP to finish quest, in a game mode that is broke. I do not care what weapon you use or how good you think you are it all base on a game mode that is broke. They nerf weapons with no idea of what they are doing. Auto rifle has fall off and pulse rifle does not that with in its self make the mode broke. Hand cannon are all but unusable , but we got to get kills with one to do a quest. I have no indication that they even want to fix. So ever time I see Luke Smith say how much like the crucible , I know he is a lying ass or it would be fix.

They [u]used[/u] to be amazing but bungie [b]nerfed[/b] fusions a while back and it even broke the vex when they did... How can you say its requires no skill when you have a charge time an need to properly aim or you dont get a kill.. Shotguns rule pvp because of how simple it is for anyone to point and shoot to get that oneshot kill... Especially when they hug corners.. Whine about any other gun.. I dont care..But.. [b]LEAVE FUSIONS ALONE[/b]

OH my god shut the -blam!- up!
-
I never see fusions in pvp, nobody is using them, couse they arent good right now, plug one may be good.... Why nerving a gun that nobody uses?
-
So use one? Get on board the -blam!- train.

Truckin' fusion rifles getting me from a mile away they are like snipers. Especially that 8 in the mag pocket infinity...

1 ReplyGuns don't kill guardians. Guardians kill guardians. Fusions have longer fire rate. Great short to medium range. Shotguns have great short range but nothing else. Snipers are hard to use short range. Great long range. Hand cannons not great for long range. Great short to medium range. Auto rifles Great short to medium range. Less impact not great for range. They all have risk and reward. I'm sorry but a lot people's definitions of balance on this forum would leave 6 people in a room with, The same exact gun. Same exact jump. Same exact melee No supers. No grenades. Doesn't that sound fun. Just because you can't defend against everything every time doesn't make it unbalanced. I never have a problem killing someone with any particular gun. Please don't take offense but maybe you should practice more at different ways of using your abilities. Don't get stuck in the same playstyle that leads you to death against a certain weapons every time.

I've never seen a fusion rifle that can kill from 40 meters, maybe PI prenerf. You probably had lost some health. What are you trying to do with the nerf, make it be a slightly farther shotgun with the charge time of PI postnerf, so by the time the rifles charged, you can shotgun them? Suck it up, stop being an ass. Fusion rifles do take skill. People who know their fusion rifles charge time know when to charge it when someone's on their radar. In conclusion, stop being an asshole, before you make it where only shotguns are the only specials in the crucible. You can beat them if you know what they're doing. Strafe unpredictably, jump slide, shoot them . Just get better, before you make Crucible a shotgun fest again.

Its funny how you think you got so much "skill" your stats are terrible and your complaint is that fusion rifles are op lol if you had half the skill you think you got you wouldnt have a problem with them learn how to play

5 RepliesThe main issue is map size more than anything. Some gaurdians got on this very same forum not 2 months ago and cried their eyes out over sniper rifles being to OP. So, bungie removed the larger maps and made "modifications" to the smaller maps to cut down sniper use. Now every Joe blow uses a fusion rifle or sliding shotgun and you people wonder why ? You got what you asked for, a COD fest, deal with it.
