I know that might sound crazy. I know we've put up a hell of a fight over the last 3 years as the nerfhearders have gone after everything we've known and loved about this game, but it's time to face reality and the reality is that the only way for this game to survive is to stop fighting and embrace the nerfs. Yes it will be painful, but it's for the greater good and sometimes you have to give things up to get where you need to be.
Let's start with sticky grenades. They are currently the "scourge" of the game by countless streamers and Trials payers (EDIT: was going to edit it to players, but realized it still fit. go figure) everywhere. I'm sorry folks, but shits gotta go. But let's not stop there, lets fix everything once and for all.
So here are the rest of my proposed changes;
[quote][b]- Lightning and Spike Grenades are going to be the next op weapon once stickies get nerfed so lets just reduce their damage and time of affect by 50% each.
- Hand Cannons. Still the top primary in the game after the last range reduction... and yet outgunned regularly by The Wormwood. Solution? Hand Cannons and Sidearms need to be merged and be special weapons. Let's face it, we can pretend they're "different" all we want, but we all know deep down inside they're the same -blam!-ing thing.
- Fusion Rifles. Why are they even in the game still Bungie? Remove them entirely.
- Shotguns. Make them all guaranteed three hit kills.
- Sniper Rifles. Each archetype gets one round then must reload.
- Autorifles. They're fine
- Pulse rifles. Reduce the rounds in each burst to one. Reduce magazine sizes to 13-19 rounds
- Scout Rifles. Remove MIDA
- Golden Gun, Hammer of Sol, Stormtrance. Each get the same duration and HoS is reduced to 3 "hammers" and Stormtrance 3 lightning rounds that function identically to GG shots.
- Fist of Havoc. Can only be used if 2 or more enemies are in it's proximity
- Nova Bomb and Shadowshot. Increase in all walls, corners and low hanging ceilings/doorways.
- Defender Bubble. Needs to play musak while the ahole inside dances
- Arcblade. reduce the actual number of kills by half in the final stats so it will finally not be the statistically top PvP super and fall in line with it's reputation as the worst super in the game
- Heavy weapons. All remaining ammo removed after one kill
- Special weapons. now all start with no ammo and ammo spawns disabled in PvP
- Primaries. All must now reload after a kill. All given a .75 TTK
- Remaining DoT and AoE grenades. All damage reduced by 50% Axion seekers randomly wander and not actually seek.[/b][/quote]
I know this is a lot to take in and probably to a lot seems like it will destroy the game, but again it's the only way to save it. Once these changes have taken effect there is one last set of changes/sacrifices that have to be made for the greater good.
[quote][b]- Remove all PvE components from the game. Raids. Strikes. Missions. Story (haha).
- Remove all non-Trials PvP components from the game. Control. Clash. Iron Banana. All of it.
- Rename Destiny "Trials of Osiris"[/b][/quote]
Once these changes have been made, the Trials community, streamers and nerfhearders will have their "perfect game" to play and love forever as they compare KDs, ELOs and Epeens. Then the rest of us can move on to Destiny 2 with no Trials and have fun playing with OPAF weapons, abilities and grenades and feeling like powerful, unstoppable juggernauts again.

shh... not right now.

I know this is bait, but I actually agree with merging hand cannons and sidearms.
-
No, we'll save something similar to that for Destiny 2. Destiny 2: [i]If you thought the first three years where -blam!-ed up..tehe[/i]
-
You forgot one Nerf timer so it can't freeze.

Edited by FreakingElite09: 4/18/2017 5:49:31 PMI was getting irritated at this post Sols, but then I was like....waaaaiiit a minuuute.... Good post.
-
Be quite!!! The games already got 1 foot in the grave. Destiny 2 comes out in 5 months. Are you honestly wasting brain cells with ways to "save" destiny 1? The game is over move on that's all there is left
-
Simpler solution delete the game from console and play other games. Woooo!
-
So what you're saying is f*ck Destiny...bring on Destiny 2?? Oh, and don't implement a Trials type game mode in D2 for the sanity of everyone? I can agree with that.
-
Satire surely? However, you hit on one point that other Guardians might not be aware of. Sidearms are in fact hand cannons, mounted in the special slot, the fifth archtype if you will. There are methods in game, to test my claim...
-
Save the game by asking for more nerfs? Nah I'm good. But go ahead and destroy it further. It doesn't matter because the game is dead. The nerfs have driven dam near everyone away to the point where bungie had to combine all the crucible modes and only have a select few each week. This game is a complete f***ing disgrace and so is its community. It will never recover, nor will the community. Who cares, nerf [u]everything[/u] into the ground. All that's left is you nerf herders and your slow paced boring shooter. Have fun with it because you [u]all[/u] got what you asked for. Can nobody just play games anymore or do you all just suck that badly at gaming that you have to keep asking for nerfs?

Edited by SpacemanSpff434: 4/18/2017 12:34:31 PMYou know the sandbox team was straight out of answers when they just took away special ammo (and sadly that second heavy box). It shouldn't have been this hard. Or learn a lesson and don't introduce so many guns within a same family. Don't have short range, medium range and long range pulses. Have medium range pulse. Have short range autos. Have long range scouts If they can't manage the archetypes within the archetypes don't have so many.

It would seem more than a few guardians have no clue what Sarcasm is. 🤔
-
That's why I hope trials isn't in Destiny 2, I know it might return, but I hope it's the tightest sbmm ever.
-
[quote]- Fusion Rifles. Why are they even in the game still Bungie? Remove them entirely [/quote] No
-
That fist of havoc one is actually a buff.
-
This is satire right? I can hardly take it seriously.

Edited by LFF_Wreckz: 4/17/2017 7:30:09 PMOk, ok, ok. Is this a joke? Seriously, I don't even know. This post sounds so foolish and actually rediculous. Nerfing things is EXACTLY what bungie nerds to STOP doing. What you are saying is you want to destroy this game. Remove fusion rifles? Mida? Make hand cannons special weapons? You can't make montage clips anymore with striker titan fist of havoc? Are you SERIOUS??? Please, tell me you are joking. If this is true and this is what you want bungie to do, you should stop playing destiny altogether. Please reply saying u r joking, this is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. The special ammo change is the only thing in destiny that sucks right now. Yes, maybe the matchmaking too. But what you truly are asking for right now from bungie is to obliterate this game. All these changes to weapons you are asking for is bad. Please reply asap and tell me if you are joking. -lukeff0809

I was so ready to start a rant in the comments when I got to the end. This is so great.
-
I'm in. I was wondering where you were headed with this at first. It's brilliant. If the trials people have their own game there's no reason to bother the rest of us.

I was like 'what the fu- oh... satire...' then I broke out laughing at the end lol.
-
The satire is strong with this one.
-
I couldn't believe this as I was reading, you got me XD
-
Confused at first, intrigued second, hysterical be the end. Good post lol
-
I see what you did there.
-
Look at this satire. 😇
