It astounds me that people rushed out to buy a game published by the same company that brought you Halo and Marathon and somehow believe they were completely sold a bill of goods.
Did you honestly think this would be more MMO than Shooter? Did you honestly think that PVP wasn't going to be (or shouldn't be) a major component in a console shooter?
The game has some flaws, no doubt but I see far too many people grousing over what they imagined the game was going to be contrary to all available evidence and history instead of the actual flaws.
If you want a game that is devoid of PVP you should never even have picked up a Bungie title. So many people throwing around "COD Noobs" as an insult. Did you play Halo?
If you have legit concerns such as the glitches and/or Mechanic changes in raids so be it. But all this blame on PVP is ridiculous. Even the nerfs to weapons (which for the record I don't think were necessary) aren't materially preventing anyone from completing content.
If all you're looking for is status gear, achievements, and Raid Content just go back to WoW. Even if executed perfectly this was never going to be the game for you.

Well put. Although I think the balancing was good for PvP and to add more variety of what makes a viable weapon.
