Before crying. Wait for the other 3.0 subclasses. And no...this game is not about the gunplay. It is about the abilities we have as gaurdians. For gunplay go play CoD.

  • The game is not *just* about gunplay, but also is about powers and abilities. We don’t get new powers and abilities playing dungeons, nightfalls, raids, etc. Our rewards are weapons. Weapons used to kill stuff to get other weapons. Or to use against each other. These activities and builds we can make are also not designed to only use or even just primarily use powers and abilities. But powers and abilities are an important part of the game. Helping to control large groups of enemies, or do heavy burst damage, or survive a little longer. Gunplay in Destiny feels better than a lot of other games, because a great deal of thought and care went into that aspect. Because it is an important aspect of the game.

  • Yikes. This is the fear I have, that the other 3.0's will be just as overtuned. D2 has guns and is about gunplay. Why do Bungie have such a focus (focus for lack of a better word) on PVP with lowering ability spam if gunplay doesnt matter? Why would they state that they want us to shoot more and throw supers less? I get we are meant to be space mages, which admittedly should be leant into more, but c'mon, 70% of your damage output is coming from a weapon, not an abilitiy. But with Void 3.0, that can readily be called into question. (And no, CoD can go die. GTFO, Activision)

  • Bungie nerfs some ability cooldown because we have so many exotics that recharge them faster. But they also buffed some cooldowns. Firebolt went from 30 seconds to 16 seconds at tier 100 Duskfield went from 1.30 minute to 26 seconds at tier 100. Bubble went from 9 minutes to 6 minutes at tier 100. With exotics for example. Verity's brow... 1 kill with the same element weapon as your subclass gives you effectively 300 discipline as a stat for 10 seconds. Mk.44 stand asides give you 50% of your SC back on a hit. Young ahamkara's give you 33% of your tripmine back on ability hits.

    Fair. My main point in response is that we have guns, are told to use them and yet are encouraged not to use them. They have a system they build so much around, and yet make it feel like they would rather us not. They say they want more 'shooty shooty' and less ability spam, and yet they give us exotics that give us considerably faster cooldowns and Void 3.0. Im not saying 'hypocrisy', but...
