        Why does anyone expect vault space or matchmaking when it takes them over 6 months to fix an ammo bug?

          • DeeJ, I know it is commonly referred to as the Heavy Ammo Bug, but Bungie is aware it actually affects ALL ammo types, right? I read the article on how they isolated it to the creation order when a character spawns. I'm sure the fix will take care of all of it, but please forgive me for being a little nervous as none of the other ammo types get mentioned.

          • So why do you think bungie made the necrochasm such as useless gun, and why such a low drop rate for a gun that's going to sit in the vault??

              [b]Exotic Weapon Ideas.[/b] Exotic Weapons are brilliant. The holy grail that everyone in Destiny seeks. This post is dedicated to coming up with ideas for new exotic weapons. Exotic Weapon classes: [i]- Railgun - Grenade launcher - Force rifle - Fusion cannon - Plasma smg - Photon rifle - Raygun - Laser cannon[/i] These are just some of my class ideas. If you could design an exotic weapon what would it be and what special abilities would it have? Below is a list of my weapon ideas. I will add to this and update it accordingly. Please feel free to use my ideas and let me know of any improvements that could be implemented. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ [b]System 51 [/b] [i]Damage type : Void Weapon type : Raygun Parent type : Primary weapon Fire mode : Semi-automatic Magazine : 1 Class : Exotic[/i] [i]Abilities:[/i] ⊙Hip fire ⊙[b]Fission;[/b] charges up after every shot ⊙[b]Ionization;[/b] shots penetrate un-shielded targets, disabling an enemy shield causes an explosion. [i]Mods:[/i] ⊙Lightweight ⊙Fitted stock ⊙Hammer forged [i]Description:[/i] System 51 is an exotic Raygun. It has unlimited ammo but must recharge after every shot. It's ray over-penetrates targets(unless shielded) that ricochet on surfaces. If an enemy shield is disabled then it explodes, causing elemental damage to surrounding enemies in a 3 meter radius. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ [b]Phantom[/b] [i]Damage type : Void Weapon type : Fusion cannon Parent type : Heavy weapon Fire mode : Semi-automatic Magazine : 2 Reserve ammo : 2 Class : Exotic[/i] [i]Abilities:[/i] ⊙Grenades and Horseshoes. ⊙[b]Devouring light;[/b] creates a vortex that draws in enemies before exploding. [i]Mods:[/i] ⊙Javelin ⊙Quick draw ⊙Flared magwell [i]Description:[/i] Phantom is an exotic Fusion cannon. It must be charged much like a fusion rifle before launching a sphere of energy on an arched trajectory. This creates a vortex upon collision that draws in nearby enemies before exploding and causing void burn. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ [b]Buzzkill[/b] [i]Damage type : Arc Weapon type : Force rifle Parent type : Primary weapon Fire mode : Fully-automatic Magazine : 40 Reserve ammo : 380 Class : Exotic[/i] [i]Abilities:[/i] ⊙Crowd control ⊙[b]Surge;[/b] arc energy forks to enemies near the target. Kills reduce shield regeneration cycle. [i]Mods:[/i] ⊙Unflinching ⊙Hammer forged ⊙Perfect balance [i]Description:[/i] Buzzkill is an exotic Force rifle. It fires a continuous arc of electricity that forks to enemies around the target. killing enemies reduces the time the players shield initiates it's next charge cycle. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ [b]Short Circuit[/b] [i]Damage type : Arc Weapon type : Grenade launcher Parent type : Heavy weapon Fire mode : Semi-automatic Magazine : 3 Reserve ammo : 9 Class : Exotic[/i] [i]Abilities:[/i] ⊙Grenadier ⊙[b]Parasitic;[/b] grenades stick to enemies and cause bonus damage. [i]Mods:[/i] ⊙Quick draw ⊙Heavy payload ⊙Hammer forged [i]Description:[/i] Short Circuit is an exotic Grenade launcher that fires sticky arc grenades that cause more damage when attached to enemies. The fire rate is moderate but it has a long reload as the grenades are loaded individually. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ [b]Shredder[/b] [i]Damage type : Void Weapon type : Plasma smg Parent type : Special weapon Fire mode : Fully-automatic/Charge Magazine : 35 Reserve ammo : 280 Class : Exotic[/i] [i]Abilities:[/i] ⊙Glass half-full ⊙[b]Bilingual;[/b] fires like a fusion rifle when hip fired. Whilst ads the shredder fires a continuous flurry of plasma gel. [i]Mods:[/i] ⊙Fitted stock ⊙Single point sling ⊙Snapshot [i]Description:[/i] Shredder is an exotic plasma smg. It fires a continuous flurry of plasma gel whilst ads but if hip fired it charges and fires a spread like a fusion rifle. If there is insufficient ammo remaining whilst attempting to hip fire Shredder it automatically reloads. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ [b]Illuminator[/b] [i]Damage type : Void Weapon type : Railgun Parent type : Special weapon Fire mode : Semi-automatic Magazine : 4 Reserve ammo : 12 Class : Exotic[/i] [i]Abilities:[/i] ⊙Final round ⊙[b]Blindside;[/b] precision kills blind nearby enemies. [i]Mods:[/i] ⊙Field scout ⊙Armour piercing rounds ⊙Quick draw [i]Description:[/i] Illuminator is an exotic Railgun. It acts like a sniper rifle. Firing a charged, superheated slug along a rail, it's precision kills cause blindness to enemies around the victim. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ [b]Pixelator[/b] [i]Damage type : Kinetic Weapon type : Photon rifle Parent type : Primary Fire mode : Semi-automatic/charge Magazine : 20 Reserve ammo : 180 Class : Exotic[/i] [i]Abilities:[/i] ⊙Spray and play ⊙Shoot to loot ⊙[b]Shield breaker;[/b] hitting an enemy shield with a fully charged shot causes increased damage. [i]Mods:[/i] ⊙Snap shot ⊙Fitted stock ⊙Armour piercing rounds [i]Description:[/i] Pixelator is an exotic Photon rifle that fires high-velocity beams of subatomic particles. It's unique firing mechanism is capable of firing a single shot in succession much like a scout rifle, these shots require little pressure on the trigger but only initiate as the trigger is released. The Photon rifle has the ability to increase the damage output of a single shot exponentially but first must charge up. These shots require the trigger to be held down to initiate a charge cycle which stacks photon rounds from the clip into the current shot. The rifle can fire during any point of the charge cycle by releasing the trigger but it's damage output will be dependant on how many rounds have been stacked. The rifle has a stack limit of 5 rounds which cause 5x the base damage when fired. If the weapon is discharged before the stack limit is reached, for example the weapon is fired with only 3 rounds stacked then the shot will only do 3x the base damage. Feathering the trigger will shoot rapidly like a scout rifle but every shot will only do base damage. The charge rate is equal to the fire rate, so the time it takes the weapon to stack 5 shots in a charge will be the same as the time it takes to fire 5 individually shots. Furthermore, the Proton rifle can be charged from the hip before entering ads mode to release the shot. Also if there is only a fraction of ammo left in the mag, say 3 rounds remain then the rifles stack limit will be 3. If the Photon rifle is overcharged it will automatically discharge but does not do so instantly. The time in which the gun reaches the charge limit is the same as if the gun charged to 3 shots higher than the stack limit. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This is just a fun, creative post. Positive community input is most welcome.

                Hey guys...hate to break it to you but balancing EVERY single weapon in the game actually BREAKS the game rather than fixes it. Weapons such as the Vex or the Nechrochasm, which arguably require the most difficulty to obtain, SHOULD REMAIN the most powerful by a fair margin and NOT a slight improvement.

                  • What i want for the next expansion: more weapons AND ARMORS quest (for solo and fireteam), more glimmer in the pocket also crucible and vanguards points, more story than the shit you give us in this DLC, more strikes, no radar for crucible (or new room optional), shit for the ghost i dont know why it have stock box, new restock for the vendor (they have a timer but is the same bullshit), new kind of trade for materials: shards, coins and stuff. Thats all i think.

                      Rumors, not facts. 1. Gjallahorn IS in xur's rotation. 2. I f you do hard mode first you get both hard mode and normal mode rewards. yes it really -blam!-ing does. quite lying to yourselves. 3. No class is op, we all have our op perks. 4. There are more chest in the Vault of Glass, we haven't found...YET. Bungie even confirmed it in a stream with dads of destiny like yesterday. 5. Hardlight CANNOT shoot through the ward of dawn shield. See moreconsole video, he confirmed it. 6. No there isn't a singing dreg in cosmodrome taking a shower in the little waterfall on the way to the forgotten shore. 7. Killing the gatekeeper on hard while fighting crota doesn't give you Grimoire. 8. Harpies do NOT give you Herpes. (some idiots) 9. The word of crota does NOT have infinite ammo with the phantom gift perk. 10. Fang of ir yut doesn't stop shield degeneration or poison the enemy. 11. Xur IS random. 12. Using the Halloween acolyte helm does NOT increase your chance at getting exotics. 13. Radiant dance machines do NOT allow hunters to dance faster. 14. No land beyond REALLY does suck. Period, nothing else to it. 15. No you can't visit the reef.....YET! 16. The chest that you can get after defeating the templar, which btw is just a normal chest, does not and i repeat DOES NOT START A -blam!-ING TIMER OR DECREASE YOUR CHANCE AT GETTING EXOTICS AT THE EXOTIC CHEST! GTFO if you still believe this. me and my friend got exotics from the exotic chest and opened the normal one. And we took forever getting there. 17. Fang of ir yut can only be obtained from defeating crota, not the death singer. nor can you get song of ir yut from that section. 18. The second chest in the gorgons maze is NOT an exotic chest. 19. No Necrocasm is NOT good. 20. Hunters do not suck, don't let titans and warlocks cheat you out of using a very good class...not the best, nor the worst. None of them are. These are all rumors i have hear people in my fire teams claim they are true, but are not. I don't want there to be more ignorant people on destiny, so take this as advice from a person who HAS proved they are fake. PS: I didn't write the rumor, just the fact.

                      • If you really want to make a worth while change to weapons, change the options in armor! Why not allow us to upgrade the armor options? While I have upgraded my armor, I sometimes wished I could change the option of which weapon gets more ammo. This is especially true when it comes to the "increase ammo for sniper" and I am carrying an Ice Breaker. I'd rather have the option to increase the ammo for one of my other weapons.

                      • So, you all need to quit crying about the release date for HoW. Until you can understand how much work games like this actually take, keep your mouth shut. They need to implement the Raid, check for obvious cheeses, make sure the Raid doesn't affect anything else already in the game, and try to keep the servers running at full speed. There's not enough to do for you? That's good for you; not everyone can play 15 hours a day, some have jobs, or kids, or are just now getting the game. Heavy ammo shouldn't be a glitch, heavy ammo is a privilege, but if Bungie decides they don't want us to lose it, that's cool. What Xur sells is, RNG, not what Bungie decides for Xur to sell(to our knowledge). Also, if you actually read the article, they said they have a team working on more stuff for us to work on in the meantime. Maybe y'all could do daily stories, or max out your marks, or level factions. Go for something like shaders, or get better roles on faction guns. It's a little unreasonable that hardly any players use pulse rifles, so this is obviously a needed fix.

                        • I'm not entirely crazy here but can you do the math; the statistics don't line up, including a high variable and guessing all the statistics are spread through pvp and pve instead of all weapons in each aspect of play(seeing as the aforementioned is shown) the total percentage is between 84% and 92% which means either you can't do math or you're showing selective data
