Ok, primary weapons have become pretty much useless. All people do now is stay in the air near Dorr ways and corners and wait to shotgun, or you get titans with juggernaut just pissing people off with the shield and shotgun combo. You can't counter shotguns reliably if ever in this game now. They have nerfed everything to the point where you are forced to run a shotgun just to stay alive. And supremely has pretty much been infested with shotguns since it released. Comon bungie. Give my primary some nuts!

Don't you mean shotgun heaven.

Agree completely. The simple solution from day one on snipers and shotguns is to make a primary only mode. 90% of the players complain about one or the other or even both, so just make a mode without them.

Its this whole jumping shotgun. Extremely effective.. but everyone looks like prancing ponies.

It's only bad in 6v6, and maybe rumble to a small degree. In 3s the map is less cramped, which leads to more primary and sniper usage.

1 ReplyThey should buff primaries so all primaries have the same ttk of .9 sec all primaries should kill in the same amount of time this would bring a lot more weapon diversity. I doubt they will or can do it though.

I prefer this over the Sniper Meta. Turn the corner and you'll get sniped by the high aim-assist snipers.

I like it this way ;)

As long as we pick the winners, this game is bpund to make it to mlg scene *high ten* Lets push back destiny 2 and deliver another shallow dlc, oh my god how are not rich already *high twenty* Bro, as long as we have full control of 'ghost bullets' we can totally decide who wins matches! We can't stop there!!! Ensure our win loss policy by halving shotgun range when it's someone's turn to lose! Other guy: and let's rig melees to not work too! Bro! Brooooo! Grenade damage minimized? Let's do that too! -blam!- it, let's -blam!- up spawns too while we're at it! And just blame it on the community's connection! *proceeds to toss money in air*

Mehh.

4 RepliesCrucible actually feels good again. The pace has picked up and just feels alot quicker and more aggressive. Supremacy is brilliant as it encourages people to move around the map.

Cool, the boring year long sniper meta was tired.

1 Replyso many shotguns i'm forced to camp in the back with my scout. so far so good.

6 RepliesWtf is the point of primaries if no-one uses them? -___- should reduce green ammo even further.
-
Funny because the only time a shotgun rusher gets me is by surprise.

11 RepliesProtip: shotguns won't do squat if you don't blindly run head on to the enemy.

Guys getting a headshot with a sniper and killing me after taking 3 crits from Mida was more annoying than this. You can back up and kill a shotgunner most of the time. Be honest everyone did you like matches of control going to time because everyone stayed back and passively played with snipers I'll take my primary versus shotgun rushers any day over guns pulling off the head shot when they are 1 shot or just 1 aggressive gust of wind from death

7 RepliesThe problem is that bungie nerfed snipers causing them to be nearly impossible to use in cqc. That's why i switched to shotty a few months ago
-
Yeah I am seeing this so much, I decided to test with a defender shot gun mix and you top the leader board everytime it's ridiculous I feel like such a jammy git for doing it but it's the only way to get kills there, it's sad really

Suros raid automatic rifle, side arms, fusion rifles, OR a sniper if you're a no-life try hard.

2 RepliesToooooo happy that it is NOT a sniper fest.

I took a little break from destiny during the dark ages of sniper (more specifically 1KYS) hell. Came back and shotguns reign supreme again. However, I've still been doing fairly decent with a hand cannon or fusion rifle and I've got a friend who pretty much destroys people with a side arm. Just try to keep your distance. It's unfortunate but I don't think bungie will every be able to "balance" crucible the way everyone would like without severely limiting the amount of special ammo during each match. But I'm still having fun with it! Good luck!

Edited by The Doctor: 9/27/2016 6:52:34 AMYou miss sniper body shoot and one shoot primary weapon.

5 RepliesLmao i thought snipers were op? Now shotguns? Does this community ever stop complaining?
-
6 RepliesOr Bungie could make maps where shotguns would need to be used more strategically instead of CQ maps 24/7, but we all know that's never going to happen. Same reason why I never play PvP in CoD, the maps are so suffocatingly small.

People should really stop Party Crashing, before I get 64 Matadors to Steal their Will; In Times of Need.

I think of it as shotgun heaven.
