The classes are balanced man I don't get the fuss. Not because I don't value opinions but I feel like people are talking about an "OP class" they didn't use. I played Alpha & the Beta, so far, way more than I care to admit to anyone outside these forums. I used all classes. IMO they are all balanced. [u]Why I think they're balanced[/u] I'm pretty good at the game I think. For who cares, My control K/D for Warlock is 1.78 & for hunter 1.71, I haven't used Titan much during the Beta so I won't list that one, but Titan was my first choice in Alpha. Warlock is my favorite. But more importantly, I don't even change my playstyle when I switch classes. I hop in vehicles when they're there. I jump on tall shit (whether I lifted, dbl jumped, or glided). I aim for the face at mid range. I snipe at long range. I throw a grenade at their feet around corners (albeit different grenade, different results). I shoot for a half second & melee when they're close (throwing knife w/ hunter is super cool tho one exception). There are obvious & noted differences with the supers & iron banner mode did expose me & make me change the way I play to a more calculated approach based on the situation but I still got in the shit at that choke point right outside B on the newest map with my "long range" (not tryna mock anyone just making a point) hunter & maintained that K/D (again, for those that care). Having played all classes well I think they're balanced man it just comes down to your preference. [u]My Only "Problems"[/u] Only thing I can say is I don't think Hunter's golden gun should one hit kill when you would have completely missed if using a hand cannon. Wouldn't know that getting killed by the thing, but using it, I was surprised at some of my kills. Also, as a titan, I hit some people with the super through objects & constructs that would block any grenade other than vortex. Idk if that's intended, but it happens. Everyone seems to talk about how they died or someone else did something but you can be good with any class regardless. I'd rather tell you about my own OP moments. And even with the viability of the golden gun & tanky titans in iron banner, warlocks still w/o a doubt my favorite class Just my two cents

Bungie didn't spend 6 years and $300,000,000 on a game that is unbalanced there are algorithms in every animation, gun statistic, enemy, and vehicle in the game. Every Guardian Class' Super Charge ability has it's weakness and strength. We need more time to explore the different ways to use each to its advantages. For example: 1. Hunter's Ghost Gun PROS: High Accuracy and Range +Highest damage CONS: Time Limit + Clip Limit (3 Bullets) 2. Warlock's Nova Bomb PROS: High Range + High damage + High Blast Radius CONS: Can kill Warlock if too close to impact 3. Titan's Smash PROS: Amazing in CQC + High damage + Blast Radius CONS: Limited to Close Quarter Combat

option #3 to early to tell.

Hunter pros: Golden Gun has high potential, possibly killing up to 9. Throwing knife is great for finishing off people when their shields drop. Incendiary Grenade is powerful and great for forcing people out of hiding. Overall good burst damage combined with high maneuverability. Double/triple jump provides useful escape options. Hunter cons: Golden Gun rarely reaches max potential kills; usually only 3. Golden Gun can't be used as a panic move like the other two classes. Throwing knife will get you killed if you miss or use it too early due to the recovery. Can't take hits well and shields take a while to regenerate Can be killed by Titans in one punch.

Just look at the leaderboard, warlocks obviously have a hard time and this reflects in what a lot of top players commented on: recovery doesn't help in most engagements and glide is the worst movement ability because it is too slow making you an easy target.That being said I think it will be balanced at 20 with teleport and possibly more overall cooldown reduction from more stats which will work in the warlock's favor since they have great abilities.

Yes, but I hate how whilst all the supers are "super", Titan and Warlock supers can be panic movies, whereas the Hunter has to be prepare well in advance for around the same amount of damage.

Classes balanced except for warlocks grenades as I've gotten triple kills from the grave as people looked at the grenade the wrong way and died. Primary weapons are not in pvp. Most people carry auto rifles as they are the best short-mid distance wep.

Titans in iron banner. So OP. Too much defense and damage. All they need is a good assault rifle, shotgun/sniper rifle, high armor gear. Its really sad as to how much crap they can take and walk away with only minor cuts and bruises.

All of them have OP moves. Which, in my opinion, makes them all balanced. I loved every second of the Beta so far. PvP was awesome.
