Special ammo cheating in Crimson Doubles

Some shady players are using the Ice Breaker and the Invective to "create" special ammo, and then switch to another special weapon and retain the ammo. In essence, they are cheating the system, as you do not start with special ammo. Giving these guys an unfair advantage in Crimson Doubles.

  • Invective does not spawn with ammo. And by the time the 1st lot generates, I'm nearly ready to grab my 1st synth crate anyway...

            I know that Bungie put these weapons out there, negating any chance for special ammo control. But why the heck can't we show some control of our own? Bungie might not make the best decisions all the time. But they have put effort into fixing issues with this game. No, it hasn't been perfect, but they aren't the issue here The problem here is us as players. Their efforts to fix the game don't stand a chance when we already have decided how to make their changes completely irrelevant before the patch even comes out. Why the heck would they want to make us happy when we just crap on everything they do? We deserve half assed auto rifle buffs and laggy raid bosses because we can't think outside the box and try something different when the opportunity shows itself. They put this patch out to stop us from those ridiculous sniping stare downs and to encourage primary weapon usage, and we just give em a big FU cuz adapting is like going to prison. This game's mess is the players' faults (and least in this case) not bungie Ok rant over. WRECKOGNIZED 4 LIFE!

          • It is a very cheap method. I still do it. Doesn't really help me though cause I'm not that good. Odds are you'll beat me.

          • So are you saying using icebreaker is cheating? If so, absolutely not, it's not that good a sniper so the infinite ammo makes up for it However, getting 6 rounds in 48 seconds then switching to a different special is definitely cheap, although not technically cheating

            • I have a reasonable solution. Use Icebreaker or Invective.

              • The Bungie news article said the change was to promote the use of primary weapons at the start of the game. The self generating ammo weapons taken time and can't be used straight away so the change is having the effect that Bungie intended. There was nothing about using the self generating ammo to be certain you have ammo later on in the game and able to swap weapons to use it on something more useful.

              • I don't use Icebreaker in crucible, but I do use Invective and the way Invective works is it generates four shots at a time. You start with zero and by the time you get your first four the ammo crates are already available. And I have switched from Invective to my Strong Bow once just because I wanted to use an exotic primary mid match and all my shotgun ammo disappeared. So yeah....

                    • "Unfair advantage" It's not unfair if it's built into the game. Do it yourself, then you'll be on an even playing field. It's literally designed to do this. You're getting mad because people are using something as its designed?

                        • The problem is how Bungie overlooked this seemingly obvious issue.

                        • This isn't cheating, its strategy. Sounds like a complaint from someone who doesn't own an invective or ice breaker.

                          • That's true. I've been sniped within 10 seconds of starting a match. But you know what? You can do it too!

                          • I grinded for that weapon in a game called destiny. I will use it in the game destiny which I paid for.
