At first I was getting -blam!- and frustrated as hell. I've been so use to TLW/ sniper combo and TLW is very situational now.
I have switched to red death and my longbow and have had to alter my playstyle quite a bit, but I've now been having a blast.
It took quite a while to learn the sniping lines on the new maps as well.
On another note, the current pvp is great in that the cooldowns are extremely slow.... Meaning noobs aren't running around supering and chucking nades constantly. True gunskill is showing. :D woot woot!!!
How is everyone else faring in pvp?
Finally went PHANTOM!!!! :D

I'm having a lot of fun with the new maps. Going to try Rift this weekend. A note about shotguns: People still complaining about getting killed by shotguns are on crack. You can't hit the broad side of a barn from more than 2 meters away with a shotgun. When I kill you with a shotgun, it's because you were irresponsibly close to me. I've died a bunch of times this week when I went for a shotgun kill, discovered in a moment of confusion that I was too far, and got wrecked by a backpedaling Red Death dude, ha ha.

I have done pretty good so far now that there are a lot less thorns and last words

The new maps r the only new thing to me really, crucible feels the same, my hopscotch isnt as smooth tho, thats about it
-
I am loving the necrochasm! It allows me to be very aggressive, and in tandem with a sniper it is very strong. Ive never used a sniper before 2.0, but the combination is great for all maps.

15 AntwortenBearbeitet von JSpaso: 9/11/2015 4:43:41 PMI've always used the mida multi tool. I'm in less situations where I'm at a disadvantage now. I'm mediocre at best with a 1.1 k/d but I haven't noticed anything from my side. Maybe the speed boost feels nerfed but that's probably in my head. I win a lot more fire fights now because I'm not 1 shotted by shotguns or sniper or hand cannons.

The weapons are fine, just learning the new maps, keep dying a lot while I'm exploring or lost.haha

Took a bit to get use to it, but I love it. But those firebolt grenades tho. Talk about no range.

Been enjoying it. I can play with other guns without feeling it'll effect me negatively. Was struggle with the test FR bounty on Wednesday. Decided to try clash out as I only play control. Clash tended to be crutch weapon users and campers. I got my last 6 kills with it in a few minutes. I was beaming. Then I pulled out the test sniper (I never snipe.) got three kills right of the bat. Racked two more with it up in the game and plan to finish it up after work. I'm frustrated at times while playing but it's more at my own faults. Like I can't believe I didn't see him, or damnit I should have shot faster/ADS quicker. It's not due to feeling cheated by others.

At first I kept going negative, and I've been getting around 2.0 kd for the last month, but now that I'm starting to know the maps I'm actually starting to go positive now

9 AntwortenBearbeitet von JesseBear36: 9/11/2015 9:38:48 AMfeels like Bungie catered to the unskilled... it's just ARs spraying everywhere and pulse rifles from a distance. As a HC enthusiast since the beginning, i really enjoy the precision and power of a HC as a primary (something COD games always lacked). A nerf to HCs, that's fine... but buffing everything else simply made some weapons out balance the gameplay. guess I prefer everyone using HCs then a spray fest of bullets from ARs and pulse rifles. Bungie... fact that no one uses HCs anymore means you messed up on the nerf. I expected some people to stop using HCs, but Bungie made it so it's near impossible to compete over any distance beyond 10-15 feet.

I've got a dozen or maps in, feels about the same. I still get my ass handed to me by shotguns and red death. I'm still getting a KD between .5 and 1.5 on any given map. That is also with trying out those test guns from Omolon.. I haven't found that much change other than I don't find myself being hit from the other side of the map with a hand cannon anymore. I do find the new maps i've played so far are really shotgun friendly with lots of tight corners
-
I rock NLB most of the time, so that hasn't changed, but I've been using fusions a bit more now to cover that close-medium gap a bit more instead of a shotgun, which is fine because I love fusions. On a side note, I've been running my messenger with pocket infinity a lot too. So happy that PI is back to being useable again, but I think people forgot it exists because it was so bad before. It's not back to its former glory and it'll still get out-charged/ranged by plan c but it's definitely nice to bust that bad boy out again.

My k/d has been higher these past few days but I'm really missing the last word. I've yet to find the new gun I will rock so I've been switching between MIDA, VoC, hopscotch, red death, TLW, thorn, necro, etc.
-
I'm good and only feel like the update is making me better.
-
Ive noticed my kd go up quite a bit. Granted ive been using the multitool for a while now, even during trials. So I adapted to having a really good strafe and spacing between my opponent. I feel like that is transitioning into this new meta. So I went from 18 kills 2-5 deaths to 23-28 kills with 2-7 deaths.

Bearbeitet von Jet Set Willy: 9/11/2015 3:59:21 PMTried Hard Light, Monte Carlo, Pest Control Matrix then went back to using the Vex, VoC and will try Red Death again later. I'm not getting used to the new maps very quickly so my already poor k/d isn't improving. I saw someone get phantom in a game today. Had never saw that before.

Top three on the Leader board nearly every match. Love the balance.

I'm actually liking it. Don't play much PVP, but I really like the variety of weapons being used. I think I get killed the most by The Messenger, but it's all good. At least I'm having fun!

It sucks

I do like that there are fewer supers around. I've been using Hard Light and No Land Beyond and having a lot of fun. Gonna try out Shadow Price and Suros soon.
