My god, this thread is so full of salty bitches

Oh wow a bow?! Will that be next next overpowered meta 90% of people in PvP use? Man, Bungie does PvP right. All these other games you can use a wide variety of weapons, no one really wants that. What everyone wants is just 1 or 2 weapons that are the only usable option because no other weapon can match the damage output. Way to go Cozmo and all of Bungie.

I hope someone who works a bungie sees this, I know you will not....but one can hope. It will most likely be removed by one of your ninjas....and as there is no real way to contact anyone at bungie this is the best bet.....sooo....I have play many hours of destiny, about 1000 in d1 and almost 900 in d2. Crucible as everyone knows is the true end game, where in the stale waiting periods between content releases people to go complete achievements and generally have a good time. This is no longer the case, your PvP has become diseased, and disgusting. You pad people's confidence with info about new dlcs and year 2 of destiny. However nit once have you addressed any of the issues at the core of your games PvP experience. The sandbox is broken, you gave hunters a way to heal instantly every 15 seconds at the high end, and gave no way to counter, and will only recently give warlocks the same, but Titans can just -blam!- themselves I guess, because you know, crest of alpha lupi heals you completely right? Oh wait, not even close. Secondly, you saw everyone was rerolling to hunter to play nightsalker, so you make nightstalker and the pairing of jemimi jesters obsolete and buff the hell out of arc striders and give them instant healing. You say you increased movement speed to arc striders, strikers and sentinels when supers are popped to Max movement, but you clearly did not take into account the fact that you buffed the -blam!- out of arc striders hit detection distance, so that buff was irrelevant to anyone else...you can rarely outrun or out maneuver them, unless you have a cross map head start. It's almost as though no one really play tests anything at bungie....funny....there is clearly a balance issue when I and many ppl I know have at least 8000 more hunter kills in crucible then any other class...and no it's not because hunters are easier to kill, they are actually quite the opposite now with wormhusk, it's because now most games, are 60 - 75% arc striders. Next, the weapon balance, it's the same issue, you seam to nimot play test your fixes, you decide....pulses are not used let's buff them, but them you also buff exotics...so you end up with a pulse rifle meta, and grav Lance and the wing are the only real viable competitive pulses you can use...I am not saying others do not stand up to them, but it typically takes a skilled hand, to even try and compete...all of this matched with your terrible p2p server connections where lag, is almost a must, and things are never as they seem are almost unplayable at a higher level of gameplay. Yesterday in competitive I matched against a team from Australia, because you made competitive sbmm, and they had host...my team in North America was almost 1 second behind our enemy team in in-game interactions....so the outcome of this game is almost directly controlled by host and relation geographically to the host...it is absolutely insane and absurd, especially because you sit there in video docs saying we are so hyped about ranked competitive, it is sooo good...no it really isn't, it is terrible, it is diseased and it needs to be addressed along with so many other huge and important issues....but instead you waste time fixing issues with weapon ornaments and meanial "stupid crap" I would honestly like to know if any of these real issues will ever be addressed by you, let alone fixed? As if not, then myself, a dedicated destiny "fanboy" from the start is done man

more like a deep dive on extinction, population is lowest than ever before, and we are still in June... when is next dlc coming?... hold on, doesnt matter, requires $70 extra bucks

Bring back heavy machine guns

I must admit of all the weapons you guys could have introduced into the game, I would never have guessed bows as a crowd pleaser. Who makes these design decisions?

Just gonna say my guess is that the reason why a bow works is similar to swords: we have the Light. Light = paracausality. Paracausality means we can use whatever the flip we want to kill what we want to kill. (Not exactly, but also exactly because space magic/fakebutnotsofake physics.) If you figure out a way to imbue a pebble with your light and kill something with it, please tell me.

Y2, week 1 weapon’s patch addressing PvP bow damage.

I would have preferred a lightsaber...

No one cares. Another week and still no word on the dumb as shit strike catalysts. Hello!? A tiny fraction of the player base has found one. Do we need to grind 12 hours a day to find one. I thought this game was a hobby, not a boring ass job.

If for some reason I was foolish enough to pick this game up on say Xbox and pc. Then paid for all the content like a mindless exo why would a company that claims they want to do what’s best for the player not let me transfer my account back and forth. I mean come on.

Haha behind the scenes look....LOL like it's some marvelous feat. Literally copied nightstalker bow and just made it weapon. They literally want "GOOD JOB!" For copy/pasting now?

Looks incredible. I can’t wait to work on a Bow/Sword loadout. No guns. 💪👊😎

Bungie fix your -blam!-ing game!! This graviton lance bullshit is going too far!

Probably somewhere in that in depth hands on and design process someone should have looked at how the strings and cams on a compound bow actually work. It's not just a recurve with some cams bolted on the end...

How bout a deep dive on this issue? [spoiler]WILL PLAYERS WHO DON’T BUY FORSAKEN BE ABLE TO ACQUIRE AND [b]USE[/b] Y2 WEAPONS?[/spoiler] You’ve done a great job avoiding this question.
