Revoker is also crazy and simply shouldn’t be able to give ammo back in crucible. Spawning with ammo is just simply a horrible idea. I can simply get a headshot and have my teammate die then pick up 3 more shots for free then get another 2 kills even miss a shot then get more special Ammo from pick ups. It shouldn’t be allowed, just add special drops like heavy pre shadow keep

Using a sniper, chances are you're far away from the actual fighting so repeatedly picking up special crates from fallen teammates isnt that common. The special ammo drops are moreso fine. I agree that the special ammo finder shouldn't be a thing as it encourages straight special usage, rather than a mix of everything.

Normally i would agree in other shooters that if your using a sniper the chances are you are going to be too far away to pick up ammo at an effective rate, such as halo. But Destiny it’s just not the case, even sniping at close range is extremely easy thanks to aim assist. I think making it where only one person on each team in a 6v6 or 3v3 having like 10ish rounds from a special drop pickup, then when dying not dropping any special ammo would help the game so much.

I dont think halo is a fair comparison simply because it's a classic arena type shooter. Everyone has the same weapons and snipers and other like power weapons have limited ammo, and set spawn times to influence how a map and game play out. Destiny, everyone can have everything, so the power imbalance isnt so much toward the weapon as it is the ammo. I think everyone starting off with two is fine, but hoarding it by using the gun efficiently and collecting ammo from the dead, especially as a sniper just doesnt make sense to me. If you're moving about the map and quick scoping people, chances are you'd be doing well regardless, and if you're far off sniping as the gun intends, then after 3 kills, the other team [i]should[/i] know to avoid that lane, or flank you if they're salty.

Well my issue with that is just simply isn’t a counter to that other then to use another sniper. Yes everyone can use it but that doesn’t mean it’s balanced. “If everyone has a nuke then the game is balanced” just isn’t true. For example when I play Trials I don’t use any special weapon or any armor exotic because I firmly believe these things ruin the gameplay and mode. Snipers not spawning with ammo means you have to do a lot within the match itself to be able to even have access to the weapons ammo, which balances it out.

You can never have "balance" in a fps unless everyone was literally using the same grenade, class, subclass, guns, and perks. That would be extremely boring, especially for a looter shooter, and scrubs would still find something to complain about for why they suck and are getting stomped in pvp. Tldr: There will never be "balance," git gud.

That's on you for not using exotics or special in trials, you're putting yourself at a severe disadvantage for what exactly? The moral high ground in a video game? I wont tell you what to do, but that's kind of dumb. The issue of having to work and earn your special ammo is that the chance at losing that hard work in less than a second just doesnt feel good if that's what you'd like to use. It also defeats the point of even making good special guns because they will see such little play that it almost feels like wasted design time
