Ammo mag sizes, public events, and leaches.

Gripe Number 1: This game is set in a future with technology superior to what we have in real life today, right? So why then do we have shotguns with a max magazine capacity of 7, that has to be reloaded one round at a time, and no notification click or other sound when you are completely out of ammo? What, has nobody at Bungie ever heard of a shotgun with a drum magazine, or a quick reload. If you are really at war, and your life depends on your ability to take down your enemies quickly so that you don't get overwhelmed, the Secret Handshake isn't going to work, and you are definitely not going to be casually taking your time to reload the damn thing while your enemy is rushing you and firing on you as fast as they can. Also, how is it that none of the enemies in Destiny EVER run out of ammo, but Guardians can't seem to keep ammo in their guns? And the same grip applies to sniper rifles,... 4, 5, and 6 rounds in a magazine at most,.. really? How can technology be so advanced as to have sentient, intelligent, "living" robots, and yet they can't figure out how to make sniper rifles with magazines big enough to be of use in a war? In real life, we have sniper rifles with 21 round clips. How did you come to the decisions you made concerning clip/magazine sizes, and not include drum magazines on weapons that the Guardians are supposed to use in a war to save Earth? Gripe Number 2: Public Events, and other activities that someone may be forced to do ALONE. Not everyone has his/her own army of friends readily available to do VoG or Public Events, etc.. So here again you have made some aspects of this game dependent upon something that may be impossible for some. For example,.. I can go to The Divide on Earth, and take out a Devil Walker by myself, but can't Eliminate a Target by myself, because his damn shield and health replenish so fast that I can't reload fast enough to keep them down? Gripe Number 3: Leaches!! I can't even recall how many times I have completed a public event by myself as some idiot watches me expend all of my ammo, and doesn't even try to help. But, because they took one shot at one enemy, and then shadowed me as I did all the work, they of course get a Gold Rating on a Public Event, AND to add insult to injury, THEY get a Ascendant Shard/Energy, but I DON'T! Couldn't you at least make it require more effort towards completing something to collect a reward, and more importantly reward the person who deserves it instead of a lazy leach? Come on Bungie,.. you guys have awesome ideas, and you make great games, but there are so many aggravating little things that need to be fixed, because they kill the game for those who love your games. I thought this one would be one of those games that I wouldn't be able to stop playing. But because of so much stress, frustration, and aggravation arising out of so many little annoyances, and problems related to leveling and upgrading,.. I find myself going for days without playing. Fix it Bungie, and you will not lose some of us, in fact you WILL regain some that you HAVE lost, and even win some new ones.

  • Bump for parts... as for not having friends to run raids with... there are PLENTY of 3rd party sites that make it easy. I personally use destinylfg.net and never struggle to find raid teams, and if the players are good we end up on each others friends list to be able to run it again next week
