Universal remote was considered garbage and useless by most people at the beginning of destiny. It has still got nothing but nerfs due to general shotgun nerfs.
Now, everything is so terrible that this gun is considered good, and maybe even overpowered.
How far we've come.....

Cozmo needs to reed this
-
It was never garbage. If anything its garbage compared to now. That thing was a real sniper in yr1 but primaries were much stronger and it was harder to close the gap. Now it's so good because primaries are so weak. It's kinda sad really.

Edited by Keskiviikko: 7/29/2016 1:28:53 PMHonestly I can't use the Universal Remote the sight is weird, the stats are bad compared to my satrienne rapier, and a primary shotgun? Why would this be good compared to most primaries (besides commons), But if you can use it then okay you can somehow use it. [spoiler]I can use dregs promise though[/spoiler]
-
It's still no better than any other shotgun if ya ask me. Party crasher arc type I should specify though.
-
I used it when it was "garbage", it was never bad IMO.

Please nerf the Univeral, Bungie. Sincerely, Every single guardian

Everything nerfed makes other things rise to the top. Shotguns will never be balanced in PvP as long as they are 1-shot kills no matter where you shoot someone.
-
Same thing happened with Mida ... One of the most balanced weapons in the game .. Anyway Universal remote was considered trash in year 1 due to the fact we had max range shotguns like the Felwinters lie , matador 64 , party crasher so compared to those guns it couldn't compete but after the many shotgun Nerfs UR still has Angola amount of range due to its exotic perk
-
I know right.
-
I remember when I got my first universal remote. It seemed no better than other shotguns. Kind of a novelty really. I hardly ever used it. My invective and even 4th horseman got more use.
-
Pvp is terrible. Ruining the game.
-
It's apparently called "balance"
-
It's the same reason the Mida is used so often after it got nerfed pretty hard. I barely saw it in year 1.
-
Constantly wreck universal remote users with my party crasher so.
-
Tell you right now. If this gun was in the special slot no one would complain.
-
Further proof destiny's weapon balancing has gone to hell.
-
its funny though because its still not the strongest shotgun, its only strong because its a primary shotgun, a party crasher with the right roll has a longer lethal range than a UR
-
I used to destroy the archon priest back in year one with universal
-
Power creep simple as that
-
Indeed! It's so funny how all the nerfs made this gun more or less OP haha.
-
I still think it's crap.
-
Ha....fun fact...sadly true 🤔
-
I know.. i never used it, as it was totall trash in my opinion. Unusable in pve, suicidal attempt against other shotguns in pvp in year 1. And now look.. all is so nerfed into the ground that it actually works for people.
-
Its range falls in line with current max-range Shotguns. In Year One, max-range Shotguns had a farther reach. That's the difference between Y1 and Y2 Universal Remote.

Fallen. How far we've fallen
