please explain to me why fusion rifles aren't op
It is ridiculous. There is literally no counter. Dodging only works on complete idiots. I used plan c for a week and demolished with no effort. They are worse than the original shotguns. Please explain to me how they aren't op.

It's hard to really know what weapon is truly over powered. This is because of the crap net code those chose to use, fusion rifles go off instantly all the time I my screen. No everyone is not cheating in this game it's just the lag means they see you first or you see them first. So really any instant hit and kill gun in the current set up should be removed including sniper rifles.

Charge up time dodge em yo

Charge time? If you weren't playing against idiots they'd be able to kill you pre-charge and from long range. I use fusion rifles often and against skilled players I get outgunned, so I switch to hawkmoon and one shot them ;)

1 ReplyThe rocket launcher is op as well. And the sniper. Certain.maps and how we play them.lend themselves to certain weapons. Plan c is an exotic fusion rifle it does what is meant, at sniping range though , how useful is it really?

3 Repliesdon't mind them...well except Plan C...that thing is a sniper/fusion rifle hybrid

3 RepliesI don't have an issue with the power of the FR's or shotguns, but I think the amount of special ammo needs to be taken down a few notches. At most you should get one full magazine, special should not drop from killed enemies, and spawning of special ammo boxes should be more often than heavy obviously but less often than now. It's the amount of ammo and the frequency that allows people to run around with the weapons as if they are primaries.

They fill the role that shotguns do in other shooters. Shotguns in Destiny are little more than glorified melee attacks.

3 RepliesI'm really disliking fusion rifles. Sick of firing straight headshots at enemies while strafing and before I can get the kill they've dropped me because how damn fast the fusion rifles charge. What's more frustrating is when I'll get behind cover before the shit fires and [b]still[/b] die by some dark miracle. People claim "oh the range is their downfall though", not the case. Tonight alone I've been one shot from halfway across the map on control by fusion rifles at least eight times. Most matches now, all you hear is constant charging of fusion rifles, some players using ONLY fusion rifles all game. I don't "cry" about anything that kills me, nor do I throw around "nerf" suggestions all the time, but fusion rifles are getting ridiculous. I don't even see variety, just Plan C and Pocket Infinity every game, rarely I'll see a 77 Wizard. You can counter shotguns, snipers are rarely used but still have counters, fusion rifles though...even with shit connection they still pull heaps of kills, some fire fast enough to kill multiple enemies in the time it would take to empty half a clip from an auto rifle. Crucible during "fusion rifle spree" bounties? Hell on Earth, or whatever planet you're thrown on.

3 RepliesCan't wait to use a fusion rifle that charges for 5 seconds in PvE... In all seriousness though, if you always find yourself in the situation where you keep getting killed by fusion rifles then stand back a bit, maybe use a scout rifle/sniper set up. There will never be perfect balance since nerfing guns in PvP will also mean nerfing guns in PvE - Bungie doesn't seem to distinguish the difference between the two I think so that's why they are incapable of only nerfing it for PvP.

Because my pocket of infinity rip them apart ! Hehe

1 ReplyBecause they can only melt you from 50m away with minimal effort! The range should be at least 500m to kill! It takes like .5 seconds to charge and it should just be full automatic!! They're so underpowered! I bought 7 Plan C's from Xur and they're so weak!!!111!!1 Git gud scrub Git rekt Shut up m3g 3/69 tears collected

I use shotties and snipers much more often. They have their place, but I find they're too slow for a decent PVP game. I love grinding them in PVE a, though, especially some of the more intense activities.

Edited by miggyriggz: 12/8/2014 1:02:01 PMI can't explain as they are OP IMO - I've used them now and then and everytime I think -blam!- man a one shot kill from that range! - It should be the same as a shotgun imo I now use a maxed VM and that too is way OP - but that's awesome :p

I do not find them oppressive as I tend to play around them. Sometimes the opponent gets the drop on me, but that happens with any weapon, however I've killed my fair share of people using Fusion Rifles, but moving, shooting at distance, shotgun to the face. The reason I find people hate them is because when all shots land it is a one hit kill. I am used to that from Call of Duty and Counter Strike so guess I am not fussed, and my opinion is biased because of this.

Headshots w/ scout rifle.
-
Because unlike shotguns you have to charge them for 0.00000000001 seconds.
-
because a normal fusion rifle takes 1.5 seconds to load in which you could shotgun-fist everyone out of existence.
-
What sucks is you can't get enough shots off to kill a person holding a fusion rifle.
