Specials are OP and that's good

What the heck is wrong with you people? Saying crap like, Special weapons are OP. I can't stop getting my head taken off by snipers. Or my favorite that shotgun is so stupid. No shit they are literally just Made to be stronger than other weapons. For example shotguns are made to be the most powerful possible weapon you could have for close range combat. So stop complaining, and nobody wants to here your sob story about the guy that crushed you in a crucible match. I'm kind of harsh over this, but it's true. Special weapons were made to be OP, it's just the way they are. No one complains about how the zombie apocalypse keeps out gunning their doctrine so why are we all complaining when snipers out gun scout rifles? (Edit) I think everyone here just doesn't like getting hit by sniper.s All the people arguing my point are saying the same thing. Snipers are op. They are to easy to use. Well so are shotguns. People seem to miss the fact that landing close range sniper shots takes a lot of skill yeah at long range snipers have low flinch and are easy to use, but that's the point. Shotguns are easy to use when your 2 inches from someone right? You barely even have to aim at that range because your in the weapons designated range. Let me propose a situation to you. Let's say your on pantheon(trials map this week), and you go to waterfall with a shotgun on the nightstalker subclass. There is a guy sniping the lane on the other side as you round the corner. You are in his designated range where it should be easiest to land a sniper shot. Oppositely for you your way outside of your range with a shotgun. So you have to use shade step to avoid getting hit you shade step into the pond and jump right up to the heavy spawn room. You manipulate line of sight and sprints along the wall then you shade step out from the wall and kill the other player. That was impressive right? You used movement to help you kill the other player. Now let's change things. Your the sniper you round the corner ADS and take a shot at the shotgunner he shade steps so you miss. You see him jump into the heavy spawn so you move right and hard-scope the small lane you can see. Then out from the wall the shotgunner catches you off guard because you weren't paying attention to radar. He shade steps out and jumps in the air. You rename calm in scope, re acquire your target, and land a beautiful quick scope. Impressive right? People see the sniper shot as lucky, but it's not it's movement skill vs gun skill and no one is better than the other it's just a matter of preference.

  • Maybe if people didn't exaggerate and say that they get headshot from 2 feet every time. Because that doesn't happen all the time, don't be an idiot and you won grt consistently headshotted. Although low-key nerf aim assist, these -blam!-ers are better at hardscoping because there gun is "sticky".

    • Personally, the only specials I think are overpowered are Party Smasher and Universal.

    • Look pal, I'm getting pissed at all of these scrub lord Titans using shotguns. Normally I would be fine with shotguns, but then people use them like primaries for the whole dang game then think like they're actually good. And the majority of theses scrub lord shotgun lets are Titans walking around with no backup plans, universal, and party crasher. They're ruining the game for everyone else and Bungie needs to need shotguns into the ground. In fact, I would be really interested to see how far down every Titans kd would go down if Bungie got rid of shotguns and universal for a week. That's y I think shot guns need a nerf

      • People are afraid to admit that snipers are powerful, yes, but no nerf needed. It's dumb people fault for challenging snipers at sniper range!! Also primarys could use a buff. Just have primarys give a little more flinch or make explosive rounds a high caliber rounds more viable. That way if you want a sniper counter, you have to find a HC rounds roll. That way there is more diversity in what roll to search for

        • Snipers are surpose to have a weakness in order to counter them in this game that weakness seems to be nonexistent it takes less than 2 seconds to get into the scope and pick someone off at any range you can even run at full pelt and the scope will stay centred not even a machine could keep the scope centre when running it's stupidly op and that's final I've been using one myself in elimination and clearly that's all people use in those type of matches.

              Yes they are and since bungie won't limit special ammo further because their philosophy ignores power as they claim they are for "special situations". We have to call for a nerf. Either they are more powerful and their ammo is limited or they are less powerful and it's not. I'm sick of this in between though it's really just snipers that are the main problem from their ease of use and are too forgiving under fire. Shotguns are purely an ammo problem though

              • When special ammo is in limitless supply, and that's all people use, you tend to notice it more than heavy. They are OP. Snipers have no flinch at all when shot at and shotguns have ridiculous power. If ammo was far more scarce then it would be fine

                • Personally i feel that primary weapons should be pushed forward, since they are "primary". Special weapons should fit niche purposes, and shouldn't be a replacement for primaries. With the way ammo spawns are, you can carry a shotgun for a good portion of the game and produce good results currently. Auto rifles need to be put forward as a strong solid primary, as the others are solid for what they are. Maybe a few archetypes need to be adjusted, but still.

                • Zombie apocalypse ammo isn't readily available. It isn't that special weapons are OP; it is that you can go an entire match only using them. Primary weapons not being your primary weapon is the complaint (mostly due to the fact they all kill so slow).
