You can use your primary in PVP you know...

I just keep seeing players using shotguns and snipers exclusively and I wonder if they even know that they can use their primary weapons. I mean what was the point of nerfing special ammo drops if people run around like jumping jacks or slid around like some high guy trying to get into a hot girls dms, shotgunning anything that moves? I hate running around a corner just to have my head blown off by three snipers on the other side of the map, it's just not fun. Aside from this, the lag, the try-hards and sweaties, the joining late in matches, the teammates leaving, and nobody playing the object, this Iron Banner has been great so far! (I say as I grit my teeth and smile) In all seriousness though, I don't even now why I'm still play Iron Banner. It's just become a painful chore now, instead of fun. I would like to know your opinions. Edit #1 A misconception that a lot of people seem to have about me, is that I'm not able to admit that people are better than me at PVP. That's not true. I never claimed to the best at PVP, I know there are so many other people who can play so much better than me, who have a lot of skill. I consider myself to be ok. The problem that I have with PVP is that it's always the same. The cool thing about PVP in any game is that the players write the outcome of the match, theoretically making all matches different. That's why I love Dice's Battlefield games, because those matches will never be the same, there is so much variety and play styles. That doesn't happen with Destiny's PVP. Everyone plays with the same weapons and same play styles, there's no variety causing each match to be the exact same. How is that fun, if you go into a match knowing it's not going to be any different from the last? Bungie has given us the weapons and armors to make Destiny's PVP spontaneous, but it's the players that choose not to use them, instead the players are interested in getting the win at all costs no matter how they have to play. And that's why we call people try-hards or sweaties, because they're not will to branch out and try something new to make PVP fun again.

  • I love my Hakon's Hatchet. It is no Mida or tlw but it kills fast. It is on my Titan.

  • These posts are cancer. You don't want people to use primaries. You're just salty about getting killed None of you actually care about people using their primaries. All of you are just whiners that complain about anything that kills you. Then you make exuses for your own inepitude. It's sickening really [b]Example[/b]: I just read a post saying to "Unnerf Doctrine of Passing" Now if the community really wanted more primary play and less specials, then one can assume that such a post would have alot of support right? Wrong. It was downvoted to 0 and heavily flamed What about TLW? It's shredds shotgunners so surely no one wants that nerfed! Wrong MIDA murdered snipers. Grasp gives those hardscopers the blues. Surely no one wants to... WRONG! The intrinsic HCRs were [b]removed[/b] from MIDA and Grasp is next on the chopping block. TL:DR : None of you hypocrites care about the whole "Use your primary!" Movement. You use words like "crutch" and "sweaty" to dodge accountability for your own deaths. You hate everything that kills you. Period. Get over yourselves

    • I do use my primary, it's called no land beyond. Do you know why special ammo was nerfed? [spoiler] The majority of players were relying on special weapons.[/spoiler] Do you know why players relied on special? [spoiler]Primary ttk was brought up dramatically through various nerfs[/spoiler] So...[spoiler] what do you think needs to happen for primaries to be used more again? [/spoiler]

      • Most people wouldn't be able to go positive if they used a primary, so they just figure they'll avoid it at all costs. This is the main reason I stopped playing sweats against randoms who challenge, they lose every gunfight they get into and do nothing but run around with their shotguns out.

      • 3 headshots with a sniper = 300 points. 3 team shots with primaries = 450 points. People don't understand this.

        • To bad people are using universal and nlb as primaries which actually gives them two secondaries. Played a guy yesterday for 4 games and he never once got a kill with anything other than a shotgun. Had 22 every game. Never left zone b, never went for special ammo. Game is kinda broke right now. You get tired of it and you join them using universal and then they message you saying your a cheat because your using the same as them. Lol

        • Primary weapons are in a bad spot right now. There are a few exceptions. TLW and a few god-roll legendaries are usable, but that's about it. I'll stick with hardscoping and shotgunning until Bungie fixes primary weapons.

                    • I'd love to use it, but they can't scratch snipers or make them flinch... So back to using plan c as a primary.

                    • I don't play crucible, but in regards to people not playing the way you want them to play, find ways to counter them rather than insisting they play the way you want them to play.
