Dude...no one really cares about Silver Dust.
The real question is:
Why does it take so long to patch the weapons? Stop acting like sloths or like everthing is fine right now. No other gaming company needs 6+ months to balance their weapon meta when there are things that need to fixed asap.
- I'm a Shotgunner and I hate Shotguns right now. Kill the max range archetype once and for all or [b]reduce OHK range/widen the spread[/b] to make them less viable at Range.
- [b]Give us less ammo with every Special Ammo crate.[/b] There is more than enough to run around with a Special as a Primary. That shouldn't be possible by any means.
- Grasp/Dragon/Waltz are too effective at any range. Reduce the range or give them more recoil to [b]make them less effective at long ranges.[/b] The fastest archetype of every gun type should be most effective at short ranges, mid at mid, and slow at long. Simple.
- [b]Give Snipers their low range scopes back.[/b] The AA and Flinch nerfs were more than enough to put an end to the Sniper meta and they were absolutely necessary. But most maps are too small.
- [b]Buff the low RoF Autorifles[/b] and give them more range and stablity. All of them. They're the worst weapon archetype for over a year now and they need your love for gods sake.
- Make the slow RoF Pulse Rifles like Lyudmila a consistent 2burst with 1-2 bodyshots instead of HS only or give them less recoil. [b]Make them effective at long ranges.[/b]
- Remove bloom entirely but reduce the range on Handcannons. You should hit where you're aiming at. The recoil should be the thing you need to control. If you can control it, you should hit, even across map dealing only 1dmg because of the dropoff. [b]Make primaries consistent![/b]
- [b]Remove SBMM completely[/b] from normal crucible OR at least put regional matchmaking in the pot. I don't want to play against people from the dark side of the moon without Dedicated Servers. SBMM doesn't help anyone but the lowest tier people that don't play Crucible that much anyway.
- [b]Remove or fix that goddamned Damage Referee/Lag Compensator. [/b]Fix the Netcode the way it should be: The lagger should be the one with the disadvantage not hitting anything...not the other way around.
And when all of that is a thing, we will see what problem occurs next and [b]you try to fix it asap again. [/b]Simple concept that'll help your game, not that hard to understand.
I demand weapon balance patches every month to keep this game healthy. Nothing else is that important...not silver dust, not SRL, not creating more microtransaction stuff. If your customers know you're working on perfecting the game instead of focusing on milking the gullible people, there would be way less player migration which would result in more money anyway. It would also be a much better starting point for Destiny 2.
I appreciate your hard work...but please, work on those things that are important for the game and the community. Thanks!
TL;DR (thanks to the fellow Jolly Pizzaman):
weapons(all) = Balance();
DO IT! Or at least try without long vacations!
EDIT: Some people seem to miss my point entirely just because they see that I want their precious crutches "nerfed". Sorry, but you cannot just buff things all the way up, that doesn't work. You cannot make every weapon perfect for any kind of range or situation. Some things are not effective enough, some things are too effective. They have to be addressed. But NOT with extreme force. I want slight changes every month to see if they're good or not instead of harsh ones that occur once half a year.

I want buffs too you salty biach.
-
I agree with all of your balance suggestions but people have been complaining about silver dust.
-
But I think WAY more people are interested in a balanced PvP experience since day1...it just baffles me that this "problem" with silver dust even gets attention when all of them should be working on far more important things.
-
Well, most are working on more important things. Srl and destiny 2.
-
No one needs srl. It'll be just another cash grab, that's all. All this effort should be put in solutions gor all the problems/flaws.
-
When srl come out because I what some gear they give with srl
-
-
Don't speak for everyone, it only makes you appear ignorant. Srl was one of the most asked for events [b]since launch.[/b] Not only that, but when it was active, it couldn't have been praised much more. So to say no one wants it is not only ignorant but incredibly naive.

Edited by TeddyBundy: 11/10/2016 4:43:12 PMI was there. Some idiots screamed for sparrow racing on patrol. SRL was nothing like that. It was fun...for about half an hour for 99% of the community. The rest of the time is was a grind for gear, not because of fun. The rest was a cashgrab for those idiots to throw money at the screen. The same idiots begged for more masks to buy with silver. Now that everyone already is 400, there won't be any reason for most players to play it at all. Stop acting like such completely unimportant things are more important than a balanced Crucible. They're not. THAT is what people want since day1...not some stupid sparrow minigame.

[quote]Stop acting like such completely unimportant things are more important than a balanced Crucible.[/quote] I didn't say that, you're simply pulling things out of nowhere. Besides, you're still being ignorant of other people's opinions.
-
They should focus on removing every problem, THEN they can put in shit like SRL all day everyday.
-
You've just proven [b]again[/b] that you are ignorant. [quote]remove every problem[/quote] Please direct me to where anything can be flawless because it seems you're in Heaven.
-
That's why they should focus on removing problem as hard as they can. About that "ignorant" thing: Do you see me caring about that? No, so you don't need to regurgitate this word, thanks. :)

But but silver dust lives matter! Silver dust was THE experiment for roi Would people pay $$ to decorate and lamely I might add their gear We don't care about silver dust but bungo does And Bungo don't care about what we want So we get silver dust changes
-
True...sadly.
-
I agree with everything you posted... People so salty in the comments Jesus Christ
-
Thanks!
-
"I don't wanna play with anyone from the dark side of the moon" You lucky chap. All the German shitheads I get matched with are currently sat on the Voyager space Explorer.
-
Or you could just git gud
-
I'm already better than you or 95% of the community, thanks.
-
Wow, ego much? That, right there, is why no one should listen to you, regardless of how well thought out your criticism is. We already have a blow hard in the White House, none of us need it in what is supposed to be an escape from our day to day.
-
Dumb much? He shittalked and got a response, nothing else. Cut the crap.
-
git more gudder then
-
Get out.
