[quote]Dear Bungie,
I love this game. You have shone a light on my life during a dark and difficult time for me. I'm a year 3 player and have been playing nonstop since I got the game this past summer. That being said, I'd like to offer my two cents on the latest patch:
Thank you for...
- Acknowledging and looking into a skorris fix (PvE only/keep it out of elimination gametypes?)
- Buffing flux grenades (such stick, much wow)
- Nerfing high rof pulses
- Nerfing jug (I main striker on my Titan and still totally agree here)
- Shinobu's nerf (I main blade on my Hunter and am fine with this)
- High caliber rounds nerf
- Most of the shotgun nerfs/buff
- Increased in air accuracy with autos, pulses, and scouts (fun)
- Hand cannon accuracy buff (Ohhh yeah)
Middle of the road...
- Stormcaller melee nerf: I could go either way here. Their grenades are subpar so I felt that was balanced out by having a stronger melee. Plus, Gunslingers have throwing knives and Nightstalkers have smoke which both have at least as much range as amplitude was pre 2.5.0.2.
- Special ammo economy: I agree with the guy who said you should respawn with less ammo rather than a total loss as well as having it fill up your gun when picking it up so you don't have to both pick it up and reload every time. I'm spending way too much time reloading already.
Things I don't agree with...
- Nerfing hungering blade (imo supers are meant to be countered by other supers. Every single other super can easily shut down blade. The justification given in the stream was disappointing and based on you trying to primary/special a blade. And the exact same situation happens when a titan uses Cauterize or Fire Keeper. I'd prefer neither be nerfed, but I would prefer the cauterize nerf stays if the hungering blade nerf stays. But what about PvE? That should stay unchanged. The same could be said for almost every one of these nerfs for PvE.)
- Truth magazine nerf (What's the point of it being exotic? A little bit better tracking? That's it now? What's the point of matching my boots to have increased rocket launcher ammo? I always make sure to do that so I can get 3 rockets. You just crapped on my carefully crafted build. I've never heard anyone complain about Truth. It was fine.
- Quick draw and Ophidian nerf (Just why? Who had a problem with these? They were fun. I enjoyed them both, but I also sometimes used other nodes/exotics. They were far from OP. You're taking so much of the fun out of the game for the sake of so called "balance." What about enjoyment? That's the draw of this game. It's fun. I mean, why not just remove supers from the game? Then it will be incredibly balanced. The problem is it won't be any fun.)
- Blink nerf (Again, who asked for this? This along with the ones listed above just seem to have come out of left field.)
- Indiscriminately nerfing rangefinder (So proud spires with rangefinder just got nerfed? Seems silly. I really only think matadors and party crashers needed this one.)
Anywho, I know it's only day 1 so I may have jumped to some conclusions, but I've already played a couple hours and left immensely frustrated. I do want to reiterate though, that I appreciate the love and hard work you guys have put into this game and this patch. There are some big steps forward, but please, please bungie, roll some of these back.
Much love,
A hopeful guardian[/quote]
I like the optimism
