Now, I personally think that special ammo changes were unnecessary and not what we (the community) asked for. Firstly, in year 1, primaries were strong but so were specials. Still, there were no special ammo problems because primaries were strong enough. For this patch, we asked for stronger primaries - which is what you gave, Bungie, so fair enough. However, we did not ask for special weapons to be nerfed - and that is not what you said was the game plan. You said you wanted to bring primaries up to be able to compete with special weapons. Now, I am not a great player. Not by any means. I am a 1.0kd player who enjoys using weapons that are fun but not necessarily the best. I loved sniping. I loved using Plan C and other fusions like 77 Wizard. I also loved playing an aggressive playstyle using a shotgun (but not always matador). I used fun shotguns like the Chaperone and Winter's End. Here's what's wrong. You said that the aim of the game now is to "search for special ammo on the map" in order to use it in the match. You said we needed to rely on our primary weapon skill to fight for special ammo. As I said, I am not a great player and lets be honest, there are hundred of thousands of new players coming to Destiny and they have absolutely no chance when it comes to primary gun skill against top tier and middle tier players. I am not good enough to play and fight for special just so I can use it until I die again. We need more special ammo in the game. You're forcing us into a primary meta and what I want in particular is to have the ability to choose whether I use my primary or special weapon for certain engagements. Here is what special ammo means to Destiny... Special ammo brings character to the game. Think of games like Star Wars Battlefront where you only have one weapon plus abilities. It's boring because you only have one range of engagements to choose from. Special ammo creates so many different playstyles. At the moment, we have just four main playstyles. They are: the hand cannon playstyle (which is short to medium range play), the pulse rifle playstyle (all round range playstyle with limited ability in the air), the auto rifle playstyle (short to medium range with limited air accuracy) and the scout rifle playstyle (long range play with limited in air ability). So, there are just 4 main playstyles. Lets see what special ammo can add to this: The aggressive airbourne playstyle (shotgun or sidearm rushing with juggernauts and abilities. This style would be balanced now with the nerfs to juggy and shotguns), the passive intelligent playstyle (sniping in long sniping lanes (although there aren't many in destiny)), the aggressive sniping playstyle (snipers with low zoom (please unnerve that to create this playstyle) where you use twilight garrison and ranged melees like smoke to kill targets), the medium range but composed playstyle (fusion rifles are used as passive guns to counter short range gun play although very few fusions in the game have good range). See this Bungie?... This is character. This is being able to play whichever playstyle you want. Please, give us special ammo after death back. Primaries are strong enough now to counter unintelligent moves and it can open up so many different ways to play. thanks for reading Bungie and I hope you see the future from my eyes. Edit: well since I'm on the trending page I suppose I need to make an edit. Thanks for the comments and remember to bump if you agree. The more bumps, the more chance that bungie will see it. I also want to mention something that I forgot to add the the post before. Some people or bungie will say: well if you want to snipe, use Nlb or Icebreaker. If you want special, use a sidearm. However, this just adds to the lack of options when it comes to weapons. The current meta is designed so that a players only special weapon options are sidearms or those two snipers which is NOT varied enough. we need more options!
