Hello, everyone.
I have noticed a few peculiarities in the new competitive multiplayer trailer that I would like to discuss, more particularly the Time-To-Kill and the pace of the game.
In the new trailer the game looks much more fast-paced and fun than in the beta. More Supers, weapons doing more damage, possibly one-shot kill shoulder charges and one-shot sniper kills. For me, if this were in the game I would be pleased as I am a fan of fast-paced gameplay. Otherwise, I feel that we are being lied to and that definitely rubs me the wrong way. I know Bungie and Activision are not beyond lying to us, but still, this seems like false advertising to me. Anyways, let me know your thoughts.
EDIT: If Bungie is taking our feedback and changing the gameplay to be more fast-paced that is a good thing IMO, but I don't think this is the case here.
EDIT 2: Here's an idea, if this fast-paced gameplay isn't in the base crucible gamemodes, perhaps Bungie can provide a gamemode that has it.

I liked the way the beta was, but I would actually prefer it to be how the trailer displays the Crucible. The only problem is knowing whether or not the trailer is a montage of carefully set up plays, cinematic play, another old build, or how PvP will actually be. There are one or two parts that have someone killing someone with a time to kill relatively close to what we have now using a primary and without team shooting. It is definitely closer to PvP now and miles away from what we played in the beta. Looks good, but it could just be marketing. Either way I am still excited for the game.
