When I first heard of them I expected a mid range rocket launcher, what we got was bouncing explosions that rarely hit what you wanted. I have one of the two exotic versions, it's trash. You only have to go to YouTube to see how bad Fighting Lion is, the idea I'd give up an exotic spot for it is a complete joke. You can track what players use, grenade launchers have to be at the bottom.
There should be some public talk about feedback and how you guys plan to work on or correct it.

Hahaha, They are horrid . They're as worthless as the Wrath of Machine - machine gun.

I went flawless with play of the game

Edited by Jebus Kreist: 9/23/2017 7:09:16 AMAs many of have said, "Bring back Machineguns". But Bungie won't, because most of what Bungie has done to the game has been so that they can sterilize any of the fun and potential imbalance in PvP. Machineguns, in this regard, were [b]amazing[/b] because they were basically super auto-rifles. Bungie has removed them and replaced them with simply bad grenade launchers as [i]the actual heavy weapons[/i]. [u]Controversial opinion ahead:[/u] [spoiler]Snipers, Fusion Rifles and Shotguns aren't heavy weapons... that doesn't mean "Buff Them", that means fix the loadouts. Linear Fusion Rifles and "Merciless" actually have an argument to be heavy weapons.[/spoiler] [u]Opinion on Bungie's changes to Destiny 2:[/u] [spoiler]I despise everything Bungie has done to Destiny's core mechanics that turned Destiny 2 into this sterilized attempt to make a competitive PvP title. Virtually none of it has any basis to have been done, especially to a game of this "genre".[/spoiler]

I wish we could have our light machines guns back ...
-
Yeah they need to go back on the shelf I don't think anyone uses them

Edited by I Bubie I: 9/26/2017 8:59:35 AMI enjoy my orthrus (omolon grenade launcher). Everyone got spoiled by the monopoly that rocket launchers had in D1, myself included. Idk what y'all expected with grenade launchers, in the brief moments of gameplay we saw how grenade launchers would behave. I like them but I guess I'm beside myself.

-blam!-ing Grenade Launchers.... I hate them all. Got [b][i]FIGHTING LION[/i][/b] last night from an Exotic Engram, 286 Power, by far my highest power Energy Weapon. WTF am I supposed to do with this, I sure as hell cant use it since all Grenade Launchers are shit, and I can't infuse it into anything for the same reason, using a piece of shit to make another piece of shit better just gets you more shit.

Lemonade Launcher is auto dismantle!
-
Imo the only viable grenade launcher is shock and thunder. But that's only because it has a blinding effect that's actually worth something in pve. Other than that from my experience they are just over all weaker rocket launchers with significantly less potential damage (maximum damage on one target with full reserve ammo), more awkward ballistic patterns, and a smaller blast radius. I think a good buff would to be increased damage on direct impact, slightly increased damage or increase reserve ammo so they end with about the same amount of damage as a rocket launcher after expanding all of the reserve ammo.
-
With non sticky launcher I don't even aim at target I aim and ground predict the ricochet and bounce shots at them works better for me. They should actually have a bonus for extra damage on bounce shot or after bouncing 1 time they get grenades and horseshoes perk
-
If you are not using a trigger release detonation grenade launcher you are doing it wrong.
-
Thanks for reminding me to disassemble the Fighting Lion as soon as I'm on. Absolute POS.
-
Worst weapon type of them all
-
Yes. I'm only playing PvE so don't know what they're like in PvP, but I don't care for them and every one has been sharded so far.
-
Agreed.
-
They are pure garbage and I seem to have been stuck with them while leveling up. However I did get one that isn't too terrible called the wicked sister. Other than that 1, pure garbage.
-
I hit a guy dead on in crucible with one and guess what? He didn't die :-D had to hit him with a second one
-
They suck if you use them like you think you should use them. They should be used like mid range shotguns. You HAVE to make direct contact with your shots. If you do that they are deadly. And yes the fighting lion is garbage, but its exotic feature is that you can put it in your energy slot instead of your heavy.
-
Bump major
-
there are lack of rocket launchers now. i literally only have one rocket launcher the wardcliff coil i like the name dubious volley better by the way but seriously greande launchers do suck and there are not many places to get a rocket launcher.
-
Edited by badcompany_647: 9/23/2017 11:59:41 PMThey are for the most part pretty useless
-
Agree but prospector is actually good. The other exotic grenade launcher is looking nice, but that's it
-
Grenade launchers should be attached to some primaries in an over-under way. You should get 3 ammo and/or one large grenade every time your hand grenade recharges.
-
Totally agree. These new weapons are junk. I don't care about the submachine gun and I don't care about grenade launchers. You are wasting your breath screaming for buffs. These guns are all weak by design to keep the competitive zombie Trials crowd happy. Ironically, it doesn't work. They are ALWAYS whining about something. They are already having kittens over the perceived over powering of Mida Multi-Tool. It's hilarious. LMAO.
-
Lose the grenade launchers and bring back LMG's. Problem solved
-
Yeah. I now dismantle them immediately ( unless of course they give me a higher power rating, however I definitely don't bother equipping them ) . I really, really miss Machine Guns.
