Bungie has stated they want people to play how they see fit, your ideas are limiting that which is why I'm completely against them.

Tell me exactly what you think I'm suggesting.

Incentives to use certain weapons with certain classes through bonuses that each class would get for different weapons. If someone wants to play with a shotgun as a hunter, don't you think they will feel bad knowing they are going to have an objectively worse weapon due to the lack of bonuses. Also your point on snipers and hand cannons is a bit off, there is no secondary slot, there is a special slot, which is designed for each weapon to have a special situation. Sniper long range, fusion rifle mid range, and shotgun close range, the hand cannon does have a very specific role to be put in the special weapon slot. Fun fact: the hand cannon was a special and sniper was a heavy but they were moved accordingly, my source for this is one of the podcasts.

Edited by DAndre982: 8/25/2014 5:17:28 PMThe shotgun wouldn't be any worse, by definition. For Warlocks and Hunters, it'd be the same. But for Titans, there might be some extra reason to use it, like most their armor might give bonuses to shotguns, or something. Actually, the hand cannon being a special and the sniper being a heavy (I guess again) one one of the methods for my suggestion. Thanks, you made me notice a typo in the TLDR.

[quote]Actually, the hand cannon being a special and the sniper being a heavy (I guess again) one one of the methods for my suggestion.[/quote] Which is why I countered with bungie's reason for changing it. I prefer the idea that you can play as you want to play, (i.e. your class won't limit your ability with certain weapons) so that a person can play with as any class with any weapon so they won't have a problem.
