I laughed my ass off last night.
Fired up Destiny on my PS4, downloaded the update, and went out into the small, confined "wilds" of Destiny.
I had my trusty 365 Vision of Confluence (now nerfed down to 165 or something like that), and the Field Scout Perk... why even bother to keep this Perk on the weapon, Bungie? I mean really, if it doesn't increase the magazine size, what's the goddamn point? And the Perfect balance Perk!? You dropped down its benefit by almost [b]HALF[/b] of what it was.
So a "perfectly balanced" weapon could still have stability issues? Do you morons even have a -blam!-ing clue what you're doing? (obviously not...)
Then I tried Pulse Rifles, Sniper Rifles (Ice Breaker and the Black Hammer are -blam!-ing [b]SHADOWS[/b] of the weapons that they were two days ago...), Gjallarhorn (RiP), and the list goes on. When firing from the hip, The Last Word was still somewhat useful in PvE. Run up on some enemies, unload the clip, profit. After 2.0? -blam!-ing [b]DREGS[/b] are an issue when using TLW.
This new weapon imbalance is so bad, I really did laugh. It is such a waste of time that it brought real humor to think that you guys at Acti$hit/Bungle still think that this game is quality or even a serious attempt at a competitive shooter.
Seriously, Bungle. Are the weapons you've designed and made for TTK [b]that horrible[/b] that you have to destroy everything fun left in Destiny in order to make them seem relevant!? They must be that bad because you've had to eviscerate every -blam!-ing weapon in the game to prepare for the new stuff to drop on people...
If nothing else, you've proven one thing very, very well. That Bungie.new is merely a flaccid shadow of the talented developers that made Halo with Old Bungie. You've very well proven that the developer that made Halo has died a gruesome death, and only a shallow shell of that once-great developer remains.
I laughed as I removed Destiny from my disc drive, and chuckled as I placed that same disc underneath my mug of coffee.
Because with Weapon Imbalance 2.0, that's all destiny is good for now. Use as a colorful coaster.
If you get [b]any[/b] good reviews over this update, it will be because you [b]paid[/b] for those kind words. No one in their right mind would give Weapon Imbalance 2.0 a "thumbs-up" unless they're on your payroll.
Vampire, out.

Honestly, the Thorn and GJ nerf were needed
-
Why was the G-horn nerf needed? Exotics are supposed to be the pinnacle of Golden Age human technology. G-horn was the only weapon that actually felt... exotic. Aside from the different emblem color, what's the difference between Y1 exotics and Legendary weapons? Nothing.
-
True. Maybe I should've said "all exotic rockets and everything but the exotic hand cannons need a buff"
-
not happy yet but hawkmoon got a special sound for those boosted rounds .... I like that one thing and so far that's it
-
Preach bro I haven't even tried it yet but after reading the patch notes and the forums I can see the damage is done get ready for deej and the weekly fluffdate to try and do a little damage control
-
I played it at my friends. It was enough for me to not even bother installing the update lol. Why bother? Maybe next year I'll snag a copy of year 2 but I'm not going through bungies bullshit all year again. How long do you think it is going to take for weapon tuning 3.0? Another six months? Lol

[quote]I laughed as I removed Destiny from my disc drive, and chuckled as I placed that same disc underneath my mug of coffee. [/quote] That is pure awesome!
-
The Destiny disc is now where it belongs.
-
You look cute today. DLC isn't even out yet and still calling it overpriced. The changes made were better for the game. I find crucible to be more fun than ever. I guess now that it takes skill to use weapons people are getting salty. I'm that I will personally love the DLC and I'm not on anyone's payroll. No one will miss you or anyone else that leaves. Casuals.
-
OK. So if you'll do me a favor; please quote from my written text where I mentioned [i]anything[/i] about PvP? I don't do PvP, I'm a purely PvE player. Facts are facts, 2.0 eviscerated all Y1 weapons for PvE use.
-
They didn't obliterate any of my weapons. I guess that's cause I don't use VoG weapons much. When I used VoC I never even used field scout. I don't really mind the blanket nerf that vanilla perks received.
-
So you don't mind the nerf because it doesn't effect weapons you use? Lol
-
Because I knew how to let go of old weapons...lol
-
But that's you. Why should [i]everyone[/i] be forced to play the same way? In a game such as this especially. We are all drones seeking the next best thing. Why can't we just use what we like? Oh I know. Dlc . Dlc needs to be sold every four months for bungie and activision to continue to make "content" lmao
-
No ones forcing you to do anything. The loss of field scout and some stability or range on certain weapons doesn't make them worthless. Stop being salty. All these weapons become useless in a week anyway.
-
They arent? It's not just those two perks. It's every single pre house of wolves perk that's been " balanced ". That certainly seems like trying to force players to move on. All the while leaving them behind in year 1 attack values. (That also got nerfed)
-
No shit dude. That doesn't mean all vanilla weapons are trash. Learn how to use them.

Editado por Alpha Revere: 9/9/2015 8:40:16 PMI [b]JUST[/b] got a Hard Light for the first time as a Nightfall drop Friday. I was all excited when I started using it in PvP and PvE because I was [i]killing[/i] with it in [b]both[/b]. Now 2.0 drops and I find out that not only did it get nerfed to 170, that it [b]WON'T [/b]be ascendable to year 2! That was the AR I was freaking ecstatic about getting. Now it's just gonna be another exotic shard when I get an [b]uncommon[/b] AR that'll have better stats because BUNGIE wants us to play Destiny [b]their[/b]way. Thanks BUNGIE for [b]ruining[/b] my excitement!
-
All year one weapons were normalized to 170? We already knew all TTK weapons would outpower current gear.
-
I did learn how to use them
-
Then you shouldn't have a problem? The nerfs barely touched those weapons.
-
Also how is the balancing bad? TLW is still a good weapon in pvp, it was never good in pve :(...
-
Or they can get good reviews from people who loved the expansion, like I hopefully do...
