Well.... You did. There is now no reason to use a shotgun. The special ammo loss on death has ruined so many guns you made for this game. This is my least favorite patch ever, I don't have the items I need to protect myself now in the crucible.

Been working fine for me

2 RepliesThey didn't. Snipers and Fusions have it no better. You just need a lot of skill now. My Ether Nova is useless now.

They didn't nerf shotguns to the ground. They basically said stop using special period. Unless it's sidearms.
-
No no no what they did was take shotguns and replace them with sidearms

1 ReplyI was a shotgunner, I wasn't that guy who never used my primary though. I have way more primary kills than special kills, but for the most part my special was a shotgun and I did have matches where I had more shotgun kills than primary kills. So, on to the patch. Honestly it's not as bad as I thought it was going to be, and I'm strictly talking about the 2 major nerfs, shotguns and pulse rifles. Now, I will say I don't care for the special ammo changes, I think all that did was drive the majority of players to sidearms or Invective/Icebreaker. There will still be some out there that continue to use their legendary snipers/shotties/fusions. What you are going to see in trials though is normal loadouts in round 1, last word sniper, eyasluna or palindrome/shotgun/sniper whatever it may be. It's round 2 where you are going to see a metric -blam!-ing ton of No Land's and sidearms. I'm interested to watch some twitch streams to see what people do, because I sucked at trials before this patch, after, no way I'm playing that mode.

2 RepliesYou kidding? This patch is the reason I'm finally going to START using shotguns.

9 RepliesParty Crasher and Matador are still in the top 10 most used secondary guns - your stance is invalid

1 Reply[quote]There is no reason to use a shotgun[/quote] > Still uses a shotgun > Finds it easier to use a shotgun now that not everyone has a shotgun out with ammo and thus I can get closer without needing to trade But whatever, as long as you get your days of no other special having any point, you'll be happy.
-
So nerf the sidearms now right? Because I've counted many nerf posts.

2 RepliesI almost never use shotguns, I hates people who mained shotgun because it takes out the fun. But I never wanted bungie to kill them. They should have nerfed the ammo gain from crates or something that like that...

2 RepliesEdited by TheGreatBagel: 2/16/2017 9:00:26 AMThis promise reminds me of one Bungie promised earlier too. I think it went along the lines of "Sunsinger isn't op, but we're gonna watch the firebolts and we won't nerf them". Well 3 months later this happened "Firebolts are too op so we are nerfing them, flame shield is getting a nerf, and Viking funeral is getting nerfed." Isn't the first time they have doubled back to appease the winers and streamers.

1 ReplyEdited by Cry: 2/16/2017 5:28:34 PMThey actually literally contradicted it...since now shotguns are pretty much forced to stay on the ground.

Lmao it's funny how they said that and -blam!-ing chopped it to pieces
-
They literally nerfed shotguns to the ground. Your in air accuracy was reduced. Lol

4 RepliesEdited by DuplexGorilla53: 2/16/2017 4:33:42 PMI remember that long post by Cosmo as well telling us how hard they were working on the balance patch then they dropped this flop and called it a day. They are just sad. Oh my backup by the way has always been shotgun since I walked in to the crucible but I just switched over to sidearm like bungie wants us to do.

3 RepliesI tried universal remote, from 2 meters without aim did 60 damage... dismantled

[quote]we don't wanna nerf shotguns to the ground [/quote] So they just nerfed shotguns, snipers, and fusions to the ground instead.

Edited by Kone19ps: 2/16/2017 9:08:04 PMThere is room to buff them now that they are actually power weapons. They overcompensated trying to mediate shotguns. I don't blame them with how much the community hated shotguns. But now there is inherent risk so constant b-lining shotguns will be replaced with more thoughtful play.
