Let's start of with specials:
Shotguns are mostly complete shit and have absolutely no diversity because some dumbass at bungie though that it was a good idea to give everyone a perfect conspiracy theory
What's next umm oh yeah snipers, not even snipers anymore just 1000 yard stare, absolutely no diversity, 1000 yard stare is the only sniper with its damage to rate of fire ratio in the TTK, and again some doughbag thought it was a good idea to just give a real good roll just out.
Fusion rifles? Yeah their complete shit accept for a few like plan c
Sidearms are actually the only balances weapon type in the game in my opinion
Let's move on to primarys
Let's see what's viable...
-last word
-hawksaw and every other pulse rifle in that category
-Mida
That's it.... That's -blam!-ing it....
From what I can see pulse rifles didn't get touched, auto rifles got a 0.7 percent buff (-___- ok bungie were autistic and didn't see what u did there)which means they are unchanged
Hand cannons just got buffed A little
and scout rifles are mediocre as always
[b][i]lets check the super department[/i][/b]
Gunslinger, lasts only 13 second -__-, blade dancer is glitched doesn't connect the swipes and speaking of glitches blink strike doesn't register either, shadow shot for some retarded reason doesn't tether right away is its a direct hit and last but not least storm callers last long enough to kill the same guy twice in one super, go ahead funny guy in the replies tell me it's balanced
[spoiler]LAG[/spoiler]
Id rather play in year one meta where I could use my her benevolence
Here's a little idea of mine:

1 ReplyOk, you had your vent. Now, realize it does nothing. Bungie ain't gonna read this. So please save yourself future frustration and find a new game to be competitive in, because destiny is a poor choice in that category.

1 ReplyI was going to start the same thread. Agreed that this meta is crap. There is no more primary weapon gun play because everyone is sniping. The nerf to pulse rifles, shotguns, and fusion rifles led to this. I'm fed up of getting sniped all the time from close range. Seriously bungie needs to stop nerfing everything and realize the only way to fix this game is through buffs and lowering the amount of special ammo. At this point, all primary weapons are fine. Maybe auto rifles need a slight buff (to compete against TLW) but that's it. Snipers need more flinch when being shot at and the buff to aim assist from the shortgaze scope needs to be reduced.
-
Yeah I used the Monte Carlo and really enjoyed it. Also the Zhalo Supercell is coming up a bit in Crucible. I see a bunch of people using the Chaperone. More rocket launchers and scout rifles like the legendary treads upon stars. The meta is looking up in my opinion.

8 RepliesAre you kidding me? Have you not used Monte Carlo, hard light, Zhalo, or hawkmoon?

Maybe the time spent whining and writing this post,could have been used to say practice more? Remember,guns don't kill guardians,guardians kill guardians.

I disagree with you on primaries. I think they are as close to balanced as they've ever been. The Last Word however is seeing a resurgence because they can now do so unimpeded by shotgun users. And there in lies the major balancing issue currently. The nerf to shotguns went too far, and you are seeing dominance now by snipers rifles because it's the only secondary that is truly worth using. They should have never nerfed fusion rifles in the first place, they were perfect in year 1. Last patch shotguns were finally perfect as well. The major problem that they needed to address wasn't nerfing individual weapon classes, but by increasing the length that secondary ammo spawns in PvP. Not sure why they couldn't see that, but until they do, welcome to the era of sniper rifles.

2 RepliesTbh to fix this problem they need to stop nerfing shotguns/snipers and instead buff fusion rifles and sidearms to make them just as lethal.
-
I understand it. But I feel like re-instating the year one meta, would be good. Keeping the vex out of that of course, you can't have another 2 shot 60 clip fusion running around at today's levels.
-
2 RepliesWhat do you mean last word? I haven't seen that him besides on a couple of trials matches. Pulse rifles reign supreme but at least more or less a wider variety of weapons in that class. And there's some other viable options in the other weapon classes. In the last meta of weapons you only ever saw people using the thorn(a weapon so disgusting I hope it never returns to the top tier weapons) and tlw & hawkmoon which was op but you needed to be bit more skilled using that than the thorn. And a very few other weapons that stood out but the exotic hand cannons put everything else to shame. Imo this meta of weapons has been the best ever since day one.

This. SO MUCH THIS

I don't know what your talking about I slay with hard light I use steel piercer snipe and hardly get heavy unless I absolutely have to cuz my teams losing lol other then that I can use the hunter class just fine sure you have to know how to use the super effectively bc of how it is but I have no complaints and or problems just another way to tell who's got the skills and who's paying the bills

2 RepliesPrimaries are the most balanced they have ever been, aside from the outlier TLW. Secondaries are a department of CONSTANT change, people use what is the best. Heavies are pretty balanced. Supers on Balanced. I don't really see how this is a bad Meta. There is no "One Gun to Win Them All" type meta anymore. This is probably my favorite Meta to this date. I used Snipers before this Meta and with what little skill I acquired, I can counter most of the Shotgun -> 1000 Yard Stare newbies. But, it is understandable why the 1000 Yard Stare is the only sniper used, it is its specific type. Since day 1, that has been the Go2 sniper type and 1000 Yard is one of the very few of that type in the Meta.

3 RepliesBungie really needs to make a PvP-only forum. This whining sh-t is getting old, PvE players just want to play the damn game without fear of constant PvP nerfs.
