Please stop over nerfing

There's been a large call for nerfs for special ammo in recent times but please for the love of everything don't get rid of special ammo or move it back into ammo boxes. That was by far the worst system ever in Destiny 1 and Destiny 2 year 1. Right now the special ammo economy is just fine. You don't get excessive amounts of ammo if you killed someone who had excessive amounts of ammo you get 2 shots at most. I propose an undo of all the nerfs sense Destiny 2 forsaken. At that point in time if I remember correctly everyone used just about every special weapon To you Destiny community. Stop listening to the top YouTubers and Streamers. This game is fun when it's chaotic and silly and powerful and you all know that. You need to stop your cycle of asking for nerfs on everything. Edit Y'all clearly don't remember Destiny 1 Y3 and Destiny 2 year 1 and how -blam!- the game was when special weapons were all but removed from Crucible. It shows very brightly on your faces. Believe me when I say it nearly killed the game. Not everyone wants top level eSports primary only game. It's not enjoyable Edit 2 As said by ChibiNinja [quote]. All special ammo crates did was snowball matches harder.[/quote]

  • All special ammo crates did was snowball matches harder. All it took was people camping those boxes. It was a stupid -blam!- system and it made D1 end off in the WORST and most BORING sandbox it's ever been in

    • I'm sitting here missing the days of D1 where everyone had Special Weapons with 25+ rounds in reserve at the start of a match.

        Completely agree there nothing wrong with special ammo. If anything bungie need to change the name of special ammo and call it secondary ammo because that what it is your secondary weapon. If people want to use them as a primary then let them.

      • special needs to be special the fact that you can win a game without ever getting a primary kill is insane. it needs to only drop on primary kills

        • Nerfing = Equals more grind = More money in Bungies pocket! I wonder when Ever-Worse will offer "Time Savers?"

        • It’s a typical problem. Even in other games if an item is op and gets nerfed the tendency is to over do it and render the item useless.

        • No idea what op is talking about, Y3 D1 was the best pvp era by far. Primary based gameplay with occasional moments of special use it how the game should be. Special weapons should be used at special instances. Not spammed more then primaries are. Pvp today is shotgun or fusion spam. That's it. That's a problem.

          All they need to do is stop allowing players to gain special ammo from special weapon kills unless you are empty completely. Special ammo regen needs to come from primary or heavy weapon kills This way players can slot their scavenger mods and ammo mods without being punished. The kills definitely need to come from their OWN kills and not assists. This way Bungie can stop neutering ammo and special weapons collectively and we don’t have to go back to that stupid ammo box concept.

          • Special ammo in crucible is 100% not fine at all. No one, not remotely anyone on this planet, should be able to use a fusion or shotgun only and just run around brainless firing away. Special ammo needs to be limited to one ammo per primary kill or something like that. Or, back to ammo crates.

            • “Stop listening to the top YouTubers and streamers” Getting ohk’d hasn’t ever been fun, there were just larger issues while special wasnt yet festering in peoples minds. Chaos can be fun but for a lot of gamers in fps games not as much, people want some control over things, it’s why a lot of people dislike momentum and mayhem, because it’s just a mess intended to be so.

            • If I kill 2 ppl with my ohk weapon I shouldn't have 4 shots you double your ammo on every kill almost no noticeable change from b4 it still needs to come down big time 1 to 1 returns plus ammo box's maybe but with the absolute abuse of ohk weapons I'd be happy to see them get hit hard only getting ammo from community boxes set to timers out in the open learn to shoot a primary an you will be fine special weapons have spoiled you

              Pick one: - One shot tastic Destiny the way it should be - Bringing back esportsy mostly primarys crucible I hate being 1 shot by stuff too but I refuse to go back to year 1. If I wanted to exchange primary weapon fire all day I'd go play Call of Doodoo.

                  I'm not asking for nerfs to anything but the infinite special ammo rewarding any 2 year old with a shotgun or main ingredient. Special weapons are NOT primary weapons yet Bungie allow the community to use them as primaries. For too long have people spent entire games with their shotguns out, it has to end. The current economy is not [i]fine[/i]. As long as infinite ammo with zero consequence exists, it is not fine. Death is of zero consequence in this game. You ape with your special "primary", kill or get killed then get free ammo either way. Limits exist for a reason. If you want special weapons to be special weapons, they need to be treated as such. When you die, you shouldn't respawn with ammo, there's plenty of it around so go grab some, just don't be stupid about doing so or you'll be punished.

                  • I don't agree at all. It's easy af to main a green ammo weapon in crucible. Special ammo isn't special. Imo there are way too many one hit kills going on. I support a reduction in green ammo.

                    • Sweeping changes justified with circumstantial evidence and how you think the game was three years ago. Good luck with all this.

                    • I gotta ask why is it when people call for nerfs to ammo economy in PvP does every go to "no one wants d2 year1 again" when the ttk of weapons timers on abilities and the sandbox and general movement are far and away different to then. And PvP will always be a dumpster fire just gotta accept it

                      • Ya know it's funny past few days I've been trying out new pulse rifles and getting around 35/50 kills mostly with the pulse and probably a max of 10 kills with a shotgun. People are saying it's the special ammo that's a problem yet if I'm getting those numbers hardly using special ammo and mostly using pulse rifles then I believe its more a skill issue than them dying to ohk weapons. Special and primary weapons are in a good place with a few weapons that are annoying. But legit all those who want special ammo nerfed are the ones who are just actual bots and don't know how to read radar or how to use movement on game.

                        • I like D1 Crucible because it was chaotic and fun. That's what videogames should feel. That's what I paid for, to play a fun videogame. Something happened here in D2. It just feels wrong. I can't find the right word... Broken! That's it. It's just broken.

                        • Sorry but I'm with some of the other ppl special ammo needs to be addressed having most of your players running around using a secondary as your primary weapon is a problem all you have to do is get 1 kill or pick up someone else's brick then get on a shotguns or fusion rifle killing spree without having to use your primary Putting it in ammo boxes and spawning with limited ammo on you Special weapons was always meant to dominate over primary and heavy over specials but it also not meant to replace a weapons role as well Spawn with 3 rounds ammo on crucible start Spawn 2 or 1 round on each death Special no longer drops on kills Special ammo box spawn randomly around map (3 max)

                          • I guess you talk about PvP? I still see every game on control / IB players using non stop shotguns, fusions and snipers. Entire games. I don't believe the claimed change to special ammo economy did anything significantly. Weapons with OHK capability are hence still to powerful / dominating in PvP. But not the weapons deserve a nerf but the 100% uptime abundant ammo enables. Imho.

                            100% Y3 D1 was a horrible experience - do not want to go back to that. It was basically primary + sidearm or Ice Breaker. I suspect everyone will move over to sidearms or bows if that is the case. Just nerf shot guns into the ground so you need to stuff an opponent in order to get a 1hk otherwise it’s a 2 tap. Like seriously make them have 3M range or something and increase charge time for all fusions. The economy is not the problem it’s the balance.

                            • I'm the first one to -blam!- on streamers but they ain't the one's shouting for special ammo to be nerfed, if anything they maximise any advantage they can create with it, the only dudes that want special nerfed even more are usually the dudes that just died to a shotgun 5 times in the same crucible match and come on here raging lol
