Anything farther than 50 yards your not going to be able to hit a moving target 3 or 4 shots in a row, your not going to be able to out gun a scout rifle or sniper rifle from all the way across the map with your Hawkmoon.
Hand Cannons have gotten dumb, fix the range......
So worried about auto rifles and shot guns, meanwhile this junk is silly.
EDIT:
oh yes, it's sci-fi fantasy. Therefor several people seem to think that it is a good idea that range is absolutely irrelevant, and weapons designed to shoot across the map like scout and sniper rifles, should just be tossed in the trash as we all adopt the Hawkmoon or Thorn for essentially every battle tactic? Because no one at Bungie has ever caught on fire and done a Scorch Melee, lets just abandon any premis of weapon believability.

Just one answer you can respawn after death Realistic? :/
-
They arent pistols...they're future hand cannon
-
I guess you must hate movies too? Because all the gun battles are super realistic. :/
-
Haha you are terrible with a pistol then. And for the record destiny uses magnums... Alot of differences between a Bareta m9 and a S&W 500 magnum
-
Ever heard of "the future"?
-
None of the weapons in most video games are realistic
-
8 RisposteI use to bullseye wamp-rats with my T-16 back home, and they're not much bigger than two meters
-
That's why it's a fictitious game
-
That's why battlefield is king... Bullet drop requires way more skill
-
Maybe your perception if how far your target is from you in game is wrong. Problem solved.

Stop crying and go play cod if this is how you feel, space cowboy for life

let's see...In a world of space spiders, space robots, space zombies, space turtles, and GIANT FLOATING MAGIC SPACE BALLS .....You are complaining about the GIANT FREAKING HAND CANNON (not pistol) being unbelievable?
-
Lol missed the Nerf did you?? Also you lost me when you went from real life to video game.. I mean seriously you shouldn't be hitting the broadside of a barn with an assault rifle while jumping and running dodging etc. lol hilarious
-
The handcannon is more like a precision revolver than it is a pistol. Therefore it CAN hit those farther away targets.
-
I think you need to learn more about hand guns and/or learn how to shoot. Yes a lot have a "effective range" that is short but as you "gain experience" with any weapon you learn it's quarks and can utilize it a lot better
-
because in real life you can blink strike or fist of havoc too..... the game isn't meant to be realistic. the story is set in the future so who knows maybe pistols can have that much range
-
2 RisposteWell since we are technically trained shooters, we would be more skilled and able to hit further distance targets. I've seen multiple people who are in the army go hunting with pistols because they are more used to using them, as well as being highly accurate at far distances.
-
6 RisposteHas BUNGIE ever fired a pistol that has magic bullets? Ridiculous, make it more like real life magic bullets. Has Bungie ever fired a bullet that does poison damage? Why can't they make thorn more like real life poison bullets. Has Bungie ever fired a gun in real life where killing someone with the gun actually makes the next bullets fire faster at the next target? Make it like it is in real life.
-
This is the future man......and its a hand cannon. Jeesh
-
Do you also consider a .44 mag a sniper rifle? There is not a pistol in destiny. there hand cannons
-
Modificato da HuckleberyFN2187: 3/19/2015 1:18:53 PMI know man seriously. I have a gun in real life that poisons people when I fire it and Thorn acts nothing like it. The developers should be ashamed of themselves for misrepresenting how guns in a video game act.

5 RisposteModificato da VisageOfAnAngel: 3/19/2015 3:18:30 AMFor all these "It's a handcannon" people, you do know that 'Hand Cannon" is simply a way to refer to a high caliber revolver, right? An example would be the .500 S&W Magnum which the best shooters are accurate to a maximum of 45 meters but most shooters (a.k.a. people brought back from the dead and suddenly start firing) have a range of around 15 meters. Hand Cannon's have too much range. Shotgun's range is messed up too, shotguns that use shot (like the ones in Destiny use) have an effective range of 6-18 meters. Destiny damn near quadruples that.

1 RispondiThe difference is in the name what do you think when you hear the word cannon I think mid range high impact if it were labeled pistol I.could see the point
-
Hand Cannons aren't pistols! They are HAND CANNONS!!!
-
2 RisposteA pistol and hand cannon are completely different. Hand cannons don't fire 9mm rounds.
