I like HC's, they seem to be in a good place
Hate, is a strong word ...... it's your game make it the way you want to. I'll either like it and keep playing or play something else.
Low RoF Auto's are good but could be a weeeee bit better. Make guardians grind for Shadow Price.
I would change the Truth back to 3 rounds.
Don't destroy awesomeness. Remember your sins of the past. When Vex Mytho first hit the scene it was a god. If you had left that alone would we be even talking about the truth. Same could be said for the Suros, Mida, Ice Breaker, and the list goes on. You created awesomeness then changed it. IF you didn't, would you finally have your weapon balance? Maybe, maybe not, but if you had a private match with guardians who used (when they we're in they're hay-day) a Vex, a Suros, a Mida, an IB and all the greats who would win? Would one be to OP? Or would you have good competition? Would it then come down to tactics? Would you have fun? If someone wants to snipe, let 'em snipe. If someone wants to shotty, let 'em shotty. I think you've gone through too much change to change it all back. But the Truth you can change back to 3. My hope is that Destiny 2 recieves the benefit from what it seems to me to be one long Beta test. When you create gold don't turn it back to iron.
The problem with guns like icebreaker is free ammo Regen that allows people to almost ignore the need for ammo crates. I guess it would make those guns almost useless in crucible if they didn't Regen ammo in crucible matches. A simple fix would be to eliminate the ammo Regen feature while in crucible matches to be in line with ammo changes but people would cry bloody murder if this was implemented.
the thing is, once they start with one change it cascades into another, then another and we end up with what we have now. If you had a god like gun that was effective at a different range then you think it would balance out and then it wouldn't matter what everyone was using. I could've mentioned Thorn by name as well. Everyone remembers when it over ran crucible. Then they ruined that one too. Now it's a shadow of itself just like all the guns that we're the "meta" at one time.
