It is getting obvious that Universal Remote is becoming OP. And why not?
Pros: Great range, good damage, primary slot (unlimited ammo, can use a sniper).
Cons: Exotic gun (you can only use 1)
It is making the crucible a terrible game mode. Everywhere I go I see people running UR with No Backup Plans and a 1K Yard Stare. It is ridiculous.
So here is my proposed change to make Universal Remote more balanced.
Reduce the 1-hit-kill range significantly.
While this may sound crazy (because UR is supposed to have good range), it is needed. I can easily get 1 shot kills outside of regular shotgun range, to the point where it outclasses the good ranged shotguns like Conspiracy Theory-D. Reducing range by something like 25% is fair, so it is harder to get a 1 shot kill, but better to get a very reliable 2 shot kill instead. (Only nerf the range in PVP, it is perfectly fine in PVE.)
Also, maybe changing the carried ammo supply might fix some issues too, but it is risky (as UR's second main benefit is ammo upon respawn)
But this [b]MUST[/b] be fixed before rise of iron, or else it will be ruined by kids running around with URs and NBPs.
I'm not saying that UR should be underpowered or useless, I'm saying that it should be more fair in the PVP modes.
(For the record, I think NBPs are perfectly balanced and fine)
Don't bother commenting blind hate. Actually think about my ideas.
Please read this Bungie. Please.
Upvote if this is a good idea.
EDIT: Changed range nerf to 25%

1 답변Try using fusion rifles before whining that uni remote is too good. The actual counter is a mid-fast charge rate fusion, plan C is a good option, I prefer ashraven. I keep seeing people moaning about this weapon, but I hardly have a problem when someone is running it in my games because I can melt them while they are trying to close the gap. It's an ok gun and hardly broken. Cheeky, yes. Frustrating, maybe. But not OP.

작성자: goldstarlestelle 8/1/2016 3:42:05 PMIt should outclass any other SG for range. Thats the point of it's whole existence. It should not be reeled in to be on par with any other SG in the game for range. It should exceed all SG in the range category.

1 답변Man...these hunters are running rampant with nerfs. THAT...is what needs to be nerfed.

Or play in mid range and unpredictably? They say insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result. Well there you go. Change up your gameplay. U.r. is fine. That being said i actually sharded mine because im not a shotgun user. I tried it out and found it didn't fill my playstyle. Sorry but i cannot agree with you o.p.

1 답변Over here year one players. Pull up a seat. Let's hear what the year two player has to say on balance

How about leave it as it is. breaking a shotgun because you guys can't get out of there range doesn't help. The UR has more cons then pros like. Low ammo A slow pump action speed Crappy range not ADS And to boot all the unnecessary nerfs the other shottys have like slower speed while using it. So no it not OP and it was never was so just stop.

It has counters, and to enable the most prominent counter, you need to use radar. It can be turned on by going into settings and turning your HUD on. When you see red near you, simply jump away from the shotgun and don't allow him to close the gap. MIDA can kill in 4 headshots, which can be fired in about a second. That's enough time to finish the shotgun guy off before he reaches you. If you're really having problems, equip a shotgun in your secondary slot as a last line of defense.

Can't say I agree with this. Any of it. This is a perfect example of the effects of [b]power creep[/b]. Other abilities and weapons are nerfed so much that other "less good" weapons and abilities rise to the top of the pile. Case-in-point, the Universal Remote. Besides the blanket nerfs to shotguns, the UR has undergone [i]no changes[/i] in it's lifetime. I can't wrap my head around it suddenly being OP without any changes in all that time.

So snipers such as 1000Y, LDR and L.BOW dominates and ppl have no problem with it but God forbids if a shotgun became good it's instantly OP. Although I don't agree but I know for sure it'll be nerfed with all shotguns getting an extra nerf just because streamers are complaining and Bungie can't say no to them.

작성자: thestranger 8/1/2016 8:39:13 AMI literally just killed a team in skirmish on the cauldren that had 2 plays using UR. They literally couldnt do anything to stop me and my team and they were actually pretty good players. My point it... [spoiler]Universal remote is fine as is[/spoiler] And its a exotic shut gun. As a primary. It should have range. EDIT: why not buff more primarys we all know they could use it.

15 답변Personally i think it's fine where it is it is exotic after all all shotguns should be able to compete with it and if not perhaps it's the user i'd say it's more along the point of annoying. should be able to outgun it with TLW.
