Heavy Ammo Exploit. Fix it in PvP already.

Just played a clan named "forget the rest" in control. Beat them once and then the next match they started using a popular heavy ammo exploit. The way this works is that the player can use a certain scout rifle with the perk, "shoot to loot." Basically, you can continously shoot any type of ammo until it dissapears. This can also be used in PvP and PvE to max out your heavy ammo with just one heavy drop. These guys were using this exploit. Feel free to check my recent match at fire base delphi. We had the lead and everything went to shit when these guys started using this heavy ammo exploit. I saved the video clip of the match and you can see the top two guys on their team were using seemingly infinite truth rockets. How do they do it? They stand next to a heavy ammo crate and let it drop on the ground. Then the player shoots the heavy ammo drop with the scout rifle to get atleast 6 rockets. Do not say this is not an exploit. I dont want to hear that bullshit, "its a game mechanic." It isnt meant to be used that way and you can see with the ways Bungie has patched certain cheeses. These guys are an embarrassment lol, smh. Bump to get this fixed, atleast in PvP, please. :) Edit 1: Added extra tags.

  • Fix it or not that doesn't mean you will win? We can easily kill you with rockets and then pick up yours? Yes it's an exploit but if it's there, then use it till it gets patched. Otherwise you are gunna be handicapping yourself.

    • Holy moly there is a bunch of crazy ideas on here. My take, this is totally not what Bungie had in mind with this perk on the scout rifle, they thought it would be used to pick ammo from afar not to continuously use and gain max heavy. In my eyes this is the same as the infinite revive glitch that Sunsingers could use awhile ago. Doing this may not be "cheating" (I consider it cheating) this is really disrespectful in the same way that infinite Sunsinger revive is.

      • The people on these forums make me sick. Half of this community are a bunch of bitches. Anyone that uses this heavy ammo bug should be banned from Destiny. It's one thing screwing over Crota. It's another thing screwing over real people. Bungie has banned people before for similar methods of exploiting the heavy ammo. They'll do it again. You'll get the last laugh. You use the bug. You're just proving yourself a weak player. Get good.

        • Jesus I feel bad for all the idiocy you have to put up with lol. It's just so obvious that it's a glitch/exploit. Anyways I'm glad I didn't join these guys' clan a while back if this is how they play. Surprising that they actually had a KD requirement when they pull this bs.

            • isn't an exploit. that's just how shoot to loot works. you shoot an ammo box, you get heavy. perk never says you can't shoot it more than once. it's bungie's fault if they intended it to be that way. more like lazy programming that an exploit.

            • I agree it's kinda an exploit. But why would they put STL on a gun if you're not meant to use it. Bungie is the one in the wrong here if anyone

                              • I agree. Anyone who thinks this isn't a glitch or even cheating has some moral examining. I was playing Clash when I killed a guy with a rocket launcher. He dropped Heavy Ammo and I saw three people run over it without picking it up. I even died trying to get it once and it was still there. I thought HA drops like that could be grabbed or seen by everyone but I guess not. So if I wanted to I could've stacked on my rare sniper I had shot it - and within a span of three minutes I could've had triple the HA in an instant. I realize it was incredibly unfair though when I figured it out a few months ago and didn't so it. A lot of people care about KDR and their egos - I only care about actually getting better. Not getting cheap kills. I really hope they add in a hard core mode already. I'm so tired of Heavy Ammo, and the Radar. If only they added in a mode where special weapons were... Special. No HA drops and no radar - Id probably enjoy PvP more.

                              • honestly the answer is just to remove heavy ammo from the crucible. It ruins the game. With grenades, supers, fusion rifles and shotguns what they are there is no need for heavy ammo
