Alright, that's about enough. People have expressed their opinions, both positive and negative, and it was fun to hear what others thought about what I said (And a few about me as well). Thanks for the response guys. Hope you all have a nice day. ^_^ [spoiler]by the way...does anyone know who took my pants?[/spoiler] Oh, and don't open the spoiler unless you want to read a giant wall of text. Be warned. [spoiler]Well, first off, if you want to hate or be a troll, don't expect a response from me. Sorry. If, on the other hand, you want to have a civilized conversation or debate, then we'll talk. Ok? Good. Alright. The new meta. AR's and Scouts. What's not to like...right? Wrong. Bungie's made a fundamental error in patch 2.1 rebalancing: in their effort to make the game more balanced, they've tuned down a handful of things [i]too much[/i]. Take pulses for example. Sure you can still use them, but you're going to lose to a competent auto at mid-close range and a scout at long range. They're, at this point, inferior to these two weapon classes. And, the funny part is, [b]we're nearly back at square one, vanilla destiny meta.[/b] Pulses are just as bad now as they were in vanilla destiny. The difference? Auto's are [i]slightly[/i] less OP. We've come all this way, from "buff pulses we can't use them" to "nerf pulses, they're way too OP!" And where are we left? Back at square one. Shotties? Hate me if you want, but they were fine in 2.0, for the most part. Face it. They were [i]far[/i] more tolerable than in the past. Granted, the "felwinters" archetype (party crasher, conspiracy theory) still hit too hard, but that's fixable [i]without[/i] nerfing the whole class of weapons. And, before you say "shotgun scrub wants his crutch back", I run a sniper, 2x snipers, or a sidearm ten times out of ten. I simply decided to never use shotguns ever again. With that said, shotguns in 2.0 were easy enough to counter [b]if you play smart[/b]. Key word: Smart. But the problem with this meta is mainly that, frankly, it's near impossible at this point to run an exotic that isn't part of the meta. That's something that I've only ever experienced in 2.1. I had no trouble using a variety of exotics in the thorn meta or the pulse meta...so why is there an issue now? Because they've tried [i]too hard[/i] to balance everything, and have only succeeded in making everything else but the current meta [i]too "balanced" (weak) to be competitive![/i] This meta is easily the most [i]stale[/i] and [i]boring[/i] meta to date. Easily. Now, before you all go saying "if X gun wasn't OP, then why'd so many people complain about it?" Quite simple. I've said this before, I'll say it again. [b]it's not the gun, it's the user.[/b] More often than not, if someone is being outplayed so badly that they feel the need to come and complain, then chances are they played against someone who was [i]better[/i] than them: smarter, more skilled, or more experienced. When it comes down to that, the answer is quite simple: [b]it's not because of some gun that you got beat, it's because the opponent played [i]better[/i] than you.[/b] That same skilled player most likely could, and would, beat out a less skilled player with [i]any[/i] gun. A shotgun. A sniper. A fusion. A sidearm. A pulse. An auto. A HC. A scout. They were all viable in 2.0, at least. Sure, some were better than others, but not by much. Now? Now everything's been toned down except the few weapons that would have been better by a bit. Now, that bit is a little more significant. Too significant. And the funny thing? The "no-lifers" of PvP, the "experts"? Did you hear them complaining by the masses? Did you hear even a few complain? (Guns, not supers). Probably not. Why? Because they recognized that 2.0 was the [i]most[/i] balanced the crucible had ever been. And now? Now it's back to shit. Now it's time to sit back and watch as people come to this realization, one after another. We had it good, now it's gone. Now bring the hate, bring the flamers. They'll slander me today, and find out they're wrong in the coming future.[/spoiler]
