Colony is a bit rediculous
I really think there needs to be some changes to colony especially with how abundant power ammo is in crucible now. Possibley rate of fire be slower or size of the mag be less. It's way too easy get kills with it even if you do not have line of site on your target. All you have to do is look for red on the radar and fire in that general direction. To have a gun that fires that many shots and that quickly where you don't even have to be aiming at an enemy is complete lack of skill. Just shoot it and the grenades will find your enemy better than an axion bolt.
I do think the colony is kind of garbage for PVE but in PVP it is just stupid easy to get kills with. Personally I think if they would just slow down the rate that power ammo spawns everything would be fine.
[spoiler] This is my opinion, lot of people aren't going to agree with it. I especially expect the people that love using the colony to react negatively. I'm not always right this is just my opinion[/spoiler]

No, it’s in a better spot now that the Glance and Vigilance give incentive to not use it.

1 ReplyYou need to learn how to avoid it. Aka Jumping. But hey, as a dawnblade with attunement of the sky, I can hang for hours until they are gone.

2 RepliesWait people still use that shit? I thought people only used Vigliances wing and Gravitons lance Heres a tip. Jump.

Ridicule.

3 RepliesIt’s a FREAKIN heavy weapon, no one complains about a blast radius on a rocket launcher that can wipe out an entire 4 man team!!! This is why pvp and pve should NOT be connected, every time something gets nerfed, pve gets screwed over!!

People are still bitching about this gun?

Edited by egoflux: 5/25/2018 3:33:49 PMlet's see...i played 11 games of crucible yesterday and got killed by the colony once...and i die a lot...soooo, nope, not at all...the colony should stay exactly as it is edit: if anything it needs to be a ohk

Its fine as is.

As you can see you are kind of alone in your puddle of salty tears.

8 RepliesAlmost every time I use the thing, I need three shots to guarantee a kill, I need 1-2 with basically everything else. Run, jump, and/or embrace your inner Obi Wan. You have summoned me.

I do really enjoy playing Colony in PvE right now ...so get your skill up a notch in PvP instead of asking for a nerf. When you could not win PvP and asking for a nerf is a proof of "Lacking of Skill" of yourself.

1 ReplyIf people are using the Colony, then they are not using the Vigilance Wing or the Graviton Lance. So right there all the VW and GL crybabies should be happy as hell people are using the Colony. The Colony rounds are easy to avoid. It is a little maneuver called "Jumping". I know this may be a new tactic for some, but you should try it sometime. Works great.

The Colony is without a doubt the most pathetic PVP gun in the game. No Skill, Total Crutch Gun. All of you who are hiding behind the "No Nerf" statement can't aim so you depend on the gun to do the work for you. Have you ever noticed how often you see colony users camping heavy? It's because they SUCK and can't get kills any other way. Feed me all the salt you want, YOU KNOW IT'S TRUE. It's Bungie's answer to the no skill players out there.
-
Wow...who would’ve thought that a heavy weapon would be able to score easy kills? Let’s up the ante...IT’S AN EXOTIC HEAVY!!! It’s fair to say it’s doing fine!
-
2 RepliesNo way, It's underpowered if you ask me. Those things are soooo easy to evade it's comical. Strafe jump, get off the ground and the deaths you take from Colony will decrease dramatically. Quit looking for nerfs, try to adapt first.

Private match. Bring a friend. Teach each other how to avoid it.

3 Replies"Jump jump jump jump"~ Every bad player who crutches on Colony Here's a fun fact jumping only works when you are in a massive open field cause if there is wall or rock or anything sticking out of the ground the colony drones will climb it and detonate right next to you giving the bad player a easy kill. Oh you jumped backwards in a hallway ? TO BAD ! Colony climbs walls. Oh you jumped straight up ? TO BAD ! You jumped up next to a object sticking out of the ground. Oh you jumped onto a different ledge ? TO BAD ! Colony climbed it and is still chasing you Oh you actually managed to avoid it ? TO BAD ! The bad player just swapped to their Uriel's gift and killed you while you where dodging the colony drones. "Oh buff other guns wah wah wah"~ Every sweaty try hard who needs a crutch Guess what Bungi did that twice. First time Vigilance Wing became the cancer it is now and second time when other exotics where suppose to be as OP as VW only Graviton Lance became as cancerous as VW all other exotics got nothing. Making it so only exotic kinetic to use is VW only energy exotic to use is Graviton and only power exotic to use is Colony. Take your pick for your favorite weapon slot.

1 ReplyIf I were Bungie, to PvP whiners I would give only sticks and stones for PvP. Maybe then, just maybe, they would shut up for good.

[quote]It's way too easy get kills with that even if you do not have line of site on your target[/quote] That's the POINT of the weapon. Its designed to combat the "grab-ass team shoot" meta. Where people just clump up and squat in the tiniest part of the map they can squeeze themselves into and then turn three or four guns on all the avenues of approach once their radar lights up. The point of the Colony is that its doesn't require people to step out into that chokepoint and get melted by team fire....and the tracking function can go around corners and FORCE camping players to move. As long as you are not camping in a tiny spot with no maneuvering room....The Colony is pretty easy to counter. Get up in the air...and stay away from walls. The spder grenades can only run around surfaces. So as long as you're in a relatively open area, its a pretty ineffective weapon. But if your THAT GUY who is looking to squat on Warlock rift in a closet with two of your best buds? Well you're in for a bad day.

1 ReplyI don’t get killed by it hardly at all. I was in a match yesterday where the other team picked it up all match and the guy couldn’t get a single kill, it made him easier to snipe honestly. Keep it the way it is

2 RepliesHave to agree with you. Everyone hears the noise of it and immediately jumps in the air, because no matter where you are it is likely going to one hit you. Stupid with how many shots it has compared to a rocket. How many times have I fired a rocket at someone, it hits the wall beside them as their back is against it, and they go on living -----what the WHAT?! But a tiny crawling bug projectile can one shot you? Rockets are clearly outdated and need to go bye bye. The Vanguard needs to declare them useless tech and stop their production immediately.

4 RepliesEdited by PR4X1S: 5/25/2018 2:14:23 AMShut up wazup someone used it to stop your Lil killing spree. It's not that hard to avoid, especially if you watch your map carefully, just jump high and not near walls your all good, stop asking for Nerf's that'll ruin a good weapon that actually feels exotic. And I can truly say I've never been killed by one bug, unless I'm at half health; it takes two for a kill, so with a heavy giving you four shots that equates to two kills, that can easily be done with one rocket from a cluster bomb launcher..

Yep, nerf it😈
