It's pronounced scruffy lookin need herders

Amen, preach it

It's sniping crybabies. "Wahhhh I can't sit and snipe they rush me with shotguns. Wahhh" shotguns are easily countered anyone who says otherwise is a moron.

I main a sniper, but this is total overkill.

Data wins again.

Here's why it's a good thing: - When you give every player the option to use a power weapon (any one hit kill) instead of their primary - make ammo spawn often enough that it's all some people use - build maps that promote cqc with so many tight corners and hallways - give players the mobility they have with Titan skating, blink, and shadow step You've broken the balance of the game. This game has lost whatever "skill required" it had because players can completely void the use of a primary. Not that that's much better because there is no standard shared primary choice for everybody to be on a level playing field, but it still requires an actual gunfight. Bungie acts as if they don't know how to balance a game but they seem to forget that they created arguably the most balanced and skilled multiplayer on the mlg circuit with halo 2 and 3. 2 Key points: - Standard weapons could be used by anyone, all with the same time to kill, but built for different ranges. This game required gun skill and smart strafing which you can see a glimpse of when you have two people using the same weapon battling it out in destiny. - Power weapons were only controlled by one person, not by 8 players, and forced teams to fight for map control to give them an edge Supers will obviously stay in the game as is as that's what makes destiny what it is. Although I'm a believer that sunbreakers have broken the balance and the team with the most SBs has a significantly higher chance of winning (They could fix that by dropping the damage reduction to 50 % and granting an over shield on the first kill instead of health regen on every kill). Destiny needs a "hardcore" playlist in which specific (balanced) load outs are set or can be chosen from (or the option to make a custom load out from set of standard weapons available to everyone), special and heavy ammo is limited to one crate and the number of people who are in range of it decreases the ammo given (for instance, one person opens special and gets 5 shotgun shells, 5 people open it, they only get two each), supers can remain as is. If they committed to this kind of playlist, those who want more gun skill and tactical play could play that, and those who are casual and want to run around playing with shotguns and snipers the whole game can do that in the regular playlists and if you complain about shotguns and snipers then that's your fault, go play the hardcore one.

Welcome to Destiny.

"Real life sniper" Haha. Not even close

So then try your primary

The shotgun was my favorite crucible weapon. Let's have sword fights. P.S. Swords are gay.

I mostly play with a sniper nowadays and I still wholeheartedly agree with you. The only thing that's needs a minor change is pulse rifles and MAYBE sunbreakers

Rise of the fusion rifle mark my words

Nerf herder

They definitely over did it

Thank you! I really liked my shotguns in year one especially in pve but since the children in crucible can't get they're crap together, they screwed us pve players over by making them useless

Lol...

I'm with you buddy... My kd is only .80 because I'm a shotgun/melee style player like yourself, but that's is what is fun for me and how I prefer to play, unlike the camping doorway Hunter homo's with their crutch red death pulse rifles. I'm convinced that no one in bungie has ever seen a shotgun or has any clue how they work... They are under the impression that they work like a blunderbus and just shoot silverware and scrap metal in every direction. I think they only do it to appease the cry babies who have no game when players are close. I keep hoping when the zombie apocalypse happens, my over shield holds up as I try to melee the guy in the face when he is coming at me with a Remington 870...

I haven't played this game in a while, especially the PvP, but I never liked how how the weapon nerfs effect both the PvP and PvE. If they just made the "weapon adjustments" for PvP and PvE separate from each other then that wouldn't be as bad. As much as I hated getting killed by shotguns in the PvP whenever I'd play that, it's still didn't bother me as much as getting killed by a person with a sniper rifle. Whether it be people sitting in the back of the map, being in long narrow pathways, or getting killed by one within scout/pulse rifle range, it always made me mad. I also refuse to think it took skill to use a sniper rifle in PvP as well. From what I've heard, sniper rifles had high aim assist. Plus you're not really putting yourself at risk if you're out of every other weapons' effective range. But what does my opinion matter, it's not like I'll come back to this game anytime soon.
