How to favor Primaries without ruining Specials
It’s easy, IMO:
-Give us less special ammo on spawn (1 full magazine)
-On death, take away most of the ammo we had, but let us keep some (half a magazine would do it, and only if before dying we had those bullets or more)
Why would this improve the crucible?
-Because we would still be forced to use our primaries more
-Each special bullet counts, so we would use it more carefully
-We would enjoy a real variety in weapons, without the abuse of NLB, Icebreaker, and sidearms
-Using a non-sidearm special wouldn’t be a chore anymore. I’m so tired of going to the box on EVERY - SINGLE - RESPAWN that I just surrendered and started using a Wormwood.
Yes, Primaries and Specials can coexist and I think this is the way to go. Bump if you agree.
The simplest solution is to just buff primaries back up to the 0.6 sec TTK the game had in Year One (Sidearm kill time)....and retune the game from there.
Anything else is a Band-Aid on a cancer.
