Reign it in, there, call of duty elitist. This is not a military simulator. This doesn't even take place in a time period that we can pinpoint, so why are you taking issue with imaginary, virtual guns that may or may not be a plausible answer in today's world? I'm sorry, did you live in the destiny universe? Do you know all of the facts? Do you know how the firing mechanisms changed between this time in game and Destiny's "present?" Because if you know these things, that would have been MUCH better context, and you could have told the Destiny community that these things don't actually work. My next question really falls on your background; are you a firearms enthusiast, or are you an firearms engineer? Do you build guns, or do you just own/look at them in magazines and gun stores? This goes beyond nit picking. Now, you're just looking for an issue. Do you take into consideration the angles at which you view the guns? Do you know of a fusion rifle that exists, right now? How about a handgun that shoots void ammunition? How about a rocket launcher that can split into smaller rockets (without exploding) that track (with discretion, and only hostile targets) an enemy? The sci-fanta-fiction here isn't meant to give you a sense of reality. You want that, find the game for me. Video games are meant to be a source of entertainment, not give the player a sense of realism, and I think that's really where you went wrong, here. You were so busy looking for something to complain about, you made yourself a target in a community just as poisonous as you're trying to be. It's a gun, in a game, that has no bearing on your day to day life. Simply; move on from it.

  • Actually, after reading all of the links, and repeatedly reading my own argument, trying my best to do so in a third person. Perspective, only the ad-hominem argument is even remotely viable. At which point did the composition/division argument NOT happen on your end? Hypocrisy is up there somewhere. Since you're so well versed in the subject (by the way, if you couldn't tell, the last comment is called sarcasm), maybe you should find out what it means.

  • Considering the fact that you instantly jumped to trying to tell me I'm wrong, you obviously have no argument against it. Fallacy? Sorry. If you're taking issue with items in a game with a setting not in the modern day, the argument in invalid, and you're wrong. I'm sorry, the links won't help you here. Don't try and be an elitist. It just makes you look like an asshole.

    Honestly, I stopped reading what you said when you tried to use Call of Duty as an argument. Everything else, I just assumed. I hope I got them all right...

  • Not even close. I used the call of duty argument once, as an insult. If you stopped at the beginning, you have no right to speak. Now, unless you read what I said originally, you can kindly remove yourself, because now, you look ignorant. Ad-hominem, and I could give a [b]fu[/b]ck less.

  • Yes. And inferring that I play CoD (with the backhanded intent of that accusation) is an ad-hominem remark. Anyone who resorts to that kind of stupidity isn't worth my time. It completely invalidates any other point you try to make. Also, this is my thread. I created it. And until someone with the power to do so comes along and forces me to stop, I'll speak as much as I wish. I didn't ask you to come here and start talking about CoD...

  • Again, one comment, a very small and insignificant comment. How can you put down an argument without actually acknowledging it's existence based on the first line in a paragraph? Read it, or don't respond. You're ignorance is completely uncalled for.
