Wake Up And Smell The Easy Mode

"M-m-muh weapons" He cried as his favorite weapons were nerfed. You guys do realize why Bungie is making everything (apart from a few exotics) UN-upgradable? They're essentially wiping the guns clean and it's OUR fault. Still using that old sniper from TDB that has final round? Not anymore. Still cheesing bosses and being an elitist about Gjallarhorn? Nope. Playing Crucible easy mode and getting the highest K/D in Crucible because Thorn? You wish. Blink Shotgunning your way to victory? R.I.P. Scrub. Destroying Sepiks, Walkers, Archon Priest, Atheon, etc with Black Hammer and Ice Breaker? Get outta here. [b]Am I guilty of these things? Of course I am.[/b] Is it my fault? Kinda. I use these tactics and weapons, I'm at fault for being a scrub. I blame others for elitism, but us as a community are to blame for that as well. I mostly blame Bungie for making such OP weapons and then taking their time to nerf them. Taking a lot of time too. Thorn has been dominating for quite some time now. On top of that, you can still glitch Thorn (Never done that before, but was blamed for doing so) Am I salty? A little. Playing against a team of all Thorn is kinda frustrating. Some Hopscotch here and there, but not too bad. I'm so hyped for weapons patch 2.0 and for our weapons to be mostly useless in TTK. Hopefully Bungie won't screw up this time and make a certain gun the next Gjallarhorn. [u]-Opinions are opinions, if you think I'm bad at Destiny and I should kill myself or something similar to that, okay. That's your opinion-[/u] [b]EDIT:[/b] Hey guys, criticism is great and all, but if you feel that I'm wrong in any way, please point out why, don't just insult me. I promise if you pose an argument to mine in a reasonable and sensible manner, I will reply back and maybe even agree with your points and admit defeat. Calling me names doesn't get you anywhere and I'll end up ignoring you.

  • [quote]Hopefully Bungie won't screw up this time and make a certain gun the next Gjallarhorn. [/quote] That is a problem that a lot of people have. They loved the Gjallarhorn and because it isn't coming with us yet, people expect a new Gjallarhorn. [b]Don't do that.[/b]

    You know, thing is, I may not use Thorn, but the guys against me in ToO will. I may not use a Final Round, but the guys against me in ToO will (oh well, I don't have a final round sniper anyway). And please, don't let me talk about shotguns + blink. Bungie is responsable for this, Bungie made this unbalanced meta, NOT US. I mean, we can create an "honor code" or whatever, like in Dark Souls, but that 11 y/o scrub will not use it. It's the human nature, we exploit thing when we can, and ever will do. Why I have to put me in a disadvantage? Yeah, I can outgun that Thorn user, smartplay that blinker, but why I have to play against that shit in a first play, without using it myself? Because of honor? Hell no. Die with the same shit you put on the table.

      Create separate stats for PVP and PVE on every piece of gear, and nerf PVP shit until their hearts are content, problem solved. Just leave my damn raid weapons the hell alone. Increasing the recharge time on Icebreaker? Because, you know, squeezing off 6 shots and having to wait 5-30 seconds to fire again is SO GODDAMN OP! OMFG! This game is less about what we, the players want, and more about how Bungie wants us to play their game, that we paid for. I don't think I've ever played a game where I was literally dictated to by the developer what weapons and gear I had to use in order to simply be viable, not even good or excellent, just VIABLE. So yeah, welcome to Destiny, the North Korea of video games where they axe their best talent, make baffling decisions, and pretty much shit on their people (fans) daily. Awesome. Awesome game. [spoiler]Bungie will never create a PVP stat table because that requires math, and math is hard! If you need proof, just take a look at their TTK pricing for UK and Sweden.[/spoiler]

      • Bungie are fixing things by not letting ascend guns to year 2. If they had better game design in vanilla, maybe that wouldn't be necessary

        Yeah I don't agree at all ... so we use weapons and abilities the way they were made to be used, with available perks for those weapons, in the game that they were made for and it's our fault that they can't balance them? Bullsh*t. It's Bungievision's fault for not thoroughly testing all perks / weapons / and abilities in THEIR game.

        • I quit using Thorn awhile ago. I rarely use TLW either. Now, it's Hard Light and my unleveled SUROS and it's going quite well!

            • We only use these tactics because the game forces us to replay the same content over and over. We want to get it done ASAP. So what if I keep getting critical hits over and over with Black Hammer to get a strike I have already played 40 times over quicker? Strictly speaking PvE, of course. I agree based on PvP.

              • It's not our fault. They should nerf them, which they did. There is no reason to scrap them.

                  • Poor bungie, making weapons so good the first year that they have to nerf them in order to make new exotics even viable. Black hammers perk will probably be re worked into a future exotic lol.

                      • You can take the blame if you want but I on the other hand, will not. I use Thorn in one gametype and that is ToO and even there I snipe legitimately 73.8% of the time(That's my sniper headshot ratio). On two of three characters my "Best Weapon" is my sniper, I never owned or used a FR sniper, I don't have a TLW because I scrap every single one the game hands me because I hate them that much. I just got my Gjalla before Xur sold it, and I spend most of my time in crucible completing personal weapon challenges with my clan i.e NLB Headshot Challenge, Hardlight, and No Weapon Challenge. I understand the game is made to be played to have fun and if kids want to sweat they can, I will still put a hurting on them with "Nerfed" guns.
