The last good primary has finally fallen victim to pvp's archenemy: scrubs calling for nerfs.
It's a sad day for Destiny pvp. A moment of silence as we mourn. :'(
Quote from Luke Smith: [i]"We never intended for pvp to be dominated by any single weapon. It's clear that with the recent changes, other primaries just don't measure up. Hats off to our development team for creating this beast. It's sad to say, but the MIDA is just too good. Something must be done. Oh and don't think we've forgotten about snipers either. 1000-yard Stare has seen a spike in usage since the December update. We're working to tone that down a bit as well. Our goal is for all weapons types to have their niche. But this sniper in particular can outperform just about every other secondary in any given situation, and that's simply unacceptable. You can expect heavy reductions to accuracy, and a few other surprises I can't mention yet. We're hoping that by the end of January, pvp will be so diverse, you'll never get killed by the same gun twice in a row. That's always been the goal."[/i]

Not even going to hide the links that everyone knows by heart by know... Son I am dissapoint
-
Omg over 400 replies. Its ridiculous how our forum works. Talk about Mida nerf ... million comments
-
Glad this isn't real. The weapon isn't OP it's just overused. They need to make adjustments to other things to make them competitive.
-
hahahhahahaha nice bait
-
Nice try chonch
-
The nerf isn't because the weapon is over powered or give the player an advantage, its because MIDA is over used. Bungie stated way back when they want weapon variety. This nerf is to limit MIDA and even weapon usage. In my opinion, they should nerf and Buff weapons without making a statement to prevent bandwagon users and force players to find their own niche weapons

I wish this were real.

I've seen that video before, lmao. Classic

Fake...old update notes reworded

Just go ahead and check out all the folks who didn't click the links.

Edited by Helykaon: 12/31/2015 12:27:31 AMBungie announcement was from September. So tell me, are you pulling my left leg or my right leg?

Oh man...I can't wait to see where this goes.
-
Then tlaloc is super op and needs a -blam!-ing nerf. It is way better than Mida.
-
Well I guess bungie will never learn. They will always NERF and BUFF instead of BALANCE...... Hmmmm Halo5 pvp seems to be running smoother
-
I know this is b8, but the funny thing is bungie actually did say they're changing mida on crucible radio

Edited by NerfPaladins06: 12/30/2015 9:19:54 PMMida was equal to other year 1 scouts and was just fine back then. Then year 2 brought scouts that perform shitty in pvp and suddenly a returning year 1 is going to be nerfed? Buff other scouts, not nerf Mida. Edit: just clicked the links, ya got me. I still believe it will be nerfed however. Crybabies get everything nerfed. Someday they'll want the Imprecation nerfed.

I love muppets bloopers

"You'll never get killed by the same gun twice in a row. That's always been the goal" PAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA

Edited by PeetSquared: 12/30/2015 8:56:44 PMEdit...wait, was this thread bait? I don't see anything official about any of this. I'm not clicking on those links cuz this sounds like bullshit. Well, Bungie doesn't know how to balance, sans a nerf and we all know that. I'd say you guys also have yourselves to blame. I'm obviously not referring to everyone but to those folks who seem to gravitate to any new meta like moths to a flame. Anyone who isn't seeing a shit-ton of MIDA in PvP these days is blind or fooling themselves. I don't think that warrants a nerf but we all know Bungie does. Next time some gun becomes the new black, try having a modicum of creativity and come up with your own stuff. I freaking suck at PvP and barely ever play it. I still keep a 1kd, using strange loadouts and whatever I feel like using at the time. I am quite sure most of you PvP studs would fare much better, doing the same thing. In short, Bungie wants Destiny to be a casual PvP experience, as shown by their penchant for nerfs. When you guys are all using the same weapons and trying to he hardcores, stomping in pubs with all the current popular weapons, don't surprised when Bungie does what they do...nerf the shit out of it.

Just go ahead take everyone's weapons and make us throw rocks. What's the use of making everyone the same. Is that the way you think it should be?

You suck bungie!
