If they're not meant to play different roles, then WHAT THE -blam!- IS THE POINT OF HAVING DIFFERENT CLASSES!? If you play a Titan, you should play it like a Titan. You're given certain abilities for a reason. You're meant to charge into the fray, punch people in the face, clear objectives with a huge burst of energy, and pop open defensive shields to defend you and your friends from whatever the enemy does to retaliate. If you want ranged abilities, then switch to a Hunter and use Golden Gun, or switch to a Warlock and sling Nova Bombs everywhere. That's the point. The classes are meant to fill specific roles... they aren't meant to fill [i]every[/i] role. That's the entire point of making that decision in the first place. The Titans don't "need" a range ability... there are already two classes that have those. They don't need it anymore than Hunters "need" an ability that allows them to instantly cast it and kill whatever in a certain radius. They're not meant to fill that role... so they don't have that ability.
