I usually don't speak out with these kinds of things and I'm sure I'm going to get flamed the shit out of for this one. [b]Unpopular opinion (?):[/b] I believe that Exotic Weaponry/Armory shouldn't be omnipotent, carry all, kill all type of items. In any major MMO, most items like this, are extremely difficult to obtain,[b] (NOT A RNG HARDMODE RAID)[/b], or don't exist, and if they do, don't exist for long. This post is a response to the lighting up of the forums over the much disputed "Vex Mythocast." The mindset on this gun are very opinionated and [i][b]ALWAYS[/b][/i] lean hard left or right. I do believe that if you have the skill and patience to beat out Atheon, you deserve a reward, not an overpowered, nearly game-breaking, RNG-based drop chance, weapon. [b]Objectively: [/b] A gun that, used correctly, mind that this is extremely important: used correctly, can carry a team to victory, and score 7000-10000+ points per Crucible match, is still overpowered, despite the fact that this person has excelled at PvE for completing a raid. So: [b]Nerf's like this:[/b] [quote]Base Damage decreased by 34% Increased Precision Damage multiplier from 1.25 -> 1.50 (headshot bonus)[/quote] Are inevitable, no matter how much you want to argue your point. Look at these numbers, as a person who knew how to counter or atleast, stall Vex Mythocast, 34% seems a bit too much as a RNG for people who have received the gun (not earned). [b]Other:[/b] [b]Regarding the limitations on VoG's "buff?" [/b] Any gaming company's worst mistake in my opinion is ruining player ingenuity, [quote]Kill volume added to sniper platforms to prevent players from sitting on top of them[/quote] this game was advertised as free world, inventive, and open. Pulling stunts like this, pull down your game and your reputation, why ruin a perfectly fine strategy? If the hot-fix did something like: [quote][i]Increased difficulty of using platforms in the Vault of Glass.[/i][/quote] Then you'd be sticking to your word, and generally, improve the experience of "next-level" to general PvE. [b]General Disregard of the concept "Open World" and "PvE"[/b] I feel like this game... Kind of ripped everyone that bought it off. You advertise the world as something brilliant, amazing, something that we as gamers can open a map or story mission, and honestly enjoy it over and over. No. No. No. and... No. You failed those promises I'm afraid, with 5 different Crucible gamemodes that don't deliver with their matchmaking system, no choice whether to pick a connection or combat rating based mode of matching, a story that is half-assed (not that this ticks me off that much, but the fact that [b]it had SO MUCH POTENTIAL[/b]), and missions that are repetitive and offer [i]no[/i] new experience. [b]But despite all this...[/b] I love this game. One of my favorite games for sure, simply because of the MMO style and general layout of the game. I won't touch on other sensitive topics like [b]Crucible Classes[/b] (which all have their own checks and counters), [b]DLC [/b](I think how they're doing them is fine), [b]Xur [/b](because most players only average 2 hours a day and I feel earning through strange coins deserves a little more merit than RNG), or [b]other Exotic Classed Items[/b], many of my pseudo-rant ancestors have touched these topics in a lovely manner. [b]P.S.[/b] Sorry for the rant. Preparing for the incoming shitstorm. Have a nice day, and keep in mind that these are my own opinions, not yours, and you are entitled to whatever you want to believe.
