I mostly agree with everything you said. - Super [b]is[/b] better - Grenades are definitely [b]too slow[/b] - Damage [b]is[/b] better I'd say I prefer the new weapon system tbh. Right now we're only seeing a smidge of the game, so you dont know how freequent shielded enemies will be, and really; I think having two 'primary' weapon slots (one obviously being the energy weapons) makes things a lot better for both PvE and PvP. It freshens up what you're shooting at in PvE a little bit because you're not constantly streaming the same type of fire at enemies like we had too in D1, whereas in PvP it helps because if one mag runs out in your kinetic weapon you can switch to your energy weapon and know you'll have a similar shooting style i.e rapid firing weapons with accuracy, as opposed to shotguns or snipers. Just my two cents worth anyway... Not saying you're wrong in anyway, just wanted to add to what you said. Overall the PC version is VERY nice, and im super excited to switch to PC from PS4. Hopefully I'll see you out there!

  • I do agree that I like the new weapon system, I'm not sure if I prefer it. My main concern is that I don't see the utility in having a dedicated energy weapon. There will likely be more shielded enemies, but even with that the shield has to match the weapon. In any event it seems like it will only be really useful a fraction of the time. I do like being able to use a scout/handcannon combo and other varieties, i'm just not sure if the sacrifice of having a shotgun/rocket combo etc. was worth it. It's definitely better for PvP as PvP was much more fun for me this time around than anything in D1 ( i don't really care for PvP in general). I guess I was just hoping for something more imaginative with the use of energy weapons. Like certain enemies (not shielded) be more susceptible to energy weapons, or all shields being the same instead of needing to match elements. Especially where they already seem few and far between, it would make switching to your energy weapon seem more useful. I'm fine with it, but just think there could have been more thought put into it.
