Aside from the fusion rifles, like you said, a great majority of the exotics we use are not "old" lol. Red death/suros - heals the user Vex - obvious Ice breaker - regen ammo Patience and time - user is invisible Invective - regen ammo Mida - user is faster Thorn - obvious Gjallarhorn - wolfpack Dragons Breath - fireball Thunderlord - enemies explode Super good advice - ammo comes back to the gun when it misses Etc. Same goes for any weapon with an element. None of these are "old" lol.

Exotics do not count period ( even so, old is good, future is good, modern day military looking stuff, not so good) ..... (oh and FYI fourth horseman, BS! bungie damn well knows that is a break action shotgun but they said F-U to the community that got excited when they first saw it. which includes me XD ) Anyhoo, I was just responding to your post, I do not want to, in my games, use a p-90, mpk-4 or any modern firearm, I want good old classical, antique/ornate weapons, tribal weapons, or future-tech weapons, I want creativity, not modern firearm types put into destiny.... Some of the weapons get a pass as being creative.... Lastly, when I saw hand cannon, I got excited, only to find out its a revolver and be let down... (though was an energy weapon) then I was slightly excited to find out the barrel is at the bottom of the cartridge/magazine :p

How do they not count? Lol like that is the epitome of future weapons in the game and they are the best for a reason. I get what you're saying though, makes enough sense to me

Perks mean very little, the creativity comes from the weapon itself, TLW NLB Forth horseman, good examples of old, yay P&T good example of decent designed middleground Icebreaker Thorn, Fusions, hardlight, decent examples of future tech Exotics do not count because they are a small portion of the game What counts is the basic models bungie uses for everything, common - rare, and some legendary... most the weapon concepts are old, / modern.... Games need a specific amount of a fantasy factor, destiny let me down with is massive amount of, modern firearm tech. Fantasy extends to the past/history and future-tech. (If I could wield all exotics, I'd have no issue, I would have either, Truth+Icebreaker+hardlight, taking the futuretech setup, TLW/NLB/UR+forth horseman+Dragons breath, for a retro setup, or Thorn+invective+.... I guess thunder-lord, for a magic themed setup,.. I like stuff that matches, that looks like it should be together, that doesn't feel like modern military stuff) Hm... I think I am losing my perspective, if i Had a proper perspective to argue from originally O_o main point! game disappointed by modern style weapons, when I found non modern styles, I got upset I couldn't make a setup of matching items... Edit: Oh, And I would like to have a futuretech crossbow / bow n' arrow in destiny, not exotic :P

I see what you're talking about, more interested in the looks of the weapons and the creativity involved in the weapon making process. We were on two different pages before i think :p and i agree a bow would be fun, but it would probably have to be a one shot to be worth using haha
