Wake Up And Smell The Easy Mode
"M-m-muh weapons" He cried as his favorite weapons were nerfed.
You guys do realize why Bungie is making everything (apart from a few exotics) UN-upgradable?
They're essentially wiping the guns clean and it's OUR fault.
Still using that old sniper from TDB that has final round?
Not anymore.
Still cheesing bosses and being an elitist about Gjallarhorn?
Nope.
Playing Crucible easy mode and getting the highest K/D in Crucible because Thorn?
You wish.
Blink Shotgunning your way to victory?
R.I.P. Scrub.
Destroying Sepiks, Walkers, Archon Priest, Atheon, etc with Black Hammer and Ice Breaker?
Get outta here.
[b]Am I guilty of these things?
Of course I am.[/b]
Is it my fault?
Kinda.
I use these tactics and weapons, I'm at fault for being a scrub.
I blame others for elitism, but us as a community are to blame for that as well.
I mostly blame Bungie for making such OP weapons and then taking their time to nerf them.
Taking a lot of time too.
Thorn has been dominating for quite some time now. On top of that, you can still glitch Thorn (Never done that before, but was blamed for doing so)
Am I salty?
A little. Playing against a team of all Thorn is kinda frustrating.
Some Hopscotch here and there, but not too bad.
I'm so hyped for weapons patch 2.0 and for our weapons to be mostly useless in TTK.
Hopefully Bungie won't screw up this time and make a certain gun the next Gjallarhorn.
[u]-Opinions are opinions, if you think I'm bad at Destiny and I should kill myself or something similar to that, okay. That's your opinion-[/u]
[b]EDIT:[/b] Hey guys, criticism is great and all, but if you feel that I'm wrong in any way, please point out why, don't just insult me.
I promise if you pose an argument to mine in a reasonable and sensible manner, I will reply back and maybe even agree with your points and admit defeat. Calling me names doesn't get you anywhere and I'll end up ignoring you.

You make a valid and convincing argument. A vast majority of the community has done everything you laid out, myself included. Yet, the trouble is, as with much of everything, is that the loudest screamers are often the most deluded. We all want the best for ourselves selfishly, yet are irritated when someone else receives the same, and begin making claims of what I call "pseudo-elitism." Everybody wants to be the best but no one works for it and they feel entitled to it. And if they can't have it, well let's whine and complain and demand radical changes. But then do not come back a cry that those same drastic measures you demanded are dropped on you like an anvil. I play this game because I want powerful gear. Plain and simple. When I play crucible, I want those same powerful weapons and gear to be available. And I want the same for my opponents. What will that cause? An even playing field where skill, and skill alone, will be the deciding factor. That way, a player who loves using No Land Beyond can kill as easily as someone running around with Hard Light. The gear and weaponry are equal in power, it's just who is more accurate. The Hard Light player may panic and spray and pray, whereas the NLB player will remain calm and place an accurate killing shot. The opposite can be true. The NLB is wildly firing, missing, and the Hard Light lines up a clean burst of auto fire and kills. Bottom line is, we criticize without taking the time to analyze what it is we are criticizing. We react with emotion.
