The last good primary has finally fallen victim to pvp's archenemy: scrubs calling for nerfs.
It's a sad day for Destiny pvp. A moment of silence as we mourn. :'(
Quote from Luke Smith: [i]"We never intended for pvp to be dominated by any single weapon. It's clear that with the recent changes, other primaries just don't measure up. Hats off to our development team for creating this beast. It's sad to say, but the MIDA is just too good. Something must be done. Oh and don't think we've forgotten about snipers either. 1000-yard Stare has seen a spike in usage since the December update. We're working to tone that down a bit as well. Our goal is for all weapons types to have their niche. But this sniper in particular can outperform just about every other secondary in any given situation, and that's simply unacceptable. You can expect heavy reductions to accuracy, and a few other surprises I can't mention yet. We're hoping that by the end of January, pvp will be so diverse, you'll never get killed by the same gun twice in a row. That's always been the goal."[/i]

Edited by PapaBearMCMLXIX: 12/28/2015 3:54:29 PMLuke Smith id the common denominator of what is wrong with Destiny. Instead of telling Scrubs to "Suck it up and play the game" he caters to them and takes things away from the majority. IF Bungie and Destiny Ultimately fails, which they will at this rate it will be on his (Luke Smith) head. What is Unacceptable are the decisions that Luke Smith is making for the Destiny Community. Nerf MIDA Nerf 1000 Yard Stare Take away Year One Weapons " We don't want people using the same gun" Not Updating Raids to current levels to keep them relevant.
