Here's the problem with YOUR thinking. This game isn't an mmo. It's a shooter, with rpg elements and a competetive multiplayer. It has far more In common with a game like cod than wow. It was also marketed towards the cod demographic, so I think it's safe to assume I will receive an experience in line with a typical shooter. Rule number 1 of a competetive shooter is balance, plain and simple. Mythoclasts and pocket infinitys don't fit with that rule, bungie realized this and nerfed accordingly.

  • Balance is only applicable to competitive pvp. The problem is that the balance in mm is affecting pve. Further more, the problem with all fusion rifles is not the pocket infinity's ability to unload a ridiculous amount of ammo at other players, it is the range of all fusion rifles that can be ohk. I still have 3 rounds in my pi, but it will only take one.

  • Actually I find the term competitive to be bandied about far too loosely on Bnet. Destiny is nothing like competitive games. They might have people fooled with their posts about "competitive iron banner playlist", but frankly Iron Banner is not competitive at all. There are no pro teams or sponsored players like any true competitive games. Any who think they are competitive or pros at destiny are merely pro casuals competing against other casuals who usually don't care about the true competitive nature of games.

  • Hate to correct you here but it was marketed as an MMOFPS with a 10 year lifespan, No CoD, Battlefield, or other shooter has ever tried to pass itself off as having a ten year lifespan. Also name one CoD or other shooter where you have to walk around farming rocks, plants, and helium as a requirement to level up gear and weapons. Also what CoD or other shooter allows you to level up the same gear even if you are playing PvE or PvP. I play those game as well and they are fun but different from this, bungie claimed this would be an all new experience on console where players will "create their own storys" Again just because you want this to be the next game in the laundry list of shooters that people jump to does not mean that it is or was promised to be.

  • How is pocket infinity not balanced? Now it's just useless. The charge up time really hampered it in the first place. Now...
