Well, I'm not saying that the nerfs are the things boxing us in. I should have worded my post better. Patching the loot caves & trying to prevent players from farming was primarily what I meant.
Even still, if I prefer a certain weapon type then I shouldn't feel like I'm being forced to play with another nor should I have to change my playstyle in a game that claims we can play it our way. We can in small instances but not for the most part.
There are others who've stated their grievances much better than I have, but basically I'd like my AR to have its power for PvE since its what I play most. Especially since the majors, ultras & bosses absorb so much damage on a solo run, even more so when in a fireteam. Nerfing so far has hurt the pve community because the pvp babies cry louder.

That last line I can agree with. Given Bungie's inexperience (read:none) with a pve metagame, and being used to responding to a primarily pvp playerbase, I can see them initially overreacting to pvp imbalance since they always like to have balanced pvp(iron banner being wierd was a part of this). Eventually they'll figure the pve side out.

Yeah, I'm trying my absolute best to try & step back to think things out a bit. Initially I got swept up in the tide of angry rant posts about this latest patch. If we all take a look back, (which I know will not happen) this is a long term game. It's plan is to have a very long shelf life & we are just barely a month into it. A game such as this hasn't been done for consoles so to Bungie this is uncharted water for them & there are bound to be a ton of mistakes. They're trying to mesh together gamers of two different genres (fps & mmo, feel free to add in anymore genres if you feel it fits) & there will always be those on either side who are unhappy with something. Mostly dealing with their feels & how they think the other side is being catered to. My point being is that since this isn't your run of the mill typical linear game, we need to give it years worth of time for just the base of correct issues to settle in then the corrections for the mistakes made. Instead of all the lashing out & threats of never buying or trusting Bungie again, there should be more constructive criticism. I can listen to the things you may disagree with me on because you're not trying to troll my every sentence, belittle me because of my game stats or because I haven't done Raid X on whatever difficulty setting hundreds of times. If more of the forum users actually spoke instead of bïtch out at Bungie &/or other users, things might actually get done around here a lot more smoothly. I apologize for going way off topic & tossing brick after brick of text at you.
