Lol I played a doubles skirmish against two kids with ES and final round recently...you could hear them firing off two shots all game long, running away any time they missed so they could reload, fire two more shots off, and take another shot. My team won, but damn was it a boring, tedious match.
This would be fixed, however, if they did the one thing that most players have been asking for for a while now: less special ammo. If the ammo was limited, they might think twice before wasting a ton of shots (especially since they sucked at sniping, lol). It would also limit the FR spam shots and shotgun scrubs.

Just imagine if they were good snipers tho.

This comment was from pre-patch, so if these guys were great snipers, they would have been able to wallbang one shot us all game long, which is cheap as hell. Limited ammo should have less of an effect on excellent snipers than on terrible ones, as the best snipers can make their limited shots count. Thus, I still support limited special ammo.

Camping the ammo boxes will put a dent in their gameplan.

You can't camp every single one, and the team just needs to be present when they pop an ammo box once and they all have more special ammo. This is the only fps I've ever played where OHK weapons are available at all times to all players, regardless of map or gametype.

Invectiveeee

Just reduce it's regen rate and it becomes an exotic more worthy of being called an exotic. Aside from full auto and a quick fire rate, Invective isn't especially useful...I would use FV, Felwinter's lie or Two to the Morgue before Invective. But if special ammo was limited, Invective's ammo regen perk would make it truly exotic.

True, but then it would be an extremely OP weapon in the crucible if you didn't have to constantly pick up ammo boxes, but I do agree with you about Felwinters Lie and Two to the Morgue

So long as the regen wasn't too fast, it probably wouldn't be gamebreaking. The range isn't too far, so at least you can dodge it. I agree though, that if the current regen rate were used it would quickly turn into the only shotgun used in Crucible (same thing with Icebreaker if current regen rates stayed the same).
