What are your opinions on the new weapon tuning update?
Edit: we're trending people. Keep up the conversation!

Edited by Combo164: 7/17/2015 3:15:19 AMI like the net buff for thorn in PvE, keeping it from being destroyed completely in whatever use it had. I do hate the black hammer nerf and the fact that high rof ARs aren't getting any special attention still. Hopefully the accuracy and range nerf won't make them worse....

I find Bungie is just like Riot the makers of League of Legends, in that both of them don't have a balance team, at least a competent balance team. I'm going to assume that Bungie's team never takes into future accounts and focus on the here and now. They really should sit down and gather statistics first and see what options they could go down, do they nerf one weapon? or do they re-design some of the exotics and make them better? These are two of the possible routes they can take, but they don't. If they want to win people back for the TTK they need to actually sit the -blam!- down and bash heads together to find the true problem in the weapon tuning.
-
I have to say the people at bungie are a big group of dumb fuks! Ruining weapons that people play the game to acquire...why bother now?!
-
Not sure if I missed it but when is the rebalance coming into effect?
-
I will use my gally until it is the worst weapon in the game, and after that.
-
Black Hammer Sucks-GHorn may now be shit depending on how much they NERFED it.
-
Have i understood the thorn nerf correctly the damage over time will be cut by 1/3 to put it at 5 per tick but now they can stack up to 5 times cos that seems even worse if it stacks then wont 2 head shots still kill no rate of fire nerf so same time to kill. Like i said not sure im understanding it properly.

R.I.P. Black Hammer December 9th 2014 - July 16th 2015 It's power was stripped by the money whore that is known as Bungie.
-
Sucks about black hammer and Gally but oh well. I'm sure in 3 months people will be saying "the Suros needs to be nerfed, hard light is OP" blah blah blah! Let's see how it goes I guess
-
Did anything actually improve in this game? Or did they just nerf everything that was even the slightest good
-
Gjallahorn didn't need a Nerf. Other rockets just need a PvE boost. Black hammer is now utterly useless. Any six round sniper is a better option without the bonus ammo. Icebreaker Nerf is confusing and seems whole unnecessary. Thorn got nerfed... sideways? Nechrochasm is now nechrogasm. Hard light is the new thorn. Tlw is finally balanced. Finally. The nlb is going to wreck shop PvE. Auto rifles are now this games smg. Pulse rifles are it's assault rifle. SHOTGUNS Nerfed YES! Fusions? Less a range Nerf more a nuke. Hand cannons are overall less dominant, but still viable. Scouts are, like always, boned by the lack of long range maps. Suros will rise from the ashes a vindicated Phoenix and rain down fiery vengeance on its foes. Deej has claimed his first soul and made that pour being his apprentice. Tacos are still ridiculously OP.

I love it. So many butthurt thorntards it's not even funny. Me and my MIDA can't wait for TTK.

Edited by cito1109: 7/17/2015 1:05:58 AMSo black hammer is a useless pos now, great. Only 3 in the mag and if you have 0 in reserve whitenail is useless. I'd rather use another sniper and reload now. Gj bungie Don't fix the crappy servers though, or ban cheaters, or matchmaking, just keep nerfing weapons that never needed nerfs.
-
They should have left icebreaker, black hammer, ghorn, and shotgun PvE damage. Personally I think they -blam!-ed up more then they fixed
-
A lot to take in that's for sure. Did this go live already?
-
I do not agree with black hammer and icebreaker nerfs! I kind of agree with last word regarding the hipfire/ads amount of damage glitch but other than that that does not need nerf!!
-
This is just silly, some ppl bitch about 1 or 2 guns so they change everything. This is going to be an on going thing forever in this game. Can't wait for all the new threads screaming for whatever gun to get nerfed after this patch

Edited by JasperGTR: 7/17/2015 1:09:56 AMAnd this - Bungie - is why your lack of planning in vault space is frustrating. I enjoy this game, but constantly changing the effects of each type of weapon, and the perks available from one quarter to another is why I pad my vault and characters. To limit this is to purposely penalize those who put in time to gain the ability to look for "the right combination" for a particular situation - only to learn that a month from now - it was pointless. It also took maybe dismantling those weapons (for parts) that are now desireable, but at the time we had no room for them all. If you change the boundaries constantly of how we can conduct our preparation, shouldn't you also change the boundaries to permit adjustments and evolution of the players as well? To come out with 100's of combinations of dozens of new weapons, then give us 16 extra spots to use in our storage... something in my math doesn't scale well.

Well I guess I just wasted an eitheric light on my black hammer
-
Well they finally did it. Hope all you whiners are happy now you won't have to actually put in time to do anything worthwhile in this game. Nerfing all of this stuff bc people are jerks and say/post stupid and mean comments/requirements. Obviously they don't have anyone to play with in the first place if they did they wouldn't be posting requirements on a forum. These are the people you choose to cater your game for? What about all of us that don't spend every moment on a forum or trolling someone's stats and profile? Those of us that chose Destiny over Call of Doodie bc of these cool differences? What are we gonna get out of all of this mess you're creating? #bungie #help
-
I have finally read from Bungie exactly what I needed to read to justify my canceling my 3 TTK preorders and initiating the uninstall option. Been fun but this is no longer the game I bought last year.
-
I quit. PvP changes are rock solid. Great. Black Hammer and Gjallarhorn changes? Goodbye.
-
I'm open minded to all the changes, excited to see how it all plays out
-
I think for the most part the changes are great. It's looking that hard light will be the new go to pvp weapon. It's perks seem to negate all the AR downsides. A bit sad about black hammer but its not that big of a deal, it was pretty OP and the change is necessary.
-
All I wanted was an auto rifle buff, I didn't really think Thorn or TLW needed a nerf.
-
RIP black hammer
