Technically, people don't [b] have to use new weapons, they are free to use the older weaker ones if they want, so there.[/b] Besides, they are going to make you want to use new ones,if you stick to your older ones, you will want to try the stronger ones when you notice your difficulty, also there are new powers and abilities on the various manufacrtured weapons that will differ, so there. The SUROS, Hakke, and Omilon weapons are not present in the older game and expansions, so what do you know, manufature incentives to try new stuff. Seems like Bungie is m[b]aking you want to use new weapons[/b] You don't have to, but anywhere outside of the regular crucible, they will suffer. Besides, [i]did it ever occur to everyone worried that perhaps there could be something better with these manufatured weapons? You will never be able to reforge nor customize the older stuff to the extent these new ones can, they may be held back by these older abilities.[/i] No did this fly over your head like many others? Try something new, you may like it. I've had my fill of Found Verdict and my Hunger of Crota, I love them, but aside from my exotics, well I'm looking at the SUROS and Hakke weapons, I want to see what they can do. Both points sunk, next arguement.
