I sometimes use Y1 weapons (PvP) just because i like them. It doesn't mean that i don't know how to use the Y2 weapons..
Yesterday i was playing crimson and i used the thorn just because i haven't played with it in quite a while and to complete the bounty where u have to make kills with different weapons. We were on round three when i got a message from the opponents saying, scrub no skill thornbitch...
I was like wtf dude get a fking life.. first it's for the bounty and second so what if i use thorn (he was playing icebreaker)... It takes no skill?? The weapon doesn't fire by itself.. U still need to aim and shoot and fking hit the target.. It's not like the weapons is aiming itself and killing sh*t while i just run circles...
The bit*hing part of this community needs to stfu and get a life.. Nobody ever complained when they were killing shit with the gjallarhorn that it's too OP... What do people wanna see, Ban of year one weapons and the by far OP weapons now?? Then what?? There will always be weapons better then other weapons. Fking deal with it or ask Bungie to delete all the weapons but one in PvP. That way no weapon will be OP... No fking wonder we had so many OP weapons during certain months.

1999 vs 325 in the (i'll admit biased) poll. I have been trying some Y1 weapons in the trials last weekend and i've come across a lot of players doing the same. Ice breaker was a favorite and of course Thorn. When looking at the map I still picked my Mida, since is I believe more effective then the Thorn because most games were played on range. Equipping a sidearm and switching to a sniper was also popular. I also have to a admit we had some encouters that were really laggy... They just didn't die... Image u Fist of havok someone with the titan and they just run away like u slided in istead of using ur super...
Hope u guys had fun with the Y1 weapons in Crimson Doubles, I know I had a blast.. Enjoy your 320 ghosts guys and I can't wait on more info about the large dlc later this year and the sequal of destiny in 2017!!!
IT'S finally confirmed!! (just wonder if we will have to say goodbye forever to our atm Y1 weapons) What do you guys think/speculate??

Use whatever you want. Thorn will get you hate mail. I used it year one. But year 2 I prefer the doctrine. Just something about spraying people down and melting them at mid to close range is so fun.
-
I agree but thorn is like hell and my god
-
I took preadyths revenge and Vision of confluence in to crucible the other day... RIP xbox messages
-
I should pull out my btrd for some doubles
-
Don't mind breaking out some old year 1 weapons in certain playlists but Thorn does promote bad gunplay in its current state, 3 shot kill no matter where you hit is a little stupid.
-
People forgot how we had to struggle for that thorn bounty instead of buying engrams for it.
-
Wow someone complaining about people complaining. I've lost faith now.

I didn't read because OP's poll is suuuuuuuuper biased. Therefore I can only expect the same from the post.
-
thorn is fun to use I don't see the big deal. Maybe its alittle OP but its not game breaking. people need to lighten up or start playing plants vs zombies before they have a heart attack And ice breaker regens ammo. Why would you not at least consider using it? especially at a time like this. I used it a couple times but I have fun with other weapons.
-
Although I don't play PVP that much and I prefer PVE, I do play a few rounds of the Crucible every now and then. I enjoy using Shadow Price (Persistence, Hammer Forged, and Feeding Frenzy) and The Comedian (Luck in the Chamber) so much in Year 1, I decided to use them in whenever I play the Crucible in Year 2. I even began using Lord of Wolves because I like that weapon as well.
-
Little kids just cry because they can't learn to adapt and counter. Using Thorn doesn't automatically make you a crucible god and anyone with skill will be able to shut you down no problem.
-
I have no idea why he would be complaining. I mean, you played like 14 games of doubles and had a positive k/d twice. What does thorn have to do with anything?
-
I'm gonna bust out the scholar this weekend.. Just headhunt in Crimson doubles. Worth coming in to wipe the first guy and annihilate the second..
-
Made much rage with Grim Citizen, Epitaph 2261, and Ghally.
-
Agreed, dusted off a couple things this week, including the icebreaker thorn, dregs promise, nechrocasm and jelly horn every heavy round ;)
-
-
if you use a year one weapon your a scrub...i dare you to use it in iron banner or trials...you wont and you dont dare too...they are crutch's in regular crucible
-
Because the ones who usually complain stent around for year one.
-
It's Destiny. This is the hub for the complainers. Embrace it, and OP, stop complaining about complainers.
-
The people who complain were probably not around for year 1 to be able to acquire some of the best guns ever made. I was using thorn a little this week as well as last word. Every now and then I bring the vex into crucible and people get shocked by it. Most year 1 people all have these guns still saved as collector items.

Kid uses Thorn, gets mad when people laugh at him for using Thorn, then whines about them laughing at him. /thread

I'm perfectly fine with people using Y1 weapons, I'll kill with and die to them all the same. Game is supposed to be fun, and we should be allowed to bring along our favorite gear for the whole journey. Hell, I kinda wish Bungie would bring forth all the gear from Y1 just to keep the variety in the game. Only thing that irks me is people switching from Ice Breaker to their reg just to grab ammo. Yes it's a glitch/bug/annoyance in the game, but anyone who uses it is a very sad person in my opinion. Learn to use your primaries and take control of a special ammo box. Or if you can't stand having no special, head over to the 6v6 playlist. Or keep cheesing, it's your game, but expect no respect from likeminded thinkers like me and I can't wait until Bungie removes it so I can see all the whiners on the forums.
-
I have a receipt for this game... I'll play with whatever weapons I choose. Y1 forevaaaaaa!
-
Some times when I feel like it I use my devil you know patients and time and the swarm all great weapons but alas they are stuck in year one
-
All guns are viable, the quicker the kill the better, not used the Thorn yet, but Invective is a beast !!!
