Bungie has decided cowardice is preferable to competence. By deciding not to directly punish pvp heavy ammo cheaters they have actively slapped everyone else in the face by cancelling pvp events.
We are left with little recourse, or are we?
If you know someone abusing this cheat, kick them off of your raid and pvp teams. If DTR is tracking as much a they appear to be I wish they would start filtering for rocket and machine gun kills before heavy drops. This might let them even label the cheaters so the rest of us can identify them. (bare in mind using a sword Hilt it is technically possible to get a heavy kill with no ammo)
My point is bungie, if you don't take punitive measures against cheaters, expect the destiny community as a whole to start rejecting them when they are discovered. I don't care who they are or what pathetic little excuse they use I'm not playing with people who cheat in this manner.
To clarify I don't care about the still functional 3 of coins glitch, I don't care about the wall in sepiks prime that can be jumped through, even pushing templar and Atheon off (fixed now), all victimless cheats. However if someone is actively making it so others have a significantly worse time, they are not playing with me. Infact, expect me to message their clan mates about their cheating, maybe if these guys can't play with anyone on destiny anymore they will just give up and go cheat in some other game.

Someone is extra salty.

Ubisoft banned for pve infractions and people pushed back so hard they reversed their decision. No one getting banned for shadow shot WAS a big complaint I saw on the forums btw. People freaked out but at the same time the glitch could be used by accident meaning it was impossible to tell who did so intentionally. People are litterally getting heavy less than a minute in and ruining the whole match. You can't do that by accident.

Post like this make me realize more and more why ubisoft banned exploiters. It's because -blam!-heads like this would post on the forums if it were PVP related.

Edited by CIKiller: 5/22/2016 4:48:40 PMUbisoft was BANNING people for using an exploit in one of the new missions or something in the division, even if they were trying it out once and never again. There's a reason bungie doesn't ban forever if you use exploits

I think it's a little overboard honestly. No one called for mass deportation of those who abused nightstalker glitch a while ago. Now, the definently should not get off Scott free, maybe a few days ban from crucible, but nothing serious. This is not the players fault, it's bungies for not noticing this beforehand.

Ps. Bungie you cultivated a reputation with halo. It was "screw with us and we will litterally enter your game and hammer you out of it." so no one will be upset with you if you bring that fancy axe Saladin has stored somewhere out and use it to ban people for life, it will be par for the course.
