I made this comic over a year ago July 25, 2015 to be exact. Because well AR's had been completely ruined as they had just been NERFED into the ground.
All this time they have still remained utter garbage, even though people complained very vocally then, and very vocally now.
Sadly it's never going to change and here's why.
There's this silly little thing in game design called U.I and UX. Which means "User interface" and User Experience"
UI = everything the player touches including keyboards, menu's etc
UX= How enjoyable it is reacting to these things.
Simply it's like a car, the Ui = the steering wheel, brake pedal etc. Ux = How responsive the steering feels.
Current belief held by Bungie and other Devs is that when you increase the UI you automatically increase the UX which equals a funner more pleasurable game.
Bungie achieves increasing the UI, simply by making you pull the trigger faster and more often, It's forcing you to interact with controller more. More so then if you simply held down the trigger.
So in Bungies warped little minds making you pull the trigger like crazy on a scout or HC, is making you a much more happy player.
Bungie isn't the only one who's doing this. For example BF1. You see tons of medics in the game because both Assault, and Heavy machine gun is very inaccurate and slightly nerfed. They want you to play more where you have to interact with the controller more.
PS
..I also had entered that cartoon in the Creations page when it first came out, but they refused it. Fascists!
