How about just increasing the drop rate for ammo? Anyone care to tell me why this is a worse idea than bringing back Ammo Synths?
Just to mention, Heavy Ammo Synths in D1 are the only synth people talk about when playing because they're the only ones that mattered, so when you bring up a topic about Ammo Synths in general, people are going to assume you mean Power Synths. So while you're right about not mentioning power ammo, you also didn't mention primary/elemental ammo either, which leads to people's back lash about power ammo.
Firstly, there are some ammo bugs that make it so certain players don't have ammo drops or not enough to keep the fight going. Yes, bugs need to be fixed. But if they aren't bugs like some of the community thinks they are, then Bungie should increase the drop rate of ammo. From my experience, when the ammo drops are working as intended, as long as you're not missing most of your shots on aliens or not just aiming for body shots on them, you should never run out of ammo.
Secondly, there are reasons as the why we don't have ammo synths anymore. Power Ammo drops more frequently than it's counterpart (Heavy Ammo) did in Destiny 1. Every major (enemies with a yellow health bar) drops Power ammo upon dying these days, so there's no need for Power Ammo Synths. As for the reasons mentioned in my first point, Primary and Elemental Synths aren't need either if you're shooting your target and not wasting ammo. Another reason we don't have synths is because of the waste of space it'd take in the game; our vaults and personal inventory.
The only way I see ammo synths coming back would be if Bungie made ammo packs rarely drop, (which would make sense considering how none of the aliens use our guns or ammunition) forcing us to spend our unused glimmer on them so we can be battle ready with a bunch of synths on our Guardians. This would slow down game play though and I don't think the community as a whole would appreciate this.
Just to restate my main point: I'm fine with a small increase to ammo drops, but not fine with ammo synths being brought back.
