Update 1.1.2 will bring changes to how ammunition works in the Crucible

Bungie has stated, in their weekly update, that they are changing some things about ammunition works in the Crucible. Make Special ammo a more precious resource in Crucible Further solidify Heavy ammo’s role in the Crucible Further improve the balance of encounters by limiting high-damage weapons Special Ammo will spawn less frequently, it will take longer to pick up, there will be less crates located on the map, and the bricks you find will provide you with less ammo. I’ll save the stats and gory details for the Patch Notes. A player who opens a green crate without waiting for their teammates will deny them of Special Ammo. To prevent this, we raised the drop radius for teammates by a considerable amount. Raising the drop radius helped players understand the importance of pulling a crate as soon as they could, while ensuring that nearby teammates would still benefit from the drop. We’ve already seen some great plays come from last second pulls to deny enemies and supply allies.
