Really, it’s just a mad dash for power weapons in every game. Then when the team gets it, they do the following, ALWAYS THE FOLLOWING: Spam grenades, spam rockets/shotgun/sword, spam with sniper, really. There’s no fun when the maps are seriously unbalanced against one team.
I should know, I’m on the team that has to hide while the other team wastes their power ammo. Really, pre TU, the reason that they were pretty high was because people could just spam it and hope for luck that they hit something. Now in ZB, they aim and they can still hold on to it. You know how hard it is to play a game when you spawn on the other side of the map with “power weapons” while the other team gets the real power weapons? Pretty hard.
Please, if you can’t nerf the power of the power weapons, please 343i, consider doing the following:
-Make the maps symmetrical, Bungie failed hard on that part.
-Lower the ammo for power weapons, people just spam it, why not make the game fair for people who spawn on the other side with nothing for them?
-Make a playlist that has no power weapons, like SWAT, where aiming is basically the main thing people should do instead of spamming and getting splash damage.
-Lower the blast radius of the grenade. Unless these grenades are like Fallout 3’s mini nukes, which were stated in the Reach Beta, but the power was never really toned down. Neither was the radius.
-Make the spawn time a LOT longer. All someone has to do is waste the power ammo, wait about 60 seconds, drop the empty weapon and another will spawn. Can you make it so it’ll be about 3-5 minutes instead of one minute?
You took out bloom and made Armor Lock pretty weak with the TU, the map placement and power weapons need tweaking as well, would it be possible to try and make the game a bit fairer?
