still got 3 hours to go.....was three hours an hour ago....

 

[Slammin_Hammon]

Don't like what they did to Aggressive Ballistics and Perfect Balance. The Last Word really sounds useless now. Thorn looks like it barely got nerfed outside of the Hand Cannon changes.

Everything else looks fine. I'm glad to see Bastion is back in Control.

Yeah it hurts my heart. What gun will I use now. The nerf it already was getting was enough, but with those perks nerfed it will be pretty average probably.

[TP-DK]

Bastion, First Light, and Skyshock have been added to the core Control playlist with Pikes and Interceptors disabled

Not sure how I feel about this. I have missed First Light, but they should lower the score required to win for these maps as they always take much longer to finish.

 

[Twilight Gap]

Those weapon perk nerfs though. Got damn.

Yea that really killed the momentum.

 

[E92 M3]

GG aggressive ballistics




Yup! And now it's 45%.... damnit man... c'mon!

Too many nerfs

Hand cannons got absolutely wrecked!

Really upset about the shotty nerf. They were so much fun.

 

[rNilla]

Hmm

Spine of Young Ahamkara
Bonus to Tripmine grenade duration increased
Gain a second grenade charge for Tripmine grenade

 

[SgtCobra]

Hwhat did they do to fusion rifles. Horrible needing, they were already trash

I don't unserstand it either, it's like they're completely out of the loop. I bet the Pocket Infinity is now really shitty, the weapon must be totally useless now.

what's the nerf?

 

[Deku Tree]

Shotguns going back to being useless for PvE again. Back to Fusion rifles I guess.

 

[BondFancy]

how did they nerf blink? that info out yet?

Blink movement ability activation delay increased by 0.07 seconds (0.26 seconds to 0.33 seconds)

Blink movement ability visuals now changed to better telegraphing direction: clearer activation FX and trail FX

 

[FyreWulff]

Wtf did anyone notice that they didn't mention the PS exclusive weapons coming to Xbox?

Are they coming or not?

they are, on the 15th. They'll be added to the patches notes then

 

[lt519]

Increased delay between blinks and a better FX to highlight trail and path of the blink. Subtle but not a huge nerf to the general populace. May affect the meta in high end play though.

Didn't see anything about this either. Hopefully since they made the crucible maps open.

[eFKac]

You can't be serious.

Well maybe I was just shit at it, sure it could hit up to 3 targets and the radius was good, but the damage was already low, it would barely take out a full shield in PVP, there are way more deadly grenades out there.

 

[Namikaze1]

The AR pvE buff marks the dawn of a new age.

No kidding. Jeebus.

The list of year 1 perks getting nerfed is BRUTAL.

Well, I should reserve use of that word for what happened to shotguns in PvE. 45%?!? That's practically back to vanilla levels.

Why, Bungie? They were so fun in PvE and a good risk/reward given how dangerous melee range is in PvE.

R.I.P. Shotguns in PVE

I thought they were only going to reduce precision damage on shotguns, but they have reduced overall damage by 45% as well.

2.0 patch notes: https://www.bungie.net/7_Destiny-Update---09082015/en/News/News?aid=13474

The things I like:
-All Stable (low recoil) Pulse Rifles (i.e., Hopscotch Pilgrim) now use "Medium" Rate-of-Fire base stats
-Base Damage increased slightly for "Medium" to "High" Rate-of-Fire Scout Rifles. Small adjustment, does not change shots-per-kill in PVP against another Guardian with full health
-Shot Package perk reduces the cone spread by 20% (was 50%)
-Players now are required to participate in the boss fights to be eligible for end-of-activity loot.
-Fixed an issue where the incident for completing a strike (i.e., earning the "Strikes Introduction" grimoire card) was not triggering in Strike playlists
-Eris reputation can now be earned weekly by killing bosses in the Crota’s End raid, or through new methods to be discovered in The Taken King’s new destination
-Eris’ reputation is no longer capped at Rank 4, and players will receive reward packages for Rank increases
-Year 1 Platform-exclusive maps (The Timekeeper, Exodus Blue) are now available to all Destiny players
-Placing in the top 3 in Rumble playlists now counts as a win for Quest Step purposes
-Bastion, First Light, and Skyshock have been added to the core Control playlist with Pikes and Interceptors disabled
-Cinematics can now be skipped
-Show/Hide Helmet options now also applies to the Character Screen
-Improved damage validation systems to reduce the effectiveness of players with extreme lag

Placing in the top 3 in Rumble playlists now counts as a win

Yes!!!!

for Quest Step purposes

Fuck! Why?!

It'll apply for Grimoire progress as well.

RIP
