19 months in, I'm still skeptical of Destiny's 3-gun system. (Destiny)

Your post is obviously PvP related, but we need to talk about PvE as well.

I liked special weapons. They shouldn't go anywhere.

In terms of PvP, I think simply staying the course plus more conscientious map design would help a lot. I never saw specials as a huge problem until recently when snipers got more popular. Part of the problem is that scope flinch is actually fake. You always still aim at the middle of your screen. I think a great change would be to make the shot always go to your reticle.

PvE is a bit different. What if special weapons were the only weapons with elemental? What if all heavy and primaries were kinetic? Suddenly fusions rifles and shotguns would get a lot more useful.

Yeah, It was a very Crucible-centric post. The current system feels far better suited to PvE than PvP.
