How should Bungie alter the way special ammo works in PvP? (Destiny)
PVP Ammunition – The Crucible team wants to change the way ammo crates dictate the flow of a battle.
This is the fifth and final point Deej set up in his BWU forecast a few weeks ago, and we'll probably hear about it on Thursday.
Personally, I would love to see the PvP game place a bigger emphasis on primary weapons. As it is, Special ammo crates are littered around the battlefield like candy, so you're rarely without a stocked-up Shotgun/Sniper/Fusion rifle.
Snipers are the biggest reason I had issues with First Light and Bastion. As the game currently is, Shotguns are incredibly dominant, even after two nerfs.
Preferably, Ammo for these weapons will be limited to the same degree that Heavy is- because that's what they are: Power weapons. Things your team would fight to hold the spawn of in Halo.
Or, maybe you spawn into a new match with a full reserve, and that reserve is persistent through deaths, but that's all the ammo you get- so you have to decide when it's most crucial to spend it (this would also make exotics like Invective and Ice Breaker even more valuable).
What's everyone's preferences/predictions?
