The real Crux of the sniper issue... (Destiny)

I feel like Bungie has painted themselves into a bit of a corner with this system. The only way to make it remotely fair is to make sure everyone has it all the time, or make it extremely limited like Heavy ammo.

I almost suggested this, but then what about side arms & fusion rifles? I feel that my sniper ammo goes a long way. I can use a sniper almost all game exclusively. The same (almost) goes with shotgun ammo. I will run out if I'm exclusively running shottys & we're not controlling most/all of the secondary ammo crates. In fact, when running shottys I'm very aware of when secondary ammo drops and will try to deny the opposing team their secondary so I can shoot them in the face with it.

I would like Bungie to take a look at making secondary ammo more scarce & more difficult for 1 team to hog it all.
