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.

The speed of the game is really what helped keep snipers at bay way back when, and the ability to rapidly close distances. That has been rendered continually less effective as time goes on.
