I'm a little unhappy with the proportion of power weapon clips here. My experience with power weapons during the beta was that the average player (assuming he's doing what's best for the team) almost NEVER sees power ammo - once a game, or less. I'd rather see a montage that showed the sort of damage *I* might be doing when playing crucible (i.e. mostly regular weapons).

That's kind of like being unhappy that your burger doesn't look like the one in the commercial. Or learning the car in the commercial is 75% more expensive the model on the lot. They are going to present the best product possible knowing it isn't representative of the average/standard experience.

That would be fair, if I hadn't been eating the D1 burger every night for the past 3 years.

Our different experiences are funny though. There were plenty of times where power ammo was up and I ran all the way across the map to pick it up, or games where I felt like I was hogging it and would stand there and wait to see if anyone else would come for it...but nobody would come.

That's totally weird. I'm at a loss to explain it, even. When I was playing with friends, I left heavy for folks who were better than I was with it. When I was playing alone, there were always other teammates standing around the purple, waiting for it to drop - a couple of times I skipped it not because I wasn't willing to steal it from them, but because I didn't want anyone to get 4 kills just by dropping a Nova Bomb on our power spawn.
