I guess that means.... (Destiny)

The only way to be super ultra mega competitive is to disable supers and abilities.

Also gun perks.

Also armor perks.

All players start each mach with the armor they have on when they are initially found by their ghost at the start of the game.

BR Starts for everyone.

This is what people like Schooly have wanted, but I think the game would be much more boring. There's nothing uncompetitive about supers and different weapons. Both sides have those tools to use to their advantage. Of course, not having access to guns because of a fucking stupid RNG based acquisition system is anti-competitive, but if everybody could select from the same pool of guns there'd be nothing wrong with that.

I know and that is exactly what I DON'T want it to be. My post is in jest. It would be boring as hell. Halo was at it's best for me when there wasn't one gun to rule them all, like the BR.

I know CE had THE hand cannon to rule them all, but picking up a Plasma Rifle and slowing down an opponent to get the smack down kill was niiiiice. Eventually, the alien weapons played second fiddle to the human ones. This is a whole different conversation, but what I'm trying to get at is that in Destiny, there are several weapons that dominate in the PvP space for sure, but at least there isn't ONE that is better than all the rest. (Everyone has their opinion naturally, but for the most part you don't see EVERY player using say, the same vendor handcannon etc)

I think back to quake and unreal and there were iconic weapons for sure, but I never gravitated to one all the time for every situation. Of course I had favorites, but I could put them down and pick something else.

I'll say it like this: Having Destiny play with stripped skills and supers is just like only playing Smash Bros on Final Destination, no items.

Boring.

If people want to play one thing over and over and over again, that would be great for custom gam- oh wait. We don't have those.Yet? Then again, Destiny MP as it is NOW is the same thing over and over again sooooo...
