I don't usually have a big problem with LFG. You just need to be very, very scrutinizing. That being said, I joined a group last night that was 90% fine except for this 11 year old that was annoying as poo poo.

Yeah the shotgun spectrum only works in extremes.
You either have that dude who's like a loving ninja, blinking all over the place and constantly up your rear end, or you get the dude who loses all reasoning and tries to close distance on you from halfway across the map while only sprinting, cause they never jump at you.

Eerily similar to the other spectrum most shotgun users are on.

Technically yes, but it's unlikely anyone would care. Unless it turned into a PS4 exclusive map which would be loving hilarious.

Can't really copyright the placement of boxes anyways. Just name the new map Bloody Gorge and make the bases squares instead of octagons and what is Microsoft going to do?

Worse comes to worse, call it an 'homage' and carry on.

Seriously though I hope Bungie redesigns button assignments in this game. I shifted to puppetteer then I swapped triangle with circle on the ps4 OS just to have weapon swap on circle. The problem is that now I have to remember that "triangle" is go back and "circle" is weapon upgrade as well.

Sounds like you need another teammate who isn't a salty babby. If playing CS has taught me anything it's that chemistry and positivity is absolutely crucial to do well in a game so centered around map control and comms.

Yes

Bad Juju has String of Curses which also increases your super but it doesn't say anything about minions and it has a lot of text about reloading.

It also isn't black and gold and doesn't have the word (ADEPT) on it, which you would think might be a red flag in identifying whether or not a gun is Adept.

I'm guessing what happened was his friend got a Trials helm from the lighthouse with IS and he mistook it as his friend reading his gun perk.

This is also possible.

And if I remember right Halo 3 was a major engine rewrite. Destiny is a fork of Halo 2, and is also a major rewrite of that code base. But Destiny obviously went in a different direction.

Do you mind elaborating? From my perspective (40 hunter for like 2 months, 25 warlock for like 2 seconds) Titan seems like it's far and away the best class. It has absolutely the best grenade in the game, the best mobility and the best armor. It also has access to a superb roaming super and solid supers all around.

T-rex arms, skip nades are broke, no bolt grenades, no blink, pre-ttk defender and striker were poo poo compared to the alternatives, shoulder charge doesn't work against somebody who's paying attention, t-rex arms a second time.

I don't think you know what the word elaborate means. I guess you're just used to insulting people so they stop talking :( Sorry.

If you aren't using a shotgun, what are you using? A sniper rifle? Dome him or bodyshot melee. Trade at the worst. Fusion? Unless you're getting blindsided through a corner it's almost better than a shotgun. Sidearm? You asked for it. Primaries might be in a tighter spot depending on how far away he is when you notice him, but that's what quickdraw is for.

By your logic shotties should be 110% worthless because no one should ever get close enough to use it. Your response is acting like I'm saying Shoulder Charge is unstoppable. It's not. It's just extremely easy to use. Think about point B on Black Shield. If you're capping solo because your teammates are lit and a Titan comes charging over the wall: what are you supposed to do? If you PlanC fusion you'll probably get 2 bolts into him before you die and the rest disappear. If you shotty you maybe trade. If you're sniping you'll never get time for the melee after you body him. It's good. It's ok to admit that it's good. I'm not saying it's broken or that Titans are as a whole. But altogether Titans seem to be in an impeccable place right now.

Any shotgun currently being used has a higher range than shoulder charge, is instant, can be freely aimed and used from any position, and has much better followup potential.

I'm not saying Shoulder Charge is bad. But it's not like you're automatically hosed if you see a Titan right in front of you.

As far as I can tell, none of the colorblind settings change the color of the radar. In fact, as far as I can tell the only things they do change are the color of the item rarities, ally/enemy indicators and ultra bar color.
