Polk Games asks the Question, is destiny's Multiplayer Broken? Are Shotguns, and the thorn overpowered? What is the fix?

The Marathon Duo queue test ends as Bungie confirms its return in Season 2, with new experimental playlists already on the way.
Its neat especially since not everyone might have two friends playing it. Makes it more personal to go at in duos.
It's 2026 and basic match making features in MP games are still being drip fed to an audience that still gets excited over said basic feature being implemented.

Darryl Linington from Notebookcheck.net writes: "Early hands-on time with Marathon, spanning roughly 10 hours, points to a distinctive extraction shooter with strong shell-based class design, layered faction progression, surreal presentation, and a dense UI that still needs smoothing out."
Almost 16,000 reviews on Steam currently has the game sitting on a very positive 90% Not sure if it has the player numbers but those who are playing seem to be enjoying themselves.
The game is really really bad. So generic boring and lifeless. UI is terrible. Bad and slow gameplay. Not sure who gives the go ahead for these games. Insane all that money companies just throw away for no reason. Nobody a asking for these games

Chance Glasco, one of the co-founders of Infinity Ward and creators of the Call of Duty franchise, has claimed that Activision once pressured the studio to include an invasion of Israel by Iran.
Complain about crucible (PVP) being broken proceed to embed a video about a PVE strike.
Shotguns are really the only viable secondary weapon as they can kill in one shot. If the shot doesn't kill them a quick melee follow up will.
Sniping is another option but being that you have to sit and wait for enemies means you wont have as many chances to kill and you also aren't helping out with the objectives of the match.
Fusion rifles are just garbage now.
Thorn? Yeah its OP, but i use auto rifles and do very well. Especially Suros and Hard Light.
all destiny players and cod players play with the same rules and weapons..if you have low ping atleast less than 65ms and still cant beat them learn the pattern players uses and try to do some damage....or enjoy the awesome pve with some friends...
Every Destiny pub game you see Thorns, Last Word, and whatever high impact shotgun with Shot package and a range perk.
That's it. There's no variety in Destiny crucible...for months now. They nerfed ARs to the point where they're a joke, shotguns have these broken perks that can be rolled onto them, and exotic Handcannons are kings. Pulse rifles make a cameo appearance here or there, but in all honesty, a couple of them are broken too!
Destiny is a medium health game, you shouldn't be OHK by a shotgun from stupid ranges. You shouldn't be 2 shotted by handcannons in a matter of .5 seconds, you shouldn't be 2 bursted by a Pulse rifle. The whole meta of crucible has gone to shite. I stopped playing Destiny, as all I used to play was PvP.
It's so 1 dimensional now, it's boring. I'm tired of seeing handcannons, and HAVING to use one to stay competitive. Hard to believe these are the same people that made Halo. SMH
