I use scout rifle in PvP. Only AR I would use is the Suros. Scout rifle requires accuracy. 3 headshots and they are done at pretty much any range, it's not the gun, it's you.

It's difficult to get head shots in any FPS other than TF2 (I think it's just me though...)

I just want primary weapons to have a little more versatility, that's all.

I'm really tired of using my auto rifle for pretty much every situation because they're the most effective.

They are versatile,but not for everyone. Scout rifles, in my opinion, are better for people who are really good snipers and can get head shots on the go. If you want a mix between the two if you can't aim or what-not, Id go with a pulse rifle. Auto rifles are good but not the best, a couple well-placed hand cannon shots can trump an auto rifle easily. Hand cannons are kinda like scout rifles, except built for more close combat situations than the latter.

It all depends on your taste really. If your into trickshots and quick scoping but need a challenge or a higher rate of fire than a typical sniper rifle, go for the Scout Rifle.

Unable to get head shots but still want the damage? Pulse rifles are the way to go.

Can't aim for crap or like spraying people down? Auto rifles.

Wanna feel like Clint Eastwood mixed with Han Solo? Hand cannons.

Weird examples there, I know, they may not even be accurate to you guys, but that's my view of it.

I would say hand cannons are much more fun for trick shots haha. The scout rifle just feels boring to use until you get a headshot kill with it from a mile away.

And I find destiny headshots pretty damn easy. Especially if you are trying to go for them. They come almost naturally, it must be due to some autoaim specs

Destiny has heaps of auto aim, and the headboxes are huge. You can get headshots even if the bullet just misses the head.  

I'm mad at myself. I picked the red upgrade drive for the rare sparrow and it just looks like the default color streak. I should have definitely chosen blue.

Then theres the exotic The Last Word........ Its a fullly automatic hand cannon  

So pretty much after I went 26-9, I played another game and went 7-16...

And the other team pretty much all had Suros Regimes...

...I guess that's enough PVP for tonight.

I heard its gonna get a nerf. Not even buying. Doesn't even sound like a fun gun to use, exotics should be fun- like the icebreaker, patience and time, last word, thorn, universal remote, ext  

Yes, the sooner the better...

That gun trumps even the almighty Vex Mythoclast...

I hear its about as good as the shadow price. The shadow price is my primary, and it is very accurate and good distance and damage. Sounds about the same, so i feel lucky  

I have Shadow Price too, been taking a break from Auto Rifles in general. That's why I'm using The Devil You Know Hand Cannon.

But now I don't seem to have a choice since in getting sniped by Suros...

Thought Auto Rifles were nerfed already...

Yea suros regime, 47-11 with it without any perks
Team still lost, i had a kd of 4, person who came secound had a kd of 0.8

Kind of annoyed suros got resold, not because I already had it (I bought it yesterday) but because I want to see new guns. I don't like how armamanetium, red death and suros have all been resold, and pretty much three weeks in a row. All I want is skullfort, lastword and monte carlo for looks.

Did nightfall 3 times, pain in the ass I hope I don't see this strike for like 5 weeks, first two gave me the same legendary guns I already have which is pretty bs since I only own 5 legendary guns and out of all the possible legendary gun drops I get 2 of the same.
3rd time I got the truth which i'm not sure about. Personally truth was ranked the bottom in my exotic want list but some people say it's really good which idk about since I can't see where tracking will come in useful since most pvp maps are so small and I'm good at hitting people without tracking at long distance anyway. Besides the gjallahorn for bosses I see exotic heavy weapons as a wasted spot

This is exactly why I didn't wait for the red one to show up. But thing is for me i bought the blue one and got the legendary sparrow from the raid :/ so now its useless to me ( didnt had a rare sparrow to begin with) was going to hand it to any of my alts but i already the one from the raid on those too.  

I want a new type of weapon introduced. Not a complete new genre, but unique weapons that maybe resemble fallen and hive weapons. Like a grenade launcher for a heavy weapon. Or some sort of electricity zapper style CC weapon. Or a melee weapon to take up a heavy weapon slot (like the brute hammer from halo). You guys have to agree- this stuff would be really freakin cool.

I also expect to see more subclasses in the future. The way they designed the menu makes me think they will.

Also, I earned the truth today in the nightfall strike (one of the easiest nightfalls, but yes we did cheese the boss, that part would had been impossible) . My teamate earned a patience and time. I was really jealous- but happy I got my first exotic weapon.
