Feel like the rug just got pulled out from under me (Destiny)

These changes could make 1/2 the guns in my vault trash. They've been pushing us to collect field scout, final round, and hand cannons, and now they say "Wait, we take that back! The guns you spent hours upon hours acquiring are too powerful." Hmm, maybe I should be happy because now I have no reason to save these LDRs and Spears. At the same time, ugh!

They've been pushing us into Final Round and Field Scout so hard that they took it out of the game to encourage us chasing them!

I think the FR nerf was pretty telegraphed. I can't believe anyone is upset or sirprised by that their borderline-cheating perk has been nerfed. Or rather, I can, but I didn't expect it here on DBO. Final Round always felt like it was intended to be a primarily PvE perk, and I guess Bungie felt the same because now it's gone back to that.

Field Scout is a little more sad, but I think I have 3 weapons with it that I'll really miss it on (LDR, Swarm, Jolder's Hammer), and I kind understand why the latter two would have it removed, even if FS really fits in with the spirit of LMGs. Most of the time there are other perks I use instead (Explosive Rounds, Increased Stability, Tripod, High Caliber Rounds). I still feel like Snipers should be able to roll FS, but we don't even know how much of a nerf it will be yet, and no matter what at least it won't be Casket Mag *shudder*.
