FOUR GUNS INSTEAD OF THREE

[cmmp.0157]

there are 4 ammo types: (white, green, orange, purple), i think we should have 4 weapons instead of needing to choose between 3 out of the 4 we avalable. YES OR NO?

[Byoooon]

no.
I don't think gun itself won make any difference.
We need more tactics other than shooting and blast your skill.

i didn't find the weapons to be boring to shoot and after a while i was able to managed ammo shortage (except on bosses). I simply find it weird to only be able to choose 3 out of 4 ammo types. If there were a dozen (too much?) ammo types I would understand in order to strategize depending on the enemy we are fighting

2 normal and a pistol should have been the play. or give me a melee weapon to play around with.

You can open your inventory and swap out weapons whenever you want. No need for an additional weapon slot.

[Sussyfras]

No.

I could see a handgun or sword being a secondary but we still only need one primary with extra ammo, 3 guns is a tad harder to manage more so with more then 2 types of ammo

This is true.
Remember that certain mods can increase your ammo amount.
Buuuuut they should increase the drop for that. Its almost never.

this take is worse then wanting fromsoft games to have an easy mode.

2 gun slots would be perfect, just don't need a 3rd at all. Most people will use their abilities and maybe 1 gun with a secondary just in case. Even then a simple slottable weapon slot called the "Case" which boosts your other weapon slots with extra ammo while not being able to swap to it could work too, I find myself running out of ammo more often then I feel I should be.

There are mods that will xfer 1 times per some amount of special when picked up they are costly on the gun though, like 16 mod power. Quite worth it power weaps IMO.

people run out of ammo? just run a general rounds gun and ull fill from one drop.

Warframe people fill us in how this compares to that game.

The ammo seems color coded to how Destiny does it:
White is Primary < Green is Special < Purple is Power

There is also a meta concept in Destiny called double special. Where you run two green ammo weapons, this requiring very precise gameplay to not run out of ammo. So with all that, the brown/orange ammo seems to be a sort of half step between Primary and Special ammo.

To how they should change the game. They need to do a lot to it. Most of the guns are boring to shoot. Combat is unresponsive in general, plague of all 3rd person games. So what guns we have now will probably have very little to do with the guns we have in 6 months or a year. There will be an end-game meta. It will have pain points and high points. Changing anything before we know what works and what needs fixing is just wasted dev time.

There are four and they don't correlate to type of weapon like destiny. You can have a power rifle and an impact LMG.

No

I just feel like the extra ammo is more important then 3 guns, more so as I have started to play with Ultimate Gley, but that could be because of submachine guns
