Iron Banner is Making You All Suffer FOMO and It's Very Apparent
So many people complaining about the grind for things that will be invalid in two weeks time anyway.
If you don't like the grind, show them [u]by not playing it.[/u]

I don't think it's FOMO as much as instant gratification.

I don’t believe in FOMO and I played the -blam!- outta some IB!

1 ReplyDistorting the stats via mercy farming has a much higher chance of forcing bungie to make improvements than simply not playing.

1 ReplyIB comes back and your rep progress will stay. Hell, they even didn't reset DoE at the beginning of this season.

1 ReplyLooks like you didn’t grind enough to get all the triumphs completed on your Iron Banner seal. Better luck next time.

6 RepliesNot me lol. I played the matches to complete the pinnacles, got the repulser brace drop on Burden and got a couple volt shot rolls on the SG. I don’t care about guilding Iron Lord. Maybe I’ll chase the shader next IB. I don’t mind the new mode at all and it’s always fun to pop Titan bubbles with a Nova Bomb. I think people need to gain a better perspective with games. Play, have fun and it’s ok to not have everything that’s available.

Yeah, the grind for me actually demotivated me and made me play less than I had planned to originally. Maybe if the mode was better balanced, and the connection quality at least what it is in Control, I might have stuck with it for more matches. But I learned a long time ago that I’m not going to force myself to play an activity for a prolonged period of time if I’m not having fun. Or worse than that I am loathing the experience. I don’t want to resent a game I find enjoyment in. So I just recognize there are some parts of it that aren’t for me, or that there are times I need to take a break.

You can say this about anything in the game. Obviously, that would make sense. I'm sure people -blam!- don't want to play are not playing. Others are suffering I assume mostly for the one time unlock of the armor for transmogs and the shader. If they're like me, they'll complete it now and not play during the next IB. Hoping the numbers tank hard next time it comes into rotation.

I just want the shader. It’s a really unique one.

5 RepliesYes, apathy really is the key here. None of it matters, especially on a long enough timeline. No one is hating that they missed out on Iron Banner gear in D1.
