Husband+Dad+Gamer = Forced Casual.

When your one (ONE) strange coin away from buying your first exotic and your wife and kids say "let's watch Captain America: The Winter Soldier Blu-Ray!" Outside response: Suuure! [spoiler]Inside response: Noooooooooooooooooooooo!!![/spoiler] P.S. Special shout out to ALL the whiners who got the loot caves and Queens Wrath Legendary gear NERFED. Thanks for slowing my 6 inch a hour march to Lvl 30 to A CRAWL.

  • My concerns with this hot fix are they took away ways to acquire needed items before fixing the jacked up loot / engram system. Also, their defense of Cryptard is nuts. If they wanted engrams to convey they could turn into any level, they shouldn't have given them the colors and names that differentiated. Instead of making it blue and calling it rare or purple and calling it legendary, since it can turn into anything from green to yellow, they should have just made all engrams turd brown and called them meh or just engram. I don't see the need to get folks hopes up on purpose. Also, nerfing the engram rate after a hard wipe (your whole team dies in a dark zone and you get reset to the last checkpoint) in strikes absolutely SUCKS for a casual. Yes, I understand folks were deliberately dying in places to exploit rapid engram drops, but their solution is a double edge sword that penalizes casual players. Now if your whole team dies honestly, you get your engram rate nerfed. Makes you want to play it safe and not pick hard strikes. If you want to put sidewalks between buildings the best way to do it is to make a yard of green grass between the buildings first. The ruts people put in the grass will show you where to pour the cement. The fact that folks were committing suicide on purpose in strikes or shooting hours on end into a cave to farm engrams speaks VOLUMES about the loot / reward system. Bungie billed this game as one that even a person with limited time could enjoy. ORLY? A nightfall strike and raid are level locked behind a level 26 door and with the current system in place you have to be a hard core PvP crucible loving hard core player with hours to play every day. They need to fix the reward system / economy / loot drops.
