I think the "disturb the remains" thing they put in the cave is funny.

I actually randomly saw one of my irl friends at the cave when i went there with a couple of my other irl buddies. It was neat.

Well put.

[quote]Dear Bungie, Today it hit me all of the sudden; Destiny is spiraling down when it comes to the social aspect of the game. The reason? You guys stopped us from farming at THE cave in the Cosmodrome. It seems like ages ago: me standing atop the rock with an auto-rifle in my hands. Aiming down the sight and pulling the trigger over and over and over. Confetti-shots lid up the screen as if i was looking at the Xmas-tree in JFK, friends shouting when the color purple suddenly appeared and the booing for whoever dared to stand too close to the cave. More than often you would get invites by lone-wolfs who were shooting in the dark as well. People who wanted to chat a lil while shooting bullets into oblivion, and now and again you would keep in touch with those peeps. My friendslist has become much more expanded because of the cave, i got the latest bungie-gossip, destiny-tips-and-tricks and even real life travel tips from cities abroad. It felt like a tavern to me bungie, and ill bet a lot of people agree. We dont need a square to sit down, dance or point at each other. We want to shoot mindlessly into a cave while making new friends...and even have a (albeit) small chance for some loot. (not talking about legendary or exotic loot) Of course the looting wasnt the way it was supposed to go, but you can figure something out right? nerf the drop-rate or something? But please give us our Tavern back. Bring back the Farming Cave. Give us back our social gathering spot where we can stand in line and shoot into a cave...but be happy together. The silence in this game is deafening!![/quote] I miss loot cave. it was a fun thing to do wild waiting for friends to get on.

What is truly sad is the fact that people found spending hours of bordom sitting in one spot occasionally pulling the trigger preferable to playing the game, this is less a complaint at players and more at the repetative and frustrating game. This game has great potential but unless they actually do something about it players will leave in droves and the game will fail hard. FYI bungie just repeating same strikes /missions for bounties on a harder difficulty for near identical loot does not contitute new content.

It's sad that the biggest social hub for this game ended up being an unintentional exploit of the senseless loot system. They can't get much right.

There are still farming spots... but you have to find them, or rather 'how' to use them. Frankly after having the spots effectively killed by normal means many of us that know of the spots are NOT going to spread it around. Spend some time in the game and look... All they did was make it less easy... well for the novice. If you understand patterns, and areas you'll figure it out.

I didnt use it much but for trolling users who used it but it did make for fun interactions with people bring it back

I never used the loot cave, as it didn't fit my play style personally, but I think it should've stayed. It was a social thing. There are other caves, though.

Its a social game so naturally when people are enjoying themselves hanging out shooting the cave having fun, yep have to take that away

I made like 12 friends in the loot cave Good times with them too -sigh- R.I.P LOOT CAVE

I would like to see a dedicated shooting range in the tower, built as the loot cave, and it drops engrams that decode into glimmer or ether seed equivalents. The legendary engrams could decode into ascendant materials since the new patch will give them a new legendary rank.

you have a great point, I miss that ol cave I met two of my friends there... if they do bring it back just nerf it hard. but not bad enough to make people not go

They can't have the loot cave if they plan to majorly buff loot in a few days.
