BNG: Why did you remove Materials for Marks?
When I 1st read the patch notes I was excited to see the addition of Marks for Upgrade Materials. Finally I would have something else to spend my excess Vanguard marks on. I always like when games offer you options. If you needed extra marks, you could exchange some materials, now if you need extra materials you could trade in some marks.
Of course, that excitement was quickly dashed when I discovered that you REPLACED the (Materials for Marks) with the (Marks for Materials).
Why? Do you guys have some personal grudge against choices and options? Why does everything have to be [b]one way OR the other[/b]. Why won't you provide multiple options instead of limiting us to just one? Why can't you let your players decide what they prefer to do instead of forcing everything to be all or nothing?
Instead of letting people choose if they want to play PvP or PvE, you seem to be trying to push people into both. * Why not just let people enjoy the parts of Destiny they love without punishing them for it? *
By replacing the material exchange, people have no choice but to run the crucible if they want to purchase anything from the faction vendors. Where before, if you didn't want to run the crucible, you could farm some materials, trade them in for marks, than spend them on the faction vendors.
Well, not anymore...
I just don't understand.
* Why couldn't you just remove the (reputation/glimmer) gains and leave the option to trade materials for marks? At an exchange rate of 5 to 1, would being able to swap one type of Mark for another really have been so bad? *
* You provided so many great new ways to aquire extra materials, than took away the only other feature they could be used for. *

I wouldn't even mind 50:1 so long as it isn't counted in the weekly limit.

it would be great if they bring back the materials for marks choice.PvE all the way. i rather play cod or even titanfall before i play crucible.

6 Replieswell its all about people enjoying the game and a lot of people many thousands who play the game , don't like the crucible, I being one them . I have farmed thousands of materials in order to exchange them for crucible marks etc... I am so disappointed that you cannot exchange them now for marks . so this is forcing people to enter the crucible to get the marks , that's not what the game is about forcing people to do something they do not enjoy . TOTALL UNPHAPPY WITH THIS NEW CHANGE Aaaaarrrgggghhhhh .........

Personally I believe that you shouldn't be able to trade materials for marks, it was nice while it lasted and I traded a lot for the marks but it should be the way it is now. If you need crucible marks play crucible, if you need vanguard play strikes. Simple. The only thing I could see being good for trading mats for would be rep for different factions at a 1 to 1 or 1 to 5 ratio. Ex. 1 spin metal gives for 5 rep for whoever your trading with. If not rep, at least some ammo synths or glimmer...just give us something to trade our mats for bungie!

bump, come on bungie listen to your customers

100% agree. I have thousands of excess planetary resources and I'm loathe to just discard them (but I do). I simply don't have the inventory/vault space to hold them. Seriously? I never complain about the weird decisions in this game but this is one of those small but irksome ones that gets to me.

Sadly, I don't think they're ever bringing it back. I've already discard thousands of planetary materials. And now that we get planetary materials from public events and the chest with the wolf packs this problem is getting worse. Also, our gear doesn't hardly use any planetary materials for upgrades. Seriously, what the -blam!-ing -blam!- where these -blam!-ing -blam!-ers thinking when they -blam!-ing -blam!-ed up this -blam!-ing shit.

Looks like Bungie listened to their PvE customers.... [spoiler]... and then totally frickin' ignored us.[/spoiler] The four words in the game description that should be removed due to blatent lies are "The choice is yours" and should be replaced with "THE CHOICE IS BUNGIES!" This game could have been epic. Then Bungie sold their soul to Activision.
-
Would be nice to have this back. Ya'know, seeing as we have to grind a full faction rank for a commendation to buy anything good.
-
I agree, i dont want to play PVP, i just want to be able to trade materials for crucible marks. Please fix this bungie! If you don't i will not buy future expansions.

Edited by GAMERASHELL: 1/25/2015 6:44:32 PMAgreed! I'm sitting on 500 spin metal because of this change. I have nothing to spend this material on. It's not hard to get the materials just playing so there was really no reason to change it except for the whining people who didn't want to play but still get stuff. Same people who complain about free gifts I'm sure. #mats4marks
-
Yeah. Just bring back the exchange system and cap it weekly. Let people play how they want to play?

Bump this mutha -blam!-a back to life! Bump it! You know you want to! Bring this shit back mutha luvas.

3 RepliesFirst off the auto rifles nerf was what players wanted and now they want the auto rifles buffed(which they need), so technically bungie gave the players what they wanted, second, bungie gave more vault space and people who complain there isn't enough is just hoarding weapons, you got 30 primary weapon slots between 3 characters, 30 for special and 30 for heavy weapons, plus another 36 more weapons allowed in the vault, who has 126 weapons that they use regularly?
