Nerf(TM) Guns in Tower - Shoot the Cryptarch in the face!

Hell yeah!

No, too disruptive.

Dumb idea overall.

Okay, so someone posted this as a comment in the "10 joke items" thread, but I thought it deserved it's own thread and poll to see if this could gain enough popularity. If this thread dies off, then "message received." If people like the idea, maybe Bungie will see it and consider it for implementation. Situation: The tower is boring, and so much less than social. I understand some sort of chat/lfg may be coming down the pipe, but that has been addressed in other threads. Climbing trees, while perhaps satisfying at the time, is far from entertaining. Solution: Nerf gun wars in the tower! Naturally, I see the copyright issues (as evidenced by the (TM) appended in the title), and I understand it's not realistic for Bungie to approach another company to obtain rights for an in-game novelty. The clear way ahead on this is to not make them look exactly like Nerf guns/use their colors. But to keep the end state in line with the concept, they should look like plastic toy guns with bright colors. Implementation: 1. Add a Nerf gun vendor (or add the function to another vendor, not sure which) that sells a specific array of these harmless weapons. Nerf Chain Gun - 18,000g, Nerf Hand Cannon - 8,000g, Nerf Assault Rifle - 10,000g. Throwing in rocket launchers and sniper rifles is probably getting way too in depth in my opinion. **Instead of glimmer, an in-game purchase could be implemented too. Personally, I don't care as long as I see at least some people running around popping each other at the tower. 2. Opt-in, Opt-out - Players can shoot at anyone with the Nerf guns, but only those with Nerf guns equipped will be stuck with the suction cups. If someone doesn't want to be involved, they won't be walking around looking like a foam porcupine. 3. Use of Nerf guns doesn't have to be every day as to appease more serious players. It could be restricted to one week per month, one day per week, etc. You could also implement mini-game competitions and novelty prizes that don't affect PvP/PvE. Well, I think that's all I have, vote and let me know what you think. Comments encouraged.
