Are you happy with the current currency system?

I wonder if Bungie will respond to straightforward polling, so I will be posting a number of simple polls. Add your comments about how you think things should be fixed and why, or why not. We currently have many different currencies - glimmer, marks, commendations, strange coins... Is this too much? Would you like to see it simplified? Why or why not? Let Bungie know! Edit: Some people really like these polls and would like to see them trending. Perhaps Bungie will see them then and respond to them in some way? Maybe wishful thinking.. Anyways, I have added links to the other polls so that you can vote on all of them!

Also, if you have any other polls that are specifically directed as feedback to Bungie, please post them in the comments!

  • Its convoluted…purposely. They're progression gates mainly to keep you from leveling too fast, thus exposing how lacking the content is.

  • Not very thrilled it's called "glimmer" (does jazz hands).

  • The amount of currencies we have is fine; I've played games with nearly four times the amount Destiny has. I understand that it can be confusing for new players at first. Bungie should add what they are used for on the tool tips in addition to the flavor text they have on there (e.g. Ascendant materials - used as a component to upgrade powerful weapons/armor). The other big complaint with currencies/materials is the space they take up. What they need to do is completely remove the materials section from the inventory, make everything account wide, and visible in a new inventory tab with all of our currencies, materials and rep. This would fix a lot of the issues people are having with the vault as well.

  • Reposted: [quote]It seems fractured. I understand the theory behind it, but then it keeps changing. When HoW comes out, are we going to get a third type (technically 4th) of upgrade material? Something that only drops in the raid, only useable on Raid armor? What happens when commendations become too common place? Are we also going to have to obtain a forth requirement towards purchasing vendor gear? (remember, you need the rep level). We have 4 destination resources, 3 class exclusive resources, the 1 weapon resource, the 1 glimmer boost turned currency resource, 5 shard resources, 2 marks resources, 2 types of commendation resources, technically 6 reputation resources (plus 2 more for events seen to date), plus glimmer, plus motes, plus strange coins, plus a handful of one off resources (looking at the likes of embalming orbs) - [B]around 30 different "currencies", or purchase requirements[/B]. THAT is a convoluted economy. [/quote]

  • I hit level 3 in Crucible and didn't get any commendations. This is so annoying just to buy a better primary weapon. Now I'm stuck with a rare until this new currency system goes away or I finally get the 1 Crucible Commendation just to get a better gun. Thanks, Bungie.

  • Bump I would actually like it to be more complex. Not a universal currency, but different planets I would think should have different valuables besides materials.

  • I don't think there are too many currencies but i don't agree with most factions being Crucible only and the addition of the "rank up commendation". I'll never understand the latter, just so stupid.

  • I'm overall happy with the system, so I voted yes. It's just as fast as it was before to get vendor gear. All it did was stop people from getting all the gear day 1 of the dlc unless they were smart enough to save their packages. the only thing I would like to see changed is raising the glimmer cap.
