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. Are you happy with only being able to do nightfall/weekly heroic/raid once a week? Are you okay with having a limited number of bounties per day and a daily heroic? Does it feel too much like a mobile gaming model? Are you unable to play for days on end, but have lots of free time a couple of days per week and would like to play as much as possible on those days? 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!

  • I don't like the timed restrictions simply because they are a false attempt to limit progression, much like currency caps. If there was a limit on these events, say 3 times a week, [i]per account[/i], I would support it. If the goal is to limit my ability to get, for example, raid gear, then limit everyone equally. The system is unequal as it caters to NEETs who can spend 2 days leveling a guardian up to 30, running the raid, getting gear, deleting the character, then rinsing and repeating. While us working folk who have jobs or school and can only play on nights and weekends can't afford that kind of grind time. So the system in practice doesn't work as a real cap, only an artificial one that hurts the normal player, the productive member of society. That's a bad system. Either make it unlimited runs for everyone, or make a 3x a week cap. Maybe I chose to run that 3 times on my titan or once on each of the classes. But lock it to my game account (PSN or XBL) so that it's fair for everyone, regardless of our schedules for when we can play.

    • Not like like them, but understand the necessity. I can grind this game at my own pace for any piece of gear, and often when I find it there is brief satisfaction then on to the next thing. The grind is not exciting. Now with properly done events (although in this game, events need major tuning) in a game, events are a way to trigger a lot of excitement. The problem here is that it can feel like Destiny is setting the grind bar too high - hardcores will take the day off and wrap up Rank 5 day one or two. Middle of the road players will have to spend time each night all week to get to 5, especially if doing multiple characters. Casuals will have to grind like hell on the one or two days they actually have time to play just to get one character to 5. I have no problem with the event lasting a week - better than a weekend where some might miss out. But that doesn't mean that the bar has to be set with the expectation that we need to playing that event each and every day the whole week long. Make it faster. So what if I can finish a character to level 5 by Wednesday night? I can do another, or go back to the main game. A casual can log on and maybe over the course of a weekend evening do the same. The hardcores might get hurt by this, but they'd probably keep playing for the chance at the rare drops anyways. Food for thought, if anyone in power reads this.

    • They won't change it. These restrictions artificially extend the life of the game.

      • I hate when the bounties are ones I do not like doing, and end up wasting a day by not doing them. I've gotten sick of the heroic modifier missions. I already do Vanguard strikes. Doing them again with heroic, is very repetitive and the reward is minuscule. The points and rewards are practically worthless. I can easily do 8-10 bounties a day if they are ones within reason. But I am sick of the 6 patrols on ______ and the heroic modifier ones, Give me variety or more than 10!

      • I think it should be you get 3 goes across your characters- do one character 3 times or all once Marks should be exchangeable between characters Should be 300 mark limit across characters

        • I currently have quite a bit of free time, so I'm able to do everything. However, I feel really bad for those who are unable to do all these timed events and may miss them - particularly the dailies and Xur. Or, I feel bad for those who may miss a week of raiding or nightfall/weekly heroic due to some event, but had enough free time to do them twice the week before. It also seems to be too much like mobile gaming where you can only do so much at a time so that you don't get too far and have to keep playing - that way you can never get everything done. It artificially spaces you out.
