Upcoming Engram System Too Easy?

Destiny is a fun game and even I think Bungie could have done a few things better... ok, maybe a lot of things better. Yes, I think the game had more potential, but I'm not gonna whine too much since it's still the best game I've played in a long while. But the thing that has been bothering the most recently is how much others are whining about the more trivial things. On top of that Bungie is giving in to the players demands. What's made that obvious is Bungie's imminent adjustment of the engram system. Yes, it could use some changes but what it doesn't need is easier loot. Am I the only one that doesn't mind that items be hard to get? In fact, I think they're too easy to get. Yea, that's right. I got an exotic weapon bounty recently that had me finish five strikes without dying. Way too easy, I was dissapointed. But I was glad to find out there was not only one task but more, and when I saw what the second task was I thought "this is amazing a 25 K/D spread thats almost impossible!" to my utter dissapointment the task was not what I thought and the goal was too easy to get to over the spread of a few games. Not only that, but I've also seen too many people with the exact same exotic equipment including my own. The fun about having legendary and exotic items be hard to get is to have the feeling that you earned them; not seemingly random rewards in the Crucible, not simple and easy tasks, not random drops, and certainly not fruits from the farm. What I expected from Bungie was that they would actually praise your hard work with the more rare equipment. Well, not only was I dissapointed in that aspect, but now Bungie is giving in to player demand to make the Cryptacrch "fair" when rewarding you for an engram, making the more rare items easier to obtain. I do give Bungie proper respect for attempting to properly evacuate the farmers from the battlefield, and also about being incredible about staying in touch with the players, listening to their woes, providing constant updates, etc. However, I think it would be nice if Bungie continued to make a great game by addressing players concerns without giving in to them. And since I almost never post my own concerns here are some things I think Bungie could do to make us all happy: 1. Create a system where items are earned instead of received randomly (Without giving away the requirements). 2. Keep up the jaw-dropping artwork with new content. 3. Have badges earned during Crucible visible in the post-game report. 4. Create more diversity in the Legendary gear compared to the more common items. 5. More detailed content overall. 6. Do something with the unenterable entrances in every map (I think and hope Bungie has a plan for these already). 7. Keep up the constant evacuation of farmers. 8. More class diversity. (Fill up the empty subclass slot in every class). 9. Keep up that constant dedication and hard work that goes into maintaining the game (Such as weapon balance). 10. Any way to make the players more unique is great, as long as they earn their uniqueness. Anyways, this is all I have to say. For you guys on the forum: make yourselves heard. And For Bungie: Keep Up the Hard Work, You Have Created an Amazing Game!

  • Do we know that legendaries and exotics will be easier to get after the patch? Given that the Cryptarch will be less random and that any existing legendary engrams will change to blue after the patch, I expect that the difficulty in acquiring the best engrams may be going up to compensate.
