I disagreed, and here's why: All this stupid bull$hit about who 'earned' their guns would reach a whole new level of autism the likes of which have never been seen on the internet. Let's say you carried the freaking team through the raid. You never went down, and you were always there to revive your fireteam when they would wipe. You held gates open solo, used the relic most effectively whenever you picked it up, generally kicked ass and looked awesome doing it. But... Being such a good team-player, you often weren't able to devote your full attention to the boss. Killing Supplicants and Hobgoblins and Minotaurs, and generally cleaning up baddies and keeping them from killing your team while they hit Atheon, took up a good deal of your time. Make no mistake, without you, your team would have never made it to the end. You had the most kills by far, and you kept everyone alive. You are the strongest player, just not the one with the most damage on the boss. Imagine the magnitude 12 toxic $hitstorm that would ensue when RNGesus smiled on you and dropped Mythoclast in your lap. Your mic and inbox, as well as the forum, would be filled with messages a little like this: "Wow! You didn't even do hardly any damage to the boss! How come this fu¢kin' scrublord gets Mytho, when I got the last shot on Atheon? Fu¢k that guy!" Etcetera, etcetera, ad nauseum, etcetera. This is a bad idea. Everyone thinks they want this, but if Bungie were ever to implement such a feature, there would be no end to the bit¢hing. It would only serve to further toxify this already vitriolic community.

  • It's a great idea to get players to step up their game and not be lazy.

  • People already pull this "29+ only" and "MUST have..." crap. This would just open another avenue for elitism. Something this game does not need.

  • Must have is stupid, lvl 29+ is spot on just because it is often times very very very difficult for a twenty eight to survive enemies spamming them twice above their level

  • okay just because you mentioned the mythoclast, please remember there is no end screen for VoG. Secondly, all these people bitching can be referred to all your other mission stats that do show such as k/d, number of revives, kills, etc. There is already a mag 12 toxic shitxtorm anytime any decent weapon drops. I did hard raid with a guy who died almost immediately on confluxes, he got hawkmoon =_= You can bet we were all pissed but it happens. In short this is all just to point out that just because people will incessantly bitch (they already do) is not a good reason why I shouldn't be able to see how much damage I did. Especially since this could seriously help me decide with guns are most effective so I can do better on the next run.

  • You can already see which guns do more damage based on the little values that pop up anytime you hit something. If you've been paying any attention, you don't need stat tracking to tell you which gun is more effective. You should know that just by using different guns and making observations. Each weapon has its own stat card for reference that should be equally helpful in making an informed decision on which to use. The argument that its a tool for [i]you[/i] to use to determine how [i]you [/i]should play is invalid. The vault doesn't have an end screen, no. But it does tell everyone in the in-game messages near the lower left corner what you get. The text is even color coded. No one is going to miss bright yellow lettering saying you got the Mythoclast. I would assume that if these stats were to be placed anywhere, they would most likely be placed on an end screen, which would mean Bungie would have to fix it so the vault had one. If they did, it would probably display your endgame rewards along with the stats for the session. Logically, people would see you got the MC and look at your damage ratio on the boss and lose their $hit. Alternatively, though more likely, the stats would appear somewhere on the web. In that case, no one would see them unless they went digging for them, and this whole argument is a moot point anyway. Your argument that there is no end screen is irrelevant. And stating the obvious, generally repeating what I've already stated about the community being toxic, doesn't detract from my statement that such a feature is useless beyond creating more butthurt.

  • First off, go -blam!- yourself with your asshole attitude Secondly, yes I see all the damage values but it's not as helpful as you make it out to be. Seeing total damage values so that I can better determine if my icebreaker, hezen vengeance, or super good advice can deal more damage in the allotted time would be beneficial. And yes I know everyone gets an alert when MC drops, but my point stays valid on this one point that without an endscreen it doesn't matter if the total damage values show or not. If MC drops nobody knows if you "deserve it" not regardless of whether the damage values showed or not. And lastly, who seriously -blam!-ing cares whether people bitch or not?! How -blam!-ing old are you that you really care if people use "mean words" or not

How -blam!-ing old are you that you really care if people use "mean words" or not[/quote] Go ahead and rage more. You're just proving my point that this community is populated largely by fu¢kwits and bad kids. You can't refute my point with anything even resembling a logical response, so you instead regurgitate things that have already been stated, insert irrelevant bull$hit, and then dismiss whatever else you can't argue with and tell me to fu¢k off for the trouble. Good for you. That's using your head. Get mad at someone for expressing their opinion in a poll asking for everyone's opinions on something totally hypothetical. Don't bother to actually pay attention to the original post, or anything I actually said, because your opinion is just so fu¢king right. Some of us care that people are $hit-stains mainly because we're tired of them fu¢king whining and begging for stupid $hit that makes even legitimate retards fu¢king cringe. This is a useless feature. In theory its neat, but in practice it's just going to be something else for the elitist fu¢ktards to hang onto. And if you can't tell the basic difference in damage between weapons, even with all the graphs and numerical values and other resources available, even at a casual glance, you've got to be some special kind of stupid. In conclusion, take your $hitty arguments and your $hitty attitude and fu¢k yourself. Twice. Qu33rbait.

  • Apparently you're the raging illiterate idiot who makes this community a terrible place. You want "valid points" 1) I tell you to -blam!- off not for your opinion (which is still retarded btw) but because of the way you presented it which was in the fashion of an asshole, to quote "You can already see which guns do more damage based on the little values that pop up anytime you hit something. If you've been paying any attention, you don't need stat tracking to tell you which gun is more effective" or "The argument that its a tool for you to use to determine how you should play is invalid." 2) You're whole argument is based on the theory that people will bitch about it. By this logic we should get rid of the forums because people bitch on them. We should get rid of exotics in general because people bitch about others getting them, or how they got them etc. We shouldn't even have difficultly levels or levels in general because hell, people bitch about them being too hard or easy. 3) Oh right! you mentioned elitist attitude. Well coming from a guy who isn't lvl 30 and has completed 4 raids I wouldn't expect you to understand why people demand you be a certain level or have certain equipment but the long and short of it is, We font feel like spending all day in the raid carrying your scrub ass through it. Don't like the attitude, find other people to play with! I hear there's millions of people signing on every day. Or since you're so hung up on extra features, there's a mute button so you can block people, which I will be doing to you after I post this 4) Yes this is me regurgitating the same argument you're so tired of hearing but if you take your head out of your ass and actually think about the words I'm typing it might make sense this time. You can pull all the data from cards, and stats and reports you want all day long. But its still all theoretical data, you have to make approximations for best and worst case scenarios. my HMG does X damage times X rounds at X fire rate, factor in the stability for body/head shot ratio and it should be this, whereas my sniper does x times x at x. But these will always be approximations! Actual battle data however is more reliable because -gasp- its what actually happened! 5) And this is my personal favorite because of the sheer hypocrisy of it, once again to quote you "Good for you. That's using your head. Get mad at someone for expressing their opinion in a poll asking for everyone's opinions on something totally hypothetical." followed shortly by "Some of us care that people are $hit-stains mainly because we're tired of them fu¢king whining and begging for stupid $hit that makes even legitimate retards fu¢king cringe." Sounds to me like you're getting mad because people are expressing their opinions just because you dont agree with it. So to quote you one last time " you've got to be some special kind of stupid. In conclusion, take your $hitty arguments and your $hitty attitude and fu¢k yourself. Twice. Qu33rbait."

I wear an alternate set for aesthetic reasons. I don't constantly play the raid because I can't trust randoms not to be fu¢king awful. I play with the same group every week, and we don't always finish because of time constraints. I'm not going to continue arguing with you because it's honestly the dumbest fu¢king circle jerk I've ever had to deal with on this website. You win. Enjoy your evening fu¢kface.
