I agree with the sentiment. Much like my own, the marketing of the idea could use some work lol.

[quote]361 days a year anyone can: Weapons: use whatever whenever PVP: unless your in comp, use whatever, play how you like Subclasses: all great and pretty damn useable in all content PVE:,so easy you can do it mostly all solo, no challenge whatsoever, which can be fun at times Twice a year the best players in the world have 1 thing to look forward to, obsess about, grind towards, and feel proud about. Please just give us that. The game is so easy, raids can be soloed, dungeons easily soloed, enemy’s have no health, master or GM content isn’t really that hard either. And you know what, I hate that, but I accept it because it’s what YOU want, you can have it for 99.3% of the year. But please please please for that other 0.7% of the year, just let us have contest mode. Don’t tell bungie to “make it easier” cause the whole -blam!- game is easier. You have eternity minus 2 days to play the raid easily. We get no rewards that at some point you won’t get asides from pride, an emblem, and some triumphs, that’s not a whole lot. So why do we do it? Because games nowadays are not that difficult, so when the highest level of gamers are given literally 2 days every 6 months to take all that practice and time investment, and put it towards something, please just leave us alone. Don’t complain on twitter or forums, don’t say it was too hard, don’t be that guy. Either: get good and give it a try, sit back and watch, or shut up. Only 4,500 teams completed contest, if you tried and didn’t complete contest, good for trying. But don’t blame bungie that you didn’t beat it. I am curious too see where most teams got stuck or gave up. But this is a serious thing that should be taken seriously, people take off work, school, and is important to so many people. So when we get something like RON that is so damn easy, it feels like it’s a waist of our time when we could have had a challenge instead. TLDR: leave elitest alone, we have 4 days a year, either get good or shut up[/quote] Shut up? Really... Blocked for being a ..... fill in your own blank.

People in this game love handouts, I doubt they will leave others alone, who actually wants to do things themselves. But from what I heard and saw Bungie wants to make The Final Shape raid even harder and Crota was a success for them, so good news.

It’s really nice to see more High end casual end players like yourself sticking up for the big guys

Everything that you wrote made me swing from feeling ok with the 4 day contest mode to telling all of you to take a hike. Look at your last line and tell me that insulting everyone you feel is beneath you was a wise argument.

You make solid points. I enjoyed day 1 crota. It was a challenge. But fun.

Appologies for the poor article, main points good but I am so damn tired out from this weekend and raiding for like 30 hours straight lol

Feel free to ignore the chuckleheads that complain about contest mode. Everyone else does.
