Don't worry guardians, they're renaming MW cores. All of our problems have been solved!

I got a better idea then cores for infusion, how about give us back our original d1 weapon and armor upgrade system you say our choices should be meaningful ummm they are digital guns no meaning to them I want to play the way I want with the guns I want not how you want.

As it seems the entire Destiny community is unhappy with the current state of masterwork cores and the proposed fix. Not just in here but everyone I talk to in my clan. In the next TWAB I think it's time for the people behind this fiasco to eat humble pie and apologise for getting it wrong. Do the right thing Bungie, just remove cores from the cost of infusion. You're always asking for our input, well you've got it resoundingly. It would go a long way to make up for all the cores we've wasted to drop some cores into the postmaster for us all as a gesture of good faith.

Do you guys even care about what your community wants? Nothing gets broken if we can infuse whatever and whenever we want...there was nothing wrong with the way you had it originally...this is just another example of you breaking something to sell us the fix...stop deliberately breaking things that work.,.. How much do you guys wanna guess this will wind up on some idiot roadmap, like the shaders...

My intelligence has been thoroughly insulted. WE misunderstood the purpose of masterwork cores? Uh, no we didn't. They were specifically added to the game for the masterwork system. You just changed your minds. I didn't play your last 2 expansions because you tried to throw dirt in my eyes with Curse of Osiris. I dodged that expansion like a baseball to the head, so now, I'm coming into this expansion, COMPLETELY dry of masterwork cores, or whatever you plan on changing the name to. I can't Masterwork good weapons OR infuse my favorites up. Nice going Bungo. Edit: Who had the bright idea to add quest exotics to the random loot pool? This is straight up POINTLESS (besides not needing cores, which is a solution to a problem you created intentionally, mind you ) unless you want to artificially increase the grind. I hope that person's stuff is in a box, on the sidewalk, because....whoa nelly. Calm down. Fact is, it's stupid. I completed the quest, what do you think I'm gonna be thinking when a second Ace of Spades drops? "This Ace is a memoir from Cayde-6. He left me a message, asking that I take care of her. THIS Ace popped out of a Hive Wizard on Titan. Oh, and THIS Ace fell out of a Cabal dog after I punched him in the nose." Riveting.

Thank you Cosmo for addressing the MWC issues. What it appears your design lead is saying is “we’re [b]not[/b] listening.” I think the overwhelmingly opinion was remove MW cores from infusion [b]and[/b] increase the drop rate. As usual you guys “know best”. Remind us all again how that went for the first year of D2, because I can’t recall. 😜

Edit: Bungie does know that they could have prevented a lot of the unnecessary attention they are getting right now right? and have been since D2 released? I'm beginning to think Bungie likes it because not much has changed in 4 years in the decisions this company makes. They keep changing things that work but have this flawed logic we won't break it. It's amazing how after ROI that this company can't catch on or they are deliberately refusing to make the right decisions. It's good that they kind of listened I guess, but it's bad that not much has changed with the way they go about things. At this point, I don't know if this is more of Activision or Bungie, but I do know this, they are the wrong companies to be working with each other. Look at D1 Y3 and how everything was relevant, meaning all the old content was updated with a hell of a lot of weapons and gear to grind for. Do you know why gamers really enjoyed ROI? The progression didn't have a high cost just to drag it out. The incentive to want to run the old raids etc was there giving the player base a reason to want to grind hours upon hours, it became that hobby you guys said you were trying to create for D2. I know no not everyone likes the way I express my opinion, but it doesn't take brain surgery to figure out if the previous content is kept relevant especially knowing there really isn't that much content? the high-cost wouldn't be a thing and that is a fact. And? this company wouldn't have to keep looking for ways around things like they do the majority of the time and can start making this game as it was intended to be. A hobby, not a job that streamers seem to be mainly the only ones that have time for.

Just remove them and increase drop rates. Problem solved. Please hire me.

Why only “[b][i]increase[/i][/b] the chance of dropping an exotic we haven’t already got”?!? Why not “[b][i]guarantee[/i][/b] dropping an exotic you haven’t already got”?!? If they’re supposed to be rare and “wow”, then at least guarantee they’re “wow” when you finally get one ffs.

So with all the random rolls and options we have now we can’t test weapons and builds because it’s way to expensive to upgrade them. So deleting potential gear builds is limited to guess work and spread sheets. Who’s the genius at Bungie who can’t understand this fact? It would improve a gamers experience ten fold! Why because we like to experiment with the build that works for us. Not sit on gear just because it’s a higher light level with perks we want to try but we cannot because it’s to expensive to upgrade!

Where’s the “fun” in using a shit weapon or armor solely to be a higher LL? If “core” were removed people would be able to play around more with gear as opposed to being restricted to certain gear because they may not have the appropriate materials. It truly is a sad progression system. Just wait till they cap the amount of cores you can earn in a week! I’ll laugh my ass off.
