This weeks update, just posted, has a comment at the bottom that Bungie is aware of the Key issue, along with other issues. Looks like they are listening to us.

Forbes has no [i]business[/i] posting about games. [spoiler]see what I did there? ;)[/spoiler]

This article reenforces why I am just tired of Destiny and even more tired of Bungies games. I feel like I was fooled for a third time. Bungie is done in my book. Never again will I ever purchase ANYTHING that has Bungies name on it. The sad thing is, we allowed companies to get this way by buying into the hype. Never again.

[quote]This article from Forbes nails what is currently wrong with the "Treasure Key" system in PoE in my opinion.[/quote] So an article that someone else wrote is your opinion? This is a new low for thinking for yourself.

I saw this article too. I agree with pretty much all of it. The loot given by the keys are essentially worthless, given how rare the keys actually are, yet simply playing PVP (ToO) can yield much better reward. I'm a PVE player and no desire to play crucible, let alone fine 2 other friends that like PVP to go in with me.

Forbes is a joke. They're supposed to be about business and finance but they post a dozen articles a day about Destiny. Listening to them talk about games is like listening to a fry cook from McDonalds talk about cars. Nobody cares.

Forbes.....lmao

Alright I read it. I agree with that loot/keys having issues. IN GENERAL. But his solutions are garbage. Key farming is fine as is. but there should be a way to get 1 key for "free" perk week per character. That way it's like nightfall ish. If you got a key everytime you completed a higher difficulty the loot problem would be even worse and people would power through PoE stuff faster then they already are. In short one key per week if you want any more chances at that chest loot go farm for it. Loot wise I half agree. even though he forgot to mention that you can get the normal PoE weapons in 32 and up. not just queen weapons. The smaller chests can give materials i'm pretty sure. and you already can get engrams just for completing. He completely missed the fact that you can get rewards just for beating the activity. For instance i've gotten legendary engrams and even one exotic just from opening the small chest to get the completion awards. Loot wise they should make it so other legendary gear besides queens can show in the chest. exotic drop rate shouldn't change. I've played around 25 PoE runs and have netted 4 exotics alone. The drop rate for the elemental primaries in 35 should get a higher drop rate though. the elder cipher should be able to be got on 32 and up. but the higher the difficulty the better chance the bounty will drop. and the skolas rewards (ship, shader, emblem, class item) should drop on completion each week per character. It shouldn't be left up to chance in the chest. IMO the skolas fight needs a small re work. Limiting add spawn to health percentages from sklolas aka 75% 50% etc. instead of swarming the field.

The gear you get from the big chest Is [b]extra[/b] loot. It shouldn't be easy to obtain

ugh. I detest forbes. it's just snobby BS. care to summerize?
