I agree with almost everything you said in making your key-points. I myself, run moderately fast internet, hardwired of course - http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/3775874073 - yet, in the crucible the lag is terrible. I get the draw first, nothing but shooting their face off, yet they manage to kill me somehow by insta-melting through my armor and health, but within a second, maybe two, somehow they die right and I get the kill. I actually dropped down to melee a guy w/ my scorch charged ( warlock sunsinger subclass ), and hit him an additional three times point blank. He then tries to jump-glide away and I melee him twice more, and after a few seconds of him gliding away he randomly dies. WTF???? This is all on x360 btw. Also, I have a legendary fusion rifle with insane range, yet somehow some players barely seem to take damage from it w/in 10' while others go down 30'-40' away with a single shot. I'll be the first to admit when I miss a shot or totally get melted fair and square, but it really chaps my @$$ w/ the whole getting the draw first, yet they kill me and w/in half a second to two seconds after they magically die. I know I'm not lagging b/c my internet is on fire, static ip and all of that good stuff. To address the lack of random loot being dropped, I experience this as well during strikes or patrolling. My friends will get some b.a. gear while I'm still picking up basic rare and uncommon weapons and armor, yet I am at the verge of lvl 28, seriously, I need 8 ascendant shards to get my exotic gauntlets finished and that will put me at 28, then another 43 shards w/ typical easily farmed materials to finish up my legendary pieces. It gets really old getting a legendary item to take to the cryptarc, to only get another freaking armband I've already had a bazillion times. I have grinded my @$$ off to try and get shards, yet I get energy instead, or strange coins, possibly motes of light, when I really just need the d@mn shards haha. Aside from those little things, I seriously have invested some serious time into this game, Destiny is by far the most fun I have had playing online with my friends. Turning the difficulty up and getting an actual challenge that makes me rage when I barely go down, just makes me want to try so much harder the next go-around. These are tiny issues that can be addressed in the near future on Bungie's side of things, other than that, the game is amazing. IMO, the people saying they do not like the game is because they want it to be easy and to have it mastered in the first few days. Sorry, but Bungie actually created a game that challenges the hell even out of the most hardcore gamers, and for this fact I give Bungie mad props, and cannot wait to see where the actual story line will lead. 5 *****'s out of 5 from me!!!!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cjMzpk1AzVo Some crucible action where I get an 11 piece in Rumble. Enjoy.

I can fully agree with everything you've said here sir! Well said and you said it respectfully. :D I absolutely love Destiny but the laggy people in the Crucible are extremely irritating,you can put litterally clip after clip into them and they will still kill you and MAYBE they die >.<.

I think the game is awesome

You are right!!! I want the stuff you mentioned!!! All the money that was supposed to go into the stuff we WANT went into advertising :(

I know what You mean about the faction armor. It's kinda a bummer to know that after a while, there will be other people with the same exact armor as Me, possible even the same guns too.

Oh well watever

A week into this game and my love for it is dying fast. I'm tired of visiting the same locations over and over again. It is frustrating playing crucible only to find yourself wasting your time for a measly 3 marks. It's boring looking at your character and seeing the same armor the same colors. It is annoying getting DC'd or having your friends getting DC'd. Not everyone knows what a static IP is and how to increase the threshold for IP flood. This game was the best for about a week. Now it's like pulling teeth. Grind after grind and rampant disappointment. I bought the Expansion hopefully in December there will be loads more content. My advice to people getting bored who will just develop a distaste for the game. Just stop playing for a couple days take a break. Bungie is doing a decent job of addressing issues and adding content. If you have internet issues check your DDoS defense settings on your modem or router. This game sends and receives a lot of data; your modem or router might be thinking it's getting DDoS'd so it severs the connection. For your money you got a lot of game here with free content and paid expansions on the way. Just take a break, take a breath, and be patient. Hopefully by the end of the year everything will be ironed out. There are other games that are coming out too. It's just a game. If you feel cheated there are a plethora of options you can peruse. And that's all there is to it. It's a good game, but it's flawed and it'll always be flawed just like everything else.

I also just realized your impatient and intolerable comment was not directed my way

Ah it's all good. I see a good opinion laid out I like to throw my voice in lol

^optimism good god humanity is restored. All of you who complain should be like this guy
