I wonder if Bungie will respond to straightforward polling, so I will be posting a number of simple polls. Add your comments about how you think things should be fixed and why, or why not. Are some classes too powerful? Are some weapons or gear too powerful? Let Bungie know! Edit: Some people really like these polls and would like to see them trending. Perhaps Bungie will see them then and respond to them in some way? Maybe wishful thinking.. Anyways, I have added links to the other polls so that you can vote on all of them!

If I come up with more, I probably won't be able to add them here, so be on the lookout for more polls. Also, if you have any other polls that are specifically directed as feedback to Bungie, please post them in the comments!

  • Yes because bungie shows no option for customization, it's either raid gear or iron banner, you don't really have a choice

  • There is no variety because everyone is chasing the few same exotic weapons and raid gear to be at the top and hundreds of other pieces of legendary gear get tossed aside when you get raid armor or an exotic like gjallarhorn or ice breaker.

    • I'm relatively new to the game myself, but the only thing I've really seen as an issue with the game so far is that the PvP matchmatching seems a bit unbalanced in terms of matching players of similar skill/rank. When choosing a game type in the Crucible, in all the listings it says 'Level Advantages Disabled' so I would assume this should mean that I get put against people who are more or less along my level, thus along my level of gear, however perhaps I'm just misunderstanding what it means? Anyways, I can't really join this and enjoy it because I'm obviously at a disadvantage with lower quality gear and what not. Now of course, some will say things like "get better gear then noob" or "just play smarter/better scrub" but the Crucible is opened for use pretty early in the game for each character, so I would assume a more balanced matchmaking system would make PvP a more viable mechanic for just about everyone at anytime. I remember the first time I tried PvP I just opened the Crucible, curious to try it, and joined as a level 6 where I went up against an entire team of level 32s. It just seems to me that PvP is unplayable until you're a certain level, thus making it a less than appealing feature for a while. Aside from this inconvenience, I've got pretty much nothing ill to say against the game, great work Bungie.

      • In terms of PVP, not really. People say AR's used to be unbalanced but ive gone on many a killing spree with hand cannons. It all depends on your play style. To be honest i think the scout rifles are lacking. Their range and impact are too low and their rate of fire is a little high. They should become more like long ranged hand cannons but with less impact. Impact should go [Hand cannons > Scout rifles > Pulse rifles >Assault rifles] with range [scout > pulse > auto > hand]. Although saying this magazine size should be taken into account. Having some look into other FPS like COD, BF, Titanfall, CS:GO and medal of honour i think we can have mix of AR's with RoF/Impact variants

      • I truly believe more focus was put into trying to make things feel "unique" and "different" rather than balanced. But then in other sections, things are carbon copies of one another. There is really one a couple versions of each weapon, only the perks make them different - so naturally some will always be better. No effort seems to have been put into making the different weapons comparable per slot, and no effort seems to have been made to make the armors feel different enough.

      • I'm happy with the building blocks they've left. To be fair though, guys form this forum are coming up with seriously top notch theories based on the grimore cards.

      • Content is largely trivialized by weapons like gjallerhorn, and icebreaker.

      • I prefer the idea of unbalanced makes it balanced. Everything should work differently and have their own strengths/weaknesses, but each of these play off each other. None is "better" than the other, just different.
