Why the bloody hell must every little thing pull you out of your menu?
Say I'm in a playlist, or between rounds in trials, or I died. I try to change weapons before I respawn or scrap some rare weapons for those precious parts to upgrade something between games. I get pulled from my menu every damn time.
In a game that cannot be paused, I must use what little time there is between events to do what I need to do, and your stupid menu pulling load screens make me rage.
Edit1: Further scenario examples.
Reward screen after a crucible match. "better not check your bounties..." -yoink-
During the countdown timer after strike completion. "Don't you look at that shiny new legendary..." -Yoink-
Checking opposing team loadouts prior to a Trials match. Wait.. was that a team of three sunbrea- -YOINK- "YOU NEED TO SEE THIS LOAD SCREEN. LOOK AT THOSE CLOUDS. THEY'RE IMPORTANT."
Loading into a new crucible match. "What's that? You decided to use a different weapon?!" -F*CKING YOINK.-

Edit 2: related annoyances brought up by commenters.
• Sprint cooldown. How many left stick clicks does it f*cking take?! (Lost Sols provided temporary solution)
• Lack of D-pad synth mapping on controller. I mean, really, who needs two dances at once?
• the amount of time it takes to load the menu itself when in combat. With this many spinny loading icons, you'd think this was an Apple product.
• This one I just thought of. Loading into a new area and your BLOODY CHARACTER DISAPPEARS FROM THE MENU. "Wanna see what that new shader or armor looks like? TOO FRIGGIN BAD. Wait until you load into combat, pleb."

Solution suggestions from the comments:
H0TLava300: "You know how you made it where you can press up and down on the D pad to see bounties and modifiers? Add a category for popping wep synths, changing weps, and multiple dance movies."
Lost Sols: "You can end the sprint cooldown by jumping. Let's you sprint again immediately."
Please, for the love of The Seven, fix this nonsense.

Signed. Worst thing in this game that could be easily fixed.
-
Ugh thank you. Most frustrating simple thing in the game
-
Bump. So annoying. I'm perfectly happy in my menu.... That's why I'm in my menu. I don't need you to help me out of my menu.
-
Me too
-
I agree, all those things are extremely frustrating. I can deal with the sprint thing but please fix the menu pulls
-
So -blam!- glad you mad a post about this, bump. Bungie. You know how you made it where you can press up and down on the d pad to see bounties and modifiers? Add a category for popping wep synths, changing weps, and multiple dance movies.

You do know it's because the game is so much bigger than what the PS3 or xbox360 can handle that why with all the stuff going on it takes so long for the system to load up the menu etc ps4 Xbox one don't if to wait ages for this to happen nor did the beta but cuase of all the things which had been added it takes time to load everything. I do agree with the first part that it kicks you from the menu in trails but why are you doing that in trails in the first place?

Hahaha "yoink" so true!! Bloody annoying as hell-bumping the shite out of this.

Good post, G! Sums up my feelings nicely.

Here's a small tip, when you hit your menu, hold the cursor in the middle of the screen, where your guardian would be, instead of instantly to a specific weapon or armor slot. This makes it load faster for me at least😊
-
I'm sure there are technical issues that would make head spin involved in this but it really is getting to be an annoyance for me too. Let me stay in my darn menu for as long as I need to get whatever I need done, done. Quit pulling me out of it.
-
Personally I think it's insane in a game as fluid as this to have to go to a menu, just to change weapons. Weapon cycling should be on the D pad, I'd pick that over emotes all day. Quick weapon selection would improve this game no end. Other than that, yes I agree 110%.
-
Bump. Especially for the Sprint cool down. I can't remember how many times I've died in a raid because my character wouldn't -blam!-ing run..mainly in kings fall jumping with relic. Oh I see you need to make a small jump well now you can't run wtf
-
Oh god... Finally someone who understands the struggle. The frustration.
-
Definately bumping this..
