Petition for way to have POE checkpoints

Agree

807

Disagree

205

** Please read my entire post before voting. I feel many of you voted against my idea without actually reading what it was you were saying "no" to. ** What if a token or key system was implemented? You would be awarded a token each level you progress. The token would allow you the checkpoint for that level and only guardians with that level token would be permitted to have the checkpoint or enter a group that has the checkpoint. Only people who earned their way into the final round of Skolas could enter. I think this would give us the option of having checkpoints and still make Bungie happy by not allowing players to give it away like the Gorgon chest checkpoint for example. Thoughts? [b]Lets keep this thread going![/b]

    Why? So you can all only complete the skolas part? It's just plain lazy! U can get there in 30mins Even if you're so bad u have to give up on skolas, it's not difficult to get there again

      It seriously needs a Check Point. Been kicked a few times at Skolas and it is so frustrating when that happens. The Token system would work like the Passage you get from Brother Vance. Could have a tick for each round you can enter on and once complete you need to hand it in. The passage would last a week, yeeeeeeessssssssssssssssssssssssssss?

      • I don't see why not. I'm sure it is possible to track progress in the POE and limit it so that you can only join at, say, round 4 if you have already beaten round 1, 2 and 3 on that character that week. That way there is no passing of checkpoints but people who only have 20 minutes at a time to play can progress through the POE in stages over the week.

      • I agree once finished the fight but got connecting to servers before I got to open the chests :( and one got knocked to the dashboard...... By the time is was back in the party and the game my team had done the deed and finished the boss off..... A total of 5 hours of my life for nothing at all.... If I had the check point I have the chance to reap my reward of effort. :( Still love the game but Poe needs work the standard drop should drop when you take the boss down, the coins etc in the boxes, check points are a must..... And even the 35 relatively quick to get to the boss fight. Unless you get booted by the game and can't renter till your team dies :(

      • It needs doing as, depending on the modifiers. It can take ages to finish an arena. Specialist mod this week is a particularly stupid one. If it's in the 35 and you don't have a vex or vestian you're screwed trying to do that arena legit. Then they pop out kill the target! Seriously! Why do bungie not play their weeks setup BEFORE just shoving it out there. It takes no time to see that that is an unbalanced combination due to reduced weapon damage 34 vs 35 enemies, juggler (really!) and fallen! We ended up blind bubbling the VIP door and shotgun cheesing him in the end as no legitimate tactic worked. GHorn did jack and his shield simply went back up. Skolas is actually easier than that arena!

          • Off course 81% of this "community" are -blam!-ing lazy gamers.... Bungies not going to be stupid and make checkpoints in such a Easy and Simple mode.... I am almost 100% sure these 81% are loners... Have to beg for a last round checkpoint like te lazy gamers they are.... What a joke.... This community is a -blam!-ing disgrace...

                I have been kicked 2 times after spending +2 hour on skolas I will never play with members of the same clan unless I'm host I would have left on my own if I had a checkpoint since they were the ones that sucked and keep getting killed in the first minute of the fight. There was another instance that I was playing with 2 guys in the same clan and when we got to skolas one of them got quiet and a while later a friend of them joined the chat then all of the sudden they could not stay alive and after 30 minutes of just wipes I had to leave for work and now their friend could take my place. My point is we need some kind of checkpoint.

                • All I keep seeing are posts where Trolls keep kicking people just after finishing a boss in PoE thus, denying them a chance to loot the chests. Really? Really Bungie? How the hell did [i]Nobody[/i] testing PoE before it was rolled out [i]Miss[/i] this massive cockup?

                  • I sadly will disagree, and for one reason: There's already groups booting after killing Skolas/boss/etc before you can open the chests. There's groups booting you because you aren't that Titan they wanted, or that warlock, or have Hunger over Gally. Now imagine how bad it will be with checkpoints. Abuse a buncha pugs, then boot them out and give your friends the checkpoints. The amount of "LOOKING FOR SKOLAS CHECKPOINTS" on the LFG sites is rediculous, nobody wants to do the content, they expect a free ride, and that's honestly the most rediculous thing to me. So no. Just no.

                    • Bad idea, it would make rounds 1-4 on all PoE's obsolete, which imo is not in the true spirit of what the PoE is supposed to be.

                      • Got to skolas, spend an eternity nailing him with black hammer. Glitch kills where the captain sword swipe sound would kick in and kill us in our bubble, the mine glitches when we disarmed it after killing skolas (so denied final chests ect) and to top it off I got no elder cipher and my buddy got 2! If the game played straight I would be less worried about CP's, however when faced with soooooooo many bugs the opportunity to go to orbit and come back later would be both fair and invaluable!

                        Just have it so whenever you get to a certain round a little check box in bungies servers gets ticked to say that is the round you are up to and you are able to join games at or below that round, and if you have no little tick then you can't join rounds above where you are at meaning you can't join any game in which the round is what you haven't actually played and reached yet

                        • Is everyone else reading the OP? He said that people would have to do every stage to be able to rejoin at that stage. This would allow no one to skip anything. Everyone would have to do everything unlike the current system where you can join at round 6! This would only allow unfortunate guardians to rejoin if disconnected by the Internet or real life. Why would you be against this idea?
