    Something I've noticed since the December update: upon completing a weapon field test, it will show "completed" while the weapon is equipped, but as soon as a new weapon in equipped (so that the completed weapon can be discarded) the yellow highlight disappears and the description will show "100% progress" but not "complete." Far as I can tell it's just a matter of visualizations, no actual effect on gameplay, Gunsmith Reputation gains, etc. As for SRL itself, I'm enjoying it. It can be a lot of fun. It can also be immensely frustrating. There have been a few races when I was maintaining a rather strong lead (could fit 3-4 "emblem" spaces between mine and second place on the right-hand side tracker), and then something absolutely STUPID will happen. For example, on Venus, the volcanic cave right before the waterfall. I have had my sparrow busted to flaming on an invisible "Rock" at the bottom of the ramp, and I have been flipped upsidedown and continued to "breakdance" spinning on my head a full 8 seconds before the game finally decided "he ain't gettin' up, blow him up and reset," by which point the entire pack had passed me. 1st to 6th. Not a fun time. But the worst one, again ending a rather commanding lead, coming over the "man-cannon tunnel" on the Mars track. Came in full speed off the last boost gate, yet over the course of this "bridge" that is supposed to be self-propelling, my speed dropped like a bad habit and I was unceremoniously dumped half-off the opposite cliff face, left to scratch and claw my way back to a stable footing, and once again, 1st to 6th in an instant. Oh, and when are these 320 Light drops supposed to happen? Best I've had so far was a 298, which is decent, sure, but not close enough to 320 to make a difference. I don't want to end on a sour note, so I want to say thank you for finally making Collector's Edition class items actually usable again. I must admit having dropped the extra $20 on the CE just to get 170 gear that was MARKED as TTK gear and yet could not be infused was immensely frustrating. So, when can we infuse/improve Year One Legendaries to TTK standards? I miss my Iron Regalia and Deathsinger gear (among others). Edit: Ok, so much for not ending on a sour note. Bungie... *deep breath* [b]Fix that mother--blam!-ing light bridge on Mars![/b] Nine times. NINE -blam!-ING TIMES! And that was just tonight. Nine times that stupid "boost bridge" threw me STRAIGHT into the goddamn cliff face. "Oh, you thought you were making the jump, eh? -blam!- YOU, eat rock." So many -blam!-ing races lost, so many laps gone from 1st/2nd to dead last by a mile all because that -blam!-ing thing all of a sudden can't -blam!-ing work right.
