[quote][b]UPDATE: Lost Sector Rewards[/b]
We're aware of player reports about Lost Sectors not granting rewards. There was a throttle added to address an issue in the previous Faction Rallies where players were earning 500 Tokens per hour.
The [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Explore/Detail/Update/46536]patchnote concerning this change[/url] has been updated to correctly state that all Lost Sector chests are subject to this throttle.
Right now if a player opens more than 2 Chests in a 10 minute period they will not receive additional rewards from Lost Sector chests for 10 minutes. This does not prevent players from completing milestones related to Lost Sector chests.[/quote]
Cheers,

Lol. HUGE FACE PALM! At this point we are a school of salmon trying to swim upstream. Bungie is controlling the dam, claiming to be savior to the fishes. They help us get to the next pool in the river by improving current conditions, one step closer to our goal. Then suddenly Bungie opens the dam full tilt and washes us downstream even farther than where we started (not to mention killing off multitudes of us each time they do so). They also proceed to dump boulders the size of houses into the river as obstacles. They repeat this over, and over, and over...until we end up back in the lake and searching for a better river to swim up. Then at the end of it all, they stand at the dam and scratch their heads as to why their river's salmon population either died off or searched for a more favorable river. It's tragically funny! 😂

So you made the most boring "Live Event" even more boring.

10 minutes. Did it really have to be 10 minutes after only 2 Lost Sector Chest openings. Like serious, that is way to much of a timer. Even 5 minutes after only 2 would still seem like a long time to just get rewards from a 3rd chest.
-
Really? Who cares if someone gets 1000 tokens? There is a limit on how many packages a person can get. If someone wants to burn through it as fast as possible, let them.
-
3 Repliesyou have got to be kidding me this is a ridiculous situation - you are penalizing people for being able to complete more than one lost sector in ten minutes. Most lost sectors can be done in about 2 minutes. This was my first time logging in for well over a week and come back to yet more stupid broken bs due to amzing decision making from devs.
-
Guys relax, there is no new loot anyway so theres no reason to farm tokens, or really do anything in this game at all... For the 3 people who will play D3, I salute your dedication to space magic.
-
Good job wrecking this too. Do you guys even test your game? No loot for 4 sectors in a row. I was playing by myself and killing every single enemy. Not rushing at all. What a joke.

Only one evening in and I've had enough same shit different week. Why put a -blam!-ing milestone to loot lost sectors and cap the chests you can open. This game is just designed by simpletons. Done my call to arms in my second character got a exotic oooooo editing could it by a nice gauntlet I need or some boots.... no it's the -blam!-ing dildo helmet that i got in a exotic drop earlier that looks so -blam!-ing nasty you just dismantle straight away. Done my flashpoint on my main warlock go to dick head cayde who's trying to bum people with his chest maps... ooooo a exotic yay my 10000000000th soul gauntlet. Puka I know I'll go to FWC and trade some tokens i have enough... awesome no faction stuff just same old same old tiring gumsmith bullshit. Who ever is destroying this -blam!-ing game just go.... go away.... just leave
-
10 min? There is a limit to the faction engrams that grants you items and yet you want to prevent players to get hundreds of tokens you'll delete before the next faction rally wtf bungo
-
The throttle should only happen when the same lost sectors are looted multiple times. I moved around to 5 or 6 different lost sectors and this happened to me. Not cool.
-
1 ReplyShould make it just so players can't loot the same one repeatedly... Lost sectors don't take long to do and with fast travel it's real easy to get to next one quickly.... Throttle the same lost sector to 10 minutes that still solve the"issue"....I didn't see a problem before but why not restrict how players get to play the game they want
-
1 ReplySoooo.... Bungie thinks: 500 tokens/ h < fun than 40 tokens [b][i][u]tops[/u][/i][/b]/ h Especially in a looter with three characters and quite likely limited time to play with a game based on RNG..... I know what my dad would say. “Smooth move Ex-lax.”

I wasn’t even farming. I was moving at an average pace, going through lost sectors when I noticed I didn’t get a reward from a chest. I assumed it was a glitch. Now I’m reading that I’m being throttled for playing the game normally? Screw you guys. You clearly got the throttle wrong if it’s affecting normal gameplay.
-
Thankfully Bungie can always be on top of fixing any exploits that benefit the playerbase. However, if it's something holding them back it'll be the good ol' "we're aware and actively seeking a fix" for a few weeks.
-
The throttling seems to be account based rather than per character, this is for the lack of a better word -blam!-ed. Throttling per character is to some extent acceptable but for the entire account!?!
-
Why the ferk am i only receiving a shatass sidearm with faction tokens.... Same repeated weapon over n over... Plz tell me this is a bug??!!
-
Man, it was said that you guys were trying to make lost sectors more rewarding. I'm not saying that no cooldowns for tokens is the sole answer, but cooldowns are certainly a step in the wrong direction. Just my opinion
-
Omg guys all this remove tess nonsense has helped me so much i can not get sparrows doing events!! A ton of my friends are returning to the game.

Edited by DeathPony07: 1/17/2018 3:05:02 AMAre we going to have another Faction Rally during Season 2? I didn't pledge to Dead Orbit, because they have ugly gear, and now I can't get the -blam!-ing emblem. I didn't know there were going to be new emblems every season. Why can't we switch factions if we didn't receive any rewards yet?

Edited by MrPlebiusMaximus: 1/17/2018 2:07:33 AMOk, hold on there. Look Bungie, I love you guys. I do. And I very much enjoy Destiny 2 as a whole, but this throttle is absolutely ridiculous. I read this post, saw the community's response and my gut reaction was that these people were complaining that the farming glitch didn't work anymore so I paid it no mind. Flash forward 20 minutes: I'm playing the game and looting sectors at what I feel like is a pretty lax pace. I'm in no rush, I take time to kill every ad in each sector, and yet on my fourth chest opening I get no rewards. Not just no tokens, nothing at all. I'm assuming this throttle is purely for the integrity of the Faction Rally. That's fine, but then shouldn't the tokens be the only rewards throttled and not all of the normal loot too? I'm also assuming that the 10 minute timer you describe doesn't actually start until the first chest from a sector is opened. Which means that realistically the penalty is for running 2 lost sectors within ten minutes of opening the first chest, right? If the point is to stop glitch farming, can't you figure someone is doing that if they open excessive amounts of chests in, say, 5 minutes? Or some number that doesn't also include the average person's run time of 2 lost sectors? I see the message you guys are trying to send here, but right now with the current system that message is coming off as forcing players away from lost sectors as a viable source of loot.

Edited by AlphaLion42: 1/17/2018 3:41:57 AMAfter all the bs we had to take this far, now this? Another way of sticking it to us. Great idea, make the game more boring. I really wonder if that’s going to push or veer people towards the eververse now. Hmmm
-
We can only open 6 chests per hour now? Come on, that's bullshit to everybody who wasn't exploiting anything. You're artificially dragging out how long it takes us to get armor and weapons when there was already a cap on the number of engrams we could get.
-
When the solution to an exploit is to essentially punish normal play - you really need to rethink the solution. Really, just get rid of the lost sectors being part of the faction rallies. You've made them frustrating and annoying - and I don't play video games to be frustrated and annoyed.
