Aside from the obvious that they want to make sure people aren't in matchmaking forever - the main reason they wont is for farming. PS4 - clock adjusting to spawn solo aside. Part of the reason they didn't add missions selectable from the map for replaying - (originally meditations; now daily heroics) was to remove farming. Back in D1 certain quest objectives could be farmed by doing an activity solo and essentially trivialize the quest step. This way, outside of nightfalls (where you can solo - but it has to be in rotation), even if there is a decent method to farm something - outside of you having a full fire team; randoms completing strikes as normal will pull you forward.

[/quote] I get what you are saying but Bungie needs to understand that the more restrictive they are... the more it drives players away. Who exactly does it hurt if we "farm things"?

  • not disagreeing with you. But as of late, their reasons are (poorly) behind their idea of making things "meaningful" or "impactful" - meanwhile, in games, or anything in life, if there is an easy way to grind something out ie. efficiency we're going to chase it. "making content is hard" according to them.

  • [quote] But as of late, their reasons are (poorly) behind their idea of making things "meaningful" or "impactful" [/quote] Yep, and this tells me that their leadership is garbage because they are taking themselves and their game WAYYY too seriously. Somewhere along the way they've forgotten that this is a video game for entertainment and most of us fell in love with the game for SPACE MAGIC and all the glorious power that came with it. I think a good majority of us are adults with jobs, mortgages and other responsibilities where we have to put thought into our approach based on what is most important. When we sit down to play a game, we want to it to be FUN and CAREFREE..... I want to be able to upgrade every last thing without having to put thought into "omg... how many gold nuggets do I have". I have just shy of 3,000 hours into this game. I've stuck with it despite the frustrations because I (foolishly) keep believing Bungie will right the ship. The shine is wearing off that notion though.... I'm just getting real tired of being letdown.
