The real reason for implementing contest mode for the Dungeon in the way they did is only for streamers. Just think, why not just release both contest mode and normal mode at the same time? It would have caused no issues. People who want to do contest mode have that option and people who want to run normal right away can as well. The only people that this would affect are streamers. And Bungie just can't have that. All this does is add evidence that Bungo is once again giving streamers preference. Edit: For people with the argument "why can't you just wait 2-3 hours, for the normal mode" First, I have no intention of playing the new dungeon, I haven't logged on in months. Second, You really don't understand why people don't want to wait a couple additional hours to play after its release? I mean c'mon, people paid for it, they want to play asap. Why do you think that every DLC drop people are unable to log into D2 for hours because of how many people are trying to login at once. Nearly everyone who has made this argument already admitted that plan on playing contest mode. So then Bungo's decision doesn't affect you and you can hope on right away. So just try and put yourselves in their shoes, the people who will end up waiting for a multitude of different reasons. People who paid to get in just like you but now have to wait because Bungie decided to change the way Dungeons are normally released. This is just an outside perspective, I'm fully aware just how much of a non-issue this really is.
