  • Bungie has heat maps, meaning they can see where the most bullets are being fired from so eventually, they'll patch them all and find alternative methods to spawning in enemies. Likewise, they have people in the field that are constantly monitoring for things like this.

  • Thats why i never spend more than 15 minutes at one of my loot caves. What they should of done is fix the root of the problem and make the other things (strikes/heoric missions) more rewarding.

    They're working on that now, read the patch notes further if you haven't yet. They said they're reducing the drops from farming methods such as the cave and increasing rewards from things such as strikes, raids, and missions. If you did read that part, sorry for assuming otherwise.

  • oh I read it. "working" on does not state when it will happen. Basically, they took 3 weeks to nerf the loot cave. When they could of taken 3 weeks to adjust the rewards for strikes and missions. Basically, they ignored the problem and instead took an uneeded route.

  • They're not ignoring a problem, they're addressing other problems that have come up. Keep in mind that they've done in three weeks what other companies don't EVER do. They're making fixes and LISTENING to the community, I don't know too many companies that are even willing to do that. If you're not happy that they're at least trying, then I ask you to name three other games where the company has responded to issues as quickly as they have. And despite what you may or may not believe, the loot cave was a desperately needed fix.

  • No what desperatly needed to be fixed was the loot system not rewarding players for completing strikes/missions on the hardest settings, or the bosses dropping nothing but a consumable to let you earn glimmer faster. Bioware listened to the community and addressed needs regularly.. They added ui customization and match making for players after we asked for it. ddo regularly listened to the community and patched things accordingly before they were bought out, and then again after they were bought out. (didnt while the buyout was in progress but that was a legal issue) Trion listened to the community with rift, and as well with defiance thats 3... satisify you? What bungie did was put a bandaid on a wound and said there all better, even tho the wound needed stitches not a bandaid.

    They're still listening and still fixing, those three companies took MONTHS to fix their problems. At least, Trion did and I bought Rift and stopped playing when they didn't make any of the necessary changes. So, that's only two that MIGHT have fixed their problems three weeks after they've been brought to attention. Their still fixing the problems and if you're not satisfied, you'd probably be best turning the game in and playing another game. Likewise, Destiny is not an mmo and it's odd that you only mentioned mmo companies. Destiny is a social GPS with rpg elements it was never marked as an mmo

  • However, I do not see why they even used the man power to change the spawn rate of the cave when it is needed on the loot system.

  • It was probably a lot easier to get that resolved. Even though they made the game and the coding, it still takes longer to decide what values would be completely balanced when revamping the loot system than it would be to change some values on respawn timers.
