I'll be addressing this in the Weekly Update.
Preview: Power Matters, but so does skill.
English
-
Fix the issues and extend the iron banner for another 7days

This.

So let me get this straight.... it does not matter what someone's gear is or what kind of weapons they are using. As long as you get headshots (no matter how much defense someone has) a level 5 will beat a level 25 or higher? So why is Iron Banner a playlist? Why did Bungie say that the player's gear that they got from all their "hard" work, aka good luck from the RNG gods, matters? What a load of horse shit. There are so many "why" questions and so little answers, and the answers that are given are lousy excuses for answers.... absloutely ridiculous. This game is so messed up..
-
If a level 25 is shooting at my foot, the door, the ground, the other teammate all while I'm shooting consistently at your head then yeah the level 5 would beat the level 25.

But if everyone wants to know NOW, why wait an extra day or two to explain it? The event is only 7 days as it is. Every day matters! ('in-game' matters, not 'real-life' matters, lol.)
-
Family matters
-
Did I doooo thaaat?
-
Marshall Matters
-
Do something about the leavers in iron banner matches please.

Just throwing this out there, but why would it take a "weekly update" to address an issue. The Iron Banner is a limited time event. There is obviously an urgency in the users perspective, so why aren't the devs just as urgent? The timeline for a turn-around will have been too late once it hits your fellow developers ears to the ones tasked out to fix the problem. I'd say it would probably be another week until we see a result. That would be half the time of the event, just to "fix" the issue. In which case, would Bungie extend the Iron Banner? I find it frustrating when just last night I emptied a whole clip into a lvl 7's head. I love the game, but there are flaws (granted). The community is reaching out to you because we care.

Edited by Fatal 0Efx: 10/9/2014 9:42:04 PMWhat people fail to realize is they don't intend to *fix* anything in the weekly update. They intend to *address the concern* via a long winded explanation that explains basically nothing regarding why it is how it is. Basically giving the long answer attempting to explain what "Power matters, but so does skill" comment above.

Because there are company policies in place, he's not your personal -blam!-ing answering machine.

He is a talking head that needs his masters to make up some nonsense for him to spew for their broken, half @ssed game.

I hope you'll look into the possibility of 1 or 2 people on the losing team that did their best to try and carry their team on the skin of their nuts can get maybe even 5 rep for IB instead of crucible rep. If I wanted crucible rep, I'd just play the crucible
-
Form a fireteam with a couple of your friends. You'll have a much better experience in the Iron Banner. Don't rely on randomly picked strangers to be good at PVP.
-
Getting crucible rep for losing in the IB even though you did your best to carry your team is like Bungie saying, "Hey buddy! I see you lost. Sux4ULolololfukU."
-
It's a team based event. If you form a bad team or allow to be randomly placed on a bad team then why do you expect to get rewarded. You still get Crucible rep/marks and a chance at loot. You just don't get Iron Banner rep. This is not an event where everyone gets participation points. It's the Iron Banner! If you spent more time trying to make friends to go into the Iron Banner instead of complaining you might be rank 2-3 by now.
-
Oh and another thing I said. When you try to talk to rando's most of the time, they don't respond back. Can't make friends when everyone doesn't want to talk. Idk if you just annoy the shit out of people until they actually start talking to you or what.. Professional sports players, win or lose, still make at least a couple hundred thousand for playing the game they are supposed to be playing. They don't get cookies for doing their best instead of getting money. They still get money. Same shit, different game.
-
And just so you get this straight, I did say that if I wanted crucible rep and marks, I'd just play the crucible. Not the iron banner. You gotta remember not everyone can play whenever with a whole fireteam of friends like you.. since you have sooooo many friends apparently
-
If it's a team based event then why add matchmaking in there? And why not add in the minimum 5 rep gained towards the IB to give an incentive for rando's who don't have friends they can play with at ANY time of the day like you can apparently to keep playing IB instead of leaving the match as soon as their team just starts losing
-
Again it's the Iron Banner it is a team based skill event. Even with 1-2 friends and a couple of randoms it is definitely possible to win matches. We did it last night for a couple of hours. When you do matchmaking then every match you get stuck with different people there is no consistency. They probably should have disabled matchmaking all together but I bet people would have complained about that too. If you want Iron Banner rep then form a fireteam and work for it. It's not hard. I want the Iron Banner gear to mean something. When I see people wearing it that shows that they are skilled at PVP. If anyone could earn the rep by sitting afk and losing the matches then the gear is worthless. If everyone can easily get it then it is no longer special. Why don't you create a post on the forum looking for people to go into the Iron Banner. Put down ahead of time what hours you will be available to play form a fireteam with those people, then play Iron Banner with a competent team.
