Tell me again...
What’s the cause of sunsetting gear in the first place?

Well. I’m no expert, but I thought they sunsetting was to prevent power creep. How does gear have power creep? It’s all a lie. They are forcing a grind (or re-grind), that’s all there is to it when it come to gear. It’s the same for guns, they’re forcing a grind. But I also think they want raid altering guns out of the picture like Mountaintop. Probably also want Recluse out of pve in general. Just my 2 cents. The gun thing, fine. People would adapt. The gear thing, doesn’t make sense. Especially since as a casual I can only afford to MW one set of gear on one character. Bungie doesn’t understand that either. They want us to use more diverse gear sets I guess, but they also make it absurdly difficult for us to maintain multiple gear sets. Whatever...

Pinnacle weapons are too OP, so they are trying to eliminate them once and for all. Also they hate the fact that we put time and effort towards playing and they dont want to respect our time investment.

7 RespuestasMultiple factors for why sunsetting is happening: 1) Too many guns already with you only being able to use 3 at a time. They have to be able to give new guns a chance to shine and shake up the meta for endgame content 2) Godrolls. Once you get one, all other weapons of that arch type become obsolete. Why would you ever use another gun when you got the best statistical roll? Having the same load outs and go-to gear for everything forever is not really experiencing anything new and by itself is a boring way to play 3) From a RPG and looter standpoint this makes sense. When you play other games, your gear drops around your level and makes you feel stronger, but as you level up, your gear will become obsolete for being old and under leveled. You have to adapt new gear to properly reflect your power. Now because your level in this game is based on what is equipped, in order to model this you have to be capped with how far you can infuse a given item 4) Keep the game challenging, dynamic, and interesting. While I personally think the argument Bungie made of it being "power creep" is the lamest and weakest excuse for this, it goes without saying that if endgame content becomes too easy then it'll stop being fun overall. And it creates a problem with designing new content because how do you balance difficulty when we are made too powerful? It's not the greatest reason for it, personally I'd rather reduce the blue rarity gear to be green and take half the purple legendaries that aren't special and reduce them to blue rarity

Editado por ChaseyCakes: 6/5/2020 3:34:23 PMBungie not smart/creative enough to make new weapons claiming it's too hard and no one cares about new weapons due to pinnacles. The main underlying issue is pinnacle weapons being too strong with no draw backs. Pinnacle weapons which are essentially exotics painted purple grant too much power to our guardians and make all normal legendaries pale in comparison. You can essentially run 3 exotic weapons at any moment. The solution should've been to sunset only pinnacle weapons but give exotic versions of them to fix the problem and continue to release new pinnacle weapons that will also eventually sunset and have exotic versions to replace them when they've overused their welcome. As of current theres not enough legendary weapons in the game that warrant sunsetting yet. The only weapons that need to be sunset to allow growth is pinnacle weapons. All sunsetting is doing is forcing the community to regrind for old weapons they already have that are just reskinned with a special time stamp that proclaims when it will be useless. All bungie needs to do to make the community chase new weapons is to actually balance weapon archetypes and make lackluster ones more desirable. Each weapon type has the precision fast hitting archetype 2 in the middle archetypes that are more forgiving not requiring precise aim and high impacts which usually require precise aim but pack a punch. Most high impacts need more range and mid impacts need more forgiveness.

Content is hard. Regrind everything and pay us to do it.

Because we asked for a reason to grind new kit and not relying on our old god roll items season after season.

8 RespuestasEditado por Lord Dexter MAD: 6/5/2020 7:43:38 AM[quote]We want the sandbox to feel interesting, exciting, and dynamic, and to evolve in compelling ways over time in the same way that the game evolves. Our weapons are the primary way that players interact with the world, and Season over Season we want players to discover new weapons that feel powerful, have interesting new perks to explore, and power the builds that players craft in new and unexpected ways.[/quote] This is the offical reason. But in reality it is not. We are losing 3664 items from use as bungie are unable to put the time in to effectively balancing gear and they have thus far been unable to make new gear which makes people want to change from there hard earned gear. So they are forcing players to use what will be likely not as good gear to protect the ego of the designers. I will point out simply warframe. A true free to play game where they only add to the game. With the fall expansion we will have LESS gear to acquire than we are losing. As there only single armor sets per plsylist and no new playlist weapons. Playlist weapons will be just the world pool which will contain weapons bungie decide not to sunset yet. Unless bungie can replace all 3664 item then they can not expect people to pay for an expansion where there will be less viable content.
