Bounty Percentages
Anyone else annoyed by the constant switching of percentages and numbers in bounties and activities? Maybe in the Witch Queen we can get rid of percentages and just just tell us how many people we need to end or how many items to collect rather than having to turn to alegebra to work out the game

Best it's even really bad with catalyst unlocking as well they used to have how many you had to kill now it's just a percentage.
-
Or wait wait, how about we display both.... [spoiler]*snicker*[/spoiler]

5 RespuestasBe careful bringing this up. It’s astonishing how many players defend such an arbitrary and counterintuitive data display. “Just do the maaaath, it’s not haaaard.” Like I play games to calculate percentages. Just tell me how many damn enemies I have to kill.
-
Percentages are often used when certain things grant more progress for instance completing harder activities like high level night falls or defeating guardians

16 RespuestasI just hate when I see that "____% kills"

3 RespuestasThe Bungie math does not even make sense. Its weighted to make you do more than the requirement asks for. Take the Sleeper Catalyst in this video for instance. I needed 500 kills to complete it but at 499 kills the Catalyst showed 89%
-
They just really like how their game is rng oriented, it’s only natural they speak in %.
-
2 RespuestasI don't think anyone wants to read they are 100/5500 on [i][b][u]any[/u][/b][/i]thing. No, I'm okay with what they do.
-
33 RespuestasSo you’re cool with subtraction of arbitrary numbers on the fly, but draw the line at dividing into 100? Do they just not teach math in elementary school, these days?
-
yet another rng from bungie.
-
Yes, I am. This game is death by a thousand annoyances..
-
1 RespuestaI thought it only did that when it has a description “killing these whatever enemies grant more progress”. I know guardian kills or final blows usually count more compared to pve defeats.
-
I agree
-
1 RespuestaWhat's really weird is that the info is already in the API, Bungie chooses to show % instead of actual numbers for some reason but if you use an item management app like Ishtar commander, etc. It shows you the actual number and not %.
-
Braytech tells you numbers
-
Seriously
-
Great idea!
-
What you dont love 100% bounties that aren’t completed because they round up
