People would lose on purpose so they could farm the area for engrams glimmer and xp. Great idea though I would love to see something similar added. Mass effect 3 did something similar, they gave the entire community an objective such as kill a million boss characters in a week to receive a special community prize. The first time we failed they posted a message "due to the failure to contain the outbreak of ____ they now appear in greater numbers" it was so surprising to see the game changed on the fly like that it was another level of immersion I haven't seen before. It was especially awesome because a few times they were boss enemies that didn't normally occupy a certain level.
