In the past you rarely disabled an item instead you allowed it to be celebrated and enjoyed (example, Prometheus Lens & Lord of Wolves). Now as soon as an issue is found the immediate action is to disable. I got Felwinters helm and loved it, I personally did not use the glitch a single time but instead just enjoyed the awesome new exotic I got. Then of course it was disabled because of its potential to be exploited, but with the current game state anything that would create fun and bring players back should be celebrated and advertised.
Now my favorite warlock exotic Winter Guile’s gets disabled because of an exploit that could be used to have a ton of fun and cause mayhem in a boring game.
For a game with absolutely no content right now you should be advertising exploits to bring ppl back to the game so they can have fun again. In the past disabling an exotic item was rare, but in the past month we have had 4 exotics disabled.
Once I hit rank 100 this season I’m done. I’ll see you in the fall when hopefully you bring fun back to the game.
Edit: An easy solution to all of this would be to disable Exotics in trials. Exotics should feel overwhelming and powerful which will always create an issue in trying to balance competitive PvP. Obviously these exploits take it to another level but no one is going to complain about it in PvE outside of the Fallen and Hive. But honestly who cares what they think 😁
Edit: Removed statements about exotics being disabled because of trials. Exotics are being disabled at an alarming rate this season and I don’t understand why. I completely understand exotics have been disabled in the past but never this many in such a short period of time.

Wow I've never thought about it that way. You're right, they really never do disable gear that breaks pvp, but anything that breaks pve (whether you exploit it or not) is always swiftly met with the ban hammer. That doesn't even make any sense considering their neverending quest to balance pvp at the cost of pve. You would think that as soon as something breaks pvp, bungie would immediately act and at least bandaid fix it, but they literally just acknowledge it and let it reign. But in pve, it's shut down immediately. That makes literally no sense considering one is destroying the experience of other players and the other is doing absolutely no damage to anyone's experience. Like actually wtf, I don't understand.

4 RisposteSticking around for a rank? Why? Bungie pissed in your cup and you'll finish the last half cuz it's wasteful? Jesus.

7 RisposteSince Destiny 1 Bungie has spoiled PVP players and neglected the PVE because of it, and it all started with The Vex Mythoclast... Other games have 2 different data tables for PVE and PVP, but no... Bungie only needs 1. Most of the issues of this game's pvp are because taking the rpg component of a huge weaponry and skills/classes to the PVP, and that's a mess to balance each time. It's even worse when more weapons are added because of expansions, and some tweaks to skills and old weapons/exotic stuff must be done... and that's when the PVE gets the middle finger to favor the PVP. Many good solutions to those issues were clearly posted here in the forums 5 years ago, and many times until today, but they've doing deaf ears. We can't trust Bungie anymore, they just want to do things their own way and don't care at all about doing it right or wrong, because they have an ego as big as The Eververse item list.

1 RispondiBungie should stop nurfing what makes this game great! Space Magic! This isn’t cod. This is DESTINY... 2 -_- We’re ment to be “GOD KILLERS”. But now we’re ball killers, BALL KILLERS -_- . Our powers have been nurfed to death! My super doesn’t do anywhere near the kind of damage these balls do. BALLS! I remembered when my supers would wreak havoc on my enemy’s and our exotics would complement this power oh so beautifully, earning us the title of God killers. But because of some people, who really should be playing cod, complained about being killed by a super or an exotic, we get turned into ball killers. Are you happy now!? Guardians, Ball Killers. The Darkness are pissing themselves with laughter on there triangle ships.

I’m with ya! They disabled Wormgod’s Caress as well (by the way this is like the third time they’ve disabled these exotics in the past 2-3 months) and I use it exclusively on my Titan. I’m sick of always having to switch back to lame legendary gear because of these “oopsies”. Leave it for PvE and disable it for everything else. Or have it to where if you have that exotic equipped, you can’t go into a PvP activity. Today I logged on to play a bit, saw that they were disabled and then logged right off.

1 RispondiWow, the fact that this has any upvotes is disappointing. Using an exploit is cheating, just maybe a different degree of it. It's not much different than saying that ddosers are just exploiting the netcode and should be allowed because it's Bungie's fault. I realize that PVE only was mentioned but there are still rewards and such tied to it. What players are essentially saying here is that cheating in the game is more fun than playing it fair. That's partially Bungie's fault but it's also on all these players.

Winters guile isn’t that good, might I recommend using The Best Warlock Exotic Ever, [b]Ophidian Aspects[/b]

1 RispondiYup, -blam!-ing dumb. I had to get my 25 melee kills in gambit for my bounty the hard way cuz Bungie is run by morons who can't program. They need to get their shit togeather.

Cheese forever, guardian. 🧀

5 RisposteModificato da thatdudeEd54: 4/16/2020 3:22:40 AMIts because gambit exists. It wouldnt be fair if a whole team was using this to take down a prime evil.
-
From what I've read it's easier to fix the problem if its disabled. But not sure how accurate that is.
-
I don't even understand the need to turn off the Felwinter Helm. You disabled it because switching it on and off and then your first kill (only 1 ) will proc the blind affect within a 5 meter radius of your character. And you did this when Widows Court was the Trials map.... One of the most sniper heavy maps in the game.... Who is doing this? Who is opening their menu and switching a helm off and on to get a small blind affect and that's only if they don't get killed in the process? Seems like a huge waste of time. At the same time why Wormgod and Winters Guile (for like the 5th time)? Is Riven spamming the Abuse hotline or something? Quit crying Riven.

2 RisposteModificato da ♤♧♡♢: 4/15/2020 4:25:50 PMThe fact they release these exotics then have to turn around and disable them tells me there is a serious lack of play testing going on. The same thing can be said about broken exotic weapons like hard light and prometheus lens. How is it possible that these things are released without knowing this? It's doesn't take a PhD to figure out that the buffs to hard light itself, then the buffs to 600 autos in general were going to turn this thing into an absolute monster. Hell, even the A-list YouTubers were making videos anticipating how strong this gun in particular would be after the buff before the buff even went live! Somehow the Community knows, but Bungie doesn't? What's going on here?

This is why I'm only grabbing some exotic quests to get me through till Halo 6 and Diablo 4 come out..

2 RisposteThey can't or won't separate the two.....

3 RisposteYou ruined your argument immediately. The handful of people who do enjoy trials as few as they may be, having trials plagued and ruined by a broken exotic is miserable. Disabling it is the right play and while I totally get how frustrating that can be, it has to be done for what tiny amount of competitive integrity trials still holds.
-
I will concede defeat to anyone that apes winter guile in Trials. Screw it. If they that smooth, I deserve to lose. They would have to dodge my shotty game, and mack multiple teammates to get any use. Let it run free.
-
What your saying is true, everybody knows it...but Luke Smith reigns SUPREME , all hail Luke
-
Not sure why you would use winters guil in trials. Not very likely that you would have multiple melee battles without dying. All the exotic does is increase your melee damage.
-
Well it does so it is what it is . Life goes on.
-
Yo how the -blam!- is winters guile your favourite exotic its associated and themy MOTHER-blam!-ING AUTOCORRECT I SWEAR TO -blam!-ING GOD I HAD TO RETYPE ALL THAT 13 -blam!-ING TIMES Winters guile needs a timer buff as rn it being paired with the worst melees in the game makes it borrible
-
6 RisposteModificato da BoyarD: 4/15/2020 7:28:36 PMPretty sure these exotics have mostly been removed due to PvE... Winters Guile and Wormgod. Felwinters, Telesto and Raijus were due to both PvE and PvP If there is an issue like extreme damage buffs in PvE, they will definately be removed *ahem* the first two mentioned Edit: Peregrine Grieves, Sealed Ahamkaras Grasps, and Jotunn were also removed for a short time because of PvE

2 Risposte'Once I hit 100 I'm done'....as soon as I read this I didn't take anything you wrote before seriously. You're not going to stop because you're in no way serious about it.

3 RisposteWhy are there so many upvotes when worm was disabled for pve? Haha I agree exotics should he disabled for Trials but this is rather depressing to see.

2 RisposteBungie hates exotics so much, they are on the side of Carole Baskin
