I know this will be taken as a whine post but i really dont care.
Im a father. I have a full time job. I told myself i would preprep and get everything done i needed to to attempt 24 hour raid completion as its been a goal of mine since d1. I out the time and effort in over the past week grabbing everything for all 3 characters. Want to know what my power level was at when i was done with everything? Even after todays resets? 708. I have no challenges left to do. I have no powerful drops left to get. The o ly thing i was unable to do was the raids for the extra chance at gear but i did save up some keys to use once LW unlocked.
708.
How am i supposed to have any sort of fair chance at this challenge without sherking my duties as a father and as a member of soceity? When the majority of my drops were only +1 or +2?
Isnt the point of locking certain things was to have a good fair chance at the 24 hour completion? Or is that only for your world firsts that most people dont really care about?
Im not salty. Not upset. You k ow what i feel? Wasted time. I feel like i wasted my time putting the effort into attempting somerhing that i would never have a fair chance at unless i skipped work and skipped being a dad for a day which im not going to do. The games still ginna be here at the end of the day and im fine with not getting the trophy but i out my effort in and i feel like i got nothing in return.
So whats my point? My point is something lots of people have made fair points about.
We dont feel like the effort were putting into it as being rewarded due to the crap rng this game had.
The majority of your playerbase arent streamers who game for a living. Were adults out in the world doing adult things and being productive members of soceity.
The majority of LFG is people 705 to 715 trying to do it and its tough even at 720 so what hope do those people have? We dont. We have none. And its because of rng. This game could gice you 5 750 pieces all for the same slot. What then? You give up on something you prepped for because the game decided you werent supposed to do it.
+1 and +2 shouldnt exist in the game. Dont act like people arent gonna be level cap by week 2 anyway cause we are.
This just feels bad. I dont feel like the time i put into prepping was worth it. Not only did i have to do a ton of prep but i had to hope rng was on my side to be able to do the 24 hour completion.
Thats it. It doesnt feel good. I would have felt better if i could have atleast attempted it and failed the attempt im ok with that. But failing due to outside sources that i have no control over is utterly laughable. I think im gonna enjoy this season for sure thats a given but idk if im down for playing the next big expac. Im still hunting anarchy and always on time from scourge and the stupid ship and ghost form lw and yes im doing them 3 times a week and my effort seems wasted. I feel thats the bigfest real complaint everytime i come to these forums. Time put into it doesnt feel worth it because we arent getting any more closer to the rewards were looking for no matter how many times we punch that wall it just doesnt want to come down. If the new raid turns into that again then i sou t ill atill be around for the next expac unfortunately. Theres other games i can play that my effort is a tually rewarded with that are also rng based (wow for example with the bad luck system they have in place.) Did a good job implementong that into reckoning so why not with raids?
Idk. I wanna feel salty tho i dont because i wasnt really thinking idbget it done in the first place but atleast i tried i guess. Maybe take a break from destiny. Dont feel to great after this.

9 通の返信As a father with a job that helps to take care of his autistic son and disabled wife I can certainly relate. In the end I don't expect to get a Raid done on the first day or think I can cheese my way to 750 in a week. I play just to play. It's fun and I like to make my way through the game at a leisurely pace. I know not everyone wants to play this way but one has to make comprises.

I don't think worlds first is designed for you or me. That's an event to reward the most hardcore players. While you were working to make money, or studying, or having fun with your buddies etc., many were grinding towards worlds first. The opportunity cost for them is all the above that they missed out on and for you it is that you couldn't compete for worlds first. As I think it should be.

2 通の返信If they were going to cap it for a level playing field, they simply should have set it at 690-700 not 720. Meaning with the power surge quest nearly everyone would have had a chance.

10 通の返信708 is decent jump with only one character. Proper raid prep utilizing all three characters would have netted even higher level.

Sorry you got your hopes up, I would have loved to have attempted a first 24 hours clear, but I work crazy long hours during the week, if it dropped on a Saturday I would have been all in, but I know I can't commit more than 2-3 hours without taking a day or two off work. And frankly that is just an unreasonable thing to ask people to do, it's a video game, I'm not going to leave my coworkers picking up my slack for two days, or take 24-26 work hours out of my paycheck for a small accomplishment in a game that was made clear by the timing would be unreasonable for the average player.

13 通の返信TheShadow-caliにより編集済み: 6/6/2019 10:33:22 AMThis isn't D1 to where I would even want to spend that kind of time playing D2. Even then, you had a way better chance getting raid ready vs D2 and it didn't feel like a second job. Edit: [quote]We dont feel like the effort were putting into it as being rewarded due to the crap rng this game had.[/quote] You mean has. It goes a lot further than the RNG in this game and some refuse to look at what's actually wrong and fell for Bungie line that they are creating a game to where we would make "meaningful choices". I often wonder who is the one that comes up with these false narratives to get gamers to believe something that actually isn't there. It's sociological nonsense and it's being way overused with this company. Think about this for a moment. It's a small thing but it actually happened. Xp throttling, Bungie gets caught and says sorry in other words, right? But what do they do about it? [spoiler] Do it again and get caught again. [/spoiler] So saying sorry holds no meaning and shows they didn't give a flying hoot and just throw a word out there so some would buy it as they did. This kind of mentality needs to stop and it's not just with Bungie, it's with most gaming companies nowadays. Creating a false narrative of what's going to actually happen. The comical thing about it? Bungie lied and said "we were the ones creating a false narrative" about the player base dropping when in fact when the base game released Bungie lost almost 80% of their player base.

4 通の返信Want my advice? Put the pad down. Turn off your Xbox/Playstation/PC. Don't play Destiny again. Best decision I ever made Use the time wasted chasing RNG towards more rewarding permanent things, like your day to day life being a father. Destiny was once a casual fun game,a great game at that. and as bungo have progressed running out of content and ideas they've padded the game out with the same old tedious grind, 're skinning the same old D1 Weapons, Destiny is no longer a Casual game for Casual players, the core player base gets ignored and the streamers take priority. So unless you can dedicate Hours and hours of your time to the game every day...... Put the pad down and move on, you'll feel all the more better for it

5 通の返信I don't feel like the game should be catered around people who have real life responsibilities like being a father and such. Worlds first races are a joke compared to other MMO's like Wow. So the last thing we need is to make it even easier. I'm all for people with irl stuff playing the game and having fun, however completing the raid within 24 hours is not one that should be mandatory. Atleast not without sacrificing a lot of irl stuff, which you shouldn't ,because being a father is much more important than a game. Life isn't fair.

Eclipseにより編集済み: 6/7/2019 2:51:36 AM[u]this is your raid report ([b]20 raid clears across all raids, most are riven cheese[/b]), do you really think you could even get a month first with that report?[/u] I think you just lie in your post, to try and cause drama on forums, period, a nice vacation from forums would do you good [url]https://raid.report/pc/4611686018467318525[/url] Also, this https://www.d2checklist.com/search/Shiren

You shouldn't be able to win, if you do, it's a miracle and a tremendous achievement, but you are a father with a job, it's over for you to try and be one of the best at every game you play and realize that you've grown up.

Im at 713 and havent completed all the milestones. First drop was 706. Now, I agree that there should be ways to be raid ready within the first week. The raid should release the Tuesday after release. Really we should have story missions that build up to the raid in regards to both story and light level. Seven missions, seven raid appropriate light level drops. But, its not that way. I also lost all drive to raid once I discovered the path to raid was grinding all old content.
