[quote]Not even sure you read my comment... most of your stuff makes zero sense. If somebody gets matched for a raid near completion they obviously put in the time and effort probably many times and have already beaten the raid which was my requirement to even be able to get matched with a raid that far. Guess that didn't register? You don't want to play with friends if their internet can go offline? And you want to question people about their speed tests... how is that in any way a healthy community. You want to focus on all the negative aspects of the gaming community? Why could you lose friends mid raid? Are you serious? Do you not work? Have you never been called in to fill in a shift? Do you know anybody who has kids? Have you ever had a storm and a power outage? Never had your internet provider just go out and force you to sit and wait till they fix the problem? And those are unacceptable problems that would cause a player to be kicked out of your raiding circle. So we're back to the lets try and show the world gamers are assholes way of thinking. Right now i don't like the entire raid set up and my plan was for a totally new system. If we look at developer comments you are locked in for a week, can get the reward once a week, and can pick up at the same point you left off from until it resets at the end of the week which means since i have too many friends I can't even play with two different groups i have to pick which guys i play with and say -blam!- you to the rest for a whole week. They also said players are locked not characters so switching characters doesn't look like it will help. That doesn't sound like a sit marathon to me and neither does Bungies comments about a great group being able to finish the Raid in well under 3 hours once they learn the fights and figure out what to do. On a side 2-5 hours a week is pathetically small lets hope there is more to do in this game or at least hope deej misspoke when he said we have 1 raid.[/quote] One good raid a week will prevent it from getting old. I don't like that you can start from where you left off mid game but that's bungie being cheesy Me choosing to play a 3 hour event with someone who has above 5down and .5 up is my business. I'm not being negative at all I just want someone to have good Internet and good gear for a raid. All the reasons you mentioned are easy to plan around and the ones you can't are so rare it's not a threat to the game. You having obligations is not my problem and the game should be no more easier for you than it should be harder for me but explain how armor and weapons everyone has access to shows that really worked for it?
