😢😭😭😢😂 u baby

Stormcaller Warlocks are OP as -blam!- right now. Among other things too, of course. Last Word needs another range smack down and honestly the next nerf to shotguns should be no sliding. Remove the ability to slide.

I honestly thought that this was a serious post until I read: "The crucible is arguably much harder than a raid is." You must be trolling

Too bad IB isn't meant to get you to 320 light. Cry about it

I reached rank 5 saturday and my reward package has been lost entirely. I'd trade you for yours anytime. It feels very unrewarding indeed.

Do people play this game to have fun anymore? Or is it just about the loot? If you're not having fun then don't play the game-mode. Don't ask for it to be removed because you had a bad time. For the rest of us we like to play and the loot is the cherry on top.

I've played nearly every Iron Banner that has appeared since Day 1. I struggled through the very first Iron Banner when it wasn't exactly... right. I suffered when there were level 32's and I was stuck at 31. I got stuck at 32 when everyone was at 34. Now I'm suffering again but this time my friends have broken their controllers, turned off their consoles mid-game, and stopped playing Destiny because of this weeks Iron Banner. I've loved Iron Banner and stuck with it, suffering through all the bs that it has to offer until I reach Rank 5 with at least one character. This week I got two of them to Rank 5, but had to quit several times and calm myself down because of the amount of lag and bs loot. I've gotten oNE helmet, ONE cloak (that I already had at 307!), and two Ghosts. One of them was a post-game drop at 314 (have a 315 Raid Ghost) and the other (from the rank 5 package) was 315... Wow, such loot. Bungie, I love you guys and I love this damned game but you have to listen to us for once and fix the damned servers. Next Iron Banner, if this happens, I can guarantee that if it's like this, I'm quitting IB for good and I'm going to start looking for another game. I haven't found one yet and I don't want to.

So true: "The crucible is arguably much harder than a raid is. Raids are the same every single time. Every enemy is programmed to do the exact same things. You are fighting a computer with designed intelligence. And although the raid may lag sometimes, the crucible is just as laggy. In PvP, you're fighting real people, with real intelligence. Why do we get rewarded less for considerably harder challenges? Iron banner takes days of grinding for a chance at a 320 piece of gear. Challenge mode takes a few dozen minutes for a GUARANTEED piece of 320 gear."

[quote]I'm going to state why I think Iron Banner is a complete waste of time. I'm very angry at this moment, but I am going to try to display my thoughts like a sane person, even though I shouted very loudly after what had happened happened. I have been playing this laggy, Mida infested game mode since Tuesday. Upon reaching rank 5, all I get is a 310 ghost, and 315 gauntlets. I have a 317 ghost. I have 313 gauntlets. [i][b]Is this all I deserve from going through absolute hell all week?[/b][/i] Iron banner is no breeze when playing solo. Having to play against teams of 6, laggers, quickscopers, conspiracy theory d blink shotgunners, and Mida multi-toolers, this is all that I get? I understand very well that this is an RNG game. But this is unacceptable. To anyone who has reached rank 5, we all deserve something good, guaranteed. Everyone should get one weapon, and one piece of armor that is HIGHER than what they have on, (by a noticeable amount, 4-5 light levels higher then what you have equipped) or AT LEAST equal with good roles. The raid has a challenge mode that guarantees at least one 320 piece of gear. Why doesn't the crucible have this? The crucible is arguably much harder than a raid is. Raids are the same every single time. Every enemy is programmed to do the exact same things. You are fighting a computer with designed intelligence. And although the raid may lag sometimes, the crucible is just as laggy. In PvP, you're fighting real people, with real intelligence. Why do we get rewarded [i]less[/i] for considerably [i]harder[/i] challenges? Iron banner takes days of grinding for a chance at a 320 piece of gear. Challenge mode takes a few dozen minutes for a GUARANTEED piece of 320 gear. Additionally, many of my friends have moved on to the Xbox One, and I cannot do the raid anymore. LFG is such a pain that I refuse to use it. I'm not playing with people from a different country just to lag and get kicked, or have some stuck up tight-ass boot me because he wants to control everything I do. I can't afford a new Xbox One. Not everyone can just go out and buy a new console because other people are. Edit: We're Trending... Please keep commenting your thoughts and opinions about the loot from iron banner. Edit 2: http://youtu.be/nDtdJBolvlk In this video MoreConsole talks about loot, and addresses some of my ideas. Is Iron Banner Worth It? Edit 3: I don't have a trials/raid team. Please stop telling me to play those. If I could, I would. Edit 4: Over 1000+ replies. Nice. Please keep commenting and sharing your iron banner experiences, especially if you want Bungie to improve the quality of their loot system. [spoiler]And to those of you who comment negatively, just know you're only bumping my post and that I appreciate it! (:[/spoiler] Edit 5: I've heard a few suggestions (excuse me, I don't remember the fellow guardians who came up with these ideas, but you'll know who you are) from a few of you, and to be frank these are some good ideas. One guardian said getting a guaranteed 320 across all three characters (only getting one 320 even if you've played on all three characters) should be implemented. I believe that end of match rewards should only be given to those who are on the top 3 of their team's leaderboards. Those who give the most effort get the most in return. This would encourage guardians to play the objective more often, and of course just play better overall, (capture the zones!) not just sit afk in a match to get to rank 5. Another guardian suggested implementing a "challenge" mode into the crucible as a weekly bounty/quest, similar to the raid's challenge mode. This should obviously not be a task that just anyone can complete, but at the same time it shouldn't be harder than the raid's challenge mode. Any more ideas? These would all be excellent improvements to iron banner in my opinion, what are your thoughts?[/quote] I don't know about you... but I would hardly consider this a [i]hell[/i] of a week. A bad week of gaming is better than any week you have to spend overseas worrying about IEDs, running into a burning building to save a person or studying and stressing nonstop about college; paying rent and feeding your family; being a cop in 2016; etc, etc. You aren't entitled to anything while playing a video game that has a loot system. While I'm writing this reply a buch of young children are starving and/or stavred to death. Shit could be worse. 100x worse. Be thankful you even have electricity and running water.

Guess what, you don't [b]deserve[/b] anything. This is a video game.

Xbox 1 has been out long enough you could have saved 3$ a week and have enough to buy it. If you dont have one its your fault.

Well you don't get rep by just completing a match. At least you have to win a game after 5 loses to get rep and redeem the 5 medallions you got from your previous 5 loses. Remove any bounty that requires to just complete a game, or complete a game and something else like get top 3 in your fireteam or a minimum of kills with a weapon. Getting to rank 5 is not walk in the park because it is still a grind for most of us. Grinding should reward something substantially good. If IB has not changed next time I will pass because it's not worth it. So more fun to all you fellow guardians that will play it. More power to the mass and less care for the thinking 1%. You don't need us anyways.
