I was completely fooled by this so called "seasonal reward". You'd think that something which requires days of grinding to achieve would net us something good. Maybe an exotic engram...or a powerful gear reward of some sort?
Nope...you basically get crap low level duplicates and a crap emblem for all the time you've wasted. It is the biggest letdown for the time you've wasted grinding in IB. I am absolutely floored that I wasted so much time in iron banner for practically nothing!
DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME!

Pretty sweet emblem honestly haha

It's a video game, you're going to be wasting your time regardless of the reward.

LOUD NOISES !!!!

You can look and tell that its an emblem from the get go 😂😂😂

17 RepliesPeople finished the whole seasonal IB thing in 1-2 days and got everything it offered and you call it a grind...lol Remember, a season means at least half a year. Oh and by the way: I‘m hating on the game...but playing it without any fun just for loot is re****ed as shit. Stop playing this PoS if you don‘t have fun playing it, idiot.

1 ReplyI'll clear this up since the Bungie Defense Force is out in full force. Grinding to get stuff is fine, [i]if[/i] you know what you are working towards. This system is grinding for a chance at random gear, which sounds ok if they had a system to limit dupes it might be ok, but they don't. Not even a way to choose weapons or armor. Why did they take a step back in so many areas with a sequel? They are fixing things that weren't broken. There was nothing wrong with the previous system, earn rep towards known IB loot and random IB loot possibility at the conclusion of matches. They turned it into another frustrating token collecting RNG mini-game and it sucks, plain and simple.

4 RepliesGetting an emblem is an utter disgrace, that may sound harsh but it's the truth.

Don't waste your time pretty much sums up IB in general. It's all low level shit that can't be even infused to gain a single level.

8 RepliesEdited by TheBeejAbides: 10/13/2017 10:18:20 PMI Played so much IB in D1 that it was literally my favorite thing to do. I find this Crucible to be so boring and unfulfilling that i didnt even care that IB came around this time. In fact, i barely care anout playing this game at all. I did, however, jump into a few IB matches and i gotta say: still boring and unfulfilling. There's almost nothing pulling me into this game right now... last night i played GTA5 instead. The night before that i played NBA 2k18. The night before that, i watched youtube videos about aliens instead of taking up my guns and killing them in D2. Theres just nothing here. Its such an empty shell of a game. I personally find it less interesting and compelling than Vanilla D1. I dont think that it is a better game than its predecessor. Edited for spelling

4 RepliesEdited by Nastleen: 10/13/2017 9:23:31 PMI'm done playing D2 I think. I had the absolute WORST time playing crucible today. It isn't fun. The spawn are absolutely broken, I've spawned in the middle of firefights. Not to mention, today I spawned and was being shot at and died one and the other time I was half health off the rez. Trials matchmaking is absolutely trash. Why am I, an average player playing again someone multiple times!!! Matched with them like 5 times, who has won 375+ trials matches, and then in between people doing double carries with 950+ and 500+ wins. Wtf is that. The raid is nothing but frustrating, others might enjoy it but I don't. More things that I don't want to type because it doesn't matter anyways because it'll fall of deaf ears.

5 RepliesThe loot system is seriously broken in IB. Im 17 IB engrams in on my titan. The only armor I have received is FOUR arm peices and one mark. Something is definetly wrong with the loot algorithms. FOUR friggen arm drops across 17 engrams. What are the friggen odds of that??

1 ReplyEdited by Locker: 10/14/2017 3:42:04 AMForbes summed up what’s wrong with iron banner quite well : good read . It seems as though most news outlets have similar opinions with all generally negative except for the armor .

I still enjoy playing Crucible more in D2 than in D1, however, the loot system is still broken. Not only in Iron Banner, but all Crucible modes. You receive so much more loot playing PVE activities than you do playing Crucible. If all you want to do is run Crucible, you'll get rewarded WAY less than just running public events or strikes for the same amount of time. Now, again, I do enjoy playing Crucible for the most part, but the loot system can be vastly improved. The system is similar to D1, where there are so many other activities you could play that would net you better rewards. Just having the Call to Arms is not enough, there should be more frequent legendary and exotic drops. I'd like to have fun AND feel like I am getting rewarded well for my time, which simply isn't the case with Crucible right now. You can run Call to Arms for a powerful reward, and then hope for an extremely rare exotic, but otherwise, you get the same crap items. Even tokens are difficult to come by in Crucible, so you're not ranking up with Shaxx as quickly as you would by just going into a planet and opening chests, playing public events, doing patrols, etc. To end, I'll go back to what was said a lot during the D2 Beta: PVE and PVP should be completely separated. Bungie also needs to stop messing around and give control to their community by adding a true CUSTOM GAME SYSTEM into Crucible. I am not talking about private matches, I'm talking custom games where you can play the way you want and with the settings you want. Want to play rumble? 2v2, 3v3, 6v6? Want to play mayhem or a gametype with no supers? Want to play hand cannons only? Want to only play on one map? We need customs so that we can at least play what we want and make our own fun without having to wait for Bungie to update the game. This is the same company that originally made Halo, which had a tremendous multiplayer experience. Think of Halo 3 that came out TEN years ago. Had so many custom options, but not only that, it had Forge and Theater. I'm not saying we should have a Forge mode and Theater in Destiny (although it would be nice), I'm simply asking for customs. Let us choose the game options like we could back in the good ol' Halo days. I think a custom system could seriously help this game and would put the power back in the hands of the players. Bungie could then focus more effort on PVE content without having to appease the every request of the PVP community. Give us the opportunity to play the way we want and divert the studio's attention to delivering quality PVE content. The player base will handle PVP. Thanks!

2 RepliesI did in this in the first two days fairly easily. No more than 4 hrs of pvp at most. Exaggerate much?

I was disappointed with the emblem reward too. I know IB is also about rng...but I've played my titan for 3 days hoping to get armors and all i got is only 1 chest armor... always getting the same weapons. my friends playerd for only 8 hours and were able to complete their set. i feel it's kinda unfair that i've played for so many hours and keep getting the same weapons with same perks and just dismantle them. loot sucks

Iron banner in year three was about growing in light if you weren’t max. Iron banner should drop rewards that will increase your power . This iteration was terrible
-
I Concur, I just reached the first Milestone in Iron Banner and all I got was a new Emblem!!!! along with two pieces of low power Armor i already had... Efffin Ridiculous... All that time spent for nothing, you think they could reward you with an Exoctic or something. This is How Bungie and Destiny losses players to other and new games that come out. Why stay loyal? They should of stayed with Destiny 1 format for Iron Banner or at least make the reward system like they did for the Faction rally, there actual grinding got you good and more rewards. At this point i dont even feel like playing Iron Banner anymore, why when you can do and grind out Heroic public events and get Exotics. Bungie keep effin up, i tell ya
