1. Disagree. 2. Yes. 3. The problems afflicting a launch this big, that has brought such sweeping change to this game have been surprisingly minor. The big problems are progression system problems that can't be fixed quickly, not bugs and glitches. Bungie's response to those has been surprisingly swift. The change needed to be made because the quest as it was poorly designed, and was going to become impossible to complete for people coming to the game weeks-to-months from now: a. Ace of Spades is a signature weapon that was used to help sell the expansion, and whose quest is really part of the campaign. It should have been treated as such. b. The requirement to get 5 hand cannon kills on Invaders in Gambit was devised by someone who clearly had never played the game mode. c. The meta in Gambit is quickly becoming that PVP is fought out with quick-killing special weapons, heavy weapons and Supers. No one fights with primaries unless they are out of ammo and have no other choice. d. Add to that the fact that Invaders have an overshield....and you're creating a situation where no one other than a high skill PVP player is going to be able to succeed come Christmastime when the meta has hardened. e. So what would have happened is that you would have had large numbers of players simply quitting the quest in frustration....possibly souring them on Gambit permanently....for an exotic weapon that arguably should have been the reward for completing the Campaign since Uldren's possession of it (and its being used to kill Cayde) factored so prominently IN It.
