I’ve been a lover for sparrow racing ever since the first time it came out. Shame it’s the same one as last year which is all bungie seem to do now days, just copy and past everything from previous years. but would love to see SRL come back next year
Year 3 of D1 was so much better than D2 is now. These are the best reasons in my opinion.
You could do any activity and progress to 400 Light.
Exotic engrams, strike specific loot, faction packages, raids, and Archon Forge drops were all guaranteed to be above your light level and up to 400 Light.
You used skeleton keys for strike specific loot, instead of running the same strike a hundred times.
Infusion was easy, cheap, and you could use extra gear to infuse your other characters. You didn't have to play the game 24/7 like you do now.
There were Tier 12 armor builds. Cooldowns were fast. The adjustments for Mobility, Armor, and Recovery were in the skill tree and easy to change on the fly. Skill trees were more complex and customizable too.
Shaders actually worked correctly and changed the color of your armor. Not just parts of it.
Class items were unique, and sold by the Speaker.
Factions actually existed.
Vendor gear updates actually happened, and vendor rolls changed weekly.
With Age of Triumph, all the raids were updated and made relevant.
The raids weren't overloaded with annoying mechanics.
The game was actually fun, instead of being a boring, unrewarding, grindy wannabe WoW clone.
And most importantly, the game was made for EVERYONE, not just YouTubers and elitists that play the game 24/7.
Your upvotes don't pay Bungie's bills and as long as they're making money off you, they have no reason to implement it so don't hold your breath. Take an upvote anyway.
It's a no from me. It was average at best and NOT why I bought this game. I'd prefer they focused their resources on the core game not short lived distractions like this.
I think the people that don't want it are hilarious.
"No! Don't bring back SRL because I want more of my stuff!"
Never mind that more people enjoyed SRL than raids... raids are just the same 2% playing them over and over to be able to say "I completed it 342 times!"
Never mind that SRL takes less effort than that haunted forest garbage we get constantly.
Never mind that baking cookies has zero fun gameplay involved, but takes away time from new content.
Never mind that almost every fps in existence has racing as a side gig for money or loot.
Never mind that there is lore backing up SRL.
Never mind that ifyou don't want to play it you don't have to.
And never mind that the code already exists and it's a hell of a lot better content than "go shoot these vex cubes and plant these transponders"
What a lame post.
People are complaining about too many things! Too much stuff needs to be fixed.
And you ask them for a SRL mode?!! ARE YOU KIDDING ME! ...
These upvotes too smh!!!
The closest thing we have to Sparrow racing in D2 is the 2nd raid race of Scourge. So yeah, an official racing circuit with matching prizes would be welcome.
