So apparently Bungie wants us to stop playing. They went and nerfed the ascendant shard drops from dismantling the legendaries you get from the QUeen's mission. WTF? We had to do Bounties and shit, and you always got the same gear. I got lucky with a sniper but it is still annoying.
Bungie is crazy. This game won't make it to 1 year. Let alone 5 or 10.

Yeah. They warned about it. Seems they are testing the servers. Bungie has also addressed a lot of things. They will basically nerf the crap out of everything. Auto-Rifles, Shotguns. I think the only gun left untouched will be snipers and Scouts will be getting buffed. So at least that is good. Now I fear Scout Rifles will become Halo 4 DMR 2.0. They will make strikes and raids give better drops as well as make strikes less annoying/difficult.They claim they didn't mean to make boss's have so much life and dealing out so much dmg.

I like all of these changes EXCEPT for nerfing all of the farming sites.
There were 3 or 4 good ones. I JUST got to the point to where I am level 20 and "it's time to farm." What do they do? Nerf the farming sites.
FFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!
That's lame. If a player wants to spend 4 hours farming a cave in the game to get 5-10 legendary pieces of equipment, f*cking let them. It's not like they are getting that in just 10 minutes. They still have to work for it. Figuring out farming sites is a skill as long as it is not an exploit. they set the spawns to be that fast so they clearly wanted people to farm those places. I think someone up the chain b*tched about it because they want people to have to waste much much more time in the game.
But that is good to read about strikes and raids. Awesome. Glad they are fixing that shit. For me, the hardest bounty was the "don't die in a strike." I got that bounty, eventually, but it was stupid difficult. I ended up doing the first strike with some level 20+ dudes and I didn't die with that group.

I can understand why they want to get rid of vast farming spots. They want to limit leveling up some to make the game spread out further, but they hit a roadblock where if you're going to do that then you need content or a mechanic that will entertain people while they are leveling up more.
PvP is good and can definitely help with that but I think they need options. Better side quest missions, more original weekly content. I honestly think adding a sparrow racing feature would go a long way.

I finished that bounty, no problem, when I came back as a higher level. It's no problem if you more than triple your armor rating. 😐
I agree with everything you've said. They need more content. People like me do not like playing PvP stuff for more than probably 40-50 hours, total. It gets old VERY fast. I like single player stuff with LOTS of stuff to do (with the possibility of co-op...I love co-op). Give me more Skyrim-like stuff and less Call of Duty stuff and I'll continue to play this game and buy the expansions. 🙂
Edit - Yes, races. For in-game currency. Allow players to "sweeten the pot", with their own paper. 😄

Woot bought me the Sorus Regime. I now get to spam an exotic auto rifle yay. Was gonna take me a couoke of more days to get a legendary one because of the marks cap. At least got one before the autos got nerfed. Its neat.Also got the pulse rifle exotic bounty.
I need a life lol
It probably is, but Bungie is buffing it along with my thorn canon, so I view it as a long time investment. Didn;t have mnuch choice. It was either that or an exotic shotty that I heard sucked balls. I like my legendary one. Its amazing, even if it ain't full auto. And the other one was the thorn, which I already have.
The requirements are ok,,,except for the second one about completing 25 marks. Thank god I didnt cap the vanguard marks before the weekend. Gotta coimplete this one in time to buy something from effin' xur.
