I came UP yesterday

:wow:

Beat the Weekly Night Fall and got 6 Strange Coins... then we ran the Weekly Strike (same mission) on level 28 and get 9 Strange Coins and some Shards. Leveled up to Dead Orbit 3 (I got Crucible Rank 3 earlier in the day as well) and I ended up getting that SUROS Regime off of a Legendary Engram

:win:

Yesterday was a good day

Look man why not explain it to him. I had to have the dudes in my party break it down for me.

Don't act like bungie didn't do a shyt job of explaining shyt on this game.

If it wasn't for forums and friends I wouldn't know half of this shyt.

Like I didn't know how to obtain the light gear.

I just kept running missions instead of doing strikes.

Also didn't know about doing more bounties and joining a clan.
Cats be on some snob shyt. I swear. Lol

You explain it for him then. I really didn't even understand what he was asking...

So far, after like 20 matches, more or less, over two days, iron banner hasn't been worth the effort. And with the fact that drops are extremely rare, the bounties are dumb hard especially if you're playing to win, and you don't gain faction rep when you lose leading people every fukking match to quit out when the lead gets big makes it a waste of time.

I'll join whoever wants to squad up but I'll try to use this week to focus on a third character and levelling up my exotics

Yeah a lot of the design options bungie went with don't make sense but I'm still as hopelessly addicted as LevelCap. They're starting to look amateur at this. There were better implementations of some of these same principles in the Halo games.

They have a lot of work on their hands or they're going to see Titanfall levels of player drop-off.

It's cumbersome to store and manage items/weapons.
It's irritating having to go to the Tower for everything.
The game needs more missions available or more creative challenges to beat them... not lets just make the enemies weaker to this damage type
Give the special events more of a reason to play them... they made the Queen's Missions useless after nerfing the Shards from the Gear, Iron Banner looking suspect now too.

the only thing i agree with the vid: something should be done about leavers...i get tired of starting a game and next thing you know, you're outnumbered cause people left when they started dying...other than that, i've had a ball in iron banner, and can tell the difference between that and crucible...i die a lot faster/easier in iron banner compared to the reg crucible...

also, i dont think losers should get rep...the point of the iron banner is to be the best of the best and win the game....it's not about k/d or individual score, it's about winning...if your team doesnt win, you shouldnt get rep....if they add more game modes to the banner, it should be the same way...only the winner should get rep....

isnt that how it should be though?...the banner is for the best of the best, not for everybody...so the bounties should be tougher, rep should only go to the winners, etc....if they dont feel they ready for it, go play the reg crucible and get they weight up....

also, if people quit cause they losing, that says more about them and this punkass gamer generation....they dont want challenges, they want the game to be easy, want rewards even if they dont win/finish shyt, etc....no, that's not how the game should work..that's not how life works, but for whatever reason society wants to teach people that shyt, and it shows in gaming....in life, sometimes you lose and dont get shyt cause you lost, that's ok...
