EDIT: This thread was changed and added as a poll for community to vote for or against. Since [i]any changes to the game affect the community, it is only fair that [b]any[/b] suggestions that change the playability of the game that are implemented should have the input of the community since it does change the game for them as well. Please look for and find the poll: "[b]Destiny UGC Weapon design contest poll.[/b]" thank you. [/i]Bungie.... I know you catch tons of flak for "being silent" with community. I know there are rules, and stipulations, and things we may not be aware of due to contract stipulations and fine print titled article 7b section 412 paragraph 6 line 121. I'd really like to know if Bungie, with of course community having to relinquish any/all rights to creative content under any UGC (user generated content) regulations by you, if we or any of the community would be allowed by you and Bungie to have a contest where the community could enter a contest and submit weapon designs in the categories you've already established in the game. With of course Bungie and it's developers chosing 3 of the top designed weapons to be implemented into the game by you for not exotic but just "legendary" weapon bountys. It is a rare thing, a developer, involving itself on that depth with its community that would be in and of itself legendary to take it's community and implement such a developer to community connection. It would reinvigorate your community, RE-establish a much needed connection, and not only show that Bungie is more than just any developer to its community for Destiny but also show Bungie just how passionate your community is about your game. I see players leaving. I see reviews speaking some half truths. But I don't see a game that doesn't have the potential to become legend. And I see a developer who can become more than legendary. So yes. This is directed exactly towards Bungie. It is directed exactly to its developers. And it's directed towards any and all at Bungie who have the ability to involve the community on a level that most developers dare not go.
