[b]Summary for those who don't want to read the whole thing:[/b]
[spoiler]It would be helpful to separate Feedback of Crucible nerfs and buffs vs ideas for improving the overall game into separate forum categories called [b]Balancing[/b] and [b]Suggestions[/b][/spoiler]
As I'm sure you are all aware, the category of Feedback is filled with people calling for nerfs and buffs on weapons. I find these to be necessary, and inevitable, as PVP is bound to be eternally unbalanced in all video games ever. But since it becomes all you see on feedback, it becomes the assumption that all we want is changes to crucible. [b]This is not true. [/b] Feedback is more so about suggestions and ideas for future updates of the game, like new crucible modes, exotic weapons, and enemies.
So my idea is to split the two very different sides of feedback: One that deals with PVP balancing to be titled [b]Balancing[/b] with the text underneath it reading [i]Complain about getting killed here[/i] to be amusing and a new version of [b]Feedback[/b] or even call that something different, [b]Suggestions.[/b] The word feedback seems more to be about commenting on changes and the quality of the game, something rarely done (besides people raging about how the game is dumb)[spoiler]Then why are you on the forums???[/spoiler]
I think separating the two different and important lines of thought in Feedback will help forum users be able to see what they are looking for and help some non-crucible-nerf ideas actually get shown. Just a thought, that will probably get buried because Suggestions and Balancing aren't separate.
Anyway, like and bump if you agree, and thanks as always!
