Nearly 1000 hours played between my four level 34 characters (yes four, deleted one of my hunters to level a warlock...), a Grimmoire score of 3550, and every exotic in the game EXCEPT the one I have wanted the most since day 1. Hawkmoon, one of the PS4 exclusives...
3 nightfalls a week, regular raids on all characters, hundreds of top level strikes, PoE, ToO every week on all three characters flawless...
Xbox users will start getting theses so called "exclusives" before PS4 players. You know, the weapons that were supposed to be perks / bonuses for playing destiny on the PS4... What's the point if you can't get them? Everyone knows that as soon as they unlock the PS4 exclusives for Xbox users, that someone is going to immediately do a nightfall or open a legendary engram and get Hawkmoon, which is BS. The past 100 exotic rolls that I have had, have been guns that I already had drop.
At this point, it's just deception. "Let's market PS4 exclusives that are AWESOME to have, but the best one out of all of them, Hawkmoon, the most coveted and sought after gun, we'll make it impossible to get!"
obviously it's a ploy to keep players playing and searching for this illusive prize and another reason for Xbox users to come back to the game once the "exclusives" are available to them. Because, they market and sell PlayStation exclusives as something awesome and desirable to get. However, never in their marketing or selling did they mention that although PlayStation exclusives DO exists, they will be impossible to get for some players due to the weighted RNG system.
If Bungie can make Gjallarhorn disappear from Xur's inventory when it shows up by mistake, then they can make him sell Hawkmoon to PS4 players. How hard would it be to create another NPC in the tower that sells PS4 exclusives for PS4 players? I don't care if the requirements are super involved, even if it was a crazy long quest line. EVEN if I had to pay real money for the damn thing, I would.
The "R" in RNG is not equally weighted.
For a simple example: if there were only 10 total exotics in the game, and Hawkmoon was one of them, one would expect to get one on average every 10 drops.
But if the system is rigged so that Hawkmoon only has a 1% chance of dropping, and the other 9 a 11.1% chance of dropping, they can keep you chasing it for a long time.
Then, once you get it once, the odds to get it again can be reset to 10%, enhancing your odds of getting it again sooner.
So while it is still random, the system is rigged to keep people chasing longer
So, weapon odds are different for everyone, making it unfair as we all paid the same damn price for this game.
And for all of you scrubs that will just respond by calling me a name or attempting to make fun of me behind your computer screen - I'm gay, I like dicks, I take it in the ass mouth ear, I'm a fgt (wtf is this?) and you have all been with my mom, I cry every second of every day I'm a big baby bitch -blam!- and of course I like dicks (again, for emphasis), Oh and yes I am a salt factory, that's all I do.

Maybe once Xbox gets PS exclusives, Xur would probably sell Hawkmoon
-
The only weapon I'm missing is Necro... Suck it up, you have bad luck.
-
Must've had about 6 Hawkmoons now
-
Sucks to be you. I've dismantled so many hawkmoons and gjallarhorns that crybabies like you are just crumbs on the community table.
-
I'd rather have a chance to get it, rather than not have a chance at all...just sayin

Edited by Xx_69Jesus420_xX: 7/28/2015 4:24:19 PMLol got hawkmoon at about 80 hours and was my first exotic-say your prayers to RNGESUS and hope he listens
-
I have 2 ^_^
-
I think you need to know how many of a certain weapon is owned by the characters and not base your example off what you think. You didn't figure out anything. Companies are always trying figure out ways to keep and get consumers. Nothing new.
-
Satire ?
-
The game was designed to keep us playing like a slot machine
-
I think hawkmoon was my 4th exotic.
-
They arent exclusives, [b]TIMED[/b] exclusives is the word
-
I got my Hawkmoon about 1 moth and a half ago then have piled up 3 more since 2 from nightfalls and 1 dim cucible
-
Is this pizza castle
-
Good news is that when the year 1 content exclusivity contract expires in September the exclusives will be in Xur's inventory. So anyone on either side will be able to pick up those awesome weapons.
-
Really? Why even mention Xbox in this post? There is no reason. Do you want ps4 exclusives to [i]never[/i] come to Xbox until you get your hawkmoon? That's just ridiculous. I hope I get mine before you get it.
-
Ok buddy

Edited by DeltaZulu77: 7/28/2015 3:42:34 PMIf you flip a coin and it comes up heads, it has a 50% chance of that happening. What's the odds you'll get heads if you flip it again?
-
Quit whining about RNG. I have maybe 400 hours and I've got 4 Hawkmoon. It's randomized, so so what if it's weighted. It's only fair that better exotics are harder to get.
-
Someone sounds mad they don't have Hawkmoon and want to blame everything else. I have Hawkmoon. Got it from a Nightfall. Its possible. You just need to get lucky. I also haven't done a Raid in months.
-
Just to throw some salt at you I got hawk moon on the 4th day of the game :)
-
Have you ever gotten No Land Beyond? Have you ever seen someone else get Hawkmoon? ... Are you Hispanic?
-
RNG is based off your gamer tag, there is proof of this. You guys are under a misconception
-
RNG is just a bad system. While it solves a lot of problems that other "real" MMOs face, it creates its own monster in the process. Anyway, I'm still chasing a few, but passively. I gave up the active hunt long ago, that includes shaders.

If you have a dice that has numbers 1-10 it does not mean that in ten rolls of that dice 1 rolls. Every time you roll the dice, you have a 1/10 chance in getting 1. If you don't get it, that changes nothing. Next time you will still have a 1/10 chance getting 1. So it is possible to never get 1, and that means that the reward system is balanced. [spoiler]this is very basic stuff, but op seems confused about random etc.[/spoiler]
