CONFIRMED: PlayStation EXCLUSIVES ARE A SCAM!!! RNG is weighted to keep us playing.....

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.

    • If you want hawkmoon so badly then do every activity that could get you it. Three nightfalls, raids on three characters, and PoE and Crucuble.

    • The whole point of RNG is not getting what u want. The whole point is that if u play enough u have to get it right? Wrong no amount played will get u a specific exotic. U can play until destiny's 10 year plan is over and still not get the exotic although that's unlikely it's entirely possible. I have every exotic gun besides 2 elder cipher ones cause I haven't done Poe for 3 weeks and it's just all luck. I got every gun at least twice before I got my last exotic needed Gjallarhorn.

      • Here what I read, I play the game to much and can't get what I want from a random drop. Honestly, go cry somewhere else because you will get no love from anyone here.

          PS4 Exclusives are a lie because you can't get lucky enough to get one and you're afraid you may not get them before Xbox players have access to those in the loot pool. Two things: 1) The Xbox guys have waited patiently to even try to grind for those weapons. Do not fault them for possibly getting it before you. 2) That is how RNG works. I haven't gotten the Gjallarhorn yet, but I'm not about to berate the guys who do have it because of my garbage luck. Shit happens. Lastly, regarding Xur, it was debunked that he was not selling the Gjallarhorn. It was a Photoshop. I understand you're frustrated but please be reasonable.

          [u][b]Steps to recovering from RNG loss.[/b][/u] Guardians, keep in mind — all Guardians grieve differently. Some Guardians will wear their emotions on their sleeve and be outwardly emotional. Others will experience their grief more internally, and may not cry. You should try and not judge how a Guardian experiences their grief, as each person will experience it differently. [b]1. Denial and Isolation[/b] The first reaction to learning of not getting what you wish RNG would give you is to deny the reality of the situation. It is a normal reaction to rationalize overwhelming emotions. It is a defense mechanism that buffers the immediate shock. We block out the words and hide from the facts. This is a temporary response that carries us through the first wave of pain. [b]2. Anger[/b] As the masking effects of denial and isolation begin to wear, reality and its pain re-emerge. We are not ready. The intense emotion is deflected from our vulnerable core, redirected and expressed instead as anger. The anger may be aimed at inanimate objects, complete strangers, friends or family or even other Guardians. Anger may be directed at RNG directly. Rationally, we know RNG is not to be blamed. Emotionally, however, we may resent RNG for causing us pain. Remember, grieving is a personal process that has no time limit, nor one “right” way to do it. [b]3. Bargaining[/b] The normal reaction to feelings of helplessness and vulnerability is often a need to regain control– ◾If only we could decode how RNG works ◾If only we could make RNG do what we want ◾If only we had a way to know what RNG would give us ◾If only Bungie would make Xur sell us the things RNG wont give us Secretly, we may make a deal with God or our higher power. This is a weaker line of defense to protect us from the painful reality. [b]4. Depression[/b] Two types of depression are associated with RNG. The first one is a reaction to practical implications relating to the loss. Sadness and regret predominate this type of depression. This phase may be eased by simple clarification and reassurance. We may need a bit of helpful cooperation and a few kind words. The second type of depression is more subtle and, in a sense, perhaps more private. It is our quiet preparation to separate and to bid our RNG dreams farewell. Sometimes all we really need is a hug. [b]5. Acceptance[/b] Reaching this stage of mourning is a gift not afforded to everyone. An RNG dick punch can be sudden and unexpected and we may never see beyond our anger or denial. It is not necessarily a mark of bravery to resist the inevitable and to deny ourselves the opportunity to make our peace. This phase is marked by withdrawal and calm. This is not a period of happiness and must be distinguished from depression. Coping with RNG loss is ultimately a deeply personal and singular experience — nobody can help you go through it more easily or understand all the emotions that you’re going through. But others can be there for you and help comfort you through this process. The best thing you can do is to allow yourself to feel the grief as it comes over you. Resisting it only will prolong the natural process of healing.
