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.

  • Hang in there! I feel the pain but in my case it is due to Gjallarhorn and Hunger of Crota. These rocket launchers are yet to drop for me. The Crota boots also took me a long time to get. Today, I have 2 Hawkmoons. One from Crota's End hard mode and the other from the POE 28 Big Chest. I enjoy that gun! I hope you'll get yours soon. In my case, I try not to keep any hope as I am past the point of frustration. I try to focus on the fun I have playing w/ the team (raids). Whenever RNGesus decides to gift me, I'll welcome it.

  • 1 in 10 odds don't guarantee the drop you want after 10 drops. Each roll is 1 in 10 every time. It's the same reason that you don't always get heads then tails or tails then heads every time you flip a coin. Every flip is 1 in 2 ever time which means you can still get heads after flipping heads.

    • Quoting World of Warcraft here in terms of percentage drops on items. I remember the really good gear would have a 1% drop rate, I think the legendary drop rate would be .01%? Check out Wowhead.com sometime on the epic and legendary drops... It's sad, even the rare drops.

    • I'm glad RNG makes it difficult to get everything, because it does help to keep me playing and there can't be many games I've played as much as Destiny. I've more than got my money's worth and I'm still enjoying it. Far from having all the exotics too. Don't care, having fun without them.

    • Gamblers fallacy, every prior drop has no impact on the next, just because you've gotten every other exotic, doesn't mean your odds will increase for the one you're missing. With that being said I feel like bungie did "weigh" the exotics and make some more common than others

        I guess I'm kinda sad I'll never use the Hawkmoon in its full glory but hey, thank god the hand cannons are getting nerfed! To all PSN players - was the Hawkmoon ever a big problem like thorn? Or no?

        • Two questions 1. Where did it ever say that everything dropped equally? 2. Where was it confirmed that they deleted ghorn from xur?

        • I'm missing 4th horseman. Think I've had a few monte carlos and I've only ever found one hawkmoon. But same with Gally only ever found one, same with thunderlord, same with no land beyond, never found a suros used xur, only ever one red death, one hard light, one TLW. Just the way it works. I find multiple exotic armors, very few weapons I've gotten multiple of. Not going to complain I'm missing 4th horseman.
