If people would stop accepting the bare minimum effort and being shit on by Luke smith, this game could be great. Look at Diablo 3. It was -blam!-ing garbage. They let go the asshole in charge, hired new people, listened to the consumers of their product and fixed the game. This is being posted as replies, figured I'd make it a post. Props to however took the time to write it out. Great ideas, easy ideas. Get off your asses bungie and actually work. [b]edit[/b] some personal ideas: 1) have elemental balls drop (lol) as additional hard raid rewards. You can infuse these into any weapon or armor to give it the burn/resistance of the corresponding colour. They way raid weapons aren't the only good, viable weapons out there, but people still get what they want: primary burns. 2) nightfall has the XP boost again (and the flaming head), nightfall and weekly give you the big increase in rep. 3) weekly strike playlist: first play through grants you guaranteed strange coins (just like before) as additional reward. Add all strikes into rotation. Lessen the amount of marks you get from it, but no limit cap per week. [u]like bungie originally said[/u] [quote][quote]Well, not entirely. Nothing can be perfect, but I do believe perhaps if there was an update like this, a majority of recent issues can be solved.
