TL;DR Bungie needs to put the game in our hands and work around our time rather than timegating every piece of endgame content to cater to their own wallets. Make this the post they look at to discover what their actions have created. Imagine you're coming home from work, you've been working a lot of hours recently, and you come home excited; "I finally have time to commit to doing that master challenge on Macrocosm today!" Only to find out however that the challenge, just like all other endgame content, is timegated weekly. You miss out, you have to wait weeks already but you might not even have time then because of your busy schedule. This, on top of the Battleye crashes youve been getting in your raids and getting bored because you have no fresh weekyl content to grind anymore, it all infuriates you. So many of us have been there, WHY isn't anything happening to fix this? The short and sweet, Bungie, like any other company, wants to stretch out your playtime to benefit their statistics to use as they please. And the more time you play, the more chances they have at making money... which essentially means they didn't make this content for you, they made it for themselves. Doesn't that make you feel used? If that wasn't enough evidence, think about the lack of infrastructure they have as their customer support. I know I've been creating tickets to get my email verified forever, because it never sends it to my email. There's all the simplistic game-breaking bugs they could be fixing that are totally fixable in a single workday, but they'd rather make sure you can't do any substantial amount of damage so you don't finish their content 'too fast' even though YOU created the build and did all the work to get to endgame content. They have made everything this inefficient on purpose, not to keep the game balanced, but to make sure you don't stop stuffing their wallets too soon. WHEN WILL THEY LISTEN TO THEIR PLAYERS We haven't rallied yet, we haven't combined our voices, we have an ample chance to do so. This isn't being negative, this is how we get our opinions heard; I'm sure you've heard about what citizens do in France when they don't like what their government does. What all does our solution entail? What do we really want? What would make it feel like we're actually getting something done and what would make this game feel better in our hands instead of theirs? Here's my small list -More pinnacles, OR only pinnacle gear we need. We only get so many pinnacles per character a week, but I have run out of pinnacles multiple weeks and only gotten 3 out of the possible 8 I need. This is very inefficient and I feel that either option would benefit all players considering the effort and fireteam coordination we put into grabbing these engrams -Raid loot upon every completion. you completed the raid, you get the rewards. Some things do feel like they were meant to have a rotation such as artifice armor, but after you do your one weekly raid instance, going through the effort of completing this hard content again yields... jack diddly squat. Why? Why should we get NOTHING for our efforts? Many of us are only farming one or two weapons anymore because we are completely caught up on gear, some players only care about one raid's drops. Our time should MEAN something! -challenges/master challenges credit upon completion. Seriously Bungie? You have these challenges that we can do but we can't do it on our own time? This has to be the most egregious offense and make no mistake, it is OFFENSIVE to our time, lives, and our own work. You had no reason to timegate this, if WE go through the long and arduous effort and spend an hour or two per challenge, we want that credit. We don't have time to wait on you and your weekly rotations for everything, WE need the ability to do this when WE have time. Your demographic is only made up of so many teenagers with a summer break, most of us work year round and have busy schedules. You don't even play your own games hardly so whose opinion really matters most? Hmm? -timegated subclass fragments, looking at you stasis. Stasis has been a subclass for how long, two years? Is there ANY reason we should be limited to two fragments per week anymore? You already nerfed stasis into the ground so why does it matter that we can get the fragments when we want? I'm honestly sad, stasis was my favorite and then you ruined it, and the fragments are STILL timegated so its not like I can set aside one day to try to enjoy it by grinding out the remaining fragments. This is archaic, you make yourself so busy with 'balancing mechanics' that you don't update things like this It's time we stand up, guardians. Make this the post they look at, lets tip the scales a little. This is OUR game, not theirs. We deserve more of a say, we deserve better customer support, Bungie needs to start doing stuff for us instead of their wallets. Show them how much we LOATHE how they treat us and this game we love. The only other option is a boycott, but I don't see that happening quite yet.
