Nice loot system ya got there Bungie.

Most of these are pretty recent, in fact, two of the three pictures with exotics (truth and mida) happened within the last hour or two. You're incentivizing poor play, and that's all there is to it. This goes beyond "RNG"; I have NEVER, in over 800 crucible matches, seen the top players get a legendary, let alone an exotic. I have ALWAYS seen the bottom three players get loot, particularly legendaries and exotics. This isn't RNG - at this point, it is blatant that you offer a higher chance for better gear to players who play poorly. Fix it. I might not deserve a legendary or exotic for a 5.0 game, but Tommy Terribad sitting at the bottom with a .5 KD, who was nothing but a detriment to the team, definitely deserves nothing as well. Edit: It seems like this topic is going over some peoples' heads. If the loot system was truly random, there wouldn't be such a strong correlation between poor performance and being rewarded well. If the system was completely RNG, then I would notice just as many instances of people at the top of the scoreboard being rewarded well as I do at the bottom of the scoreboard - but I haven't, and the disparity isn't even close. I've never seen, in over 800 games, someone at the top of the scoreboard receive a legendary or exotic; however, as the pictures show, I've seen plenty of occasions where people at the bottom of the scoreboard receive exotics/legendaries, or cases where they'll receive some loot while the top players receive none at all. You can choose to put your hands over your ears and continue to believe that the current system isn't weighted towards those that perform poorly, while myself and others will continue to point out the obvious, which is why this loot system receives so many complaints. People would complain far less if the system was ACTUALLY RANDOM. If it was ACTUALLY RANDOM, the correlation between bad performance and being rewarded well wouldn't be so blatant or consistent.

  • The fact that others almost only see top players get the rewards and some only see the bottom only shows that it's random. I've mostly seen it given out to top players, the only time I've even seen low players get anything was it on banner and shit dropped constantly there anyway.
