A small light level boost is fine, but free end game gear without having to play is scub teir. It's not worth getting upset over, but it is entirely dumb as gently caress.

GoGoGadgetChris posted:Why on earth should Trials Rewards and Raid Rewards be available to those who don't complete the activities? Because Trials rewards are hardly available to anyone, especially on PC. Trials needs a whole re-think, because as it is there's no incentive for over 90% of the people who play to even try. But the current Claymore situation shows that the game design team is listening mostly to people who are good at Crucible already, but suggest that it should be easier for them to retain their dominance without trying so hard by making good guns that fall exclusively into their hands.

Waffle House posted:Like it was cool that people who didn't play Trials got Trials guns, but unfortunately that meant that nobody plays Trials Nobody played Trials either way, having access to them without slamming your face in the door of hypersperg Destiny PvPers was neat. Similarly the numbers for raid completion/participation probably aren't a great deal higher than they were in D1, since guided games are a trash fire. Somewhere in the middle like a minimum attempt requirement to garner Trials/Raid gear from those emblems, like a boss done once a week or a single Trials card completed seems like a decent in between.

PC Trials loving sucks because you have to win 7 games in a row without ramming into one of the sweaty groups getting their own flawless/doing paid carries/account recoveries OR you just cheese it with VPN which defeats the whole purpose of PvP rewards. Comp is at least in a better place because your games are pretty decently matched now that people have had time to sort out into their respective MMR brackets and groups get artificially inflated MMR.

What I said is that Trials needs a re-think. Whether that includes ranking, reducing the emphasis on flawless, etc. I didn't say people should be able to get stuff without playing. I said the rules for play need to be changed.

I'll play all your dumbass campaigns and enjoy it, but fuckkkk please don't force me to do it on all 3 characters. Warmind at least gave out snazzy exotics for each completion, but the vanilla and Osiris campaigns were an unrewarding slog

Trials is still a complete disaster even on console. Since it's STILL peer 2 peer networking instead of dedicated servers, it's very very easy to network manipulate. Most of your paid trials carry twitch streamers are DDosing one or more players on the opposing team in a manner that makes it look like random connection issues rather than a targeted attack. I think Bungie has gotten a little better at detecting that kind of stuff, but it still requires tracking a lot of data from the offender to discern between random lovely connection issues vs. probable targeted attack and it's easy to circumvent even that by just jumping between PSN/Xbox accounts every week. It's really funny watching some of these dudes with 1000+ viewers commenting about how good they are because the other team "just quit out" at the sight of them. This game needs dedicated servers really bad just like every other modern multiplayer game has had standard for the past 7+ years. Even Call of Duty has dedicated multiplayer servers/matchmaking which only falls back to p2p if the servers are down or whatever. Avalanche fucked around with this message at 17:51 on May 24, 2018 |

DDoSing through a dedicated server is uh, much harder since you'd have to basically hack into Bungie's servers to find the IP of your opponents which would be a federal crime.
