Continued Enhancement Core and Mod Component Discussion

Hey all, A few weeks back, we talked about Enhancement Cores coming from Gunsmith bounties in the [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/News/Article/47706]TWAB[/url]. I wanted to give a quick update on this, as it also involves Mod Components, which have been a topic of discussion as well. Please note- this is all still in development for Season of Opulence, and could change. [quote]• Originally announced in the TWAB, these bounties would cost Gunsmith materials. This has been changed to Glimmer. • There will be multiple daily bounties to complete, each rewarding one enhancement core and two mod components • There will be two weekly bounties to complete. These will each grant one enhancement core, one mod (Weapon or Armor), and other materials or reputation/rank points depending on the objective of the bounty. • Note: When I say rank points, think Valor or Infamy, **not** Glory.[/quote] The team is continuing to evaluate feedback over mod components, enhancement cores, and rewards all up. Thank you for the continued feedback. We'll give you updates as we have them.

    No, just no. I dont even have time to do all the weekly milestones with only 1 Character. Now you give us even more Bounties. Better give us 3 cores per Milestone instead of more Bounties. Oh and i nearly forgot: REMOVE CORES FROM INFUSION!!! THESE CORES SHOULD MEANT TO BE FOR MASTERWORKING, JUST LIKE BEFORE. HOW COULD YOU COME UP WITH SUCH A BAD IDEA? YOU ARE TRYING SO HARD TO KEEP US GRINDING MORE AND MORE. BUT IT DOESNT WORK THAT WAY. PEOPLE ARE LEAVING BECAUSE OF FRUSTRATION THAT THEY CANT USE THE GEAR THEY WANT TO AND THE GRIND GETTING WORSE AND WORSE.

  • Hmmm. Mod components? Are people really complaining about mod components? You can literally farm them all day long out of your collections tab breaking down year one blues, which I did, because it’s ordinance-mod day at the gunsmith. 30 minutes out of my day and I now have 5 on my warlock. So now I can go have fun with grenades. You’ve literally made it where the only way you can have fun builds are through work-arounds found by your community. Cores are a shitty grind you invented to slow progression, plain and simple.

  • Can I get a stack of 21 cores? I didn't abuse the core glitch so I thought Bungie could give me some cores. Trust me, THESE cores would make infusion meaningful/impactful.

    • [quote]Good friggin lord. You guys are so arrogantly bullheaded about this it’s ridiculous! You had 4000 comments all saying to remove them in your last post. You continue to ignore it. It’s absurd. (And all your pet streamers who abused the hell out of the pinnacle weapon glitch to get thousands of cores effectively breaking this joke of an economy, you ain’t punishing them so you have 0 credibility anymore). Let me try to make it simple for you to understand. Ahem....... Remove “enhancement” cores from infusion. Retire los núcleos de "mejora" de la infusión. Retirer les noyaux «d'amélioration» de la perfusion. Entfernen Sie "Verbesserungskerne" aus der Infusion. Удалите «улучшающие» ядра из настоя. Remove «amplificationem 'millia metretas ex infusione. 주입에서 "강화"코어를 제거하십시오. 從輸液中移除“增強”核心。 הסר "שיפור" ליבות מן אינפוזיה. Rimuovere i nuclei di "potenziamento" dall'infusione. 注入から「強化」コアを削除します。 Fjern "forsterkning" kjerner fra infusjon. Ta bort "förstärkning" kärnor från infusion. אַראָפּנעמען "ענכאַנסמאַנט" קאָרעס פון ינפיוזשאַן. إزالة "تعزيز" النوى من التسريب.[/quote]

      Hmm, much point in this post? - Ask for feedback - Promplty ignore all of said feedback - Post on forums with the thing you were going to do anyway Seriously, stuff like this is why you lost me as a loyal and daily player. Take a look at your competitors - they're showing how to buld a game around player feedback. Also - Stop calling it a 'discussion', that implies a two way back and forth, which this isn't as you clearly aren't paying attention to your community. Trying to label it a discussion is just lame attempt to make it sound like you're paying attention.

      • One core for a weekly bounty??? ONE CORE FOR A WEEKLY BOUNTY? Please tell us this is a typo, please! Dmg....they put you in a compromising position to have to tell us these things, totally understand that. But this is bullshit. Literally and figuratively. This not just a slap in the face....it's like a pie as well. This crap is to drag out content that Bungie cannot seem to produce for it's players. So because Bungie cannot give us anything new and exciting to do, they drip feed us enhancement cores to grind for, and this gives them time to come up with more BS to shovel our way. Once again, my apologies to you for just being the messenger. But I would seriously bitch to them about them setting you up like this constantly.

      • This approach is broken, especially now with the constant levelling due to the annual pass. You refuse to acknowledge that the economy here is broken. This is a game where you collect guns but can't use what you want all the time due to the infusion costs. This game will continue to bleed players until you truly listen and stop dictating how the game is played. Just get rid of enhancement cores for infusion. I don't know why this is so hard.

        I don't get why you guys are so hellbent on keeping masterwork cores for infusion. You already have to hope you get the proper slot when you get a powerful drop, so why does it also have to cost a rare resource to infuse things up? If I'm not mistaken you guys said you wanted infusion to be a meaningful choice. Why? Why should something as basic as [i]leveling up[/i] be a meaningful choice? Masterworking a piece of gear is a much more meaningful choice and shows that you like said gear enough to dump a bunch of cores into it to make it better. You can't just go around masterworking every weapon you get (and don't need to), but you [i]have[/i] to get your light up to progress, and tying something as scarce as masterwork cores to it was a mistake from the word go. Instead of working so hard to make easier avenues for players to get masterwork cores, you should just remove them from infusion altogether, [b]nobody[/b] likes it how it is now. And yes I keep calling them masterwork cores. That's what they were when they were introduced and that's what they should have stayed as.

        • One core? Seriously? I have looked like a hobo for months because I can’t afford to infuse anything. This is just on one character. I can’t even think about doing this all over on my other two characters. I have little time to play each week, I do not want to spend the time I have doing yet another bounty. For one core. You guys are beginning to try my patience and make me not want to play. Again.

          • Multiple Daily bounties rewarding cores will probably equal out to 5-6 cores a day. Which is way more than I get now, so I dig it.

            None of you brats should ever play Warframe or Monster hunter. if enchantment cores bother you Fishing, mining, oxium, endo, or mod farming would kill you. Even that gets dwarfed by cursed charm tables in old style MH games (devs intentionally making a system were you can have horrible RNG forever) or R8 jewels in World.

          • Just remove the cores already. Do you need each and every individual player to say that before it happens? Cores are a pointless rage wall to some of us, and an annoyance to most. There's enough grind without them.

            • DMG, apparently they are not listening to any community about the cores. So that whole were listening thing is bullshit. Just remove the cores from infusion and leave them for masterworking items. Problem solved. Shouldn't be that hard at all. After all, that's the way it was at first. Not listening to the community and ignoring very LOUD feedback is a great way to spit in the face of your players and for them to tell the designers where to go. Don't playcate the base. Their leaving in droves as we speak.

                You have one of two choices (IMO): -Remove cores from the game entirely. Plain and simple. OR -Find the balance of the amount of cores we can get. In my personal opinion, I think the cores should be scarce enough to keep infusion meaningful, but not so scarce to the point where players have to exploit the game in order to get cores. There should be balance, if you decide to keep them (which I’m presuming you are, because you’re so insistent on keeping them.) That’s my two cents on the whole thing. Anyone else reading, take it or leave it.

                Not really a discussion when it's so one-sided. You just keep pushing your own ideas and decisions instead of actually talking with the community to see if they also agree, or if they have another idea. Where's the "discussion"? That's not to say that Gunsmith Bounties are a bad idea; had you done this from the beginning, it would have probably worked. The months of frustration over the Masterwork Core economy, however, has made many players sour about the whole thing, and would just prefer for Infusion to return to how it was before Forsaken. There was never any real reason to make Enhancement Cores a part of infusion, and the "meaningful/impactful progression" excuse it's just that, an [i]excuse[/i]. There's nothing "impactful" about it at all. It was just a nuisance. They were fine for Masterworks, and should have stayed that way. If you wanted to create other uses for them, you could have made them a currency for enhancing weapon and armor perks/mods, upgrading Year 1 gear to Year 2, or perk and stat rerolling on Exotic and Legendary armor. I will say this though: I do like this idea of adding Gunsmith Bounties that will give us Enhancement Cores, Mods, and Mod Components. It was also a wise decision to change the cost for purchasing these bounties from Gunsmith materials to Glimmer.

                • One core for a weekly bounty, really? Just remove them from infusion and keep them rare. Leveling up isn't a meaningful choice, MASTERWORKING is.

                    Wow! 2 cores for an entire week. And daily bounties each giving 1 core. I feel so rewarded. Tone deaf developers.

                    • I don't think I have ever seen a company act this stubborn over something that could literally turn their game around? At least we got a good laugh out of this as I assume you guys did before posting it.

                    • Re-packaging the astoundingly tone-deaf response from last time and continuing to parrot ‘We’re collecting feedback’ doesn’t feel like much of a discussion. If anything it feels like another slap in the face. Remove the cores from Infusion.

                      • Why should we keep giving feedback on the issue when you’ve made it abundantly clear over the last few responses that this is as far as you’ll concede on cores? You’re asking for feedback on an issue you don’t plan on changing your minds on. How about a little honesty for a change?
