I'll be addressing this in the Weekly Update.
Preview: Power Matters, but so does skill.

No, it shouldn't. Sure, it should be more stat based than it is now, but if it were just they are statistic-wise, anyone under level 15 would be pointless playing Iron Banner. Think about it.
-
That's why the iron banner was made. To give us higher ranks and more skillful players a place to have real competition. It's one playlist out of the other 4. I don't think it would've killed anyone to do this right.
-
That's how it should be lol
-
Please elaborate, as I'm not sure what side your 'how it should be' is on.
-
Okay skill matters. I think the point they are making is that a level 4 is killing level 20+ players with the same amount of shots as a level 26 player. Mind that he is also using the 1st weapon in the game. This simply should not occur. If it took like 3 whole clips to kill somebody but he still managed to kill everybody then that goes to show he is just better than them. Too bad that isn't the case lol
-
but i cant kill a ?? monster so..
-
Lol, it's only up for a week! Good news, Tuesday: Good news! It's fixed. Bad news, it's down cause the week is up! Too funny!

Dear Deej, I hope you arent the only one listening to the community. I could go on about the games inner fails, but I'm not. I'm mad I payed 60$ for a days worth of content and story. You guys at Bungie may not realize it, but the window for improvement is closing. If you want to keep customers through the holiday season, its going to take a lot. There are titles coming out soon that have the potential to either shelve Destiny, or get rid of it all together. A good place to start would be releasing the hostage we would call "the rest of the game". Or atleast give us some of it.... How can you justify selling this game for 60$ to Xbox360 users when we have the Noahs Ark of problems. That and we run off old Halo: Reach servers. Basically what I'm saying is this game is like a Supermodel. Its beautiful, fun to play, and has a solid figure. But it lacks content and depth.
-
Agreed. I keep playing, parts of it I love, but if they keep dishing out subpar stuff, that the old Bungie would have been ashamed of, then they are going to be in for a rude awakening.
-
@DeeJ I am a huge believer in skill, so why don't you release the math of how the Iron Banner works. Just tell us how it works and we can outfit ourselves accordingly. IN MOST SPORTS AND GAMES PLAYERS ARE GIVEN THE RULES UPFRONT. (In Destiny the devs get mad when the players figure out the rules and use them.)

Edited by Envy11: 10/9/2014 3:27:28 PMYes, skill should be important, thats why there is the crucible isn't it? My impression was that he crucible should be a balanced gamemode where skills, abilities, weapons and armor should be normalized so that SKILL is the defning factor. I thought Iron Banner was supposed to strip all normalization of gear so that GEAR has a larger impact. Yes skill will still matter, but a level 4-5 players shouldn't be anywhere near the level 20+'s in terms of damage or armor. At this point none of these 'weekly' events seem to have any real meat to them, they all seem to be the same foundation with a thin layer of chipped paint.

Edited by JetEyeKnight: 10/9/2014 3:06:15 PMI feel like who ever spent the time grinding to get to a decent level to prepare for iron banner basically got screwed. I have defended a lot of thing, but I can't defend this.
-
Sounds about right
-
Edited by AfroSpectre7: 10/9/2014 3:06:10 PMIts all good dude. Possible if I could get my money back though? I feel as though you guys tricked me into buying this game. It just isn't what it was proclaimed to be. All these events are just the same shit with a different name.
-
Lol. Except videos have shown power doesn't change anything at all... It's just another "playlist" in crucible. Just like "Combined Arms" was advertised like Heavies on Valhalla, instead it was a rotation of the normal Blood Gulch/Ragnarok maps.
-
Fart.
-
-
Don't shoot the messenger. Must suck to be Deej right now lol.
-
Why? You know he gets paid well and he only works 1 day a week if even
-
why? DeeJ gets paid good money. I'm sure its pretty great to be deej right now.
-
He's a fat middle aged dude. I wouldn't trade with him. No offence if u see this DeeJ, but is true lol

Edited by Sovereign117345: 10/9/2014 2:55:20 PM-blam!- the low levels. There, I said it. People keep trying to defend this horse crap with shit like "oh but then it wouldn't be fair to the lvl 5s and they wouldn't be able to play the IB". Is Bungie run by a bunch of liberals or something? What's next? Low levels getting glimmer welfare checks? Legendary gear food stamps? This event, this one freaking event, was supposed to be the place where us high level guys could smack our heads together using all the badass gear we spent so long finding and upgrading. In all honesty they should have had a lvl requirement for this shit. If you aren't 25 or above go -blam!- around in regular crucible. Deal with it.

I would actually expected IB to be a min lvl 20, I have grinded like a mofo on my hawkmoon since I got it so that I would be able to use it in the IB, lvl'ed up my sniper to max, grim citizen to max, zombie apocalypze and the shotgun from the raid is one less upgrade from max....and for what ??? Atm, it doesn't seem to be any difference from being lower lvl against higer lvl....I thought as you did that this was where we would throw every normalisation out the window and just see who had the pbest gear, highest armour and higher lvl'ed guns....like if I went against someone with a maxed out gun with 300 dmg and I was using a lvl 10 gun...I should get wrecked....I should be GB'ed with no lube, and they would not even have the curtesy to say thnx after....just for kicks I was running with a purple sniper rifle lvl 10 since I was doing the void dmg bounty on thorn, and it did almost as good dmg as my maxed out sniper,... Only difference is that my maxed out sniper has more inpact so bodyshots takes more healt....in many way it feels like a normal crucible just with really tiny tiny differences betwen a lvl 4 and a lvl 29.....I don't like that..... This was where gear was supposed to matter, and those who go in with waaaay to low lvl char should be prepared to be broken over a chair while the enemy team lines up behind him...I have one goal in the IB, and that is that i want my spacebus back, after that I don't see much point in doing IB over normal crucible, since all in all it's no difference between low lvl's (10 and below) and high lvl's (20 and above)
