BNG: Why did you remove Materials for Marks?
When I 1st read the patch notes I was excited to see the addition of Marks for Upgrade Materials. Finally I would have something else to spend my excess Vanguard marks on. I always like when games offer you options. If you needed extra marks, you could exchange some materials, now if you need extra materials you could trade in some marks.
Of course, that excitement was quickly dashed when I discovered that you REPLACED the (Materials for Marks) with the (Marks for Materials).
Why? Do you guys have some personal grudge against choices and options? Why does everything have to be [b]one way OR the other[/b]. Why won't you provide multiple options instead of limiting us to just one? Why can't you let your players decide what they prefer to do instead of forcing everything to be all or nothing?
Instead of letting people choose if they want to play PvP or PvE, you seem to be trying to push people into both. * Why not just let people enjoy the parts of Destiny they love without punishing them for it? *
By replacing the material exchange, people have no choice but to run the crucible if they want to purchase anything from the faction vendors. Where before, if you didn't want to run the crucible, you could farm some materials, trade them in for marks, than spend them on the faction vendors.
Well, not anymore...
I just don't understand.
* Why couldn't you just remove the (reputation/glimmer) gains and leave the option to trade materials for marks? At an exchange rate of 5 to 1, would being able to swap one type of Mark for another really have been so bad? *
* You provided so many great new ways to aquire extra materials, than took away the only other feature they could be used for. *

6 RepliesThis latest update alienates your entire player vs. Enemy section of your player base. I have already found a much weaker experience playing the game. Now I find myself COMPLETELY ignoring all of the material outside on the maps. Canisters of spinmetal and chunks of iron out in the wild on their respective maps are completely pointless. With every chest on a map containing material there is no point at all harvesting it in the wild. Even now I find myself throwing away 90% of what I get from chests because having more than 40 or 50 helium canisters is pointless and we now cant sell them. Also I hate the PvP in destiny. The radar sucks and there is no balance between those with over powered gear from doing VOG 100 times, those who haven't had the chance to find 6 people to do it at one time. So the only way I can get crucible marks is by selling materials. It's a way to empty out some inventory and get both marks as well as experience when I need to upgrade a weapon and I have ran out of bounties for the day. Selling material gave me a reason to play this game more than an hour a week. Because being a PvE player vs a PvP player, means that I can max out my vanguard marks for the week in about an hour. Then I have no other reason to be on here anymore since you basically took all the "Farmers" out there that play your game and said, "F YOU! You are going to play PvP or you can kiss our butts". Because it has been painfully obvious since I first got Destiny, that Bungie wants us to play PvP. That is all they care about it seems. And this update and been a kick in the balls for every single farmer out there. If this isn't fixed by the next update I am selling this game and getting COD.
