Rift and SRL Would Have Been Marvelous For An Olympic Atmosphere

Rift feels more like a game than any other Crucible type, and SRL is literally just freeroam bobsled races with engines (which I'd watch in the actual Olympics anyway). Nah, we just got reflavored bounties and some new music (that slaps, to be fair). They could just slap on the old race tracks, toss in that sweet Rift map from Earth, and call it good. I understand that they're all working from home, and I'm glad they're being safe, but events like these aren't conjured within a couple months time!

  • I totally agree with you, guardian. There were several things they could have done to make the guardian games more... olympic and game-ish.. Just to add to your srl and rift ideas: **Archery event- We already have the bows. Bungie could have made an event with moving targets that pop up and down (old schoolers think Duck Hunt) and whoever hit the most targets in a certain time wins. **Soccer/Futbol- The field is already in game, with goals that light up when scoring with the ball even. Another missed opportunity. **Dodgeball- Bungie already has the snowball throw mechanic in game. Tweak that by having one team run through an obstacle course, like maybe the one with the flames in the menagerie, and the other team throw balls on the sidelines. Or use a reskin of the soccer/futbol field or drifters gambit spawn lobby for a simpler setting etc.. **Sparrow freestyle- We have sparrows that can do all kinds of flips, and our guardians can already use freestyle emotes on them; why not see who can pull off the coolest techniques on a small course with different ramps etc... So yes, there were some missed opportunities with guardian games, and maybe they can take a look at some of these examples and build upon them for the next one, if they do bring it back w/ D3. It wouldve been a helluva alot better than the great bounty grind that we did get, imo.
