Sparrows and ships loot is inferior to weapons

They're cosmetics. Stop calling them the new loot for all the events, NOBODY would rather have like 10 new sparrows and ships over even 1 actual new weapon. Edit: This is more leaning towards the context of Guardian games and its lack of real loot, less for endgame activities that [b][u]also have separate meaningful weapon rewards.[/u] [/b]

  • This. Really 100% this. Weapons and Armor are loot. Everything else are gimmicks. It's fine to have them but nothing to chase for.

      I agree. Ships serve no purpose other than loading screens and sparrows are simply a way to move around the map. Unless they make them do something special its all just fancy trash. If they had a sparrow that had guns, or shot out pulses to kill enemies that would be neat, or maybe a ship when droppes on world would allow a passive bonus or something. Otherwise its all useless garbage.

    • I actually really like some of the exotic sparrows and ships. What does suck is that a lot of cool designs are locked behind eververse engrams. But I love the nightfall sparrows.

      [quote]They're cosmetics. Stop calling them the new loot for all the events, NOBODY would rather have like 10 new sparrows and ships over even 1 actual new weapon.[/quote] Just saying, you are actually wrong. All the ones feeding Eververse are part of the problem why there is way too much junk loot in this game and Bungie forcing that junk loot on us instead of creating loot worth chasing. Destiny used to be about chasing loot, and cosmetics were a bonus that used to have a sense of value because D1 wasn't flooded with junk loot. Back then somone was intelligent enough to actually using their brain. What this Bungie did is basically what some parents do giving their kid everything they want, and a lot of it that within 5 min of any new toy that kid it is over it because that kid has no appreciation for everything being handed out like candy. That is how Bungie's loot system feels, there is nothing to look forward to in this game at all because they took away that sense of value Destiny use to have.

      • I would care about sparrows if the scourge one wasn’t just the best sparrow. There is no reason to use any sparrow other than that one because it literally has all the perks.

        • If we could actually use our ships for gameplay things, like calling in air strikes in certain activities, or giving Sparrows weapons so we can use them against vehicles (like the time we got to use heavy Fallen Pikes against a Spider Tank in D1)...

        • I mean technically it is loot. Just not loot YOU want.

          • I agree with you and will expand on that, ships, sparrows, emblems, ghosts, shaders and emotes are all crap world drop loot to me. I like some of those items, but do not like them as world drops, I would prefer specific avenues to get those items, but not have them as rewards from world drops, dungeons, missions and so on. Others like those kinds of things, I prefer weapons and armor.

            I’d like to be able to earn sparrows and such without having to go through eververse, and yes that’s a form of loot.

              People shit their pants that there was not enough cosmetic rewards from events in Y3. Now people shit their pants that they would rather have guns than cosmetics as rewards. This community is never satisfied...

                I agree, would rather have new weapons and armor than a tennis ball ghost shell

              • Cosmetics are loot just as much as weapons and armor are.

                • This is where you are wrong i remember in d1 ships and sparrows were loot in raids and very sought after, I would love to see actual loot like this brought back to meaningful items in the game.......

                  • Your wrong I did the whisper mission solely for a Thousand Wings and I would have done the same for my Micro Mini. It all depends on the ship and the sparrow.

                    • You should sent a formal complaint to Loot Crate cause I don't think they give out any weapons in those either.

                    • The SRL armor sets from Y1 were way better looking, imo.

                    • The armor is absolute dogshit, but would be more fun to earn.
