    Re: Destiny

    I figure it's the percent of people that have earned the trophy, it sits at 19.7%. Telling IMO is the 24.1% have earned the all legendary equipped trophy, anybody that hasn't played enough to equip all legendaries isn't exactly their prime audience. That means that only 18.4% of people who play the game serious enough to do this new mode to begin with haven't done a raid.


    On a completely different note, if you have a 4th Horseman, get it out. Thing is a monster now, fire rate is so high it's like the thing fires all 5 barrels at once. It's like a shotgun that fires five shots like a fusion rifle shoots one.

      Re: Destiny

      But then there are plenty of people who do a raid once or twice, and then just go back to weekly and nightfall strikes.

      Looking at the Destiny forums (especially posts with polls), it seems the majority of players are okay with no raid.

        I just watched a video of the post buff Horseman. Good lord man. I remember being pumped when I first got it. That enthusiasm lasted all of five seconds before it was promptly vaulted. I'll definitely be leveling it up now. Shotguns are so much fun after the prior patch with the 2x damage buff.

          One thing that will never fail, the official forums aren't where you need to go to get a real sense of the player base.

          It really is fun, a no charge fusion rifle with **** for range but massive impact. Really want to take my titan, bubble up, take out Arn Anderson, and **** up Omnigul in seconds.

            Re: Destiny

            And reddit is? The people that go to the Destiny reddit, much like the people that go here, are always going to typically be the more informed, hardcore players. Don't get me wrong, if I want actual information, I'm not going to the destiny forums, but as far as getting a broader sampling of the players of this game, I'd say it's probably more accurate due to the fact that those forums are instantly accessible from the Destiny app

              Re: Destiny

              More accurate because they support your perception?



              When I looked I couldn't find a poll with more than 300 votes.



              Bungie forums easier to use because of an app? An app is easier than the web?



              Anyway, we could go back and forth since there's no way to prove anything wither way, so we are just going to have to agree to disagree.

                You can infer alot of different things based on the statistics of trophies. But inferring that people arent interested in the raid because 20% of PS4 users have gotten the trophy makes no sense. A better stat that Im sure Bungie has access to is, how many of current active players have played and consistently play the raid? How many users have stopped playing altogether after reaching 32? A ps4 trophy list is nothing to draw conclusions from. 5% of players have beaten Binding of Issac with the title character Issac. Does that mean he should be cut from the game? Nonsense. (not directed at you Burns btw).

                Both the Bungie and Reddit sites have biases going into their polls so I wouldnt consider either all that great to draw info from.

                I personally only raid. I rarely do a nightfall for bonus XP to upgrade guns I get form the raid.

                  I think that introducing a 3 man raid makes the barrier to entry easier. I like raiding but I don't have the resources or the friends that can do it with me. I have not been able to get a lot of the weapons or lure either because I can't run it when I want to.

                  It will be MUCH easier with a 3 person team to do it. Strikes are the most played thing on destiny and I think Bungie wants to capitalize on that.

                  I do think that it is a slight form of misrepresentation as well. DLC was bought under the pretense of 2 raids.

                  I will reserve judgement and I hope that the arena will be just as fun as the raid.

                  Lastly I would rather wait to have a much better raid than to just arbitrarily put something out to poor reviews. Waiting will mean that more resources and time has been put into making it better.

                      They are still releasing another raid "later this year". Hopefully that means before Comet.

                        I can't wait for the upcoming content... new gear, trials of osiris, and whatever else is coming.

                        The raid will come eventually. I don't even have enough radiant shards right now :o

                          It not being part of the HoW purchase is the disappointment.
