Bungie Forced to Apologize for Destiny 2 Drama for the Second Week in a Row

Bungie is getting really good at apologizing to its fanbase. For the second week in a row, the Destiny 2 developers have addressed an issue centered around a lack of transparency with the game’s players.

In a blog post, Bungie responded to the discovery of a cooldown system that locked players out of rewards during the Faction Rally event that returned this week. The cooldown in question seems to keep players from acquiring rewards when they are earned too frequently. The developers admitted the process was “too disruptive,” acknowledging the fact that the cooldown system was hidden from players in the process:

There was an issue in previous Faction Rallies where players were earning hundreds of Faction Tokens per hour without firing a single shot. In the recent Dec. 12 update, Faction Token rewards were added to an existing system that was locking players out from Lost Sector Rewards. We have heard player feedback that this solution is too disruptive.
