Bungie tragically removes incredible chest exploit two months after launch

Bungie has eliminated the Terminal Overload chest farm from Future 2: Lightfall, making the method of rapidly buying fame and loot far tougher for the common participant. Whether or not an sincere trick or exhaustive exploit, the group is reeling nonetheless.

For the suckers who did not know, following the completion of a Terminal Overload occasion you may repeatedly loot one of many two reward chests by rapidly leaving the zone and driving again. Every time you probably did so, the chest could be replenished with recent gear so that you can seize.

The group on-line has responded as it’s possible you’ll anticipate: a cocktail of unhappiness, frustration, and finally acceptance on the farm’s departure. There are additionally those that are counting themselves fortunate, having farmed out the 50 required chests to unlock a uncommon emblem that has all of a sudden change into much more of a feat to gather in good time.

Not that this needs to be a lot of a surpise although! The best way it has been for shut to 2 months was clearly not supposed. It’s curious why it took this lengthy to repair although, as those that actually needed to abuse this chest farm exploit have absolutely gone in and gotten all they needed from it by now.

One fascinating consequence of the repair is the way it will have an effect on the recognition of the Terminal Overload occasion going foward! Many gamers would always re-queue again and again for an opportunity of piggybacking the ultimate stage of Terminal Overload, in order that they may rapidly seize the chest 3-4 occasions inside a matter of minutes.

With the exploit gone, will these gamers cease doing it altogether, or lastly buckle in and assist out for longer with lesser reward? My cash is on the previous.
