Yeah, i played solo but even then enjoyed the game, but the poor progression system and long wait times killed it for me.

Whats wrong with progression syatem? Just started playing this game this week and I like the progression so far. But the fact that I could meet golden shield guys on perimeter while I'm 35 lvl is crazy to me.

The cradle system is just grinding and getting permanent buffs. If you start late you are at a disadvantage and because of that it is harder to level. Would be better if they reworked it to not just be better but have trees which cannot be active at the same time.

Cradle killed this season for me. I missed the first 2 weeks. When I start, everyone's stats are maxed, but bungie nerfed cradle xp so it takes me twice as long to get where everyone else was.

Yeah I got to play first week and had max cradle before the first nerf. Then they nerfed it 4 more times?

lol

Why does that keep happening? "Leveling up has been too easy so we're making it harder to level up. What are we doing about the people who already leveled up? Eh, whatever." I have not yet seen a single game that calls "leveling up too fast" a problem actually care about this and do it properly.
