Like seriously how many matches of heavy metal do you have to play for a prime drop

I’ve been playing straight for over 2.5 hours, and no prime drop, I stopped counting at 23 matches…this is a disgrace. the power grind since edge of fate has been abysmal, you have soft sunset a majority of the content, exotics, and legacy gear. I just don’t get why you would destroy your game like this I have supported bungie since the early halo days, by buying all expansions, spending thousand’s of dollars. YOU HAVE LOST YOUR WAY, AND I CAN NO LONGER JUSTIFY SENDING ANY MORE OF MY HARD EARNED MONEY YOUR WAY!!!!!!

  • First time playing heavy metal feels like an abattle zone from the 1980s… but I did learn if I stand still, and just jiggle my joystick… pardon the language… I can die very quickly… the more I die the quicker my team loses… and we still get loot at the end… which is a lot easier than trying to grind out an “A” grade solo… so there it is… just die quicker… and how do you shoot that special shot anyways I can get it to target, but I can’t figure out what button order to push… oh well Caveat, I absolutely stink at heavy metal so my team loses it anyways … Losing in four minutes is a lot quicker than grinding out any other portal activity lol What’s weird is when I make myself a stationary target sometimes it opens up the enemy to my teammates to be hit from behind… so it seems like I’m winning one out of every three games… so if you see me coming, and then I stop… you might want to turn around cause my teammates are coming up behind you lol… The trick though is to keep moving your tank towards the enemy and then once they stop and wiggle your joystick back-and-forth that way, the game thinks you’re still playing … Also keep shooting your gun because the game will kick you if you’re not moving at least says you’re inactive but if you just go in circles and shoot your gun that seems to work…

  • Gave up after couple matches, it’s not enjoyable or rewarding, pretty much like the rest of the game
