On Scoring (Destiny)

Remember the Maw run from Halo? You had a timer you had to beat. 6 or 5 minutes depending on the difficulty. You could functionally accomplish the same thing, with a cascading explosion that progresses down the Maw run, reaching the end in 5 or 6 minutes. See the difference? Wouldn't it be more fun to outrun an explosion than to race a silly timer?

Yeah, I see the difference. Your way forces me into a specific driving speed (I have to be faster, at all times, than the cascading explosion). Bungie's way let me do certain things faster than average, which allowed me to take side trips, and talk to grunts about food nipples.

I like their way better.
