If you have 300 people entering a race, and two of them are Olympic medalists, well you may not be able to cater to those outliers when you're designing a fulfilling track.


Bungie wanted VoG hard mode to be only for Olympians so to speak. I recall in a pre-release video Bungie said that VoG hard mode was going to be so tough, they were going to track individual clears since that would be a huge accomplishment in and of itself.

They accomplished it, too. I've never even attempted it.

I don't think the stats are backing that up. Last time I checked, about 5% of the 11 million player base has competed the raid on hard. That's 550K people. Even if each of them only completed it ONCE, that's still way to many completions to warrant that kind of statement.

I'm not saying that's how it SHOULD be, but it seems really obvious Bungie is designing the next hard mode to be really really hard.
