Played for the two hours, got nothing. Average 2.5-3.0 k/d. Saw some scrubs on my team get some hand cannons though. If this is how they're gonna be with "rewards" I'm already losing confidence. The "rewards" are like random participation medals. Next time I'll know to just go afk and eat snacks during events like this.
Edit: did get a skirt, but That's a pretty lame ass reward when they advertised:
“Iron Banner has limited time rewards, so show up with your ‘A’ game. Losing a match may make the difference between getting that bad ass Assault Rifle or not.”

Edited by ColonelPutty: 7/22/2014 9:33:50 AMWhy is this "Iron Banner" even a thing? Not more than a few days ago, most of you didn't even know it existed. Suddenly it's cool, and now I need it? If this is going where I think it is, I'm a bit worried. I never played an MMO in my life, primarily because of this kind of nonsense, "give me status! GIMME GIMME GIMME!," ultimately creating very toxic communities in the progress. I was hoping this game would rise above all that crassness, do it's own thing, but if bungie ends up catering to "mass hysteria," count me out.
