bungie didnt mention this, but i wonder if along with the engram change (purples giving purples or better) if they will also change the liklihood of purple dropping... i'm not sure the intent of bungie's change was to make purples much more available, which is what will happen after this update, but rather to alleviate frustration from getting a worse item after decryption then expected. if this is indeed their goal, then they may play with lowering the probability of a purple (or blue) engram dropping.
You won't see any more purple items than you do now.
They are just changing how they are "identified."
They admitted they shouldn't have looked the color purple when the vast likelihood was that they were going to turn blue.
