Destiny's HALLOWEEN 'event' - Are you KIDDING ME?

So let me get this right. Destiny does Halloween... - A pumpkin head consumable (bugged) - A respawn asthetic consumable (random drop from hive?) - A few new speeders (same model, new flaming skins and a barrel roll?) [b]EDIT : [/b]Apparently, not even the Speeders are part of said event (Thanks to Skryblz for the links) : http://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/76189795/0 http://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/76192083/0/0 http://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/76196941/0/0 [b]Is THAT it?[/b] Are you people freaking KIDDING me? Okay, okay... let's just take a look around at what other big online social games are doing for this event, shall we? Start with the big daddy... [b]World of Warcraft[/b] http://www.wowhead.com/guide=31/hallows-end-october-18-november-1 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IKH4glv3NOA Yeah, yeah I hear it. But that's a subscription based game! It's not fair to compare!!! Fine, let's go check out what [b]Guild Wars 2[/b] is up to then. Same as Destiny - Once off purchase + occasional paid DLC... http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Blood_and_Madness https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8cfgPlgeF30 Still no bites eh? Okay, okay... let's get down to the bottom then on the sliding scale. A FREE to play MMO in [b]Neverwinter![/b] http://neverwinter.gamepedia.com/Masquerade_of_Liars https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0x4uolPPwDA Are you embarrassed yet Bungie? Because you god damned well should be. This is again a clear, shining example of what is WRONG with your game. THERE IS NO CONTENT! Your efforts here are so lazy, you shouldn't have even bothered. Yeah, to those who are starving out there for content, your cracker was considered a welcome addition. But to gamers who are used to better, this is just flat out a pathetic disappointment. You promoted the crap out of your game as this living, breathing ever evolving world with a 'reason to login' every day and continual flow of content that you 'never get bored' This is just ridiculous. Yeah I get that you're not this big MMO experience... you're a 'shared world shooter' and all that. But you have taken so many design elements from the MMO genre that people seriously cannot tell the difference. A game experience is a game experience and you can say 'we're not X' all you like, if you play down the line like a MMO that's what people are going to compare you to and compared directly to even the most modest shared world social gaming experiences out there, this is yet again just another clear example of how poor your implementation is. Given that and your own claims on what level of content we [i]should[/i] expect I'm embarrassed for your team that you still just cannot get the basics right. Oh, I have those expectations wrong? Yeah, some might claim that. People have short memories (especially fanboys who think Bungie can do no wrong) but the weight of your legacy only carries you so far to an objective mind. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y1OjUWw43co 'To have enough variety that you'll never get bored' - Christopher Barrett (Art director) Yeah, your developers. Your claim. Even free to play games out there on the market are outright EMBARRASSING you on content design and delivery at the moment and even though you are getting masses of 'feedback' here, you keep making the same mistakes, over and over again. Well yeah... I'm 'over' it as well. Your effort for Halloween [b]SUCKS.[/b] There's 'feedback' for your team. Happy Halloween.

  • Usually I whole heartedly agree with whoever complains about this game's lack of content but here I would have to disagree with you. For one you're comparing a game that's been out for 2 months to games that have been out for years. Next your comparing this game which ISN'T an mmo per say, to incredibly big budget MMOs that have been around for years. Please stop comparing Destiny to mmos, especially well established ones, because for one Destiny is on a console! All your listed MMOs are on computers! Have you even considered to take into account the platform limitations? On top of that these MMOs you've listed have had months to years to plan for seasonal content, Bungie has had less than a month. In fact I wouldn't doubt that these big time MMOS even have the staff to have an entire team to dedicate purely to seasonal content. Seriously I mean did you even take into account any of the factors that would affect this event. We can complain about the outcome of Destiny because it's safe to assume that Bungie had an incredibly large time frame in which to make the game, but I'm not going to shoot them down for something they probably had a months time to prepare for. If you're going to make some comparisons at least compare it to games on the same platform. Let's do this. - Call of Duty: Double XP all through Halloween (wooooooowwwwwww) - The Michael Meyers dlc was released in January of this year so I'm not counting that - Battlefield 4: Some easter eggs within the multiplayer content Do I even need to continue? With comparisons to actual games that are on the same stage as Destiny, it feels to me like this content is right on par with other console games. Seriously if you want to complain because a console game doesn't live up to a big time MMO then with all due respect, please just quit Destiny, throw your console away, and go play WoW.
