Lol, these updates are always plagued by the a seemingly endless blight of (mostly) comments irrelevant to the topic at hand. Same story with all my most played games: Destiny, Battlefield 4, Dragon age, inqusition. I can't find relaxation and enjoyment from fellowship and convo with other players via online message boards without seeing just annoying complaining and demands from other disgruntled players. Who, by the way...will drive themselves insane for weeks trying to play a game that they aren't enjoying. pvp disconnects 30 secnds after starting every time, no matter what? and theyve been trying to connect over and over for weeks, alll this customer service waiting on hold, adjusting settings....and i feel for them, i do. but, hang the hat up. im not wealthy whatsoever. So, be smart. if the top 3 most likely fixes fail, return it within 7 days. past that, JUST trade it in. with Battlefield 4, every mssg was "FIX IT FIX IT. game is brokennnn." gawd, cant i just discuss recoil technicals without seeing my fav past time be denounced every 3 seconds? MY GAME wasnt broken. People complaining about destiny having connection issues? Mine doesnt. Never has. (only rare exceptions). Neither has Battlefield 4. actually, 98.6% of the time, its a problem on the player's end. I dont want to read THESE BIG ANNOYING "IM BREAKING UP WITH YOU, DESTINY!" messages!!!!!! NOBODY CARES IF IF YOU ARE UPSET. GO TO TECH SUPPORT. THOSE PEOPLE CARE. But as far as DISCUSSING IT...not interested, It amazes me!!!! if you are unhappy, just vanish. I'm sorry you had a bad experience with this...i remember how i used to feel when it happened to me when i was alot younger. But, if it makes you so angry, you need to take a nice long break away from videogames for awhile, trust me. Bungie cares, but they aren't really calling the shots. Or reading these comments. AT ALL. Bungie is working on the next project. Those who aren't, wtf r they gonna do? dlc #2 for free? comon! DLC is nothng new. I rarely buy them out of principle. I cannot believe you people are not over the hype yet. I know it hurts to find out, but these companies exist to make money. Fools. MONEY. Fortunatley, These companies compete for OUR support, sales. So, the lowest prices, best products get all the girls. When your expectations are soooo skyhigh, NOTHING would have satisfied you. We thought, "oh, bungie, makers of mona lisa of gaming....published by massive AAA publisher." ...Then, all the hype/ads. it was PERFECT storm. and look...broke RECORDS for most sales. basically, REVENUE. hhaha, people make these big announcements how they onkly want "money"...uhmmmm durrrr no shyt! obv dude. same with hosptitals, insurance, so many. They arent artists who create games. Listen, There are so many kids who want to be "game makers" without realizing that theyll be quitting before they learn binary, or their first line of code. we know so little about how it TRULY works, some people sound soooo ignorant. Have you not noticed the same tone of appeasement? How they are politely saying "SHUTTTT UPPP, we can only do what our bosses demand of us, and our boss is NOT YOU." They must be so tired of the slanderous ignorant diction from children. *** Bungie made Halo with a core group of unknown, unproven develpers. Nobody bothered them, they just made something from love. THEY GOT LUCKY and stumbled upon a battle engine that was amazing and fun. (like halflife engine). its used and re-used...even in destiny. But, what else are they capable of? It's like, if you denied them that engine, and start from scratch, itd be another avg game. Hey, most devs NEVER even find that chemistry. we should have been more skeptical, it was a new thing. new dicttaorship publisher. You see, kids. it is just like in music. Everyone know Greenday? alright, well...greenday made their best music (which is the case with 99% of any music group) BEFORE they are signed to a MAJOR label. They were signed from very early on, but by local and small publishers. Why need a publisher like bungie needs activision? ...because at the end of the day, if your job is making art, you need funds to promote, produce, etc. that artwork to maximize its success. did early greenday as teenagers, all stoned and playing punkrock hav the money themselves to grow? even to produce cds...the most basic investment, requires a "deal with the devil." Totally uninfluenced art in its purest is great (THAT is why the first few albums of bands are always better, they arent yet mainstream.) But, if you become a "sellout." then, the soul of the product is lost in the sake of money. Truth? These big production companies: EA, Activision, etc, etc...THEY are only focused on money. They didnt make the game, they dont care what it is, as long as it has the most earning potential. obvious to us older players, of course. But, the part that alot of you arent grasping is... Onceyou sign with one of the big-name companies, you also sign with a big-name cash check. The downide is (and he reason why bands turn to gabage once they sign with a big label) is that YOU as a developer, no longer have any say on how your own art is made. really. They know what you can do, they paid you all that cash. so they own you....They have a list and formula of what their reserchers have concluded to be the best ways to maximize profit, and it generally means widening target audience, to maximize potential buyers. So, open world is in? gota be open world. Dont like chopping up the game to be sold later as DLC? tough! itll make us more money. Bungie has more resources, but no creative freedom. THAT is the key. freedom but no resources? or resources but no artistic freedom? Guys, think. If you have already BOUGHT THE GAME. Why would activision authorize manpower (which costs money to them) to make you feel better about a game you already bought? Theyve moved on, moneys been made, theyre looking onto the next. wanan feel better? learn. nextime, keep it in your pants and skip the midnight release. wait a damn day and see if the game is good, i save myseklf all the time by doing that. Oh, and dont listetn to machinima....those guys are total morons. sorry, they are. nothign worse than an elitist "gamer." who thinks hes the final authority on a whole subject.
