There is no way this post is ill-advised. It's class act, man. I can't apologize for anyone, but know that not everyone out here is all fire and brimstone about this game. I happen to love it. In fact, Imma go play right now. Peace!

I can't understand how Destiny is supposed to last ten years, I've enjoyed playing it but now I'm really struggling to find anything to do weekly's are done on Tuesday, VOG as early as possible, Daily missions and daily public event, run through bounties can be done in around an hour or so (weekends when players have more free time need's more bounties or something) PVP is incredibly limited I have little FPS background but when playing games like battlefield I could completely change my gaming experience by using different vehicles different classes gamemodes. Destiny has TDM and Control which with the objectives being so poorly rewarded is just TDM with a few places to camp near... Not complaining I downloaded digitally £80 with two DLC's (to come) without paying any attention to the hype or trying the beta. I've put in enough hours and had fun so no hard feelings when I say that it's actually very unlikely I'll download the DLC's as after I do VOG with my mates this weekend (I've already said I would) I'm just going to delete destiny and move on... sorry for the rambling wall but at least I haven't made a thread to say goodbye XD Good luck everyone :D

One request from the community "raid match making" I feel like is lazy, unsocial, and just unnecessary. If you want to raid, just go on the bungie forums and post on one of the many "raid finding" forums, or just message people in the tower. I've made many friends via raids with random strangers and it really has been a great experience. I used to be a bit uncomfortable with voice chatting with random strangers, but I feel much better about it now. I honestly see no need for raid match making and those who want it are just lazy, not to mention being matched with 5 random strangers who won't voice chat will just result in a very frustrating raid experience.

It is good to hear that Bungie is reading feedback, but what are they doing to follow up with that? Is there an action plan in place for what is prioritized and in what order? What issues are the engineers working on, what kind of content are the developers churning out soon? How well is the QA team with finding and crushing bugs? Can we get a list of fixes/tweaks and possible additions that is in the pipe 6 months down the road, a year down the road? There was talk about strikes getting balanced, but I have not heard or seen anything else on this matter. It would seem Bungie is more focused on making the game even more Random with how they are tweaking the raids and the boss choosing who to teleport. Do you have an ETA on the strike balance fix? Can we get some "real talk" instead of cryptic stories from time to time on the weekly updates? Do you talk to Bungie in the same cryptic manner?

"Die a hero? Or live long enough"...oh you know the rest

Deej, I think you're missing the point of what the community is saying. Yes, seeing other Guardians in the community (Destiny Tracker, et al) embracing the game is nice to see and all of us can appreciate that...at the appropriate time. This is not that time yet. Right now there needs to be focus shown by yourself and your company on the concerns aired by the customer base. Most of the concerns aired on these boards are valid ones, because your company's product is failing to live up to the promises the company made when the game was being developed (Full customization, creating your own story, etc). Not only that, but the most basic function of the game itself (allowing the customer to actually log in and play the game they paid for) is failing at an alarming rate. To paraphrase the film [i]Broken Arrow[/i], "I don't know what's more disturbing; the fact that your game has this many connection errors or that there are so many your company has come up with a 'fun' name for each of them". It's alarming how badly this game is functioning and more so how much you and your company appear to be ignoring the problems. You like to post 'fluff' pieces to show how much fun the community can have with your intellectual properties. I get that. It's a great piece of marketing to showcase the fans in this manner, but until you start addressing the real issues the game is suffering from in a professional, non-condescending manner, then all you are doing is throwing these showcased fans under the bus, which they certainly don't deserve. Perhaps this will help you understand the position you've put us in: After buying into the hype surrounding a new car, you purchase it. The price you pay is very fair, considering all of the options that the sales team tell you the car has. You drive the car home and it runs like a champ, causing you to be the envy of many folks who see your shiny new, tricked out car. A few weeks go by and you start to notice little things missing - things the dealership promised you would be there. The radio only plays half of the stations, and even those feel somehow shorted. The seats aren't the color you wanted and you have no way of changing them without it somehow changing the color of the whole car. A few weeks later, the car itself isn't starting or when it does start there's such a bad hiccup in the engine somewhere that it renders the vehicle nearly un-drivable. You try to contact the dealership and voice your concerns, but they flat out ignore you, focusing on trying to make more sales in their showroom. You bought a lemon and you feel ripped off. That's how we're feeling, DeeJ. We're not asking for magic fixes that happen instantly - we're not irrational - we just expect you to keep us in the loop on what Bungie/Activision is doing to make good on the promises made during the promotional campaign before launch and to fix the problems that are plaguing what would be an amazing gaming experience. I'm not going to give you suggestions on what to add - there are plenty of other people that have offered up some really great ideas; ideas you and the company should give some serious consideration... ...after you fix the connection problems that prevent us from playing the game at all... or at the very least, address them in a professional manner,[b] [u]showing[/u][/b] us ([i]and not just telling us[/i]) that[b] you do listen[/b] and that[b] you do care[/b]. Is that too much to ask?
