Nightfall solo pain!
Edit3: This is an old thread from november, back when the nightfall was lvl 28.
OK, so I'm pretty sure you guys (& gals) at Bungie didn't intend to make this week's nightfall unplayable for us solo players but I can assure you it succeeds at being one thing: a rage inducer! I've tried 6 times now with my fully equipped lvl 28 Hunter w/ arc damage weapons and I'm walking away now. No more pointless deaths for me. You should really fix this. I love your game even with it's issues & have been impressed by your willingness and ability to listen to community feedback and implement changes. Here's my problem: I'm a new dad nursing a baby at home. I don't want to play PVP and prefer playing PVE solo since at any moment I might have to put the controller down and see to the needs of my little one. This week's extreme nightfall challenge is just the tip of the iceberg. I cannot tell you how many times I get kicked to orbit during missions because I have to do a diaper change. On top of that I feel your game discriminates against the solo player when most endgame content is geared towards either the PVP crowd or Raiding w/a group. I'm asking you all to please, please find a way to alleviate this. I know I'm probably not playing your game the way you intended but that's precisely my point. Myself and a lot of other solo players will be onboard for the long haul if you include us in your grand plan. Thanks for (hopefully) listening.
Edit:Thanks to some of you for the decent intelligent (non-hateful) replies.
(#2): Thanks again for all the tips, offers, and rational comments, opinions, etc. I realise I shouldn't necessarily use this week's nightfall as my prime example but my main concern about solo content stands. The nightfall is doable - I've already done it with my 29 warlock - it's just harder. That worries me as a primarily solo player who actively enjoys the game and nightfalls are really the only solo PVE endgame content so far, if you can even call them that. It's nice to see a lot of you agree with me.
I'm on PS4 and don't even have a mic for it yet.
Cheers and happy space cowboy-ing!

1 ReplyI mean look, there's no doubt this week's nightfall is TOUGH as f*ck for solo players. After the third or fourth time I got killed during the fight with Prime I also just walked away. It is ridiculously hard (and I've soloed every nightfall for the past month). That said, I really don't agree that Bungie needs to "fix" anything. It's not broken; it's just not what you prefer. I get that you prefer solo play. I do as well (hence why I tend to solo all the nightfalls). But it's also good to push yourself and try things you wouldn't normally do. I had to really break out of my comfort zone for the Raid and take a chance on this forum and finding people to play with. And it's worked out beautifully. I've met some awesome people; met some assholes too, but hey that's life. I guess what I'm saying is, give the co-op thing a chance. I understand that your life demands a lot right now, and solo play may be easier to work in. But I really value Destiny's co-op stuff and how it pushed me to reach out and make new friends through the game. I never thought I'd be able to do it. But I did. And I hope they keep that element of the game the same, because coming this far I don't want to go back to how it used to be for me.
