Bungie, Start Pushing Destiny into the MMO/FPS Hybrid
As of right now I am going to make this a long post so bare with me.
Destiny 2 as of right now is hurting because of the idea of focusing more along the lines of the generic FPS genre instead of becoming the MMO/FPS many of of hardcores saw glimpses of in D1. There is no excitment in the guns, or abilities I wield. Even with this DLC coming up, if your going to increase the level cap, are you expanding upon the talent nodes for all the subclasses. Right now, having only two ways to play per subclass is the exact OPPOSITE of what we wanted. Destiny 2 is missing the chaos aspect, excitement, the for better words "unbalanced" aspect of PvE. Sure PvP is somewhat balanced but you killed the PvE scene as a result.
START SEPARATING PVP AND PVE.
Disable abilites, perks, and even some weapons if you have to keep PvP balanced. However, Make PvE insane. Let us have the sensation of going ham, with well thought out challenges. Make Prestige mode of raids only for the elites, while having the standard raid be a way for all players to experience a dumbed down version of the raid while making the Prestige version of the fights have many more mechanics, basically making it an entirely new fight. Give it full matchmaking for the normal version while adding in a LFG system in game where we can find "statics" or even clans that help us build bonds. Make the Prestige versions of these raids the only way to hit the cap and have amazing weapons that are worthy of the challenge you give us.
Develop large scale strikes, lets have 12 man strikes that have raid-like mechanics to help teach people the basics of raiding while giving people gear that is a steeping stone to the Prestige raid.
Make Heroic strikes a special challenge with their own reward drops, unique looking vehicles/sparrows, with beefed up versions of the bosses.
Make Destiny the defining MMO/FPS experience. I want to feel powerful, but also fight powerful challenges.
Edit: I also want to point out one other thing. Destiny's setting is amazing, yet I am disappointed above all else of Bungie's lack of being creative and asking for feedback on things to truly make Destiny stand out. I want Destiny to not only have 2 million players at launch, I want this community to grow to 10 million users after years.

4 RepliesI would rather see Bungie improve the RPG aspects of this game. I think this would allow more player customization. I posted a long time ago that at it's heart Destiny is first and foremost a shooter. Bungie is still struggling with the RPG and MMO aspects of Destiny. In my opinion, the RPG and MMO aspects should really only apply for PvE and special PvP events such as trials and Iron Banner. Since light or power doesn't matter in the Crucible, Bungie should just normalize the ability rates. It would be cool if they offered speed ups for grenades and supers that randomly spawn on the maps much like how power weapons used to spawn in Bungies old Halo games. There would then be mad dashes to these speed ups like there was sword, rocket launcher, or sniper rifle. It would add a new dimension to PvP. Just some thought how Bungie could improve Destiny.
