Thoughts on Destiny Controversy from an Employee in the Industry -DONE-

I have deleted the original post contents. My goal was to inspire those who might be taking Destiny's faults to extreme levels to think a little bit more about the reasons why they may feel deceived. Only to receive too much trolling, disbelief and questioning my credibility into oblivion. I am enjoying the game thoroughly, and hope Bungie resolves many large quarrels with the game. Better itemization would be nice Better communication Better matchmaking Variety in missions These are my top complaints. It was interesting to say the least, to those that responded positively, and constructively, I thank you. Someone commented earlier who said it best what I was trying to convey: "While perhaps they have not phrased it sufficiently, we believe that the author is mainly objecting to the rampant hyperbole and vilification that permeates so much of the objection to the game. Destiny may not meet one's expectations and we firmly believe that everyone should be free to assess the games merits personally, but the constant bombardment of tirades marking Destiny as 'the worst game ever' or asserting that no one should like this game are both misleading and presumptuous. All these rabid screeds do is act as noise, drowning out the valid reasoned complaints."

    Ok we discussed a lot of stuff about this game in this forum. Sometimes many poeple become very emotional. But didn't this show us, how much heartbleed and expectation were on this game? But you ask for some constructive feedback ____________________________________________________________________________ [b][u]Multiplayer[/u][/b] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ We all saw us against way better and way worse enemies. [b]Gear[/b] ................................................................................................................................ In my opinion a second set of gear, special for the crucible and just for there, would be nice. This equip can not be upgraded, it is already at the best level. Everyone had the same Autorifle / Handcannon etc and you can just change rounds and optical attachement. [b]Levelsystem / Matchmaking[/b] ................................................................................................................................ Especially in Curcible should be an stand alone experience progress work. -> Poeple with 29 who just go through PVE get matched with 26-30 players who just play PVP. Hardly fair in any way. Maybe an Trueskillsystem like Halo 3 had would be nice. [b]Costum Lobbies[/b] ................................................................................................................................ Many players want costum lobbies to play private matches with there friends. We don't ask for a forge or something. Just private matches with custom rules like kills to win or something like that. [b]Stable Connections / Netcode[/b] ................................................................................................................................ It is painful to see, you can't kill an enemy because he lags or the server don't receive your shots fast enough. Sometimes Killscores apply to the screen minutes after you killed that guy. You get killed while you already was around a corner. In an next gen Game, this shouldn't happen and especially not a experienced team like bungie who brought us games like Reach. [b][u]Singleplayer / Coop[/u][/b] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Become really Legend! [b]Questdesign[/b] ................................................................................................................................ Ok Shooter hadn't always the most innovative styles of Questdesign, but the whole Campaign is even in this genre not even close to his ancients or the normal concurrents. There aren't any Genrestandarts like a Sniper / stealth mission, vehiclemissions. Not even a turret sequenz is in it. It would be so nice if you had to infiltrate a Cabalfortress to steal some secret plans or something. Or to hijack a carrier to rescue some friends (Truth and Reconsciliation style) It is bitter reality that the quests in 90% of the Missions (Strikes including) are just Run to place A Set Up Dinkelbot. Defend against 3 Waves run to Place B Kill the Boss Wait for the timer to reach 0 [b]Missionenvironment[/b] ................................................................................................................................ Every Mission, even the strikes, play 90% of the time in the normal patrolenvironment. This means, we explore the the patrollocations through the story. So all exploration in the world finds place in the Campaign. I ound really few places i don't saw in the campaign as i walked though the open areas. Would the Missions had some special areas, you just can explore while you have this missions, the patrolmissions would be do much more fun and I had a reason to explore this world. [b]The Story[/b] ................................................................................................................................ We all saw the Trailers, saw pieces of the story, we don't even get mentioned in the final game. The whole story was more like an bad introduction to the several enemies in the world. We have NPC's who could explain us some of the things of this world. The could, but they don't (Speaker i look at you) If you had to give us a game with so much missions as content, why you just give us Earth and Moonwith each 2 major locations and make an epic story about fighting against the Fallen and the Hive? Later in other DLC you can introduce the Vex and Cabal with there own storyline. After playing this game so long, I haven't any clue whats the motivation of each of the parties. Where did they come from? Whats there inner social structure (Fallen have several Houses, but what are those Houses?) This is explained in a few words at the grimoire cards. A thing you unlock in the game and can't enter through the game! Why can't the game explain me, whats an Vex or an Fallen? We just get the information: It's evil, shoot it. Sad. The worst is, we are from begin to end strangers to this world. And the fact, that this story hasn't any dramtargic approach. It just stopped in at the exposition. Your not entirely through, You stuck somewhere between it. [b]Serverconnection[/b] ................................................................................................................................ We are in weeks 3 after release. I still don't trust the connection. Have still connection losses. This kicks me from nightfallstrikes in the same frequenzy as in patrolmissions or daily heroic misssions. [b]Matchmaking[/b] ................................................................................................................................ Nightfall / heroic / Raid has still no Matchmaking. Ok I'am full with you with the Raid, but Nightfall and heroic should be with MM. I don't want to spam my Friendlist everytime again to search 2 other guys who have time to a specific time to play this with me (again, I don't play this solo cause of the shitty connection). [b][u]Judging[/u][/b] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ In his current state i give this game a 56/100 Multiplayer 4/10 Story 2/10 Gameplay 8/10 Graphic 8/10 Sound 8/10 I don't go in actual gameplay, sound and graphic. Just so much. There are enough places to glitch under the map / farm mobs (lootcave). Also there are moments, the music outruns the actual game: And sometimes you find some low rez textures / textures which didn't load fast. So here you have my opinion about the game. not a zero, but not even a game worth to be called a blockbuster. Not yet. Edit: Alot of poeple give this Post likes. But, because some guys said, i should post it int he feedback area, I opened up a new Thread http://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/70918429/0/0/1 would be nice, if you could comment and like it there so bungie see this in the end.
