  • For Destiny 2 please make it so that in Vault of glass you can team up with random people and be able to speak to them....

  • Thank you RNGesus for your blessing in the Hard Raid. Even if I don´t use ARs you brought me Hardlight, Suros Regime and Atheons Epilogue in one Run. I know it´s not the best but the Hardlight looks very cool that´s why I will max it. And thank you for the Raid Helmet with better Stats! Praise RNGesus!!!

  • "To enjoy more of the game pay a small fee to add 1 out of 3 pieces lol so is the next dlc the last one? If you paid 90 dollars I guess you got the full game. If you just brought the game you got the starter kit. Watch when this dlc drops, new issues will arise like you can't play with people who have the dlc lol a whole thing. Also why would anyone want trading inthis game ? I know people have jobs but come on in a mmo you think you can do 3 hours of work and get everything ? No mmo/RPGs reward grinding for hours lifelessly like no sleeping, no family, you eat snacks and Rot away slowly. If you wanted a casual experience borderlands is right up your alley. I'm just conflicted about destiny I loved it but now it's getting boring, hopefully destiny 2 is better.

  • Bungie is just a big disapointment .. Carnt even believe how money thirsty they are making us buy everything to do with destiny even tho they said its an up dating game . If they gave us most of the content they would become more popula and get more people to buy the game but because they didnt there losing so many supporters just because thry want more money even tho if they did give it to us more people would buy the game and they would probs make even more then what they do now.

    • Oh reading the comments section is like reading the lines in a movie script when the good guy and bad guy meet up and just decided to have a chit chat before the final slow-motion battle. Here's what I think. Stop. Simple right? Stop posting negative comments and stop responding to negative comments. It will solve a lot of problems. Maybe not in the game but at least the people who suggest things that should be fixed can actually be heard. Think about it. If people could get there ideas out and not have them drowned in the whole " I hate bungie" and " I want a blamidy trade system" it would make the process look and feel a lot quicker. For those of you who are complaining and with a good job I hope you understand this. Say the community is the boss of a company and bungie is a worker. You wanted him to build a skyscraper. A perfect building with everything from silk curtains to diamond toilet seats. After about a month you check his progress. You are outraged! After a month, 30 days, he only managed to build the skeleton! From that point on you hit him with every insult known to man. You keep yelling at the poor man until he made two floors. While you talk business he takes a brake to look at what he has done. Routine check up. He hits the closest chair to listen to any ideas from other workers. Out of nowhere you start yelling. He got the paint color for the iron banner wrong. From that point on, the worker has revived nothing but insults and pay cuts from you. Phew! That was a lot of reading. If you made it this far, congrats! Now it's question time. After the boss yells at the worker, how fast do you think the worker would work on the project after only receiving nothing but hate and resentment? For those out there with jobs you might know what I'm talking about. For those who don't, it is simple. The project was reduced to a snail like pace. It's simple but so elegant. Stop. That's the only thing you must do to get the project running again. Of course I'm not forcing anyone to. I'm just saying, if you are going to be rude or include anything rude in your " suggestions" then stop typing and go back to whatever it was you doing, but don't feel like you have too. I'm just saying my opinion.

      • We all understand that most people are complaining about the game...and for good reason. I REALLY DON'T want to hate on the game, but I would be lying if I wasn't. In my opinion bungie did a good job making a game, but the problem is that's it. Bungie...seriously guys in this day and age it is embarrassing to make a game so terrible. Sure it had many new features and elements never seen before but this game does not outshine anything, AND it has way too many problems. Bungie you need to address your fans, and if anything, CAN YOU TELL ME WHY THE HECK THE CAMPAIGN DIDN'T MAKE ANY SENSE AT ALL???

        • Dear Bungie, please read this: Destiny is amazing from top to bottom. Despite a limited amount of content and repeating the same missions/strikes over and over, the game is great. But there is only so much repetition people can handle. The DLC that is soon to be released will only temporarily relieve the pain of repetitive gameplay. The only solution to this problem is to focus on making the crucible an alternative to the story, strikes and raids. As it is right now, the crucible is about 20% great and 80% awful. There is clear potential however for it to be 100% great. That is why it is so frustrating. These are my thoughts: [u]Why the Crucible is Awful[/u] The absolute biggest problem with the crucible is that a person's ability to accurately shoot a primary weapon plays a minute role in the game. Why? Well the answer is quite simple really. EVERYONE SPAWNS WITH LOADED SPECIAL WEAPONS. In about 90% of the crucible that i have played, i have been killed with nothing but fusion rifles, shotguns, and sniper rifles. Very, very rarely do people actually rely on their "primary" weapon when participating in the crucible. Instead, they do 1 of 3 things: (1) sit behind a corner and pop in and out with fusion rifle to get a one shot kill, (2) camp or charge like an idiot with a shotgun, or (3) camp way back in a corner with a sniper. The problems with this are clear so i wont dwell any longer on them. The next biggest issue is that an overwhelming majority of the bounties promote individual achievements. There are way too many instances where people are attempting to achieve a bounty and completely ignoring whether the teams wins or loses. I admit to it myself. If I want to level a weapon or piece of armor, then why not jump into the crucible to camp in a corner to get 15 headshots with a sniper, or wound someone only to purposely die and throw a nade in the hopes of getting a post mortem medal. All the while I am just screwing my teammates who trying to win the game. Again, the problems are clear so i wont dwell on this any longer. Another problem is the diversification of maps and players on each team. First Light and Bastion are too big for plain 6v6 and promote nothing but camping with your already loaded sniper (or sniper that regenerates ammo). Even in the control playlist, most people just camp and do nothing to capture a territory. Those maps are built great for 8v8. There are also other maps that should handle 8v8 nicely. Further, some of the better maps in the game are limited to the 3v3 playlists. This sort of poor mixture creates a frustrating experience. There are additional problems with the crucible and networking experience that have been talked about a lot and are currently being addressed. For instance not being able to communicate with other players and continuously being kicked to orbit. No need to harp on them, but thought they were with a mention. [u]Iron Banner is Not the Solution[/u] Despite all the hoopla about the Iron Banner, it is not the solution and will not solve any of the problems identified above. Although the Iron Banner is a great limited time event, it still carries with it the same crucible elements that cause so much frustration. I have no problem with the idea and concept of the Iron Banner, but please do not rely on it to be the solution that gets people involved in the crucible. [u]The Solutions[/u] Solving the problems that plague the crucible and creating an enjoyable experience for all is actually very simple. First and foremost there needs to a playlist that limits or diminishes the use of special weapons. My recommendation would be simply to spawn everyone with no special ammo and make the special ammo crates similar to heavy weapon ammo but without the announcements. This would make a drastic and immediate difference for the better. Further, there needs to be a limit on the amount of people who can obtain special weapon ammo. Teamwork and gameplay would be significantly better if only one or (maybe, just maybe) two people on the team could carry special ammo (the same could be said about heavy ammo). I have never heard of an FPS that everyone could carry special weapon ammo at the same time, and that is what destiny is at the moment. This new playlist would be a permanent addition to the crucible experience. In fact, you could leave the crucible just the way it is, but only add 1 or 2 playlists of this type. It would have the feel of social verse hardcore experience. It would be great if the playlist was 4v4 and the ridiculously large maps were removed. Adding some of the smaller maps would also be a great idea. Further, either remove the individualized bounties from this playlist or create separate bounties that are specific to the playlist and promote winning. This would make players focused on winning. If they want post mortem medals or sniper headshots then they can go to the social or standard type crucible playlists. I believe the very minor recommendation listed above would prove to be a major beneficial change to crucible experience. Please consider them seriously. Some other changes that i believe are worth considering include: Symmetrical maps A playlist that does not allow people to use super abilities An objective playlist that incorporates gametypes similar to capture the flag, plant the bomb, hold the ball, and king of the hill. (they don't need to be called that or play exactly like the standard gametypes, but you get my point.) Thank you for reading.

            Don't cheapen the story telling experience, by dumbing-down story missions to a bounty-chain format. It sounds like all the cool cut-scenes we are used to are no more.

            Bungie and Activision should watch this and take Joe's advice and critic to heart and release the content that they promised us from the beginning. Without ripping us off and charging us for content that already exists in the CD. They should also address every single fault that they have in this game every fault that Joe stated in this video, every fault should be addressed by Bungie and Activision! I ONLY HOPE THAT BUNGIE DOES THE SAME THING GEARBOX DID WITH BORDERLANDS AND BORDERLANDS 2. THEY MADE A SHITTY GAME AT FIRST AND DID ALL THE RIGHT THINGS ON THE SECOND GAME THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN DONE ON THE FIRST! BUT BUNGIE HAD YEARS AND A WHOPPING $500,000,000 TO GET IT RIGHT THE FIRST TIME!

          • I think Bungie should just make a video that explains the entire story and from this dlc content and so on, give cut scenes that makes you want to play the story and makes sense. Patches needs to be fixed much faster. The pumpkins were a nice touch but honestly, it wasn't necessary with the amount of other things you can be doing to improve the game besides momentary (literally moment) entertainment with the pumpkins. I enjoy the game, but at the same time it's boring to me. I was expecting this game to have some elements like Mass Effect, Borderlands, Halo, and ect. Which it does but doesn't, this isn't what I expected when they said big open universe. 10 yr plan, I seriously doubt this game will last ten yrs, especially if you're making a Destiny 2 before then because ppl will just hop to that one if it looks promising and I'm sure fans will hop to other games before even 3 let alone 5 if you're lucky. You didn't reset the bar for multiplier games, which is why competition will be easy to beat you at this point so this dlc will have to for sure compensate. I honestly think this first dlc should be free anyway because the game wasnt even double the beta really. The dlc allows you to go 2 more levels up -_- really? 5 or ten would be more appropriate but then again ppl will have to play the same shit over and over to get to those levels which would irritate them. There are so many other things that can be done to this game but wasn't, even having only 3 classes, I feel like 5 or even 4 would be more appropriate. The enemies feel like halo to me lol, like there's nothing unique about them as far as how they react, it's the same. Honestly, my expectations were different for this game to me. I seriously feel like some elements of Mass Effect with space like game has some gook takeaways and feedback that this game could of added to this arsenal.

            • I wonder if Bungie will stop lying about the game and ripping us off and actually listen to people. Based on these updates, I highly doubt it.

            • "For example, one Quest creates a continuous chain of multiple tasks that culminates in the “Will of Crota” Strike. Another may simply ask you to return to Earth to take down the surging Hive threat." I thought we made it completely clear we no longer want anything like queen's wrath. the -blam!- is this? come on, bungie. get your head out of your asses.

              • Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare is the shit! Sucks to be you right now bungie. We all told you it would happen if you didn't do something about your game. Now say bye-bye to a big percentage of the players until the DLC gets here. If it ever does.

                • So... How are those exotics buffs coming along? Kind of just waiting for them. Don't mind me. Enjoying the game is becoming more difficult with every broken and pointless patch. Stop giving us pumpkins and start giving your community a reason to like this game, ( i enjoy this game but apparently i am a rare beast on this forum.)

                    • Instead of patching things that are helpful like Atheon's random teleport, fix REAL problems like when the portal doesn't let you leave, Atheon only teleports 2 people, or when Bad Juju's String of Curses doesn't work on Harpies.

                    • I'd buy the DLC if it wasn't for the fact that I'll be missing out on a good portion of it for nearly a year. Well, at least Halo 2 Anniversary will be out soon enough. I can be back at the time Bungie wasn't acting stupid.

                        • As a skilled player who's completed the Raid a lot(both normal and hard),3 level 30 characters, and just about every weapon this game has to offer right now, I find myself only upset on one little thing.. I love almost everything about this game except for when you find yourself about to kill the final boss and then poof one person teleports to either the jungle or the desert, leaving his five buddies left outside staring at a boss pointing to the heavens. He's not making a sound because he already knows he's won and it's only a matter of time until that lone teleported guardian fails to destroy the Oracles by himself and everyone dies.. Now this would be acceptable if it happens once every full moon but I see it happening all the time in the raid.. Sometimes one person goes and sometimes five people teleport, or two, etc.. (Bungie) can we please figure this out and fix this quickly.. Or perhaps go back to when the teleporting wasn't random. I firmly believe that if something isn't broke then you shouldn't try to fix it. I know knocking off the boss with grenades is cheap and needed to be fixed, but was it really so bad teleporting half the guardian team predictably? Come on now let's fix this! Thank you for a mostly great game!

                        • I am very upset at the amount of money we are going to have to spend in one year for the content of a Destiny. Why should we spend (at the current rate) approx.$180 without any limited edition stuff for enough story to call it a game. Come On Bungie/Activision...the COD amount is just for the new maps and some guns camos and skins. Now 'If We're Lucky' we can get Legendary Raid Gear...Exotics are cool but you can only wear one at a time. This character progression sucks. Give us more ways to either Earn the things we need to level up gear or at least be able to sell the huge amounts of Hadronic Essence and Weapons Parts...both up in the 500+ range. I am in love with the game...but really...do we have to spend THAT much for only three months worth of DLC. Season passes (1 Year) have been as much as you guys are asking for three months! Tc.
